Terrible Awful Place to Rent

September 4, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
The appartment was over priced to begin with, the floors were installed directly on top of concrete and incorrectly, so there was no insulation and they floors came up in different places constantly. We had 2 seperate water relateed issues, and both times it took them over three days to fix the issue. We turned our keys over early since we had a new place lined up early, and their way of returning the favor is to lock us out of our resident portal and force us to drive a whole state away to drop ...
a check at their leasing office. We never missed a payment, or were late to a payment and were patient with all the disrepair, however, in the end they treated us like trash. I can't recommend looking somewhere else instead enough.

Management team is the worst I've ever seen!!

October 5, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
I would give 0 star if I could!!! I went to ask for the information about payment. Different staff just gave different answers and they don't admit it. They also don't admit what they tell you over the phone and in person, but they reply to your email super slow. All the waiting time and time for emailing back and forth are on you if it is a time sensitive question. Even with the email evidence, they can also have tons of different ways to explain the email content. There is really no way you can ...
do it. They just put whatever amount they want to your portal and saying they cannot change it. There is no way to argue with them unless you refuse to pay and loose your credit.

Best Experience I have ever had with an apartment complex.

June 22, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
To rate my experience living at The Crest I would give 10 stars if it were an option! Not only is this complex extremely affordable for living in Middlesex county, the location is incredible. I am within 15 mins of everything I need! Bagels and shopping centers! As an outdoorsy guy in the summers I love to play tennis at the tennis court and to cook at the grills by the pool. The community is extremely friendly and most people are seen walking dogs and playing with their kids. There's ...
sidewalks you can go for a stroll on between breaks if you work from home. And to top it all off they are building us a gym! Although calm and relaxing this place is a well oiled machine of efficiency! It’s also easy to see that the staff here genuinely care about the well-being of every single resident! When I refer a friend interested in renting Jarrod calls them immediately and helps them. Stevie works overtime to help with anything I need and the maintenance team is quick and efficient. I highly recommend renting here if you are starting the next chapter of your life!

Great apartments to rent!

June 22, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
The Crest is by far THE BEST PLACE to rent in Plainsboro! HANDS DOWN! The management team is professional, friendly, and always ready to assist. Stevie from the management office especially goes out of her way to make sure I receive all the help I need! I can tell that she actually cares and is passionate about her job! Maria also goes out of her way to make sure you feel welcome and helps when you call in with questions. Although rarely occurring, maintenance problems get taken care of ...
promptly! The maintenance team usually comes out within a day when I send a repair request through the app. My apartment was even freshly painted for me! I highly recommend renting here!

Not Worth It

March 28, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
I’ve lived here for a few years. The new management isn’t great. The stairs leading up to my apartment are in HORRIBLE shape and nothing has been done about this. We’ve been told a number of times that the breezeways would be painted and cleaned, but this has also never happened. I am also not so sure about how up-to-code everything else is. There have been TWO major firs in the buildings next to mine within the last few months. After both of these fires, we did not receive any update or ...
acknowledgment from management. Also, the trash company we have to pay for monthly hardly ever actually collects the trash, so our breezeway ends up looking like trash. Between the rickety steps and dirty breezeway, it is embarrassing to have guests.

Decent

April 13, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
Rent isn't too expensive, decent spot in Plainsboro. However, structure is a little old, you will hear the footsteps from the people above you clear as day, so try and rent on the top floor if possible.

Best Apartment in Plainsboro

Nice Experience

I lived here in 2017. I never had an issue. It was quiet, a lovely area, and close to my job. I would rent here again.

Have mice

July 26, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
This place has mice due to garbage sitting next to your door. They charge $30 a month to pick up your garbage from a small can next to your door, when you can put your garbage in the dumpster. Garbage piles up on Fri & Sat as people leave their garage their all weekend & it smells. Now they have Mice, which will lead to Rats. Found a dead mice in front of my walkway this morning. Was not little!! If they take away the garbage cans/pickup. Tenants will put garbage in dumpsters & no garbage ...
will be left out all night & weekends near your doorway. No other complex allow garbage cans near doors due to rodent problems, but the Crest allows it. Becoming a health issue.

Nice place!

July 11, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
We have lived here for about a year now. Overall really great! Nice grounds, nice pool and grilling area. Having a washer and dryer in unit is awesome! Attentive staff and well kept complex

Exactly what we wanted!

June 30, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
Mi fiancee and I moved in about two weeks ago. The apartment managers were great; in so many other apartments, the managers were either uninformed or not as friendly, pressuring you to buy from them. There are many options to choose from, and we got to pick a nice two bedroom, one bathroom apartment which includes almost all kitchen main appliances. Also, the fact that the laundry machines are in our apartment is a huge plus! Another plus is the parking; they do not charge you extra for ...
that. Regarding the community, people in the area have been friendly to us. The Crest every now and then organizes activities for its residents (such as a Pool Party and a Game Truck day), and they have fixed issues we have had of the apartment itself (like fixing the lock of the closet in the balcony). I personally really recommend checking this place!
