St. Edwards student here!

October 24, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

This is a great place to live, especially if you attend St. Edwards University. My one-bedroom is perfect for my situation. Plus, the location is ideal, with many fun things to do, eat, and explore nearby. Overall, it’s a solid spot to call home!

Do not recommend

January 29, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

Pros: the location, plenty of parking (free/unassigned), large bedroom, no carpet. Beyond the above, I've had nothing but issues at this apartment. I know an older building won't be perfect, but I've never had issues like this. The biggest being the cockroaches - since I moved in, I've been dealing with roaches in my bathroom. Its gross and pest control is not solving the issue. Pest control only comes Fridays, and the only thing they will do is spray the floors. Management shows no desire to ...

further address this issue. The in-unit dryer is a condensing/ventless unit - so inefficient, takes forever to dry laundry. The exterior of the building is dirty, and nothing is done to keep the walkways, stairwells, or buildings clean. The "renovations" are surface level - new cabinet doors and appliances, that's it. Drawers were broken when I moved in. Windows are terrible - they're old, and the living room window is single pane, letting in cold/heat and condensation when it gets very cold out. They're also dirty - no cleaning before I moved in. Overall, there are plenty of better places to live nearby. I'd skip this. Note: new management took over last week, tbd how that will affect things going forward.

Live Somewhere Else

October 19, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com

I would recommend anyone looking for an apartment to live anywhere else but here. I am shocked at some of the positive reviews and question them, as everyone I've talked to that lived there had a negative experience. Management does the bare minimum. When we moved in every light in Building 5 was out, which is a huge safety issue. After going to the office multiple times to report it, I put in a maintenance request on 02/24/2022. I never heard back, so I went into the office to follow up. I went ...

in weekly for about four weeks and was repeatedly told it was not in this year's budget, but they would see if they could order temporary lights. After reemphasizing the safety issue, they installed ONE crappy motion detector light that barely worked. Fast forward five months and the lights were still broken. On top of this, there have been multiple homeless in the dark stairwells, people sleeping in their cars, dumpster divers, and more. Some mornings I would wake up and see homeless bathing in the pool. I never felt safe and lost sleep after hearing about what happened to other tenants. Every time I told Melanie her response was to call the police and maybe they'll start doing trips in their free time. Her answer was never to fix the issue, but instead the bare minimum. After a few months living there, I started to count down until my lease was over. In addition, none of the buildings are maintained and it seems like everything is falling apart. I think the first step would be to get new management and start caring about the tenants. Until then, I would recommend living somewhere else.

Property Manager Responded

October 21, 2022

We're saddened to see your rating and review. After speaking with the team, we're aware a light was installed next to your apartment while we worked on getting the entire project finalized and were informed that you and your roommate were pleased with the light. Our team was able to complete the full property lighting replacement prior to your move. Our team was unaware of some of the concerns mentioned and we encourage our residents to reach out to local police with any unusual activity and inform us of this as well. We would have loved the opportunity to improve and address any other concerns you were experiencing prior to your move. Should you have any questions regarding your move out, please reach out to our leasing office. We wish you the best in your new home.

Just renewed

September 21, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com

I like living at the Establishment. I like living here so much that I recently renewed my lease. I moved here in August 2017 and have not had many issues since. The apartment is small, well-maintained, and very friendly. I say hello to my neighbors all the time! Pests can be a bit of a problem, but the maintenance employees are always around to help. The front office is also very personable and no hassle. I would totally recommend that my friends live here.

Phenomenal

September 21, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com

The establishment staff is amazing. Any maintenance requests really get answered crazy fast. Beautiful apartments, couldn’t have asked for a better first apartment experience.

Great apartment!

September 21, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com

Very happy here. It's in a fantastic location with easy access to all South Austin spots. Very dog friendly with a great layout and grassy areas for dog walking. Have had no issues with management, and any maintenance issues I've had were fixed in an easy timely manner. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great quiet spot with that Austin vibe.

The Establishment

September 21, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com

I have been living here for about 3 months now and I must say I am quite satisfied! The location is superb, and the rent is lower than usual for this area. The complex is a very nice size and has a community feel. There are three laundry rooms located very conveniently, and I have never run into any problems be it maintenance or availability. The pool is also very nicely decorated with a desert vibe
