Merrimack Landing

I agree 100% with 'Good Value'. The price is better than almost any apartment in the area, but unlike most of the cheaper apartments, it is safe and clean. The neighbors are pretty friendly, and the area of the complex I live in has given me absolutely no cause to worry. A lot of military men and women seem to live here, and the rest appear to be young professionals/students.

There ARE a lack of outlets, and the appliances are pretty dated- there is no garbage disposal/dishwasher in some units… , and the fridge is... at least ten years old. All of it works well, however. The space is really, really good for the price. They spray weekly during the summer for bugs, although I have noticed a few (mostly june bugs) still get in. The on-site laundry facility is nice, but similarly dated. There are several playgrounds for kids, and some built-in dog walking areas (complete with complimentary bags and receptacles).

When we first moved in we were told that it was acceptable- and encouraged, apparently- to make the place our own (i.e. painting walls, hanging/mounting electronics, changing fixtures, so long as the original items were kept or returned at the end of the lease). Nia, the agent we worked with, was super helpful and went above and beyond helping us. Maintenance was prompt and very friendly the only time we had an issue. Read More

You get what you pay for but you really can't beat the price and proximity to the Naval base. The kitchen needs updating and lacks a garbage disposal and microwave. There are very few electrical outlets and no cable outlet in the bedroom, as should be expected with an apartment built in 1941. Other than that, the apartment Staff is friendly and helpful and were very accommodating when I needed to extend my move-in date. The on-site laundry facility is nice.

I just moved in on August 28, 2015 and I'm disgusted that they have roaches running all over the apartment. I've never had to deal with them living in any apartment. I'm breaking my lease and finding a roach free apartment.

I was impressed with the apartment when I rented. It is a single bedroom apartment, it has ample amount of room. I actually fit my king size bed in the bedroom and still have more than walking around room. It is great for military. Located right outside the gate. It takes less then a couple minuets to get on base. Which in Norfolk is half the battle of getting to work. The apartment is great and the location. Parking is not the greatest. I feel they could improve on that area. Besides… that I love this place. Read More
