The Austin at Midtown

mold on the walls, no ventilation, paper thin walls, and not updated apartments. The age is really starting to show here and the rent just keeps going up with no updates. It doesn't make since.
I really like the location and how the apartment looks. Great natural light and spacious kitchen. But raising the rent every year does not make since to me...

There is mold, loud doors and neighbors can be heard doing everything from slamming the toilet seat to opening and closing their doors. Conversations can be heard from other tenants while they are in their units due to paper thin walls, why even have them up? We practically all live together. The truth is it’s not really the other tenants fault that the walls are so thin, but some of them just don’t have any apartment living training. They walk hard, slam cabinet doors, and you can hear it all.… I finally bought a sound machine. Works wondrous. These apartments are old and rundown. I’m not sure why management keep listing the apartments are updated. Why? Because of the few pieces of stainless steel appliances. Also, there are no buildings to separate dog owners and non dog owners. Sounds like a chorus of horrible dog barking when one gets started you can add two more to that. Rent was raised with no repairs to the apartment. The maintenance that was here is no longer here. I’m not sure who they have doing repairs now. The temp property manager or property staff is clueless and doesn’t resolve anything but numbers. Absolute zero. I lived here for 18 months and coming in my experience was horrible with all of the noise surrounding me. But now I am well and have a sound machine and 3 months left on my lease Read More

I like the area as it is close to work. The area is walkable. There is also public transit. I also like that I have met a new friend since living here as she is also a good neighbor. The apartments are spacious and responsibly priced. I had mixed feelings about moving here because of reviews about noise level and mold. Honestly I keep the apartment I'm renting clean. Noise level in the building I'm in is actually pretty good as I barely here my neighbors, but the building next door there are… loud neighbors and a couple who share my bedroom wall who have no manners. However, I like it here and will honor my year least. Read More
