Resident 2012 - 2013

2/25/2013

I'm in my 20's and this is my 5th apartment in about 7 years. I try to be complete if i take the time to review so here ya go. I would rank citrus as the best apt I have lived at so far for a few reasons. 1)The office staff gets my questions answered and they are friendly whenever I drop in monthly for my free air conditioner filter (your suppose to chnage your own monthly and they keep them in the office). they send out emails about whats going on and hang letters on your doors with updates. they also post flyers above the mailboxes of each building with an offer or contest. 2) The location is sweet. There is literally every type of food and service you could want within a 4 minute drive. I'm about convenience so thats big to me. Not to mention I like going downtown new orleans and hoppin on the earheart expressway will get you there in 15 mins. Nothing in the New orleans is more than 20 mins away. 3)Maintenance guys are great, I've had them come abotu 5 times and they fix exactly what I ask the same day or next day. Mr. Dwayne is one of them and he makes sure stuff gets done right. 4)The pools are small but the area around them in the courtyards is kept up very well with landscaping and a little man-made "creek" flowing around. Cool to go sit out there and take a nap. Lanscaping and grass is kept up regularly around the apt as well, I know becuase the lawnmowers wake me up when I sleep late liek 2 days a week. No big deal though. 5)Fitness: I use the tennis courts and they stay lit late into the night. Awesome if you liek tennis. Gym is small with no bench but still got free weights or elmwood fitness and snap fitness are a 2 minute drive from the apt. there is a .75 miles paved running trail that is inside the property gates and awesome for a quick run then striaght up to my apt for a shower. They even have little stations along the trail for like pull ups and sit ups but I just run. 6)The apt unit was very clean when we moved in, might not always be the case I guess but mine was great. 7)Parking isnt assigned or organized which has been somehting nice at other apts i lived in but the upside is that no decals or assigned spots means my friends wont get towed when they come over to stay the night or just to hang. i've hated looking for open visitor spots at other places i lived, just my opinion. 8) I liek the chimney but thtas somehting other places have to. Just a plus Obviously its not perfect, no apartment is. 1) Of course there is occasional noise from other people coming in and out of their units. Walls definielty let some outside noise through but same as my other apartments. 2)I live on the corner by the dumpsters so I hear the dumptruck having to lift and shake 3 dumpsters like 3 times a week which wakes me up if I'm sleeping after a night shift. No big deal since they gotta do it and I just go back to sleep. 3)the exit gates do seem to break every few weeks but its not liek they stay closed where i cant leave, they just stay open until fixed 4)rent is not as cheap as others around but the place is definielty nice so I was fine with extra per month 5) I mentioned before that the gym is small and limited by space and variety of equipment 6) color of the complex is not my first choice, haha, but oh well Other than those complaints nothing really sticks out. I have not had to move otu yet so I cant comment on that process nor have I had problems to work out with the office as I saw one or two people reviewing and complaing about mean administration. Really ncie to so far. My main concern through the years is maintenance taking care of problems for me and location of the place. that along with the upkeep of this complex has made me really happy so far. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll be sure to post up if I end up having a problem with this place. Hope this review helps you if your looking. I'm not going to scroll back up and correct all my misspellings and mistypes so sorry if its hard to read... -Brian McManus
