Brookside Apts are great - I've lived here for 2 years. Very small complex - only 72 units. One of the cheapest places around for a 1 bed 1 bath apartment, and one of the nicest places I've lived in Ann Arbor (lived here for 7 years). Water and heat are included in rent - that in itself is worth renting here. My DTE bill has never been more than $30/mo. Maintenance is quick and reliable - usually fixed same day, next day at the latest. The only complaint that I have is that the show apartment I saw had a dishwasher, but the current apartment I live in does not. The walls are kind of thin, but I've never found that to be a problem as my neighbors are very respectful. Strict no pet policy - however I asked and they let me bring my boyfriend's dog over.
