Seven of eight recent reviews report serious pest infestations, health code violations, and maintenance failures. One reviewer cited manageable rent but emphasized rats remain unresolved after a month of reporting; management denies the problem exists. The pool has been closed by the health department. The sole five-star review from eight months ago praised one staff member's courtesy, but no recent reviews support repeat business or satisfaction.
Recent management changes have brought genuine improvements in responsiveness and maintenance speed, earning strong praise from newer residents. Older complaints about pest infestations, broken amenities, and chronic neglect under previous operators paint a sharply different picture, suggesting this property is in active transition but trust remains fragile.
Most residents credit a dedicated maintenance crew-particularly Alex, Cory, and Roberto-for rapid repairs and genuine care. One resident solved a kitchen emergency in 40 minutes; another with 15 years in Austin complexes said maintenance here broke the pattern. The trade-off is age: the complex dates; theft and trespassing are real concerns, and security investment appears limited. Location near UT makes it walkable, prices fair. What stands out is the team. Responses arrive same-day or within three days maximum. Texie in the office and the maintenance staff show respect and listen. Yet the older building means ongoing repairs, and without visible security, break-ins and package theft remain issues. Proximity to campus is a selling point for students and commuters.
Five-star reviews praise affordable rent, modern finishes, and nearby amenities. Manuel, a staff member, earned specific kudos for responsiveness and property improvement. However, a large segment reports roach infestations, foul-smelling water, broken elevators, inadequate security, and unresponsive management. Several tenants cite safety concerns and months-long maintenance delays. A refund dispute extends beyond three months post-vacate.
