This facility is great. The gentleman named Johnny is AWESOME! I had an issue with a rental for my senior citizen mom, so I called to see what we could do about the issue.
He went that extra mile, called me back the next day with a solution that helped my mom. Thank you so very much. The units are very clean as well. Thank you Johnny, Happy New Year.
