Resident ā€¢ 2010 - 2012

6/3/2012

I have been living at Lanesborough for almost 2 years now! And it has been really great. The apartment is always kept up and is really a beautiful complex. It s very quiet and I am a student and I find it better to study at the apartment than at the school or library. I know people often complain about safety. Overall, this apartment complex makes me feel pretty safe. There are security guards around all day and night and they are very friendly. Most people have been complaining on here that they don t do their job but I think they do a fine job and make me feel a little more comfortable walking to and from my apartment and car. There was a recent outbreak of car break in's however apartments in general are not the safest. This is Houston and the medical center at that. People often blame the apartment complex when it s really the environment you live in. Also, you should never leave anything valuable present on the seats and anything that can be visible, this makes you vulnerable. But this is at any complex, store parking lot, etc. However, there have been no recent car break in's. The new gym is amazing and I love it! People complained how long it took to build but it is nice and I'm able to bring my work out DVD's, put them in the DVD player and exercise in a private room with glass mirrors, with a big TV to follow along with! This is not 24 hour fitness, so you can t expect a plethora of work out equipment. :) But I think it s wonderful having such a nice facility at your own apartment complex. I really like the train access. I use it for school/ work so it s very convenient. And everything is so close, I don t really have a problem with gas :) So this location is a plus. The only downside is when the rodeo is in town or other big events. It gets crowded on the train and in the location but that s expected. I never have a problem with parking. Parking is really great here! The management is really nice! Since I am a student they allow me to pay my rent months in advance. They let me pay 5 months ahead so I don t have to worry about rent during school. I have no complaints with them. :) Amanda is really sweet. The maintenance is pretty good also. Most people on here have complained that they are slow, blah. But this complex is big and its priority I m sure. My fire alarm batteries needed to be changed, I let them know and they came the same day. I also have other little things go wrong and they did their job promptly and took care of it! Pest control only comes Monday, so if there s a problem then it s unfortunate having to wait but that s the only negative thing. Anyways, I have more positive than negative. The rent is going up and there are a lot cheaper places in the medical center. But the cheaper you go the worse the renters and the people you attract to the property. A lot of the renters have small children and families and medical students. Not many people will take the time to say something good. One thing goes wrong and BAM it s a bad place to live and they rant and rave about how horrible it is. This is an honest review and I do hope this changes your mind. :)
