-------- - If you get to live the buildings near the entrance good for you but if they place you the ones in the back, gtfo. Trust me, the whole thing is just a front, they tour you in the good buildings are sucker you with the price, pool, and gym. If I had known about it, I would gladly sacrifice the pool and gym for some good living conditions. There are about 10 managers and ...Full review of Sterling University Plains

Excellent, LARGE apt for a good price - I lived in these apartments for 2 1/2 years and have no complaints. Overall the apt buildings are fairly quiet compared to the campus town area and are extremely large. The washer and dryer were the best and if you have any problems, maintenance can usually fix them very quickly. The manager, Marty, is also very nice! You can't find anything better for this price! ...Full review of Alpine Manor Apartments

the best place to live - Jim and Lisa are absolutely wonderful! they are always there if you need them and the apartments are very spacious and clean. We have called our apartment home since 2005 and have even welcomed a daughter here. Everyone is quiet and usually ends up staying a few years. The walk in closets are a plus, only downfall is that there is no real dining area. The landlords know your name and ...Full review of Southview Estates

Great place! - These are really nice units. The exterior landscaping is beautiful. The rent seems well worth it for what you get with the apartment. We really enjoyed it. Mary, the property manager was very easy to work with. She's friendly and professional. ...Full review of Somerset Apartments

Best Deal in Ames!! - I have lived at Tall Timber for three years and am staying a fourth! Loree is the best landlord I have ever had. Maintenance issues were always fixed within a day of reporting them, most often within hours! The parking lot is reserved, but there is plenty of street parking for visitors. Rent includes heat, water heating, water, wireless internet, and cable. In the ...Full review of Tall Timber Apartments

a little dated, but well kept - I lived in one of the one-bedroom units last year. The carpet could stand to be replaced (it was dark blue - a little outdated) but other than that the apartment was great. You get a lot of space for the price and the apartment was kept up well. My only complaint is the parking lot, which is narrow and difficult to get in and out of.



The apartments are near two red bus route ...Full review of Twin Oaks

Kinda slummy... - It was an ok place to live, but far too expensive for the facilities and amenities. I had the same problem as one other reviewer: my neighbor's drain backed up into my kitchen and living room, flooding the linoleum (underneath)and the carpet in the living room and up the hall. Maintenance "fixed" the problem by pulling up the living room carpet on one edge and placing a ...Full review of Mortensen Manor

expensive waste of space - The apartments in legacy tower very expeince and are designed in such a way they waste a terrible amount of space. The electric bills for us at the end of a building were absolutely outrages ranging over $250 a month. Also campustown has a terrible policy on late fees as well as the ledgers they send out trying to inform you of the late charges. I will never live here again! ...Full review of Legacy Towers

Comfortable home - I love this apartment! I have a 2 bedroom 1 bath and it is perfect for two roommates. The second bedroom is a little small, but livable. Every time I have called to have something fixed, the maintenence man (who works for the management, he's not from another company) has been to our apartment within 3 days, most times that very day. It is a little pricey, but it is what I ...Full review of Prairie West Apartments

I Love living here!! - I love living here and I have carpet throughout the whole apartment. The staff is very nice and most of them are all ISU students and live in Campustown's apartments. Whenever I had a maintenance problem it would get sloved that day or night because they have 24 hour maintenance. Yes it does get kinda loud on the weekends, but this is a college town and you are living in the middle of ...Full review of Cyclone Plaza
