Three Strikes and you're Out!
February 25, 2025 - Reseña de Apartments.com
I strongly advise against living at MAA Midtown Phoenix. My 2.5-year experience here has been nothing short of disastrous. The security issues are alarming - during my time here, my bicycle has been stolen twice, and my car window was smashed in. And I’m not alone in this; according to other tenant reviews, car break-ins are a common occurrence here. Given my experience, I absolutely believe it. What’s even more frustrating is that the so-called “security patrol” did absolutely nothing to prevent ...
these incidents. Their presence seems to be merely for show, offering no real protection for residents or their property.
The parking garage is a nightmare on multiple levels. Not only has it been a security risk, with access-controlled doors broken more often than functional over the last year, but it’s also disgustingly filthy. It appears that the garage has never been cleaned since the building opened. The combination of poor security and neglected maintenance makes parking here feel like leaving your car in an abandoned lot.
Oh, and do you enjoy the soothing sound of low-flying helicopters late at night? If so, you’re in luck! The building is conveniently located right under the helicopter flight path for St. Joseph’s hospital. Nothing says “peaceful urban living” quite like the rhythmic thump of rotor blades at 2 AM, right?
The poor construction quality is evident in the floors. Living here is like having a herd of clydesdales as upstairs neighbors. With hard floors and no rugs, I can hear every single footstep, furniture move, and dropped item at all hours of the day and night. The lack of sound insulation between floors makes it impossible to enjoy any peace and quiet in your own home.
As if the noise wasn’t enough, over the last year, we’ve been experiencing intermittent issues with hot water. There have been multiple occasions where we’ve been left without hot water overnight. Nothing like a cold shower to start your day, right?
There’s been a persistent problem with other tenants disabling the fire alarm sirens in their apartments. This has led to additional testing of the system beyond the yearly inspection, meaning we’ve had to endure extra rounds of blaring sirens. Because who doesn’t love impromptu fire drills?
The neighborhood itself is problematic, with a significant homeless population. On multiple occasions, I’ve witnessed homeless individuals attempting to enter the building, which is deeply concerning for resident safety.
