DO NOT MOVE HERE
July 1, 2025We have been here for 7 years, and every year there's been a new landlord company, gone through 3 different name changes and the property has just gone downhill. They are asking too much money for what little there is and what we have to go through. Trash build up, water damage, pests and roaches to lack of building maintenance. Alot of long time neighbors are moving out along with my family. Do not come here.Review from Apartments.com
Do Not Move Here !
March 12, 2024Do Not Move Here! The staff who are employed here have been and still are terrible. They are impossible to get a hold of and take forever addressing issues, and that's if they even contact you back to begin with. I've lived here since Oct. 2023 and from the very start it has been an absolute nightmare. I signed a lease for a nonrenovated apartment.The day of the move I contacted them to make sure everything was ready because we were moving up from Georgia. We were told they had no apartment at ...all ready to move into until 3 days later! We lived out of a uhaul for 3 days and signed another 12 month lease for another apartment there only to find out the day of our move that one wasn't ready either. The only apartment they had was a renovated one which costed more. We had nowhere else to go and signed for this "renovated"unit. We never had an initial maintenance visit to come fix small things that were broken when we moved in. We have not had working heat or A/C since we've moved in. We've been told twice that we need a new A/C unit but have heard nothing back from the staff for months. Our kitchen ceiling is now leaking loads of water throughout the day and we can not get a hold of anyone even after putting in multiple emergency maintenance orders and calling their "emergency" phone line. We have tried to contact the office and still no luck in getting help in our unit. Upon move in our kitchen and bathroom floor was replaced because of water damage which they just stuck new flooring on top of rotten wood. The new flooring is now peeling up after only 4 months. We've heard horror stories from multiple neighbors about the bug infestation that happens during the spring/summer and how maintenance has left holes in their ceilings and walls which are also not fixed yet after months. We also have mold in our laundry room which again we have yet to have someone come out and look. The property is also covered with trash and people not picking up after their animals. Please save yourself the stress and headache, Do Not Move Here !Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
AVOID AT ALL COSTS
May 22, 2023I’ve lived here for four years. The first two years I lived towards the back of complex. It was ok but I moved towards the front. This is when I ran into problems. First off, the breezeways are filthy with trash from food containers and cups from people using the breezeway as their hangout spot. People frequently sit on the steps smoking weed and hang out with friends. I’ve witnessed two shootings in this complex and the office responded with “we can’t help who lives here.” Don’t care about their ...residents. The front office constantly closes randomly throughout the week. If you value your safety, I don’t recommend this place. Not to mention the are constantly water stains in the ceiling. I’m pretty sure the apartments have a mold problem. The trash compactor constantly breaks and the trash is always overflowing which is a huge eyesore.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Your next home!
February 15, 2023I have lived here for almost 4 years. And I MUST say, since the new management has taken over, Naryah and her amazing team in the leasing office. Has made sooo many much needed changes, and in such a little amount of time! Their speed, understanding, care and willingness to assist Is absolutely unmatched. Not to mention they do it all with a smile on their face lol. The Ariel apartments are absolutely beautiful, and with all the renovations I can only imagine the finished product. The Ariel ...apartments are located Close to multiple shopping centers ,as well as right off the highway so extremely convenient location. A few other amazing things that they have ,is they come with the washer and dryer‘s, they have a gym on site ,as well as a park if you have children ,and even a dog parks if you have furry children lol The Ariel apartments are for sure a great place to live. And i couldn’t be more pleased with my decision to re-sign my lease. To the staff at the Ariel apartments, thank you for all that you do, have done, and will do!!! It was needed and it’s appreciated.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
I love it here!
February 15, 2023I have lived here for a few years. And I can say since the new management has taken over, Naryah and her amazing team in the office. The Ariel apartments are for sure a great place to live.Review from Apartments.com
Best place to move!
February 15, 2023I see a lot of negative reviews on here. I believe they are due to all of the previous issues with different management. And people may just be a little frustrated. But I have lived here through multiple management companies, and I have to say that the new management is by faaaaar the BEST I have ever dealt with. They should seriously be commended and rewarded for their dedication, and everything they have done in such a short amount of time.Review from Apartments.com
Great place to live.
February 14, 2023The Ariel is absolutely amazing!!! The location the staff, the price, the apartments, the atmosphere I love everything about it I’m so pleasedReview from Apartments.com
Don’t move here!!!
September 27, 2022Don’t live here!!!! I lived in the complex for more than 5 years and each year it got worse and worse. I think the management company changed at least 3 times. The office is RUDE and UNPROFESSIONAL! The complex is full of trash and the breezeways are worse. Residents double park so you can never find parking and they constantly have car break ins. The pool and fitness center are closed all the time because residents trash it. The final straw was the shooting that happened in the hallway of ...a building and the office sent a letter reminding everyone that they are not responsible for anyone’s safety. Do yourself a favor…don’t move here and find a better complex because this one is a dump!!!Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Do Not aren’t Here!!!
June 15, 2019Been here 4 months now and the Only thing good about here is the location. The maintenance shows up a month later after you request to get something fixed! I mean cmon for the amount you pay in rent you would expect some urgency to have a dishwasher with mild fixed and replaced out of your apartment. The front office never answers the phone. Oh and do not have a late payment. Let’s be honest we all have had a late payment here and there. They will file for eviction a day after your rent is late. ...Which is the 6th. Lol that’s not even legally possible! You have been warned! I wish I would of took heed to the these reviews before I moved here. Let’s get it together people.Property Manager Responded
June 18, 2019We appreciate your feedback! Our team is striving to offer top-notch living experiences here, so we are disappointed to receive your negative feedback.

Terrible, a joke
November 11, 2018The worst place I've ever stayed. Management and property management changes every few months and nobody ever picks up the phones. Maintenance ignores you for days on end, maybe even for a week. Overpriced and they nickel and dime you to death with fees that they can't even explain the use for.Review from Apartments.com
Don’t do it!!!!
October 25, 2018This property is by far one of the worst on this side of town. Need something fixed? Plan on waiting at least a month. Don’t go through hard times either. Staff will treat you like garbage if you don’t pay on time and discourage you from using amenities. There are a high number of break ins and vandalism. It’s not safe at all. Upgrades are cheap for the rent to be so high. Very unpleasant community. Trash and roaches everywhere. Please don’t waste your time. They always have specials because they ...NEED the residents.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Very satisfied, Same property new look, New management
August 29, 2017I have live here for over a year now moved and came back. The apartment community now has new management as well as company that took over. This community is under complete renovations inside and out. This is bringing that upscale but still affordable look to the property. The office staff exspecially Shadera is awesome. The staff is very nice, and professional. The maintenance staff are also very professional also and the complete the maintenance request In a timely manner. The neighborhood is ...very quiet, nice amenities with valet trash. The neighborhood is in an excellent part of town that is accessible to I85 and I485 in the university area. Only minutes from shopping malls, movie theatres and grocery stores.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
