Avoid This Place at All Costs — A Nightmare Experience

October 26, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
I moved here hoping for a peaceful escape from downtown, but it’s been a nightmare. My bedroom has been unusable since the day I moved in due to constant noise and banging from my neighbor. After complaining to management, it improved for only a week before the noise returned worse than ever, making it impossible to sleep or have peace in any room. To make matters worse, management disclosed my complaint to the neighbor, leading to vague threats being shouted through the shared wall and ...
uncomfortable encounters in the halls. Adding to the frustration, there are hidden mandatory fees of $150 a month on top of already high rent. Save yourself the regret—avoid this place at all costs.

Not impressed

July 11, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
I moved in February of 2019. This complex is just a few years old. I’ve lived here for 5 months I’ve had; my oven break, drawers in the kitchen break, my ceiling fan fall from the ceiling, plumbing come out from wall behind a toilet, and the floor of my shower crack. I asked management if they would compensate for all the inconveniences and she did not ever respond to the email. They also “didn’t have” a lot of people’s renters insurance on file so we had to give them another copy or else we ...
would get punished. We constantly hear the people that live above us (blaming that on loud people and cheap materials used for construction). The maintenance guy even said to me that “this place is just cheap” Don’t let the “high end” finishes fool you. This place is cheap and not even close to being worth the price they ask for rent. I will never live in or buy another Hubbell property.

No no no

January 9, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Management is incredibly nosy. I've never lived somewhere where they have to come into your unit this much. Everything is incredibly cheap. From the paint to the knobs on the cabinets. Our air conditioner broke twice and now the heat doesn't work properly. Were the first people to live in this unit so that's incredibly dissapointing. Not to mention the lack of parking. Whoever designed the layout was CLEARLY not thinking at all. But hey, for the area it's pretty affordable i guess.

Great Place to Call Home!

September 19, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
Cadence is definitely not what I remembered apartment living to be like. The bedrooms and closets are huge! My apartment has a great kitchen with an island, and not one, but two pantries so storage is incredible! The finishes are top notch and feel more like what you see in a custom home. The amenities are great and the clubhouse is AMAZING!!!! I also have an attached garage that makes it feel like a home. Super convenient! Definitely a great place to live!

2 bedroom

Cadence is nice. We enjoy the pool and workout room. Great location. Helful staff. However our internet has been slow and would prefermore storage.
