The Ray Apartments

the ray apartments formally known as paradise gardens (look it up please) is rebranding to shy away from the large amount of negative reviews that are easy accessible online. while construction is finally coming to a close after two years we can call it what it is, putting lipstick on a pig. the exterior may look alright but one step into a hallway and it’s the roach motel. not only is there a major pest problem, the apartments and appliances are outdated as well as the “gym”, the water gets... shut off every other week, parking is scarce and there have been many incidents of vandalism in the structure. the elevator breaks constantly and is sometimes out for a few days at a time. the office management does not take action to make sure this is a decent place to live BUT they sure know how to communicate when rent is due. save yourself the headache and don’t be fooled by the grass and the grills and the benches, ask to see the north laundry room… i could go on and on but i think you get the picture ¯\_(?)_/¯ Lee mas

There is no pool, gym, nor basketball courts. Everything is under construction.

I've been here since 2021, this place has only gotten worst, there's issues EVERYday or every week. When I moved in I didn't like the building but at least there was a pool, basketball court, tennis court, and assigned parking, and a gym. They have taken that all away. NO pool, no gym, (everything is under construction and they closed everything down and they gym keeps getting vandalized..? The parking is a first come and if u get home late there's absolutely no parking left. This building is... priced as if its a nice modern updated condo style apt. but its so old no new appliance, and nothing is remodeled since the 80s. they keep turning off the water due to construction everyday. I'm moving out as soon as I can 2025. Lee mas

The management here is absolutely terrible and even when you pay the $1,000 security deposit they charge a cleaning fee. You can clean all you want and make it look spotless but they continue to take away your money. This is coming from someone who moved a few months ago and got $700 back. Worst place I’ve ever lived at. They don’t care about your safety. I would give this a place 0 stars if I could.

I have only been living here since the beginning of the year and I’m already moving due to poor management and other issues. My roommates tire was stolen in the parking garage and since construction is being done the cameras were off and the thief was never caught. Roaches throughout the hallways and apartment itself even after an exterminator came. Not only that but downstairs neighbors continue to bang on our floor (since we’re on the 3rd floor) and yell for us “being too loud.” Note this is... happening around 2-3 PM in the afternoon… not even late at night. Because of construction the parking lot we pay money for is occupied by the construction equipment which is ridiculous. Would never recommend this apartment building to anyone. Save your money and time and look somewhere else. Lee mas
