I called to ask a few questions about apartment availability and was asked quite rudely "What do you want?" How about a website with more information, and not a rude, nasty security guard answering your phones? What a shame....

Today as of 02/25/21, I called this location to find out about inquiries for a 1 bdr. Apt. I talked to Mr. Bradley which introduced his self as “Security “. I told him that I wanted to talked to the office personnel in charge. He was extremely rude & unprofessional. However, I kept “my cool” during the whole conversation. Let me tell you, that people like him should not exercised certain profession. 👎👎
