25 East Apartamentos

This is the worst place to live near campus. Apart from the property and units being disgusting and overpriced, you also have to deal with rude students as staff that appear to have little to no professional training. Be sure to get everything in writing if you choose to rent here.

I moved here because the bus is convenient and it’s the cheapest rent I could find. They have a pool, a gym, do events, and their show apartment looks nice. However, actually living here is awful. Upon move in absolutely nothing in the apartment had been cleaned and there was mold under the sink and behind the toilet. Both our washer and our dryer are broken and our toilet has been leaking since move in. We have put in numerous maintenance requests and a MONTH later our toilet has finally been... fixed. We still don’t have a functional washer or dryer. We’ve emailed the property manager, the leasing office, and the property company and have received ZERO communication back. Please, just pay a bit more and live somewhere that actually cares. Lee mas

The day my daughter moved in, the apartment was filthy and had zero maintenance since the prior tenants moved out. The table and chairs were broken, and there were still personal bathroom items remaining from former tenants. So, from the very first day, they were in breach of their leasing agreement. They pulled a crew together quickly to at least bring the apartment to a less disgusting standard and my daughter moved in. Oh, and the first “month’s” rent is basically them charging for an... entire month when my daughter was only there a week of that month. So, while they “waive” fees and advertise a monthly payment, it is all just a ruse … they get it by charging the tenants for 3 weeks that they don’t even live there. While the manager was nice, she could not speak to specifics of the lease and I heard a lot of “well I know it says that, but that is not what we do.” Crazy. So many consumer protection issues … but that will be for another day. Now, my daughter, who is a student at MSU, has been without internet for 2 days. I can’t get anyone to answer the phone to discuss yet another breach on their end of the lease agreement. All I will say is that you get what you pay for …. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Their inability to have internet now places my daughter in a position where she has to be on campus to do school work she should have been able to do at the apartment, and ride the bus back to her apartment after dark. Also, don’t count on being able to reach anyone by cell phone while they live at 25 East … cell reception is bad .. . I genuinely fear for her safety at this place — particularly when they removed the security lock from the door of her building so that anyone can get in. The apartment that they show you is not at all what you get. I could go on and on …. Lee mas

Apartment stuff here are the nicest people that I know. They are always here to support and help you with problems. Apartments are not expensive as well, and weekly activities are interesting too

Since before my time as a resident, I always enjoyed spending time with my friends at 25 East! The staff is so friendly and welcoming, they were a ton of help during my process of signing my lease and moving in. I recommend 25 East to all my friends and I look forward to living here another year!
