Such a beautiful venue to host an event. Lauren & Lexi were so easy to work with. Food was great and we didn't run out of items. Highly recommend hosting an event here.

1/5 from Aaron Leonberger
Worst apartment i’ve ever stayed in, always hot, floors creak, neighbors smoke weed constantly, events going on all the time causing noise issues. You can hear everything going on outside, ppl walking, cars driving by, the bar across the street doing karaoke, it’s awful. If it’s hot outside you will b hot, if it’s cold outside you will be cold. There are cockroaches on every level… the elevator is constantly not working and when it does work it’s slow, jolts you around. I wouldn’t let much less recommend this apartment complex to anyone. Maybe the events r OK but living here is worse than renting an apt from satan himself. Not to mention One time we tried getting our lease agreement to purchase a car and that took 2 weeks… currently the AC is out no one is answering maintenance calls. If i tolerate this hole much longer i will be left soulless.

4/5 from Jay Gonzalez
It's an old building that's been repurposed for private events like weddings and parties. They did a nice job. Parking is pretty good as the location has its own lot with easy access. Basement floor has a cool, warm character to it. Very vintage looking.
