What we found

Revolve splits sharply: prospective tenants consistently praise the modern spaces, pool, and staff warmth during tours (particularly Janaye and Alexandra). Once moved in, residents report a starkly different experience: rampant roaches throughout the building, neglected stairwells and hallways, a recently imposed guest parking fee structure that charges $25 per visit after four free monthly parking days, and management that becomes unresponsive when maintenance issues arise. The broken garage gate and unsecured doors raise safety concerns; an extended homeless encampment near the building prompted additional worry. Those who receive responsive staff support speak highly of their community, but the pest infestation and cleanliness lapses dominate recent long-term resident feedback.

Security and facilities maintenance appear inconsistent. Staff like Alexandra and Janaye excel at tour and onboarding experiences, yet complaints suggest the property struggles to address systemic problems once tenants are locked into leases. The parking policy is particularly contentious, framed by residents as a revenue grab rather than a fairness measure.

Praised for
  • staff friendliness and helpfulness during tours and move-in
  • modern design and amenities (pool, clubhouse)
  • diverse, welcoming community
  • responsive management for some residents
Watch-outs
  • severe and widespread pest problems, especially roaches
  • poor communication and avoidance by leasing office when issues arise
  • aggressive guest parking policy ($25/day after 4 free visits per month)
  • broken garage gate and security vulnerabilities
  • filthy common areas (hallways, stairwells rarely cleaned)
  • safety concerns (homeless encampment, open dumpsters)

Resident ratings

Luxury Apartments
Modern interiors and amenities praised; maintenance, cleanliness, and safety lag sharply once residents move in.
Pet-Friendly Apartments
Pet policy welcomed, but persistent pest problems undermine the pet-friendly appeal; no on-site dog park mentioned by residents.

4.0(165)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Half the reviews celebrate the location, staff responsiveness, and amenities; half report systemic neglect that management has refused to fix. Fire alarms trigger nightly without cause, trash rooms overflow for months, pests infest common areas, and poor construction (thin walls, faulty infrastructure) makes units uncomfortable. One-year residents describe these as known but unaddressed problems.

Fivetwo at Highland

Leasing staff Luis and Sophia earn consistent praise for attentive, personable service that cuts through move-in stress. The Highland location near ACC serves students and commuters well, and the units deliver spacious layouts with natural light. The property itself appears modern and well-designed. But the community struggles with slow maintenance, where repairs often take 2-3 weeks or go incomplete, and an expanding fee structure that leaves residents frustrated. Parking garage changes have displaced lower-floor residents far from their homes. Several reviews document broken door locks, security gaps, and vehicle break-ins despite the gated design. A disabled resident noted the new parking policy creates accessibility barriers.

Ella Parkside

3.3(173)✓ Google-verified

Ella Parkside draws sharp praise for individual leasing staff who go out of their way during tours, but residents report a stark divide between promise and delivery once they move in. Pool maintenance collapsed over summer months, trash rooms overflow, and management becomes difficult to reach when issues need solving. Deposit disputes and unresolved maintenance requests leave long-term residents frustrated, though a handful report positive years when staff turnover stabilized. Staff turnover appears to drive inconsistency: newer residents with attentive leasing teams contrast sharply with multi-year tenants describing a property in decline. The property advertises luxury amenities yet charges premium rent while delivering college-dorm-level upkeep. Tenants pay $30 monthly for a package room plagued by theft, and common-area access is limited by early door locks.
