RAVE REVIEWS
Loved living here! Great transition from on campus dorms to private units. The staff are kind and helpful. The property manager actually helped me move my bags into my unit when I first got there. He was very helpful in making my transition from out of state a lot easier, and less scary.
Great! Truly Amazing! I’ve been a resident here for almost 2 years. Never had a complaint. The staff is professional, and very courteous.
These guys are great! They go the extra mile to accommodate you and their team is very kind… It’s also very secure- perfect for the visiting student! You’ll also meet nice and interesting people from around the world here.
