Laundry options on-site

Cost feels high for some residents
Some residents feel the pricing or expected increases aren’t worth it.
A couple of reviews raise concerns about value, including comments that rent feels high.

In addition, one review mentions extra costs for utilities and laundry, which can contribute to the overall value hesitation described by residents.
