      • Disgusting

        September 18, 2022
        Mold, cockroaches, and a horrible rude property manager. Stay away!!! The only redeeming quality is maintenance, which Wouldn’t have to come so often if everything wasn’t so old and disgusting.
        • Property Manager Responded

          September 20, 2022
          We're sorry we have not met your expectations. Paula, our new property manager, has contacted you via email. She would like to set up a meeting with you to discuss a plan of action to resolve the issues you are having at your apartment.

      • Disappointing place to rent

        October 23, 2020
        The day I was available to view the apartment, the office manager said, she was leaving for the rest of the day. So, I didn't get to view it until the day we were in Decatur to sign the agreement. Then she told me to meet the washer delivery people, because she had a dentist appointment to go to that morning. She finally agreed to meet the delivery team, then left the apartment unlocked. So, the delivery people could finish up, and then went to her dentist appointment. When we moved in none of ...
        the windows could close, all were unable to lock and none had screens. Back door had a large amount of space around the door jam, not very secure. The bathroom plumbing was wrapped in a towel, in order to keep the leak from puddles on the floor. The apartment had not been cleaned before moving in. When we moved out, they refused to honor the cleaning receipt from the service that was hired. One reason we moved out, was due to the loud people that lived under us. Also, a flea infestation from the back stairs. We were forced to use the back stairs, due to the apartment across the hall, parking two bycycles in front of our door. The work out room was closed the entire time we lived there. Now they want payment to paint the apartment, after we moved out. I do not recommend renting there.

      • Great Location & Well Maintained

        June 30, 2017
        Prairie Hills is one of the best. Close to best shopping and dining in the Decatur area. Under new ownership for the past year and continuous improvements are noticeable and appreciated. Also appreciate the responsive and attentive property manager. Individual units and overall site are both well maintained.
