Smooth

??????????
Living at The Ryden has been a really pleasurable experience. There were some early issues with packages going missing, but since the new system was implemented, everything has been logged and accounted for. It’s clear that management took the concern seriously and made the right improvements.

I especially want to acknowledge Julie, the manager. Her communication, effort, and professionalism have really stood out. She has made sure that residents feel heard and that things run… smoothly. Overall, everything has been on the up and up, and I truly appreciate the care that’s gone into making The Ryden a great place to live

My move in experience at The Ryden was great, especially coming from an early lease break at another apartment I had only moved into a month prior due to issues with that unit. Julie, the onsite manager, was great to work with during that stressful time. Very friendly and communicative especially during a time crunch. The unit was in generally great condition upon move-in and maintenance was quick in addressing any outstanding issues. The apartment finishes are tasteful as well and appliances… are higher quality than most other apartment communities. My only constructive feedback is that I wish the window shades were better at blocking light (bedroom with east-facing windows gets bright early in the morning, needed to invest in light-blocking curtains) and the bathroom sink had a lot of buildup and gunk that needed some extra deep cleaning and unfortunately is still worn down.

Beautiful apartments, but poorly managed building

My husband and I have been living here a total of 3.5 years now. My husband was one of the first tenants. It is not quite a luxury apartment, but it tries to be. The apartment floor plans are open and modern. They’ve recently done some beautiful redecorating of the communal areas.

However, we have had problems with constant noise that keeps us up at night from building fire alarms and unsecured vents several times in the last 12 months. The apartments are managed by Greystar but owned by a… different entity. Because any work done to the building itself requires coordination/approval between the owners and the property management company, maintenance on the building takes a long time. We experienced countless nights of lost sleep and despite desperate emails to management, it took a nightmarish 3 months to get anything fixed. There are some key fob readers that just haven’t worked for a year or more. We only have 2 EV chargers for a building with over 100 parking spots. On the weekends, all the trash bins start overflowing.

All in all, it is a nice place to live most of the time. Day-to-day, minor issues are easy to fix. But whenever there are more larger issues with the building itself, it takes a lot of time and a lil’ grief to get fixed. We hope to move soon.
