Renters Reviews and Ratings
Miserable
January 27, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
My stay here.....always Gas was leaking here. Finally lease ended and I was out of here. Worst management . No manners. No professionalism. They are not concerned about your issues, I would not recommend any body. although location is pretty good on Broad street.
Bad experience
March 21, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
Walked in for a tour and the front desk worker was very rude and not accommodating. Was not eager to help and was upset that we did not schedule a tour online.

June 17, 2025

Horrible
October 28, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
I lived here for 3 months. I was getting bit up in my apartment, and the exterminator couldn't even figure out what was biting me. I was told I would have to pay 4 months rent to break my lease. I would have paid 5 months just to get out of that apartment.

Could you please reach out to me directly at (804)672-9280 so we are able to remedy all of your concerns quickly. Thank you.
Terrible apartments
August 23, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
I still live there for now but they are very slow on repairs, if they even repair anything. Trash everywhere because they took out all the trash bins for a centralized compactor that hasn’t worked yet. The front office is trifling, won’t answer the phone and want to argue over the simplest of things. I tried to get a 2 day guest pass for parking and they won’t even do that. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

False statements
July 15, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
When ever I call them they say they have apartments available for lease, they tell we can come and look at the apartment . Once we reach there they say there are no apartments available . This is the third time we were experience this!!!
Not sure how would it be after signing the lease thanks we got experienced before!!

Hi Swathi, it saddens us to see your experience with our community wasn’t more positive. Our future residents are important to us and while we strive to provide excellent service, we are sorry we missed the mark with you. Thank you for your feedback
Don't Move Here
May 9, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
This is the worst apartment complex we have ever lived in. We've only been here for a year and 10 months and we've have more problems than anywhere else we've ever lived. Our gas water heater broke twice, causing us to have to vacate our apartment both times. The toilet in our master bedroom hasn't worked since we moved in, despite numerous calls to maintenance. More recently, the ceiling in our bedroom collapsed while we were sleeping in bed because of a crack we told them about 4 months ago ...
that they never fixed. I wouldn't suggest anyone move her until the do some serious work to their units and not the patch job they seem to think is okay.
