Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Excellent staff (in all areas - from maintenance to management), great opportunities to make real friendships with others, a community feeling, beautiful shared amenities (pool, common room, sky deck, gym).

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

I moved here from the Millennium up the street and have been disappointed when comparing Skyhouse to Millennium (now Camden.) I don't like the parking garage being detached. I don't like how long I always have to wait on elevators. I don't like that Skyhouse doesn't have a dogpark. The quality of fixtures/appliances/common areas is much higher at Camden.
Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback regarding your experience at SkyHouse. We are sorry you are frustrated with the parking garage and elevators here. Living in a high-rise community comes with a multitude of perks, including rooftop amenities and stunning views. To reach those rooftop amenities, the elevators can take a few moments especially during peak morning and after-work time frames, and we apologize for any frustration this may have caused. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, I would be happy to speak with you directly. You can reach me at 512-961-6968 or SkyHouse@SimpsonHousing.com; thank you again for your time and feedback.

Robert Rey, SkyHouse Community Manager

Great staff!

The staff are the main reason- Austin is full of new luxury apartment buildings with pools and gyms but having such awesome people working in the building really make it special. Special shout out to Chance and David.

I would not recommend to an established professional. Unless the demographic has changed in the past 3 months. I experienced a handful of disrespectful millennials who used the building as if it was a dorm (no shoes/shirt in elevators and loud in the hallways in the middle of the night.

I would recommend to younger friends but not to friends my age or older.

Location to trail and water, staff, amenities, and community of neighbors.

It's too loud to live here anymore. It was fun when I was going out a lot, but now when I come home, I want to go home to a relaxing and quiet environment, not when where I can hear bands outside every night and where everyone is drunk on the weekends.

Depending on the person or situation, I would recommend SkyHouse to others. I think the building is taking on a younger vibe. Some may like that, others may not.

For someone who wants to live in a high rise in a major nightlife area and who works downtown or nearby, Skyhouse is a reasonable choice. For those who want more space, privacy, or ease of access, it's less so.

For the reasons stated above

It's a great place to meet people and great for access to Rainey. Maybe live here a year and then move some place better

The reasons listed earlier such as happy hours, workout equipment, strict rules at the pool, the garage gate, etc.

I would tell them that it's a great location, but you can get more value looking elsewhere. I believe this is why most people are not renewing their leases. The apartments are small, cheap, and poorly constructed.
