Management here is horrible, best bet is to hit the laundry mat until you save enough to buy outright somewhere else.

When I couldn't pay my rental obligations..I was able to tell them my circumstances and they were able to assist me with my needs .They also helped with my account so I was able to keep my items and not lose them. They were very understanding and didn't make me feel like I was just a number but a person .I'm glad they were there for me when I needed them the most..
