DO NOT LIVE HERE

Been having trouble since I moved in 4 months ago. Electrical outlets in my bedroom didn’t work for 2 weeks when I first moved in, A/C was out in March and I was told that they “didn’t start working on A/Cs until it got hot” even though it was 85° in my apartment, told management about leaks in my apartment that never got fixed and now I have this massive hole in my ceiling that I’ve dealt with for 1 (going on 2) weeks.

UPDATE: Ihave been considering updating this review on account of how...
friendly the maintenance guys are. They are really trying but I feel like management is the issue.

I keep submitting maintenance requests but the actual issue isn’t being resolved. I had a leak under my sink and the garbage disposal wasn’t working and maintenance came by. Garbage disposal is working now but we’ve still got a bad leak!

I had a leak in my bathroom, maintenance said it was from the folks upstairs and now my bathroom being soaked is a regular occurrence!

Management even asked me to change or delete my review and yet I still have these issues! Why am I even paying at this point!?

Great option to live and nice staff

While searching for an apartment, the lady I spoke to was very nice and informative. She took the time and gave me all the information I needed. She was knowledgeable and responded to my questions in a timely manner. I was referred to the location by friends who know the area.

roach infested!

only lived here for 6 months and I cannot stress enough how poor these apartments are kept clean. they've marked my pest control requests as completed without spraying, which is shady at best. water turn offs without notification, and the washers and dryers are always broken. would not recommend this complex to ANYONE. unless you like roaches crawling everywhere and your vehicles getting booted for no reason.

Not worth the $

The pool was closed until Sept and then closed again weeks later, on-site laundry has 1 or 2 working machines but the water's constantly off, out bldg has been without water 10 times in the last 6 months (for days at a time). You can find better for the same price if you just look around.

Nope No No Nooooooo

For one, this place doesn’t care about the requests you put in to fix things. I’ve input several requests and no one has showed up, for almost a year. I follow up but just get told to put in another request (???????) Also, the management is so unprofessional, my roommate signed his name off the lease but their name still appears on the lease agreement and they told me he has to to come in to sign his name off even though WE BOTH went to the office to sign his name off. This said friend now lives... half way across the country and is extremely disappointed by this as well as he has to make a trip back to sign his name off AGAIN. Oh! They told me to remove my vehicle off the property or else it will get towed since it stays parked in one spot; I’ve informed them that I work from home and stay home most the time and don’t go out because it was still a pandemic and I feared for my health but they didn’t care and told me to remove my car from their property or else the tow will come and get it. My vehicle is working and nothing is wrong with it. Tags are up to date, insurance is paid, but I just don’t go anywhere. They lock the laundry room even though your still doing your laundry and when you’re not doing laundry, the doors are wide open all night and washers/dryers are broken. They started locking the doors before they put up the sign for the laundry hours! IVE WASTED MONEY ON THIS AND HAD WET CLOTHES SIT IN THE WASHER ALL NIGHT for days until they finally put a sign up! Bugs everywhere, no matter how much I clean and clean and clean, bugs are just everywhere and they won’t do anything about it! I’m moving out, if you can put up with unprofessionalism and filth, then this place is the perfect spot for you!
