Avalon Square Apartments: Not so bad. (Recommending!)

2008-10-03T15:24:47-06:00

From brad46: I've had a decent experience here. It's not the new, luxurious/expensive place like down the street, but no one ever represented that it was. Location is great, and they are working on improvements (paint, roof, etc.).Why are these complaints anonymous? If they're valid, how can anything be done to correct ...
