1260 NW 28th ave Gainsville review
The walk way to the property was busted up and dangerous to walk on. the living room furniture had stains .The bathroom tub didn't have any anti-skid and was very slippery. One of the beds was not sitting on the floor evenly. it rocked during your sleep.There was pet hair all around the base boards. There were roaches in the kitchen.
