Resident 2013

1/5/2014

We needed something really quick because we both got jobs in the area. These apartments were ok and nothing to rave about. They advertise as "luxury," I wouldn't exactly call them luxury. If you are looking for something very basic with no community/amenities these will work for you. Office staff was friendly and maintenance was good about fixing things. I had a one bedroom at $745/month. However, I had more cons than pros. Pros: -the apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood, near shopping/food. -Bedroom closet is a good size. -Heat is paid -Extra storage locker on same floor as apartment included in rent. -Garages available (for a price) -Enough parking Cons: First off, the apartment building itself is pretty old (built in 1978) so many of its issues are age related. Creaky floors, thin walls, old musty smell in hallways, and old windows and patio door. -Make sure to specify if you are a non-smoker. We weren't asked and were placed in the "smoking building" and it sucks when you want to open the window/patio door and have smoke coming into your apartment. -Nothing is paid for except heat (Electricity, cable, and internet ~$35/month each, Trash $4.50/month, and water is every 3 months ~$20/month) so make sure to factor that in. -Comcast is the only cable provider and internet is either comcast or century link. Satellite tv is only available if you have a south facing apartment. -No community amenities except laundry. -The washer tubs are pretty small and costs $1.50 to wash and another to dry. -Kitchens are small and appliances are very basic. No microwave! -Bathroom is outdated, water pressure was ok but water temperature was inconsistent. You'll get scolded or hit with freezing water. -Not very good about removing snow from parking lot or walkways. It has to snow more than 2 inches at a time for them to plow. It's kind of inconvenient when we get little storms here and there and gets pretty sloppy. -You will hear every little thing your neighbors are doing/saying. Our neighbors on one side liked to yell and swear at their toddler and each other early in the morning, waking us up. The other side would bang on the walls when ever we wanted to play a bit of music (not during quiet hours). Kids run up and down the hallway sreaming like it's some kind of hotel.
