  • Poop living conditions

    December 20, 2022
    Absolutely dirty, disgusting hall way. Basement is a pigpen, cant even do laundry down there. Maintenance a joke. I live here currently but I am getting the hell outta here ASAP! I have plenty of pictures too! I would give it ZERO STARS IF I COULD!

  • New owners & the rent goes up again

    February 3, 2020
    Some of us older folks like our home here but now cannot afford it. Some have been here for many years and are saddened. I never even got my floors cleaned when I moved in. It's just a shame no one thinks us older folks trying to live on Social Security. That's my review I am saddened as well because I grew up in the area and feel comfortable here but can't stay

  • Great Place

    September 7, 2015
    I've been at ParkLynn for over a year now. Elsmere is a awesome little town with anything you need. The apartment complex is quiet, maintenance on site and the office staff is super friendly. On street parking and the pet few are reasonable and large dog friendly. This isn't the Taj Mahal, nothing fancy, but it is a nice place to live.
