Port RVA Apartments

reports of stolen packages in this building.

get pretty much anything there usually, and their food and drink selection is pretty awesome too. It is a little unorganized, I think because they are trying to fit so much into it as far as not just food and drink but other supplies too, but they have everything and are constantly getting new shipments, so everything is fresh... (Produce, Dairy, Drinks... etc...) It is better than driving to the closest market nearby (Which would be Fresh Market) which is somewhat expensive too... You also have a few places within walking distance including Legend Brewery Co, Plant Zero Cafe, Papa's Pizza, Camdens, Twisted Ales, and Brewers. Parking in the free lot is usually always open with spaces, It is rare that there is no parking, and if there isn't, you can park on the street which parking is always available. If you want to get a parking pass in the garage, it is 45$ which is a lot better than some other places I was looking at (nearly double!) So you have 3 choices for parking pretty much. Maintenance is great, They always keep up to date with things and any help/service requests needed. Also, they have a nice cleaning lady who is always cleaning up around, so no gross hallways, sticky elevators, or cigarette butts, dog poop, or trash laying anywhere like some other complexes, they take pride, so do the residents. Residents are nice, it seems more like young professionals more than the young college crowd (Thank goodness). This is an up and coming area, and to see how fast it has grown (Within past 3 years) and how it is becoming is why I moved here. They are building up around the area, so for the prices, this is a pretty good deal.

worst few months ever! Management was terrible in relaying information. I had to stay in a hotel for the first month, such an inconvenience. Often times when you would email management they would not respond. There were several occasions where I emailed them concerning emails and no response, by this time I was so over them and just glad that I was eventually moving soon. The garage door has broken numerous times. It completely fell down. This was extremely hazardous and unsafe. It could have fell on someone’s car. And the days that the garage broke, numerous tenants were late for work. The fence that surrounds the pool has also fell down before. It really seemed like they rushed so much to put this place up, things were falling apart. Everything about this is mediocre- there are too many awesome surrounding apartments and lofts in that area that offer more, and probably have better management. The pool is extremely small, as well as the gym room. No weights, dumbbells, medicine balls or anything. Like I said everything is very mediocre. To me- NOT WORTH THE MONEY. Seek another apartment that has better amenities.

Had to switch parking spots in the garage because someone hit and ran my car and I only found out because someone saw it. They did nothing about it either. There are no cameras except for near the elevator and the doors to go outside which to me is unsafe. Management doesn't want to deal with issues, they're just terrible don't even bother trying to reach out for an issue. TOO many problems for the price that you are paying. The electricity bill is high all the time no matter what you do so I have to be paying for someone else's room or something because it doesn't make sense. The walls are super thin i can hear my neighbor sneeze. People are extremely loud at 2am almost every weekend either from fighting or from partying but YOU will get a noise compliment for doing absolutely nothing. THE only good thing here is the cleaning lady because she's extremely nice. Please go somewhere else and save your money.

MYSELF and was forced to move everything up the stairs alone because the management company either lied to me about having access or miscommunication with the construction company.I personally spoke with Mark the owner on several occasions and he was extremely rude as if he couldn't be bothered with the complaints of his tenants. The Apartment- Once I was finally in the apartment I was excited because 1. I was finally done living out of hotels where I had been for weeks 2. The apartments were brand new and seemed nice. I quickly found that the unit was tiny and made with the cheapest materials possible. I could deal with living in a tiny apartment because of the great location BUT the Internet and Cable which were included in the rent were enough to make me want to move. The internet constantly went out, once every few hours. When i called the internet service provider they forced me to pay for a $40 router which apparently only works on their system because I cant use it now. I had the option to work from home which I was never able to use because the internet was so unreliable. For as bad as the internet was the Direct TV was even worse. I cannot count the number of times the technician had to come out to my apartment because my cable was going out on sunny, clear days. It was infuriating. I honestly would not had been so upset by it if I had reliable internet and could just stream something to watch but that was not the case. The parking lot was extremely small, poorly designed and the pool is a joke. I mention those in the same sentence because they literally put the pool in the parking lot. There were several accidents during the year I lived there and during storms the fence surrounding the pool flew off and hit cars because it was so cheap. Basically, the only good thing about this apartment is the location. The rent is pretty expensive for the size of the units and everything else pretty much sucks. So glad to be gone.

the Internet company through portRVA they are so happy to help and have set me up with a very high speed wifi. The staff are always willing to help! Love it here!

rent is a little too high being that the parking garage isn't included and costs $50 but hey, what can you expect from a brand new building so close to downtown. There is other parking available off street and in the apartment's parking lot. In the beginning things were questionable with management but I think it was due to there still being many things that needed to be fixed in all apartments not just my own. Now they respond quickly and follow up to make sure that I am happy. I'm not renewing my lease but if I could afford to I would.
