Oct 24, 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Apex review Apex was a disappointing rental property. It was dirty, very dated, many things broken or in need of repair, it was full of flies, a mouse trap was on the kitchen cabinet when we checked in and a roach was at the front door. It also had a strong cleaning fluid odor upon check in. The location was good, the beds were ok, but the place was so unappealing we left early. ##### beverly b.
