Check Out Ivy Towne

The management at Ivy Towne is excellent, if an appliance is malfunctioning or a sink leaking, they are always here within a few hours, and while they were here they would always check other things like: A/C filters or smoke alarms and one guy actually replaced some burnt out light bulbs! The apartments looks rundown on the outside, however the inside is very clean and spacious. The management realizes that the appliances are old, so when something doesn?t work they just replace it instead of fixing it. The parking can be hectic, but this is Davis. The train horn will cause you to soil your sheets at least once the first week, but you will become accustomed to the trains after a week, I do not even hear them anymore. I have yet to see a bug in my apt. (I?ve been here 1 year) They allow pets but I have never seen or heard any humping cats or barking dogs, nor have I stepped in any ?doggie gifts?. I have however been awakened by barfing neighbors twice, but again this is Davis. The neighbors tend to keep to themselves and surprisingly not too many parties just an occasional bout of polka music from down at the end. I also have never had any security problems. The rent is extremely cheap for the space and I like the layout of the apartments themselves(not the complex).The place is very quiet except when they groom the grounds, which seems to be unnecessary many of the times. If it is possable to overgroom, Ivy Towne does it. The poor, limbless trees and perfectly square shrubs. Free hot water which everyone pulls from, however there is always plenty and it is HOT no matter what time of day. This place is not the lap of luxury but is overall a great place to live for the price. Check it out!
