Good college living
Review Date: 9/20/2009 Reviewer: Anonymous
I moved here when I was 17 fresh out of hs, and while the office staff is incompetent most of the time they're friendly and it's a fun place to live. Living there a year, I saw only two bugs which can be expected anywhere. When I signed my lease they let me look at a map and choose which building I wanted and I selected 26, close to the gym and pool but far enough away to where it was always quiet. I never felt scared there even when out at night alone. It's near downtown and barton springs which is great and has a really nice gym. they offer free tanning, but the beds are old and at least one of them is usually broken. The furniture provided has light wear and tear but was in overall good shape. Cons: They definitely did not look at my roommate application at all. I requested someone with no pets and ended up living with a pitbull and 2 smaller yappie dogs. I also requested a 2nd or 3rd floor apartment and was given 1st floor, but that's pretty minor. There were some mix-ups with my rent but when I talked to the people about it they fixed it. Also, they are not trying to scam you for money, they're just legitimately dumb. When I complained about being overcharged they reversed it and gave me a credit on my account that was way more than what I was owed. My worst experience there was I signed up for the utility package and my roommates that THEY assigned me did not, so I paid the utility package, and then my roommates asked me for my portion of the utilities. Basically the first month I lived there the apartment got double utilites. You'd think they'd put me in an apartment with people also getting the package..... Overall, not bad, great facilities just incompetetent staff. they have great parties and give aways for things like christmas and superbowl etc. |
