  • Singinginthered
    "Since the other reviews were from apartment renters, and weren't very good, it seems only fair to offer another point of view. I bought my house in this area in 2006 and have been very happy here. Nice neighbors, safe neighborhood, easy access to freeways, decent restaurants and shopping nearby. I think it's a great location for families, good schools (better than most of HISD!), and best of all, you can get a lot of house for your money in this area. Perfect, no, but it has certainly served us well!"
  • Nikki
    "The parking here is terrible. Some nights there are no parking spots available for residents who don't pay extra for covered or garage parking. I have told apartment staff and they do not seem to care. They are also very rude and basically just tell you what you want to here. The apartments are nice and maintenance is good. The grass is kept well and it is clean. The head maintenace man is very nice and really doees a great job. If you want a place to park your car but do not want to pay extra for covered or garage i suggest you look for something else! One night I came home and there wa not a single spot for me to park in the entire complex! I called police on duty and he agreed with me that the parking here SUCKS!!!"
