Crestview Apartments

I have more con's than pros with living here. I was there from 2018-2022. The property changed owners 3 times and issues where never fixed or shrugged off or took weeks to even have fixed. We had a problem with squirrels in the walls and mice. Doing Laundry was a nightmare machines smelling moldy and or not working. Upon leaving this place it was even worse. Took them weeks to even get an answer regarding the apartment and I had to reach out every single time after being told someone would call... me back. When they did call back they asked me if I was interested in living here. Which was not the call back I expected. The only pro I would have is that it is near the highway and never had issues with parking. Read More

Pros:
-Relatively spacious units.
-Close to West haven downtown and Boston Post Rd.
-There is a laundry room per floor.
-Pool parking available.

Cons:
-This building has a serious mice problem. No matter what you do, they will show up in your apartment and poop all over. In one apartment, they nested in the closet.
-Maintenance is mediocre. You call many times until someone shows up to do a bad job and leave a mess behind.
-Most tenants have annoying dogs that will bark all day long when... their owners are not home. If you are noise sensitive, avoid this place.
- Parking is ample, but strangers park at night and the management is doing nothing about it.
- The application fee is $50. They run two background checks that they do not share with you and negatively affect your credit history for two years.
- Most units do not have hard wood flooring, which allows noise to easily travel from the unit below or above.
- No storage is available.

Overall, the building could become great if the management paid some attention to it and dealt with the issues mentioned above. Read More
