I met this girl at the bar and she wanted to go to her house. She lives here and the place was a mess. She was so hot but the house was so disgusting I didn't want to have sex with her. The property wasā€¦Ā See More >

      Pretty close to campus. Back staircases need to be replaced. General maintenance is not good. Never get your security deposit back. Office staff is no customer friendly at all. Updating of units needed.

                Horrible trumped up charges at check out, including $30 to paint each wall, which is normal wear and tear after 2 years. To charge students $60 for stove spill trays is ridiculous. Parents and students do not rent from them!! Not onlyā€¦Ā See More >

                      DO NOT RENT FROM STAR! I can guarantee that you will regret it. The apartment you get will never look like the one they show you. For many of the apartments you should expect old and dirty carpeting, outdated appliances and useless heating/ cooling systems.ā€¦Ā See More >

                          The only thing that used to be positive about these apartments is that they looked nice from the outside and decent on the inside, however over the two year period that I lived there, they let the outside appearance decline a lot. These apartments areā€¦Ā See More >
