Highly recommended for reasonable people

I was a two year tenant at T3 from August 08 - August 2010. Don't listen to the few people who had a bad experience and come here to complain. With over 300 tenants a year, there will be a few that get upset about something. I thought life at T3 was all I could ask for as a college student. Maintenance was prompt and professional, staff did a good job keeping the place clean during the week, but they weren't going to babysit the partiers who trash the place on the weekends, and they shouldn't have to. On-Site Amenities - The on-site fitness centers, computer lab, and common rooms are nice amenities to have for quick convenient use, but don't expect them to be a nice as the ARC or going to a campus lab. The best amenity though has to be the on-site office. Much more convenient that having to haul across campus to pay rent or put in a maintenance request. The staff are all reasonable people. If you are reasonable with them, they will do whatever they can to help you out. At the same time, I've seen entitled 'princesses' from the suburbs come in a throw a fit to the staff, and ruin any chance of getting what they want from the staff. Like I said, its a great place for reasonable people. Apartments - The apartments are spacious for two people. The apartment entry door has an automatic closer hinge, and locks automatically. While it was frustrating the few times I locked myself out, I also didn't have to worry about forgetting to lock the door when I left. It would be nice if the exterior windows opened, but as its a building from the 70s, that wasn't a big concern when the building was constructed. Just part of living in an older building. Parking - The parking deck is very well lit, and has direct access to the building. There is also short-term visitor parking and overnight passes that can be bought for guests. Utilities - All utilities are included in the rent, which is very convenient but has some trade-offs. I never had any problems with hot water or electricity, but you only have basic cable and internet service. Only broadcast channels are delivered in HD, no DVR, and the internet was slow to the point of prohibiting the use of youtube. This problem likely lies more with Pavlov than T3 though.
