The Second Time Around

August 25, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
Well some people say the second time around is better. I wish that had been my experience while staying here. The first time I lived at Metro when it was a newer construction was a God sent experience. The second time I was there for was for five years. I just moved out this month. It let a lot to be desired. I felt cheated in many ways. I am sure it could have been worse but it comparably was my worst experience with any apartment complex. The positive side is the spacious apartments and the ...
more recent office staff are more personable. Chelsea was always the bright light whenever I spoke with her over the phone. I hadn’t met her in person and assumed she may no longer be there. But she always treated us with respect and that goes a long way.

We do appreciate you sharing these kind words about the spacious homes and Chelsea’s respectful service. However, we want to connect about your concerns. Please contact us directly so we can help. Best, The Manager at METRO 5514

Do not move here

September 13, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
The only good thing about this place is the amount of space you pay for. Other than that dont move here. As current residents in a 2b & 2ba, Im searching for ways to get out of lease because every other week the water is getting cut off for some plumbing issues, higher than normal electricity bill because they are to cheap to invest for the right a/c unit for the apartment, my kitchen window has been cracked since i moved in and no one has came to fix , multiple issues with the HVAC monthly. Not ...
only that, my bathroom tubs has multiple cracks in it and some type of gritty texture. Currently, my mailbox is broken and the mail lady is putting mail in when i reported this twice. Something is always broken in my apartment or the complex. The location is bad also because of the trains. If I could give them zero stars i would. They literally took my problems seriously after I told them i would withhold rent. They did not do a good job, they order me a new a/c was like we did everything.

WORST PLACE TO LIVE IN HOUSTON

August 19, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
DO NOT MOVE HERE. THIS WAS THE WORST PLACE EVER. YOU COULD NOT PAY ME TO MOVE BACK IN. SAVE YOUR MONEY. Apartment condition: Carpet was dirty upon move in. Management did nothing about it. IF YOU move in, be sure to note EVERY LITTLE chip, mark, scratch you see. They will charge you for every single little thing upon move out. I was carpet clean even though I already reported that my carpet was dirty upon move in. Poor property maintenance: Water is constantly turned off for hours due to ...
broken pipes. Electricity is always having a power outage for whatever reason. I literally cannot count the number of “water shut off” and “power outage” emails I have received. No preventative maintenance is done. Very poorly built property. Location: Property is located right next to multiple trains. Trains are LOUD. They also back up traffic so you will have trouble coming to and leaving your apartment if trains are there. They come very often.

Water is ALWAYS being shut off

October 10, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
If you enjoy waking up in the morning and not being able to brush your teeth, wash your face, or take a shower then this is the place for you. They have literally cut off the water 3 times in the past two weeks. This happens every single month. They cut it off early in the morning so if you do not check your email first thing when you wake up, you will not be prepared. It will stay off from 8 in the morning until about 5 or 6 in the evening.

Property Manager Responded

November 12, 2020
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We strive to provide our residents with ample advance notice prior to water shut-offs, which are sometimes unavoidable due to the need for repairs and servicing. However, we understand that the temporary loss of service can be frustrating. We would value an opportunity to speak with you about this in detail, and encourage you to contact our office at your earliest convenience. Until then, we sincerely apologize for any disruptions to your normal routine.

Let’s do better

February 23, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
I currently live here and the place has its extreme perks but it’s not enough. It is so spacious, pretty central location, never runs out of parking and an in unit washer and dryer. As I was applying , I knew there have been murders but i told myself that crime has no zip code. This is true. Candidly, I disapprove of the fact that Management doesn’t notify us when something unfortunate occurs. We are left in limbo until they figure out how to make a statement. They usually lie within the letter. ...
Another reason this place is not enough nor worth it, is the fact that there is so much mold in the first floor apartments. My health has taken major hits since living here. The maintenance folks are so sweet but I put this issue on management for not dealing with this sooner. Honestly , if you choose to live here , just aim to live on the 3rd floor because you can honestly hear every little thing someone is doing upstairs (not pleasant).

I would give this zero stars if I could. They charge us again for shampooing even though we already hired a professional cleaning service up to standard when we moved out. They charge us again for water bill and claimed it was back tracked. This does not make sense. All of our monthly water bill has always been consistent and we pay for the month we used. Now, they’re charging us for almost double the amount we usually pay for ... sewer/ water? Two charges at that. Just so you know, water shut ...
down in this place can happen SEVERAL TIMES a month. The place I live in right now is much nicer and luxurious, more cost in rent but very less in all these weird bills. All of the reviews saying it’s a bad area, gate is often broken, security was not of any help because there was so many crime that happens, and actually a murder that happened just outside of my building, and rude management, it is all TRUE. Why did I move in here then? Cost effectiveness and it was the closest to UH Purple rail. We were UH undergrads paying our own bills. My advice to you if you decide to move in here anyway is DOCUMENT EVERYTHING, and BE STRICT ON THEM. We have always been lenient and understanding of their average to poor quality and facility, we understand the rude management too, because hey, you get what you paid for right? I wouldn’t expect 5 star treatment when it’s comparatively cheaper in what I pay. But, apparently, they expect their tenant to deliver to their 5 star requirements. You can judge what you will from my review, but I just want to share this so it won’t happen to you. I thought the other tenant’s experience must have been because they are non-compliant. For two years of being compliant tenant, this is what you get. They are going to be VERY STRICT on you. And watch out for all of the ways they can charge you extra when you move out. Don’t believe me still? Keep scrolling down to the older yet LONG and THOROUGH complaints from their reviews. They all say the same thing as I am saying. Please, please consider somewhere else. It’s not worth the cost saving on what we endured and what they’re treating us now. Pay a little more that treats you better. Right now, I’m still trying to settle this outrageous and unfair bill they’re trying to charge us. But seeing how they treat their tenants, I’m not expecting much. But mark my words, if they keep this up, this place will pay the price back one way or another.

Irene, Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We appreciate your feedback, though we wish it were to share a more positive experience with us. As you are aware, the return of the deposit is based on the condition the apartment is left in. We do charge for shampooing the carpet at move out if it was not cleaned by the resident. As stated in your move out instructions " a copy of the cleaning receipt must be provided to the office as proof of this cleaning to avoid the basic cleaning charge". We did not receive a copy of any receipt on your carpet cleaning. The water bills are back dated and each time bills are sent out they reflect the dates of charges. Our team strives to provide excellent customer service, and always respond quickly and efficiently when maintenance issues arise. We sincerely apologize if you feel this does not match up with your perspective. If you are still unsure on anything, I would like to personally invite you into the office to speak with me, the ...
community manager. If you are not able to come to the office, I am always available by phone, or e-mail if that works better for you. (713) 847-8303- Metro5514Mgr@comcapp.com

Dangerous area, NO AMENITIES, loud train, rude and unorganized office staff and ROACH INFESTED. I have no clue how they managed to get 4 stars here because everyone I know who lives here HATES IT and for very good reason.

Unsafe

February 27, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
Cons: NOT SAFE. My neighbor was murdered, my roommate's car was stolen, my guest's car was broken into, there was a break-in attempt, packages got stolen, all within less than 2 years. Authorities did little to nothing to improve security, but tries to cover it up. They will say " the past 2 years i've worked here, I did't hear anything bad happening" - you can call them rn before they see it, and everyone will read the same script, even the security. Also, the cargo trans passing next to the ...
apartments at random times at night will give you anxiety attacks when they blow their horns, it even shakes the buildings. Pros: Maintenance is swift; they do good work too.

Thank you for taking the time to review Metro 5514. I am sorry to hear that your experiences have been less than satisfactory. Last month, there was an incident of domestic abuse and a resident died. The perpetrator was not a resident here, and immediately went to the police station and turned themselves in. It was an unfortunate and isolated incident where the two parties knew each other. As the property manager, I immediately sent a notice to all residents informing the community of the incident. I appreciate you bringing up the trains as there was a meeting this week at the Civic Association regarding the trains. That information was emailed out to the community. Please contact me for additional information regarding the meeting that took place. It takes the community working together to make a difference and I appreciate you reaching out. I would like to personally invite you into the office to speak with me about your concerns. Please call me at the Leasing Office or email ...
me at metro5514mgr@comcapp.com so we can schedule a time to talk in person.

Nice place but...

February 1, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
The apartments are spacious and overall pretty nice. Few bugs when I moved in but my unit had been empty for a while. My problem is not with the apartment itself. It’s the GOD FORSAKEN TRAIN! Constantly blocks the road and it is LOUD. I would not recommend this place if you want to keep sane and get a decent nights sleep.

Bad place

May 9, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Don't rent here. Drugs, violence, and danger at every turn

Extreme pros and extreme cons

February 28, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
This place okay if you’re a student due to the cost of rent and how close it is to a couple universities around but honestly there are so many other options around that are much better. I’m about to leave after 12 months here and I’m just over a lot of the problems in this complex. I live on the bottom floor and there are holes in the foundation and I’ve had rat problems multiple times and when I asked for pest control the maintenance people basically brushed it off and ignored us for a month ...
until I constantly ‘annoyed’ them enough. Cockroaches are a problem in the summer. The gates constantly broken. My car has gotten broken into. There’s a huge pit under the sidewalk by my unit that has been ignored. TLDR: pros-size, cost, and location for students Cons- basically everything else

Not Worth It.

December 28, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
Ok. I'll give the most honest opinion I can. I stayed here for 2 years. Pros: Spacious apartments, huge kitchen, washer and dryer in unit, security guys (sometimes they walk around, sometimes they just sit in the car), neighbors are nice. Not much around except Fiesta and the Post Office. Cons: No amenities (no business center, no gym, no pool, no resident only parking, no resident events). There's bugs, these little small skinny roaches, they are a constant issue and its disgusting. I have ...
lived in 3 other apartment complexes and never had this issue. They are literally an everyday occurrence and it made my skin crawl. I got my apartment treated lots of times but nothing helped. Water gets shut off randomly. Mold. I thought I avoided that issue but when I was moving out I saw some black mold at the bottom of my closet behind the door where I never really went. Train is annoying too because it can hold you up 10-20 minutes. It's just not worth it. They've raised the prices since I first moved there and honestly you can get so much better for the same price. The upgraded apartment isn't worth it either. The wood floors aren't real wood. Your feet will sink in certainly places in the floor. It's just not worth the sub par quality.
