    No vinyl in the bathroom
    Chelsea S.

    I know I wrote a review about a year ago about this complex, but let me update you. I moved out because my unit flooded. I received no assistance, basically. The flooding happened at the end of January leaving me in a 1 bedroom 1 bathroom, when I originally was in a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom. I paid full rent. When asked about a reimbursement, multiple times, (per landlord tenant law) I basically was told too bad for February, but we will give you $600 off for March. That's when I threw in the towel and said I am done. It blows me away how management is so easily swayed to lose someone who pays early, never has had a complaint, and is extremely clean, to take their chance on someone else all because they couldn't just reimburse me for something that is law. I was never asked, at the flooding, if I wanted to move out. I was basically told "the damage is not that bad". My APS went from $90 to $250 in the month of February with NO help from management once again. I documented EVERYTHING. Absolutely horrific. The management in these complexes sure do not care anymore about their tenants even though it is law. Photos will show what I lived in for a month in a half and all I received was $600 off between January 28th and March 14th. Seems pretty fair, right? Let's just say I am completely sick to my stomach about this whole experience and I will NEVER recommend this place. It's out dated, it's too expensive, and apparently management has no passion for their tenants. The only person I appreciated out of this whole place was Robert at the front desk. He actually cared but there is only so much he can do. He needs to be management because I feel he would fight for the tenants. I miss Patty as the property manager. Sorry to say it but I do.

    Pool

    I am on year 3 of living at this amazing property. I've never had any issues here. The property is well kept and the atmosphere is tranquil. The staff is great and if I need anything they respond quickly! My favorite amenities here are the pool and the grilling area! Everyone here including the staff is friendly and that counts for alot. I have to say that I feel very safe in this gated community and I would most definitely recommend La Serena!

    I'm been living here for ten years. I just wanted to move to another apartment. The new management told me on December 15,2023 that my new apartment is going to be ready on February 1,2024. Me and my husband take 2 days off for our moving date. We packed all of our stuff. Reserved moving company. on February first , after I got the new apartment key, first we just walked in to check the apartment but unfortunately, it wasn't really ready to move ( a lot of issues ( bathroom, paint walls, floor, window blinders , and many many things) . After I got so upset and mad with the office, they offered me 2 different apartments that I didn't like them because I the level and view. The management told you move your stuff, I'll send the maintenance to fix the issues. So I started to move because I didn't have any choice. Now 4 days past , i moved all of my stuff, but still my new apartment has some issues. I'll share some pictures here for the first day ( moving date February 1th) that you can see how they make the new apartment ready to move. So disappointed.

    I love living here!!! The property is very well maintained and the landscaping is beautiful!

    These are only some photos taken after killing MANY bugs.

It is a resort style apartment which is obvious when you see the outdoor amenities. The pool is huge and wonderfully up-kept, and the outdoor grills, seats, and rooftop area are beautiful. The manager Glenn runs the property very well, he hosts events frequently to get the community together with themed events, and everyone is very friendly there. Maintenance was extremely infrequent for me, but when I needed any, I received it same day and sometimes same hour. Maybe the best part of the standard is its location. One block from the start of old town Scottsdale makes it an easy walk to the many shops, art exhibits, and great food options. I would highly recommend anyone wanting to live in old town to take a look at the standard!!

Ewelina is the leasing agent and she's super approachable. I think I'm getting spoiled here idk if I could ever stand another complex like the others I've lived in

It's never been as close to as BAD as it is right now with Kyndell and co. (aka the clowns) in charge. This place has gone seriously downhill with them and downhill fast!! They focus on the petty things, instead of things that matter to the residents. The apts are nice. But the property isn't well maintained. Dog poop everywhere! Dog pee all over the stairs and landings of stairwells. Newer tenants loud during quiet hours, dogs constantly barking. They'll tell you the train isn't that bad. lol ya ok. ITS A TRAIN!! Not only can you hear it, YOU CAN FEEL IT! Shakes the entire apt. It's bad. Quiet time til 8 am but they have landscapers mowing every Friday at 630am, sometimes earlier sometimes later. If you face the courtyard, every conversation echos, along with kids screaming and dogs barking but it's amplified. Happens at all hours, so you better be a deep sleeper. Parking is an absolute joke. They send Richard the special maint guy to ask for good reviews after he does his job fixing something. That shows you how desperate they are to fix their google rating. Pawning your helper to solicit good reviews? After doing his job, and poorly at that. Pathetic. You will have your package stolen at some point. Probably other tenants. Way overpriced for the crap you have to deal with. It was tolerable before Kyndell, but now it's time to move on. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere. I promise you that. We had our apt tested for mold and it came back positive. They send Richard in with a moisture monitor he doesn't know how to use. Guy says he's never seen mold either! What is he don't making these decisions for such a large company. Everything about this place is now a joke.

    This place runs an unethical business…read more While moving out, they charged me about $150 "broken door handle". The was a bottom screw that came undone on the patio door handle. I never made a maintenance request to fix it cuz it never really bothered me. Had no idea they would charge me if I didn't get it fixed. I asked them for a refund as I found this highly unethical as they wouldn't have charged me if I had made a request. They told me no! Read the lease agreement carefully as they will scam you further more with bs fees like carpet and cleaning. Even if you cleaned and the carpet is fine. Additionally and probably most importantly, the parking here is a disaster. I'm telling you, you will get towed if you sign a lease here. They hire a tow truck twice a week to just come through and pick residents out of THEIR OWN spots. Emily, please reach out to me if you would like to make things right. Apt 4017. UNETHICAL!! Don't live here.

    I moved here in early 2022 when the previous management team was attentive, communicative, and…read moreactually cared about residents. Since the new management took over, this place has gone downhill fast. They increased amenities and trash fees while amenities were closed and trash pickup was inconsistent. They also misrepresented our lease terms and told us a deposit premium would drop off after we renewed our lease. Later they said we would be paying it indefinitely. On top of that, they started charging me $20 a month for renters insurance even though I already had coverage, with no communication about needing to resend documentation. Utility charges for shared amenities have also somehow doubled since new management took over. Parking is poorly managed, gates constantly malfunction, and residents have even been towed from spots they pay for monthly with no accountability. The maintenance team is great, but the front office staff is disorganized and rarely resolves problems. The most concerning issue happened when my husband broke his foot in March of 2025. The elevator in Building B repeatedly broke, forcing him to use crutches down three flights of stairs to get to doctor appointments. For a luxury apartment charging over $2,000 a month, having a working elevator should not be optional. Management also made excuses for themselves and were told they were only then made aware that elevators need routine maintenance and not just maintenance when it broke. We were also displaced for over a week after an upstairs neighbor flooded their apartment and had to fight management just to be reimbursed for the hotel. When we returned, our unit was dirty and damaged, even though we left it spotless. (pictures included) Between the constant fees, poor communication, cleanliness issues, and declining management, this place is not the luxury community it advertises itself to be. It feels more like a money grab. Don't just take my word for it. Look at the reviews from the last few years and you will see the same pattern. I hope management actually addresses these issues instead of continuing to ignore residents' concerns

I waited for two months to be able to move in here and it was absolutely worth the wait. The lush fruit trees provide shade, the tenants are happy with their affordable rent, and the staff is always on site in case there is an issue with appliances or AC. The complex itself is clean, painted regularly, and the yards out front are immaculate. The inside of the units are a perfect combo of drywall and brick, allowing each resident to have some privacy while keeping the temperature cool in the summer and warm in the winter. My utilities have never been so low in an apartment complex, period. I am a single father, and the neighbors are absolutely wonderful with my daughter. It is important to mention that these units are quaint, are perfect for single working professionals beginning their career, graduate students, single parent of a young child, or dual income/no kids couples. The management does allow pets with a deposit. You will never rent from someone that cares as much as the condition of the place you live as the staff and management of Urban Gardens. They truly go above and beyond to care for the people and your experience. I have lived in complexes near colleges or in arts districts before that cater to a party and BBQ culture, which comes with noise, broken beer bottles, and violence. This complex is quiet and friendly. I have had more restful nights at Urban Gardens than I have had in Tempe condominiums that go for 3 times the rent.

After living here for six…read moremonths I can truly say that this has been the best experiences renting from an apartment complex or any home overall. I had a blower motor go out on a Saturday night. The maintenance guy Larry showed up the next morning (Sunday) to fix the issue. I can honestly say it was very unexpected to be treated as such a high priority. I'm truly grateful to have such an awesome maintenance team here at UG. I have a pet and this place is the first place where I feel like he (the dog) is really accepted. The staff sees my dog around and treats him like he's a little neighborhood kid. Super pet friendly. The manager lives two units over and is one of the sweetest people I ever met. She's always keeping up with the grounds and does a great job. The owner Robert really makes me feel like being happy in my home is a priority. He has very much helped make this place feel like home. My neighbors are quiet and friendly as well. Everyone is very considerate of one another. (Thanks guys!) The facility is an older place but still keeping up with the times. I waited two months or so to move in as it was being remodeled and it was a great decision. Rent here is affordable, facility is clean and energy efficient. There isn't a lot of turn over so getting in is kinda tough but well worth it if you can make it happen. The location really can't be beat with all the shops/bars/restaurants around. 10/10 would recommend.

Soltra Kierland was actually the apartment I liked the most from the beginning. However, because of my son's school district, I initially had to prioritize another complex. Unfortunately, that situation became very difficult and left me in a stressful position. In the end, after finally being able to enroll my son in school with special permission, I was welcomed warmly at Soltra. Tracie, in particular, was truly exceptional. When I explained my situation, she didn't just treat it as part of her job. She listened with empathy and understanding to a single mother who simply needed a home for herself and her child. Her kindness, professionalism, and human approach made a huge difference for us. Before and after moving in, she continued to help in every possible way, and we are very grateful.
