Kenley: Think outside of the box (Recommending!)

2008-04-28T16:37:34-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I have lived at Kenley about 8 months. I think it's just fine. There are plenty of LOW RENT apartments that have LOW quality of people. Everywhere is going to have problems, but no place is perfect....For all you complainers, remember one thing you can point the finger at one ... [click to read full apartment review]

Kenley: Whitefish has a Blackheart (Recommending!)

2008-03-31T03:51:39-06:00

From marejane9899@yahoo.com: Whitefish is a petty, titty baby still attached to his umbilicus. I, too, noticed a protruding nail head on a fence post adorning the boulevard, but did not think to write my congressman about it. His comments concern matters as insignificant as is he. Perhaps he was the guy I ... [click to read full apartment review]

Kenley: Kenley (Not Recommending)

2008-03-25T23:40:53-06:00

From whitefish: Staff turns over constantly, you can never develop any type of relationship with them so rules/policies/etc change daily. Pretty much no one gives a damn. Maintenance is poor, exterior is poor, excercise room is a joke, grills at pool are a joke. Way to overpriced for the service you get. ... [click to read full apartment review]

2007-12-29T16:32:20-06:00

From mauigirl_inbama: I've been living in Kenley Apartments for almost six months now. Is it perfect? No. I have a mouse in my apartment and I feel like more should be done to fix the problem.

Kenley: No Flexibility and quite rude (Not Recommending)

2007-12-27T16:54:51-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I would not recommend these apartments to my worst enemy. They are "luxury" apartments that have shoddy construction and bad layouts for what you are paying. I recommend looking somewhere else. Also, the cherry on top is the office staff, mainly the property manager. They are not flexible and will ... [click to read full apartment review]

Management put us in the corp. apt. for the night until the carpet dried. :) Since then, it has been quiet (except for ... [click to read full apartment review]

Kenley: Nice but overpriced. (Recommending!)

2006-06-27T19:34:35-06:00

From -Anonymous-: These apartments are nice. The pool and the grounds are beautiful, and the apartment floorplans are very nice. The fixtures and appliances are not worth the expensive rent.

From -Anonymous-: 1. Price.Everyone who moves into Kenley knows the rates are higher but given the ambiance decide it is worth the price.

2005-05-16T10:34:44-06:00

From -Anonymous-: When I moved to Kenly in 2001, the management team was excellent and responsive to my needs.
