316 On the Park: upi slumlords (Not Recommending)

2007-07-31T12:14:02-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I lived at 907 Franklin for a year. During this time, the radiators continually broke down leaving us without heat for days on end in the winter. The electricity went out in our living room, and one wall of our bedroom for 3 months. I repeatedly called the maintenance line ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Not Worth It (Not Recommending)

2007-06-23T20:05:26-06:00

From vonb0026: Pros:- Affordable rent.- All utilities included in rent.- Convenient location to downtown and uptown.- Great views from upper floor apartments.- Rooftop deck access.Cons:- NOISE - This was the noisiest place that I have ever lived. The walls are so thin that it is noisy even if you have considerate and ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Low on funds? Not too picky? It's not so bad (Recommending!)

2007-06-26T18:47:37-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've rented a studio for about a year and a half, and have had some problems during my stay. As people have stated, heat and hot water are unreliable, as is the main elevator. I know of three incidents involving non-tenants entering the premises, two of which were handled simply ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: UPI are crooks, but this building is fun. (Recommending!)

2006-10-09T23:41:27-06:00

From -Anonymous-: UPI does suck, and I'm sure they're going to gouge me on my security deposit when I move, but this building definitely has some charm. Of course, I might be one of the "crack heads" mentioned in the previous review, as I spend a fair amount of time hanging out ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Why do so many cool people live in such a sucky building? (Not Recommending)

2006-10-06T16:51:41-06:00

From -Anonymous-: That's kind of the zen koan about this building. The people that aren't crackheads that live here are friendly and cool and there is nice community here. But UPI as you may have gathered from the below entries seriously shirks and sucks. We've been waiting for new carpet for over ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Nice building, nice tenants, NO MAINTANENCE NO LOVE (Not Recommending)

2006-10-03T14:41:28-06:00

From -Anonymous-: UPI is a disgusting horror of a rental company. I will not make this entry long, but if you are interested in the following things, do not for any reason rent from UPI....

Heat when it's cold, ac when it's hot, post-70's carpets, caretakers with IQ's reaching the triple digits (not ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Not my cup of tea (Not Recommending)

2006-08-08T10:01:52-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If you're into living in a dingy environment with loud neighbors (the walls are thick, but the floors and ceilings are not), plugged drains, random power outages, broken-down elevators, old laundry machines, little heat, and cockroaches, sign a lease here.

Overall, the apartments themselves are tolerable, but the management is ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Anything with UPI on it is a bad idea. (Not Recommending)

2005-11-09T18:58:24-06:00

From Mangala: I've lived here for six months on the first floor right next to the front door. Wouldn't be so bad except for the bums screaming outside at 4am banging on windows trying to get in. When we had access to our storage lockers, people would go down and regularly steal ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Dont do it!!! (Not Recommending)

2005-05-21T20:47:45-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Please dont move in here!!!!

I lived in this apartment for two months with no lease and now they are trying to send me to collections. Nothing ever works in this apartment. Imagine living on the 11th floor and twice a month...seriously, this happened to me 4 times....the elevator breaks down. ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: HEAT?? (Not Recommending)

2005-04-25T18:42:16-06:00

From dolphinmn: I have currently lived here for 2 months. I have asked several times for things including an oven knob with degree marks on it so I know where 350 is. I have recieved no knob, no answers to my other questions. The carpet was in horrible shape when I moved ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: sick and tired !!!!! (Not Recommending)

2004-05-21T00:00:00-06:00

From jwhite@comforthomecare.com: I have lived in this building for over a year and I would have to say that I would not recomend this building to anyone. The elevator has been out of order more than I care to count. We have two elevators and one of them is a freight elevator ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: A real disappointment (Not Recommending)

2003-10-29T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Boy, it sure looked like it would be a great place. I couldn´t have been more wrong. The freight elevator has been broken since May and though there was a sign up saying they would work on it, it hasn´t run since. The other elevator has broken down several times ...

316 On the Park: I wish I would have never moved here (Not Recommending)

2003-07-04T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I moved in three weeks ago, the freight elevator was broke down. So I had to carry my leather couch up 5 stories of stairs. I settled in that night to find that all the drains were plugged. The 2nd night here our fuse blew and the care taker(tristen) tried ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: UPI is taking over Mpls and sucking the life out . . . (Not Recommending)

2003-03-04T00:00:00-06:00

From davidshocked: I also have learned the hard way about UPI. It´s a very common move for this company to DOUBLE the rent, cut everything that cost´s any money.

They were 2 hours late to our pre-scheduled meeting to sign the lease. They could not find the key´s to open our apartment. Once ... [click to read full apartment review]

316 On the Park: Run Away! (Not Recommending)

2002-06-27T00:00:00-06:00

From dpalecsandri: This was the most wonderful building I ever lived in...until May 2002 when the building fell into new management. Within two weeks it became rundown, some pretty shady individuals moved in, graffiti appeared in the hallway, rent went WAY up, maintenance disappeared (we currently don´t have a caretaker), the guest ...
