Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Helpful staff. Location is great if you're commuting north of the city, otherwise still nice. Less expensive than "hotter" neighborhoods.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Is it really a surprise that I wouldn't recommend this place? Maybe I have high expectations, but at the price I'm paying to live in LOCATION, that's the only thing I'm laying for. Not the apartment conditions.

If someone wants to be a hipster here, then it may be a good place.

Eh, it's alright.

A few days after I submitted my survey, there were a few things that changed my mind about this place. I couldn't get my survey back, so this is my overdue and updated review.

The maintenance folks and Christa are awesome. Christa is very approachable and friendly. General area with their fancy coffee machines are cool. Historic building. Great location for restaurants, small shops and graffiti art. Community events are nice to have. It's a great way to know your neighbors. Neighbors on my floor are nice, except for the condescending guy that got in my face and tried to intimidate me.

When something is broken (garage or elevator), there are no communication emails sent out until two or three days later. A recent incident was when there was no water on a Saturday morning, specifically August 8th, 2015. There was no communication at all and when it was fixed, there was no mention of it. Is this a means of sweeping it under the rug?

I live next to the trash chute and when people don't toss their trash down the chute, there are gigantic roaches that invite themselves into my place. It's rather scary and involves lots of squeals as I attempt to kill it.

In the one or two months that I've lived here, I've had three fridges. Yay, an upgrade! NOT. I had the fridge that comes with the apartment, the second fridge because it didn't circulate and the third because my ice was turning into shards of glass. On May 8th, 2015, my second fridge wasn't cold enough because it didn't circulate well. I had bloody chicken water in my freeze. Salmonella everyone! I had to toss out my spoiled food, including a brand new bag of chicken, green beans, dumplings, mixed vegetables, etc. No offers to decrease rent.

There should be more mirrors in the garage like when you're entering the garage. I often feel like I'm going to run into someone or someone is going to crash into me. Fun.

Apparently my AC wasn't working correctly for four months. There was apparently a leak or something wasn't connected properly. The filter was disgusting. I don't know much about keeping a house up to date, but I expect a filter to be in decent condition. There is no way I can check leaks when I first move in. I was wondering why my electricity bill skyrocketing and now I know why. No offers to decrease rent bill.

The freight elevator is usually broken despite leasing agents (Christa) letting the new movers know. Thanks for ruining it for everyone else. There are lazy people like myself that like to take elevators.

When my friends visit and tell me what an amazing place this is, I tell them to watch out for dog poop. They usually stop, mouth gaping open and ask me, "Are you serious?!" Once there was a human size poop PILE in the hallway for three days!

Have I brought these matters to the agents attention? Yes, the fridge and spoiled food, but there was no action taken on their part. Why bother with the rest? For the price I pay, I expect things to be in working condition with constant communication. I expect them to be fair but this isn't an ideal world.

Being new to the area, the property was in an excellent spot. There was so much to offer around the area. It was near all highways and the property itself was full of history.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Enforce pet waste disposal/keep pet areas clean. Provide adequate pet disposal areas. Flooding in stairwells when it rains. Inadequate overhead lighting in apartment. Inadequate sound proofing. Had to provide our own hand towel hardware.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

The team at 2125 Yale right now is truly perfect. All 3 leaders in the leasing office are excellent. The maintenace staff is awesome, too. Everyone is always friendly and super helpful. Community can be improved by pet owners cleaning up after their pets.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Staff is very polite, friendly, and willing to help with anything. Rent remains reasonable, considering the area we live in.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Wonderful managers, love maintenance! Everyone watches out for our safety! Thank you all for being so attentive. Only hope is that treadmills get updated.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Overall this complex offers a great location. The staff is quite helpful and very nice. The apartment has good amenities and the lounge area it's very well maintained. My only suggestion would be the chose of the lighting int he apartments, it feels kind of dark.

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Awesome sauce leasing staff Christy & Brittany are the Bomb.com. LOL

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Wonderful follow through from initial tour to move-in from entire staff but Brittiani went above & beyond any leasing agent I have ever worked with & has continued to help me in every way she can now that I am a resident! Love this complex & the entire staff!

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Brittiani made the move in process easy, relaxed & supportive. She takes the time to learn every residents name, personalizes the experience here, and is always great to see!

Apartment Review from a Current Renter

Great interaction with leasing office - part of the reason we moved in. Good upkeep of apt grounds. Could offer trauma services for residents who get stuck in the elevator. Could be more specific with action taken by maintenance when entering apartment. On several occasions they said one thing and did another. Also not very clear on what they are capable of repairing. Seems to have to "order" several replacement parts constantly.
