January 10, 2026Cleanliness Valentine is very close to campus and is a very convenient living place but the upkeeping and urgency of clear emergencies such as broken glass and spilled things in the elevator being left for 3 days makes me not want to live here. I have noticed mold in the window seals in my apartment in several rooms and when trying to get someone to come out and look they said “it’s not an emergency” as it has been growing for a while now. Looking at other places has been very easy due to the ...lack of concern and problems that has occurred in my short time here.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com

December 2, 2025Didn’t do anything They thought that my window in my room had mold which I already cleaned and told them that. Then he just left and didn’t do anything to the mold on the living room windows which is what I had requested maintenance for.Review from Apartments.com

July 10, 2025Good location, so-so amenities Apartment is a great location for students but there is a lot that doesn’t work. AC units aren’t the best (when they work they’re great), elevators break down every now and then which sucks for people on upper floors, and the gym has no AC making it hotter and more humid than outside. Plus they have a whole other gym which is seemingly closed off for no reason (at least one that was provided). Bad communication and lack of proper maintenance is the biggest ...complaint, but it’s cheaper than the other complexes nearby and in a good distance to school.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Don't live here
October 27, 202310 floors, 2 elevators that only work half the time each, one flight of stairs. This place is a fire hazard waiting to happen, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.Property Manager Responded
November 13, 2023Hello, Thanks for your input. We apologize for any elevator issues that you might have experienced, but all elevators are up and running. Any time we have issues our technicians are quick to being work to repair. Also, just to ensure that we're being clear about our building in this response, there are 4 total staircases throughout the building. Please reach out to management if you have any additional questions, we're more than happy to address any other concerns you may have, we always appreciate feedback where we can make positive changes.
Review from Apartments.com
the worst place to live!!
July 25, 2023they never are at the desk when you need them, there are constant maintenance issues that take forever to get fixed, they dont have lights in the bedrooms, they have the smell of dead rats in the walls, the elevators NEVER WORK and more. They changed the locks to our doors and made it challenging for us to get new keys so I was locked out of my apartment for a long time since they never have someone on staff to help you or answer your call when you need help. I could go on an on. terrible ...place, terrible management, just awful.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
DO NOT LIVE HERE
April 28, 2023The new management sucks and so does the apartment complex. It is not at all worth your money, I wish I had never lived here. The staff also will give you the stink eye when you go to pick up a package. Also theyre closed on weekends and the hours are very shortProperty Manager Responded
May 24, 2023Hello, Thanks for your feedback, we're not sure what to make of the stink eye but we hope that no residents ever feel like getting their packages is a burden, because it's certainly not.

Disgusting, Terrible management
April 12, 2021Terrible property, old and musty with rodent and bug problems everywhere. The management is so bad at their jobs and I don’t think they actually do anything. Student workers are nice at least, but that can’t fix an overall terrible place.Review from Apartments.com
Waste of money!
January 3, 2020DO NOT live here. WASTE OF MONEY. I was waiting for improvement before posting my review, but things only got worse since I moved in. First, I moved into an apartment with a leaking washing machine, clogged shower drain, window mildew, broken windows, a broken fridge, and paint splattered all over the floors and carpet. Repairs like the drain and paint cleanup were quick, but some things took months. The broken windows opened on their own causing flooding in the kitchen, so we had to duct tape ...them. It took numerous requests before our windows were fixed 3 or 4 months later. It also took at least 3 tries before we received a new functioning refrigerator. Aside from these things, I have never had a pleasant experience with the maintenance crew. They've been very rude to me and all of my roommates. Currently it has been at least one week since the trash room on my floor has been cleaned out. There is so much built up recycling that the door is propped open by trash, and we have been unable to dispose of our recycling. This does not help that there are mice in there as well. The only positive is that it is so close to campus, but you are better off living in a dorm or another smaller complex that actually cares about your living experience. I do not recommend anyone ever live here.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
The worst place I’ve ever lived
June 26, 2019This place is disgusting. It seems okay at the beginning but it gets worse throughout the year. It smelled AWFUL every day and there was always a new terrible smell. There is zero sound proofing so you hear everything. The amenities are terrible. Staff is just other college students and are not managed well. The only positive is that it is close to campus and maintenance is okay but that is not worth it with the rest of the cons.Review from Apartments.com
Disgusting
September 26, 2018This place is GROSS. The hallways smell awful because the trashrooms are overflowing into the hallway! I am on the fourth floor and the trash chute is filled up all the way to my floor! So the trash rooms has bags everywhere and mice and roaches. When I moved in my bathtub was clogged. Clearly they didn’t clean if the drains were clogged. Things keep falling apart and they don’t come to fix anything except for lightbulbs.Review from Apartments.com
