As far as apartments go, this place is nice. The units are nice, the property is nice, and it's relatively new. The managers are cordial and decent to deal with. The gym facility is awesome. When our refrigerator leaked, they were good about getting it replaced quickly, and they fixed our oven when it didn't work correctly.
Only complaint prior to move out was that when we moved it, it was dirty. Makeup all over the bathroom walls and doors, and scuffs on the walls. It wasn't painted between tenants... not possible.
Had I reviewed before we moved out, they'd have gotten a better rating. They took $200 from our deposit for random, completely unjustifiable move out charges. $65 for cleaning blinds, $55 for cleaning carpet, $50 for painting. None of these things were told to us before hand... had we know they would charge us to PAINT the place, we wouldn't have touched a wall the whole time we lived there. The place was cleaner when we left than when we got there... so there's no way possible they needed to CHARGE US TO CLEAN IT.
SMI is the management company. I wouldn't recommend their properties to anyone because they themselves are not fun to deal with. I've lived in lots of apartments, and always been a good tenant, and NEVER had anyone charge me ANYTHING after move out. NEVER.
Overall: If you need a place to live, this place is nice and moderately priced, but DO NOT COUNT ON GETTING YOUR DEPOSIT, even if you do their whole "move out check list" and clean like a majorly Type A crazy person like I do. It's obviously a sham. read more
