They did not honor our group rate even though there were 50 of us. I asked the manager for the TOTAL for how much opening up the second bedroom would be, and she told me the rate for only one night. when i repeated it back to her, she confirmed. if i had known it was not the total i would never have booked it. Very unhappy with our treatment at 4am, though the rooms themselves are very decent

Stayed 3 nights with a group of friends and felt like home. Apartments are modern with high end appliances and fixtures. Rooms are spacious and kitchen is fully equipped. The area felt safe and had a small shopping mall just two blocks away. Staff and security were extremely kind and helpful. The pool was under maintenance the week we stayed but otherwise everything was amazing.
