Me and my husband rented here for about 2 years, and we got pretty much what we had expected. We wanted something really close to NMSU and bigger than our other apartment . . . but here was the bad parts

1. Our car stereo was stolen in the parking lot (not the apartments fault, but it shows that it wasn't the SAFEST place in Cruces).
2. The apartment was kind of falling apart, the closet broke, the kitchen appliances, the tile in the bathtub, and the air conditioning.
3. The office staff tried to raise our rent and we had to prove the rate we got with our paperwork.
4. Occasional bug problems, we had about 6 roaches we found, not too many, but i'm a girl and i don't like finding roaches in my kitchen!
5. The jacuzzi was almost always broken and the pool was sometimes.

The good things:

1. When we moved out they gave us our whole deposit back despite the fact that our rabbits had chewed holes in the carpet, so they must not have noticed or they were being nice!
2. The handymen were always very nice, sometimes it took awhile to get them to work on something, but you didn't mind them being in your place.
3. The whole apartment complex was always well-groomed, they mowed the lawn and trimmed the trees alot.
4. The appliances are being replaced in almost all of the apartments, when we left they threw out our stove and fridge and dishwasher, so i'm sure the new tenants got nicer stuff!

Overall I would recommend it for someone who wants to live in "college" apartments, that doesn't mind some loud neighbors and occasional things breaking to be near school and not have to pay too much in rent.
