Not recent, but we lived there when Isabelle rolled through and knocked power out to the entire region... Except Kensington Place.

Any recent reviews of Kensington Place Apartments?

Has anyone lived here recently? I'm considering signing a lease and moving in with my cat, but want to know if anyone has had any issues with maintenance, mold, or the building in general.
