July 30, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
I’ve had a much better experience since moving into a different unit. The transfer made a huge difference, and I’m much happier with my apartment now. The staff was helpful throughout the process and answered my questions when I needed assistance. Maintenance has also been responsive whenever I’ve submitted a request, and issues have been handled in a timely manner. The community is generally quiet, and I appreciate having a comfortable place to call home. The grounds are kept clean, and I’ve ...
noticed improvements compared to my previous unit. Overall, my experience has been positive, and I’m glad I decided to stay after moving. While no apartment community is perfect, I feel much more satisfied with my current living situation and would recommend this community to anyone looking for a nice place to live with helpful staff and a welcoming environment.

July 30, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
My resident experience has been fraught. The pool is constantly closed when it should be open, and was closed for at least two months last summer. My refrigerator died twice in less than a month and I lost over $250 worth of food only to receive a $50 rent credit. When I contacted management about it, I was told to send them as much documentation as I had to prove my expenditure. When I did, I was ignored. The gym machines are constantly broken, the gates are never closed, but hey, at least *my* ...
AC works, unlike some of my neighbors.

I wanted to share my honest experience living at The Roost, to help future residents. While the complex has potential, my time here has unfortunately been quite frustrating due to a few ongoing issues.Communication: The office staff seems a bit disorganized. It is hard to get a straight answer because you often end up speaking with different people who give different information, making it tough to resolve issues. I see them trying with new management. Maintenance: We have faced some major delays ...
with repairs. I went without hot water for a full week, and the air conditioning has gone out on numerous occasions. Amenities like the pool were also frequently closed or unavailable.Safety: There have been some safety and concerns around the property through out my time here. This is especially worrying because the gate is often broken and left open.Overall, for the price of rent, I feel like the maintenance and communication could be much better.

I like it overall, I've been staying here for 3 years. I haven’t noticed any improvement lately, I do feel as if they make it hard for the tenants that stay out here to live comfortable. I feel as if they put all a lot of orders in place to insure a safe environment but doesn't engage with others to see how they would feel. The visitor protocols has gotten outrages, so far only 5 per month which is crazy. There are several people out here that aren’t all students. If you want to apply student ...
rules only allow them to stay out here. Some people work too hard to shorten their visitors availability because of the policy.
