Good points:
1. Cheap
2. Furniture included
3. Free cable
4. On UT bus line
5. Pool/tanning beds

Bad points:
1. If you live in the back, the pools are a hike to get to and usually crowded with a slew of drunk people and when I went the tanning beds weren't even working.
2. May be on the UT bus line, but it's quite a walk to get to it and even then you're lucky to catch a bus at prime hours. Once had to wait for 4 buses (because some people like to jump in front of you even though they just got there.)
3. A lot of these people are here not to go to school but mostly just to party.
4. Forget trying to sublease- biggest hassle EVER and got pretty screwed in the whole ordeal.
5. Like most apartments, paper thin walls. But ceiling was like tissue paper.
6. Before I moved here I had heard rumors of the Riverside area being "unsafe" and thought it just a myth- yea- not so. Every time I drive over there now (I've moved) there is a car accident, a forensics team, or a drug bust. And I've heard gun shots while I was walking to my car one night.

If you can afford it, do yourself a favor and just live closer to campus. There's a reason these places are so cheap.
