Safe and mostly clean, and that’s about it.
October 30, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
When I signed my lease, I was able to grab a 2 bed 1 bath for under 1200, an insane deal in my eyes. The neighborhood is safe with tons of children and Greenville is lovely. These are garden apartments with 4 units per building.
All that said, I can’t wait for the lease to be up. First, the buildings are old and the walls are thin. That’s the worst part to me- the walls are extremely thin. Every single creak in the wood floors above is amplified in my unit. I can hear my upstairs neighbor roll ...
over in bed, or shift their weight when standing. It’s shocking…when I send videos to friends, they’re horrified. I have carpet but upstairs has wood. You can hear someone talking outside dozens of feet away. I can hear my upstairs neighbor’s conversations. The heat gets in and the cold gets in. The windows are old and don’t often stay up if you’d like to open them.
There’s no microwave, and no dishwasher with a very shallow sink. The bathroom has no fan so the entire room floor to ceiling is soaked any time you shower…I have a dehumidifier AND damp rid and it’s still soaked. The water is extremely hard (I started losing hair and began washing my hair with bottled distilled water) and runs warm for less than 10-15 minutes. I called maintenance about it when I moved in and he said this call comes often when people move in and he has to have a conversation with new residents about how small the water heaters for each apartment are and there’s not much he can do. You can’t fill the bathtub with hot water (which he demonstrated for me- it only fills about 20-30% of the way before it runs cold).
My unit doesn’t have a washer dryer. The laundry facilities are less nice than a typical college dorm, but not atrocious…I still opt to do my laundry elsewhere.
There’s no linen closet.
Once you move in, you will never hear from the leasing office. No communications whatsoever for holidays or things to know…once you move in, you’re on your own. That can be a pro or con depending on the person.
To my understanding price and participation really does vary between units and they are all in different stages of refurbishment. Your appliances and layouts and flooring may vary.
All in all, the apartments are safe and clean. That’s really valuable especially for the price. If you have kids, it might be nice for them to have others to play with and room to play—there are lawns and space for them to run around. Some units have their own washer dryers which can be great (but the rent
