I lived in the Marquis apartments for 2.5 years as it seemed to be the best deal in the area. The maintence staff responded quickly and I felt safe there.
My apartment itself was fine, until the air conditioning stopped working last summer. They cut a whole through my apartment wall in my living room through to my bedroom to repair some pipes and left it that way for 3 months. I could hear and smell everything that went on in the apartments directly above and below me due to the opening in our walls. Even when they closed up the hole, they never repainted over it.
The true problem is the electricity. They contract it out and overcharge you beyond belief. I moved out two months before my lease was up and they charged me an electric bill of approx. $70 for my empty apartment. They suggested it was due to the fridge running...which I had unplugged. They took this payment directly out of my security deposit as it was for the last month of my lease.
It is an okay place to live...just be aware of where you are going to get ripped off.
