      • Don’t even think about it… keep looking

        May 16, 2022
        Renovations are not as nice as they seem Parking is tough Expect mice and some bugs Laundry is unusable. Not enough machines and the basements is often occupied by homeless Other tenants are loud, violent and some demonstrated creepy behavior towards me Walls are paper thin Maintence is rude and hard to get in touch with so if you get locked out you are f$&@ed I also had NO HEAT for over a month in the winter (should have started with that)

      • RODENTS and Homeless PEOPLE

        February 17, 2022
        DO NOT RENT HERE!!! They have so many rodent issues and do nothing about it. The hallways are dirty. We went a month without hot water and heat and they leave the basement doors unlocked and homeless people and drug addicts dwell there at night and they are fully aware! This place is like putting lipstick on a pig! A mess!
        Review from Apartments.com
      • Bad Idea!

        January 23, 2022
        Living here is like living above a "Homeless Shelter" The homeless sleep in the basements and management has done nothing to stop the influx of homeless people sleeping in the basement. Walls are paper thin you can hear you neighbors talking. not worth the asking price in the least.

      • Disgusting hallways, NO hot water

        July 2, 2021
        There is no hot water most of the time and the insides of the buildings are old, filthy and smell terrible most of the time, neighborhood crack heads get high in the hallways and the locks in the downstairs doors are always broken. The pipes are old in the renovated apartments, your tub will get backed up regularly and the maintenance is lazy and will not be around to fix it, this has been a big mistake renting here and I suggest you don’t get into a lease here
        Review from Apartments.com
      • Not as nice as it used to be

        May 17, 2021
        The property has just taken away our parking, outsourcing it, and the effect is a raise in the monthly rent of over $100 monthly. If you try to park on the street, the home owners around get testy because they feel you are taking their spaces though it is public streets. Figure on adding more than $100 on the advertised rent or much annoyance.

      • Not worth the money or annoyance

        February 13, 2021
        Maintenance use to be 24/7 for emergencies. Not with the new owners. It's hard to reach anyone if you have an emergency request after hours. Don't be fooled by the newly renovated talk. Yes the apartments were updated but pipes were not. You will deal with leaks and other issues due to the age of the actual buildings. Also like many apt complexes you will hear your neighbors if they are too loud. Fortunately we do not have rodents because the old owners were quick to put steel wool in any ...
        open spaces. I do not have confidence the new owners would do that.

      • Don’t fall for the “renovation” pitch

        October 9, 2020
        Poor renovation on renovated apartments. Waste of money. Have unpatched spaces as a result that I needed to fill everywhere with steel wool. Pests. Maintenance And monthly “exterminator” not helpful at all. ALWAYS freezing in the winter.

      • Thin walls!

        September 22, 2020
        Thin walls! Yes, it is true. I can hear my upstairs neighbors walk, talk, open closet doors, and flush the toilet! I know exactly where they are in their apartment at any time! I am not exaggerating! It used to scare me, because I thought someone was walking inside of my apartment a few times when I just moved here. It's kinda like living right next to train station: you will eventually get used to constant noise. I do get that it's no one's fault, it is just a very old building!

      • I would look somewhere else

        June 25, 2020
        I’ve been here for over 9 years and have watched these apartments deteriorate. The washer machines are nasty and the basement you will more than likely see cockroaches. The walls are paper thin. I could hear my neighbors and their music. No heat in the winter because the building is essentially older. They do try to clean the building and keep up with the landscape to make it more eye-catching. I’ve seen drug addicts walk by looking in your car and the garbage area is always a mess. You will find ...
        lots of rats by one of the dumpsters. This will be my last year here. I’m off to a better area and new start. Don’t get caught up in the new renovated apartments they are the same as the original apartments still. They just bedazzle them.

      • Keep Looking Don't Stop Here.

        February 15, 2020
        Keep on looking. Not worth it. The walls are whisper thin so you hear every word in the other apartments. One time Forest Hill Terrace must have been a nice place but those days are gone. The grounds are dire need of landscaping. Roofs on some of the buildings must be replaced. The gutters haven't been cleaned in years. The parking lots are disgusting. Office staff are not pleasant. Maintenance staff does the bare minimum. Others have complained of roaches and mold. For what they are ...
        charging you can find nicer digs. You have been warned.
