Apartments are awesome

Tanya is the best and was very quick to help me when I accidentally locked myself out. The apartments are very spacious and this place has the best staff working for them. Wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.… See More >

    Nice apartment, comes with one frustration after the next

    I originally chose The Oaks because of its close proximity to UConn, but the time I save on my commute is spent dealing with the frustratingly unprofessional people that work the office. The apartment itself is quite nice, the kitchen countertops are granite which is… See More >

        Management does NOT assist in regards to constant, loud obnoxious noise from other tenants nd talking with them is pointless. The burden and discomfort is all your own. Apparently, playing sports allows you to be rude, inconsiderate and not accountable for your actions in this… See More >

          Probably one of the most frustrating experiences of my life. I say frustrating because this has the potential to be one of the best places to live as a UConn student, but it falls short. The apartments are in a great location as they are… See More >

            Please do not live here. I was a Senior at UConn when I lived here and the proximity to campus and apartment and amenities is lovely but the price far exceeds any other apartments in the area. Additionally, they put fake fees on my move… See More >

              So now that COVID-19 has caused The Oaks on the Square to quarantine for 14 days, how will this effect the community of Storrs? Is there anyone actually providing service to the students that are "trapped" in the apartments or are we all to be… See More >

                The staff is uneducated. They were better off hiring geese with their necks cut off. The management will not do anything about noise complaints, especially if they are recurring issues. They basically just shrug their shoulders. Also INCREDIBLY over priced for NO REASON.

                  The oaks is the worst place to live as a college student. My Wi-Fi is always out so I can never do my homework or I can never work for my job, my sink and shower in the bathroom are always clogged and the maintenance… See More >

                    there are 2 main problems with the oaks right now. The first is that the price of my rent goes up every year, which mind you its already a ridiculous price because they know they can charge whatever they want and theyll always have people.… See More >

                      The apartments are very nice. It's a great location for college students since its essentially on the Uconn campus. The management was fairly easy to work with and they were friendly to work with. The community itself is pretty quiet for the most part, but… See More >
