              The Palmer has friendly staff, is a clean and modern building, there's a beautiful lobby, plus the rent is a competitive price. I feel very comfortable with my decision to live here; so comfortable that my mom chose to sign a lease as well.

                My experience has been mixed, largely because of having been assigned the wrong apartment (resolved three days before my move), and because there is virtually no information about how things work for the new tenant. The new manager seems willing to consider this.

                    This has been a fine place to live. You need a car to live here as there is very little commerce in walking distance but there are many nice streets for walks. The grounds are lovely and the apartment is comfortable.

Our office is open seven days a week, and I'd be happy to look into ways to lessen the burden of the central AC issue.
