Bed bugs are the main concern
Multiple residents and families describe bed bugs as a serious, ongoing problem.
A large share of the negative feedback centers on bed bug infestations, with residents and families describing bites, furniture in common areas, and ongoing trouble despite claims that it was clean. Several reviews also describe families feeling the response is inadequate, including concerns about notification and treatment. While some other reviewers say there were no bed bugs during their stay, the recurring bed bug reports are the most consistent red flag in the review set.
