Signature 3BR 2BA | Open Concept | With Balcony

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was clean, inviting, and in a great location. The beds were very comfortable, and we felt safe with the additional security gate at the unit. The neighbors were quiet, and the apartment was close to plenty of stores and restaurants. Most importantly for us, it was less than 10 minutes from Texas State University, which was perfect since we were in town for a college tour for a potential student. Cindy, our point of contact, was also very responsive and quickly answered any questions we had. We had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!"
