From the first moment in the presentation of the apartment, Curtis was very patient, answered all questions and was very helpful. Process without bureaucracy, fast and reliable. Living in Camelot Suites has been really good. The management team is very professional, always friendly and open to answering questions or requests. It's a great place to live!
