Hornet Commons Student Housing

Hornet Commons has so many fun events and ways to meet new people. The gym is huge, and it is nice when the school gym is too busy. We are on campus, which is so nice to be able to get to class! I really want to go to more of the events to meet new people!

Also, there is a bagel shop right in the middle, and it is so good! I like to get my food and then walk to class!

Overall, really fun place to live!

Honestly I actually love living here. But recently my package was somehow “lost” in the mail room. And I have all the recipients and proof that my package was mailed here even a confirmation email from the hornet commons. I was still dismissed from the RA’s working saying I had picked up this package. But when my mom calls to ask them about it, my package was found. If I could give the manager Taylor a separate review I would 5/5!! She gets things done and figures out the root of the... problem/issue instead of dismissing the residents. She apologized and told me that they labeled the package to the wrong building. Read More

Don’t let the social media page fool you, it’s not as great as it looks. They say they want feedback from residents however the staff and management is extremely rude when approached with any complaints or questions. Parking situation is horrible. There are not enough spots for all residents so good luck finding a spot after 7pm, and there is no guest parking. Also they have us moving out on the last day of school and we must be out before noon. So we have to spend all of finals week packing:)... We couldn’t even have the weekend?
ps: We want the hammocks back:( Read More

The parking lot is so small, it does not have enough spots for all of the residents and finding parking is next to impossible. I have my parking pass, I work full-time and get home at around 11:30 PM, so when I get home and there’s no spots I have to be parked in staff parking which is ALWAYS empty. My car was towed without me knowing. There is a number on the parking pass that is attached to my unit and no one ever let me know that I was not supposed to be in that spot or to move or that they... were towing it. We then later called the office to see how we can avoid this issue in the future. They said we were supposed to have been given our RA’s phone number when we moved in, that never happened, and to call them when I am unable to find a parking space. So tonight I did just that, the solution they offered me was to call the tow company myself and find a car that did not have a parking permit and have them towed myself. When I told my parents this information they were obviously upset and they called the RAs themselves. Their whole demeanor changed and they decided that they were going to look for a spot for me. They were able to find a spot however there’s a part of the parking lot that is facing the street where a group of homeless people reside and is very unsafe. Mind you, in the time I’ve been here there as been a literal police chase and someone was jumped in the parking lot. The people in the office are completely ignorant and nonchalant and I’ve had numerous problems with them before the parking incident. I do not recommend this complex to any student. Read More

Definitely do not recommend!!

Offer incentives to renew lease and then continually make excuses when asked when to expect the item as promised.
Advertise that a benefit of renewing lease means you stay in your same room and don’t have to pack anything up and then later say, oh only if you do this one certain lease—that doesn’t apply to all of them. Nuisance notices and warnings about insignificant issues.
No overnight guest parking.
They had residents park in adjacent lot for spring move in... day and didn’t make arrangements with the school so all those residents got a parking ticket for parking overnight (as they were requested to do!!)
They refuse to check license plates for registered resident vehicles and instead tow without warning (even when parking permit is on the dash where it fell instead of hanging).
Apartments look nice but drawers and cabinets are largely unusable. Kitchen upper cabinets look nice but not practical. You cannot reach more than the lower shelf without a large step stool. Kitchen sink is totally inappropriate for a kitchen. It is more a shallow bar sink and makes it difficult to wash larger pans.
Staff continually remind you that “it’s a learning process” for them however they don’t give any grace to residents in the same manner. Staff is extremely inconsistent with responses and many times outright rude.
All of these issues have been raised to Management and they do not address any of the issues but instead just try to deflect.
Multiple residents are raising these issues and management has shown they are not interested in making any adjustments or changes to promote a better living environment. Read More
