Aspire Huntington Station

If you’re considering moving into this building, here’s what I wish I had known beforehand. Even on the highest floor, if your unit faces the front of the building, you will hear everything.. and I truly mean everything. Trash days eliminate any need for an alarm clock because the noise is unavoidable. Windows aren’t sound proof at all.

There are unnecessary, mandatory fees, such as the trash concierge service (which you’ll hear throughout the hallways late in the evening), despite there being... trash chutes on every floor(which are often overflowing even with this “mandatory” system). Management could easily make this service optional since they provide a specific trash bin for it, making it simple to identify who opts in or out. I was told I would have the option to opt out, then when I followed up I was told I couldn’t. Resident leave their foul smelling garbage in the hallway even if they are arms reach away from the trash chute. But hey who can blame them when they’re being charged, right?

There have also been security concerns in the building. Management instructs residents to contact the “courtesy officers,” but I as well as neighbors have tried calling the provided number and haven’t received any response. I even had someone in the leasing office call the number and they also didn’t get a response. Random people enter the building and most recently one entered the car garage and broke into vehicles.

The package room isn’t as secure as it should be. Anyone with key fob can go in. Packages are stolen all the time.

The same gym equipment was broken for over a year (most of my lease term). The walls are extremely thin, and I can hear my downstairs neighbor coughing. There isn’t a single day you won’t hear dogs barking somewhere in the building.

Also THE INTERNET there have been several internet outages during the work week making it very inconvenient when working from home.

When I first moved in, the apartment had not been properly cleaned. There was construction debris and nails left throughout the unit, including on the balcony, in drawers, and on the windowsill.

While the management company and front office are pleasant during the leasing process, they become petty and unhelpful once you actually need assistance. Lee mas

I think the apartment complex, as a whole, is a good and quality option. The staff is very helpful, respectful, and friendly. I have only had one incident where I needed maintenance and the gentleman answered so quickly, within 24 hours, and fixed my issue with ease. The parking is ok as we park in a garage and there are plenty of spaces. However, some of the residents have pets and most of them NEVER clean up after their pets. The small park behind the building smells like dog excrement because... the residents do not pick up the droppings. There is a walkway by building 5921 that leads to the metro that is full of dog poop. The walkway behind building 5919 also is full of poop because the residents do not pick up their dog's poop. This is concerning when walking outside at night and stepping in droppings or walking your dog who tracks these dog poop into the building. Another issue is that the second building has only one entrance to the building and the staff locked the stairwell in the garage so there is no way to walk up the stairs and get to either floor. Additionally, there is only one elevator in building 5921. Just a week ago, the elevator was out of order and residents could not get to their apartments other than when they drive into the parking garage because the stairwell is locked and there is no key fob device to unlock it. Overall, I would rate this place as a 2.5/5 based on the issues I listed. They may seem minute until you actually have to live with the inconvenience of using one door and elevator while the main building has at least three elevators and numerous (4-5) doors. Considering that this is a "luxury" apartment community, these issues do not make the massive rental price worth it. Lee mas

I came to tour with my Niece last week. This place is beautiful. Kevin and Jennifer were very helpful and My niece decided to rent an apartment on the top floor. The view from her apartment is amazing and there are endless amenities. We played Ms. PAC Man for a while in their sports and game room. Haha! I also thought it was nice that they keep towels in their fitness center for the residents. When my lease ends in August I also plan to lease here!
