One Bedroom Apartment

Hello, I am moving to the area in July and am looking for a one bedroom apartment. I am looking for something that isn’t over 1700. I was looking at the Treehouse Apartments and the Sphere apartments and was wondering if anyone has any experience with these two. I’m also open to any recommendations! Any advice helps!
