Resident 2011 - 2014

9/19/2014

The staff at Royal Arms are its crowning feature. The apartments themselves are quite dated, and if you have any health concerns, I wouldn't recommend it because of the warnings given about lead paint upon first moving. Despite the facilities' age, you can tell that the management has given their best attention to their upkeep. The appliances are also old and, although it's wonderful to have a dishwasher, about half of the load of dishes will remain scummy. To be fair though, I believe we have only lived in the UN-renovated buildings, but at least one renovated building exists in the complex, so I expect those tenants have far few complaints to this end. The laundry facilities are next to the office, but the washers and dryers are old and there are usually at least a few that are not working- NEVER try doing laundry there on a Sunday evening. The few washers and dryers available fill up quickly during peak times. It's not uncommon to have to pay for multiple drying cycles because they don't work well. As I said, the staff at their office is always respectful and very warm and friendly- you can tell that they place a high value on resident satisfaction. The maintenance staff are good honest fellas that always follow through in a timely manner. The grounds are beautiful- especially the tree-lined entrance to the apartment complex. May retirees choose to live here and WKU students and small families are a common sight too. Overall noise was not a problem for us., besides the helicopter that flies directly overhead to the hospital next-door. It feels like a safe community and there is an air of neighborliness that is priceless when it comes to life as a renter. Location is perfect- close to downtown and campus and the 31-W bypass. It's basically 15 minutes' drive from all the outer reaches of the city of BG, so it's centrally located. We have been very satisfied with our choice to call it home.
