    Love living here at the Bartram - everything is clean, upscale, great location, and quiet

    The Bartram is extremely well kept with a highly professional staff that sets the bar pretty high for any other apartment community in Gainesville. Apartments are top notch and amenities are very good and expansive. Staff is the best thing however - understanding and highly professional
