I have been a tenant of the Kotel's for nearly 7 years and I have nothing but good things to say about them. The Kotels are extremly fair and kind hearted. They want the buisness that rent from them to succeed. During the early days of Covid, I was struggling to pay my rent. Kotel MGMT sent me resources to help me get a grant and a PPP loan. Once I got the money, I worked out a way to pay them what I owed. If it wasn't for their patience and flexibility I wouldn't have been able to get my buisness, out of the hole. I am incredibly gratefull to the Kotels and all they have done for me throughout the years. If you are considering renting with or working with them, go for it! I can't recommend them enough!
