"It was unfortunate that we had heavy rain and the roof leaked. The whole place was damp and the carpet spelt of wet dog. We arrived to a mouse in the kitchen, and the ants moved in overnight. The managers were thoughtful and responsive, however, the place was really not fit for living. Sorry, wasn’t cheap either. All very disappointing."

"Clean rooms with everything you could ask for. Great location comes with a price! The street noise was disturbing as was the slaming doors. Next door, above us and was it someone dropping weights at the gym at 10pm or slamming doors who knows. Bring earplugs if you sleep light"
