21 Fitzsimons Apartamentos

This has been a pleasant place to live. After speaking with the property managers, they were able to connect with me existing tenants, whom I ended up rooming with. Rooms are spacious and the kitchen I had was likewise roomy. The leasing office and various community spaces were definitely a plus, always felt comfortable bringing guests in to socialize and linger. Proximity to the campus and the restaurants downstairs were also a benefit. Some areas do demonstrate wear and tear (e.g., lining of... cabinets, dishwasher efficiency) but there seem to be constant renovations (I.e., repainting the hallways, replacing the threshold for entrances). There are also more fees than I’m used to but nothing surprising as long as you read the lease ahead of time. Communication remains a strength, as the office provided timely notices via email regarding construction, policies, etc. This is by no means a perfect place, and this is one of the best places I’ve lived.

Had a hole in my ceiling for 2 years which was never fixed. They just glued a board over the hole. The board fell down multiple times. They only screwed two screws in a square board. What a joke. I paid for a parking spot in the garage. Then they changed the rules and now have reserved spots. So even if you pay for parking it is completely random if you are able to find parking or not. Unless you pay a ton extra to reserve a spot. Half of the spots are not reserved. So if it snowing and there is... no parking, you have to park outside even if there is open unreserved spots. You will get fined and towed otherwise. You're rent is a lie and will be raised an incredible amount each year. Terrible maintenance and the leasing office won't even answer the phone half the time. Elevators are broken a majority of the time. Lee mas

Management, once I let them know I will not renew the least months down the line, made it clear they just want to make money from me. If you get caught with a bad roommate, good luck because management will not help you. They also press crazy moveout charges for things you shouldn't be responsible for (like paint just because you happened to move out a couple years after they last painted).

The other day they entered my apartment without permission. Once you rent, they don't care. The lease terms are ridiculous. Read it carefully!!!!! Also moving out is a nightmare. Come on do better & treat the residents as business partners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you first move in the managers at the leasing office will do whatever it takes to get your business but the moment you decide to move out they are very unpleasant to work with. When we decided to move out we notified the managers and sent an email to give them written notice. In the lease it states that there will be a $150 charge if the apartment is not professionally cleaned. One Saturday my sisters cleaning company helped clean out the entire apartment and the apartment was left... completely spotless. When we spoke to the leasing office the following week they said that we were still going to get charged the $150 regardless of the amount of time and energy spent on cleaning the apartment. I notified the managers that the apartment was professionally cleaned which then Beth proceeded to ask: “did you clean on top of the cabinets and inside the cabinets” answer..yes; “did you move the refrigerator and stove and cleaned behind them” answer..yes. She then proceeded to say in a very condescending tone “well you’ll probably still get charged anyways”.

The apartment was left completely spotless and pictures were taken to prove it. Beware if you are considering living here, it’ll be fine when you move in, but the moment you decide to move out it is just one headache after another. Lee mas
