Avoid at all costs!

Very old and run down, overpriced apartments with lots of hidden fees. Poor management, non communicative and rude. Maintenance will enter your apartment without telling you and early in the morning WHILE YOU ARE SLEEPING! They claim to have wifi and central air, but both of them barely work. Lots of loud neighbors, some with domestic issues, police are there all the time. You won't feel safe, will be kept awake by noisy neighbors, and management will not do a single thing. They will also rip… you off when you move out. If you have nail holes in the wall from art/decor they will charge you AND you have to pay to have the carpet professionally shampooed and give them a receipt or they will charge you. Also charged for damage that existed in the apartment when I arrived. Terrible complex and company. They keep raising the rent. Lots of people moving out, there are multiple empty apartments in every building in the complex - nobody wants to live there. They do accept section 8 and don't do credit checks.

Mo money

Overpriced out of date apartments, ours was a 3 bedroom 1 bath that was allegedly newly renovated. All they did was the same basic crap that you do when re-renting any place. They painted some areas, cleaned up and that was mostly it.

The apartment they showed had new cabinets, new appliances ect. This one had nothing new except the fridge The sliding doors had paint all over the glass, the closets were missing the shelving and bars for hanging things, clogged drains, no lighting except the… hallway, dining room, and bathroom but even those didn't all work. A 50's doorbell that didn't work and the peep hole was painted over. So much more

Hi there, Anonymous User, and thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback. We are saddened to hear that you feel you were mislead and unhappy. We strive to ensure that we are clear and provide all the information on our community,… amenities, and any home that someone is interested in. We do make sure that if you are seeing an apartment home that is not the same as you apply to (likely due to it being occupied or not ready to view), the differences in the homes amenities are pointed out and brought to the attention of prospects to ensure there are no surprises on move in day. We would not be able to add any additional electrical, however, each bedroom, and the living room has a light switch that powers one of the nearby outlets. If you are still a current resident with us, please reach out to our office so we can take action on your complaints! We are more than happy to help.

All they want is MONEY!!!

They charge you monthly for EVERYTHING on top of your rent!!! Cable-You have to pay them $50 Water, Garbage, Sewer - You pay them $50 All the new amenities they put in that no one uses - You pay them $70 (Pool hasn't been open in 2 yrs.) There are no washers and driers in the apartments ( total lie)

Waste of your Time and Money

Horrible experience in Life time with a baby and toddler in hand that too in winter we faced sudden soaking of water into 2 of the bedrooms and dining area (Except Hall way to stay everything became messy jus with in couple of Hours)

**No proper response from the maintainace office, Day1 a single worker came in and jus sucked out 100s of Gallons of water from carpets with out any Dryers/ fans being given
*So by end of Day2 the entire Home started foul smelling and finally have to stay OUT… of Home for few dys
**And
ended up being vacating Home due to Unlivable Conditions.

***No proper snow clean ups,No cleaniess all around Laundry. It’s totally not worth of your Money.

Not worth the money!!

They will try to lure you in with cheap specials they run on CL, but when it's time to renew they will raise your rent 3-5%, without even giving you any notice. Also like people have said in other comments the management staff is very rude and does not care about anything you say. They have a lot of empty apartments now because they started letting anyone rent as long as they come up with the cost of moving in. They stay for 4 months then turn into midnight movers.
