Winchell Way: Get an air purifier, carpet cleaner, and don't expect to use the pool (Not Recommending)

2009-09-01T07:56:34-06:00

From -Anonymous-: My apartment smelled of heavy cigarette smoke and cat pee. (I don't smoke and HATE cats!) At my own expense I had to use a special enzyme cleaner to get as much of the piss smell out of my carpet. That smell was especially bad in the bedroom closet. I ...

2008-07-17T09:37:37-06:00

2007-09-04T06:54:48-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I wouldn't live at Winchell way apartments unless you want to be hassled constantly.

Winchell Way: NO (Not Recommending)

2006-08-29T11:26:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: First of all, the office staff is ridiculous. The crazy property manager is never there, and they are always changing office assistants. Even though she is never helpful, It would be nice to be able to talk to the person in charge once in a while. When I first moved ... [click to read full apartment review]

Winchell Way: Problems with office staff (Not Recommending)

2006-08-01T09:39:47-06:00

From nightlily: When I moved in the apartment was dirty and the carpet in the master bedroom and hallway needed to be replaced.

2005-06-28T13:49:41-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Just moved in. Office staff very friendly and helpful. A/C went out, maintenance fumbled for a day or two, but got the job done.
Location is great, quiet, no road noise, close to trails in woods. Pool kept fairly clean, but not enough for how much it gets used.
Overall value is ... [click to read full apartment review]

2003-11-03T00:00:00-06:00

Winchell Way: Good value (Recommending!)

2002-11-18T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Apartments are well constructed and relatively sound-proof. The fireplace was a nice bonus. Maintenance handled any problems well. Sidewalks were always shoveled.

Winchell Way: going, going, gone (Not Recommending)

2002-05-16T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Have lived here for almost 6 years. Wonderful when moved in but has gotten worse as time goes on.

2001-07-09T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: These apartments are very nice to live in. I found them to be very quiet most of the time.

Winchell Way: rip off, bad maintenance, litter and noise (Not Recommending)

2001-05-16T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This place is not a luxury. Little college kids get their parents to sign a lease so they can live here and raise hell among the normal people. The maintenance is bad, they rely on one lazy maintenance man and his hired student lackey. They plant flowers and let the ... [click to read full apartment review]
