Laurelwood Apartments

residents above you hard able to be heard. Overall if you like the old style of run down buildings, and know how to keep roaches, and stuff in running order I would say go for it. If not then skip this place.

purchase an expensive parking permit. The countertops in my unit were redone before I moved in, which isn’t reflected in the current picture. Appliances weren’t fancy, but they were clean and always worked. The biggest issue was the air conditioning. During hot weather it just couldn’t keep up which meant it would top out at about 80 degrees in the apartment during the heat of summer. But when rent is that low, it wasn’t a big deal. It should be noted that I had an upstairs unit that got the brunt of the afternoon sun. Pest control came by a couple of times to spray for bugs, which usually worked but there was the occasional roach that made its way inside. Honestly, this is probably going to be the same story at most complexes in this area/price. One area that Laurelwood really shined in was their dumpsters. I know, that’s probably not a category that really stands out, but the dumpsters were emptied every couple of days rather than just once a week, so there were never overflowing dumpsters. I never felt unsafe in the complex. My roommate did have some money stolen from his car, but he did leave his windows down… I mean… what do you expect? Be smart. Management was always kind and helpful, and Kelly seemed to take a genuine interest in how life was going for you. I never had any serious maintenance issues, but the two times that I did have issues they were fixed the same day. All-in-all, it’s a pretty good place to live for the price. It’s a good choice for students looking for an apartment near UAH.
