Do not move here!
February 1, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
My family and I moved into this apartment complex in 2018 when it was still called Park156, and from the start, it’s been nothing but a frustrating, disappointing experience. One of the major issues we’ve faced is a persistent roach problem that management has completely ignored. Despite several complaints over the years, the roach issue has never been fully addressed. It’s unacceptable, and it’s been an ongoing problem since we first moved in.
The management team, particularly Stephanie, has ...
been incredibly unprofessional. I once asked her about rent policies, and she responded with an aggressive tone while stuffing her face with Doritos. It’s clear that tenant concerns are not a priority for her or the management, and their rude and dismissive attitudes have only added to our frustration. Their response to any issue is either non-existent or minimal, and it’s a pattern we’ve seen throughout our time here.
Rent increases have been outrageous, and the so-called “upgrades” to the apartments have been underwhelming and not worth the hikes. My wife has caught Ana, the complex manager, in multiple lies, and our interactions with her and Stephanie have been few and far between, and almost always negative. The management seems much more focused on making money than on maintaining a quality living environment.
Maintenance has been timely with minor repairs, but that’s about the only positive thing I can say. Otherwise, the complex is plagued with issues—neighbors are loud, smoking is rampant, and there are frequent sightings of homeless people wandering through the property, making it feel unsafe. To add to the list, there are constant dogs running loose around the neighborhood, which adds to the chaos and lack of control in the area. The pool is always dirty, and it’s clear that no one is taking care of common areas like they should be.
On top of all this, the complex rebranded itself from Park156 to Artistry at Bethesda. It’s obvious this was a tactic to distance themselves from the growing number of negative reviews that reflect the exact problems we’ve experienced. It feels like a shady attempt to cover up the reality of living here.
Looking back, moving my family out of this complex was easily the best decision I’ve ever made. If you’re considering moving here, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.
