    My experience at The Roost Apartments has been genuinely great. From the moment I moved in, I felt comfortable and taken care of. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and quick to respond whenever I have a question or need something.

    We had some hiccups in the beginning but overall ended up being a great stay! One thing I would improve is the maintenance of the apartments prior to move in but I appreciate the help from everyone involved.

    My experience so far at The Roost has been great, safe, spacious, and feels homely. But some areas need improvement- majorly communication from the front desk at times seems exhausting, and maintenance tasks take longer to be completed. Overall, I am happy that I live here!

    Overall, it’s a great housing community clean, and nice. The management team is helpful and respectful, just a bit slow at times. Still, they do get things done.

    My time at the Roost has been pretty good, although I will say I think I got lucky based on what I've heard from other residents. First of all the area isn't the best, there was a shooting my first week here, my packages have gotten stolen, and people drive through blasting music at early as 4 am. The gate never works, but they provided security so that was nice. Matenience is slow and sometimes inconsistent. I've had a few issues with roaches but for the most part I've kept my unit clear. The ...
    mail system has not worked the entire time I've been here even though they keep saying they're going to fix it. The mailboxes are overflowing with previous residents mail. I will say the price is very competitive; however, I really appreciated that. Overall, an ok experience.

    Living at The Roost Apartments has been a positive and comfortable experience. The community feels welcoming, and the environment is always clean and well-maintained. My apartment has been a great fit—spacious, modern, and designed with convenience in mind. I appreciate how quickly maintenance responds whenever I submit a request; they are always professional and efficient. The amenities, especially the study lounges and common areas, make it easy to balance relaxation and productivity. I also ...
    enjoy the sense of safety on the property, which gives me peace of mind coming home at any hour. The staff is friendly, helpful, and willing to answer questions or address concerns. Overall, living at The Roost has allowed me to feel at home while staying focused on my goals. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and supportive place to live.

    Dangerous neighborhood, maintenance dont be wanting to come. Office dont answer any calls, plus my celling is falling in. Probably wouldn’t renew but the place is cheap so, we deal with it.

    I've been here for about 4 months now, and everything has been some sailing from communicating with maintenance to getting my questions answered at the front desk. I say by far of all the student living i've experienced, The Roost is the best one.

    So far, my experience in this apartment hasn't been bad, but there's definitely room for improvement. On the positive side, the location is great, with easy access to public transportation and local shops. The building is generally quiet, which I appreciate. However, the maintenance response time could be quicker; I had a leaky faucet that took a week to get fixed. Also, while the appliances are functional, they're a bit outdated. With a few upgrades and some attention to more prompt maintenance, ...
    this place could easily go from 'not bad' to a great living space.
