"The photos on this unit do not do it justice. I was so happy to walk in and see that the unit was better than the pictures that were posted. The apartment was clean, the bed was super comfortable and there was a welcome kit of paper towels, coffee, tea, laundry detergent and various things that was so thoughtful. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was a game changer. This unit was spectacular. I was so happy to come back to this unit every night after work. After staying here for 2 months,...
