Longview Place: Mismanaged Apartment (Not Recommending)

2008-12-29T13:41:43-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Unfortunately, I can not give Longview any sort of recommendation. Although the "luxury" apartments were adequate for the price, the management of the complex was atrocious.

2007-09-13T17:40:51-06:00

From -Anonymous-: When we first moved in one of my first and foremost concerns was if Longview Place housed undergrads.
