  • Bad Experience

    February 24, 2024
    The place is everything they swore it wasn’t! From paper thin floors, no firewalls, neighbors so loud it has affected my job working remotely. Raw sewage etc. My bathroom sink leaks water and I can not use it. Management does not care. Deceptive practice would be a fitting name for this horrible low quality place. Nothing luxury here!

  • Great place to live

    November 2, 2023
    The units are a nice size. Washers and dryers are in most units. The complex has nice amenities, such as a fitness center, multiple pools, a playground and a dog park. The landscaping is beautiful. Jessica and Kaylah in the leasing office are very friendly, helpful, and responsive to our needs, as is the maintenance crew. The location is great! The neighborhood is quiet. Bus and train transportation are a very short walk from here. A convenience store is right around the corner. The ASU campus ...
    is about a mile away. A post office is a short walk from here. I recommend Emerson Park Apartments to families and students.

  • Great community

    May 14, 2020
    Great community, great location, quick to perform repairs, and very mindful neighbours. There is no trash separation for recycling. None at all, so everything goes to the same dumpster. I believe we should be mindful with the environment as a community, and this is an important issue. But besides this, I find the community and the apartment great and I would recommend it to all my friends.

  • Much worse than it used to be!

    July 2, 2018
    This place used to be decent under the old manager, and before the upped rent and lowered quality. This place has gone way down hill. They over water the grass, which is great because it both makes the place look like a swamp and attracts bugs, and they charge you for the water they waste! The manager does nothing to control the landscapers, and he's only got 1 maintenance guy (who is great, but 1 man can only do so much), because the others couldn't stand working here and quit. If you want to ...
    get a hold of the office, GOOD LUCK; they don't pick up the phones or return calls. Hopefully the higher-ups will read this and get a handle on this train wreck. I know that I won't be renewing my lease.

  • OMNIA ON MCCLINTOCK IS TERRIBLE

    November 8, 2017
    I have lived here for a little over a year now and i tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt. I truly do not feel you get what you pay for here. The rooms are very small and the walls are paper thin. I have now lived in the blue building and the red and it is ridiculous how you can hear every little thing from your neighbors. My neighbors as a matter of fact feel the need to call the cops on me for watching TV at 11:30 at night saying i'm being loud. So the community i believe to not be ...
    very friendly. I've also called the cops for domestic violence against a mother threatening to beat her daughter in the middle of the court yard. In addition the area is not safe at all. A man was stabbed to death on the corner where the 7/11 is, only a few hundred feet from my front door. There is a numerous amount of homeless going through our dumpsters. I even had my car broken into by one of them. Nothing of importance was taken luckily and nothing was broken so i didn't file a police report, but when i reported it to the front office i felt as if they could care less. They just kind of shrugged it off and told me to call the cops every time i see someone suspicious outside. They have no security cameras or anything anywhere. I will now be calling the cops at least 5 times a week, like i really want to be making time out of my day to do that. It is supposed to be their job to make us feel safe there. As a matter of fact we are supposed to have security on site and when i asked the front office staff told me they didn't have a set schedule and they showed up whenever they felt necessary. Listen, i can continue to go on and on about this place. The only good thing here is Sandra, the front desk girl, i love her to pieces, but DO NOT LIVE HERE!

  • Cabana On McClintock

    August 17, 2015
    From the the outside it is a smaller group of two story complexes, which is nice if you don't fancy getting lost or walking a ways to your door. The buildings are separated by color and some have modern and exciting works of art facing the street that make the complex stick out. Beautiful little pocket parks accent every building and bring a nice touch of green. It's in a decent location, right on McClintock but there's minimal noise, a walk away from Tempe Marketplace, multiple convenience ...
    stores, food places, and the light rail station. The management people are very nice and understanding and the maintenance staff are there in a snap if you have any problems. The apartments are fairly new and very modern with a colored accent wall in every kitchen. They were even nice enough to let us repaint the accent wall to match our furniture. Every holiday the office throws a little get together inviting any of the tenants to come hang out and have a snack or even enter a raffle for something fun. I got lucky with this place and I very much enjoy living here for a very decent price.
