Felt like I should make an honest review to help even out the comments. I chose to live in this…read moreplace because of how close it was to campus and how cheap the rent was. Since it was so cheap and in a sketch neighborhood, I came in with very low expectations. I always hand delivered my rent to the person in the office, not the mailbox. I also always went into the office if I ever needed anything. They were always nice, but I do think that the management had changed like 4 times in the year that I lived here.Make sure you don't have a nice car because I had two hit and runs at this place and they don't have cameras. If you're a low maintenance individual with an already poor looking car like myself then there is nothing extremely concerning about this place. I actually wish I was still living here because I have since moved into a house with the landlord's daughter who likes to send threats and wants us pay for stuff like spraying for bugs or enhancements on the house.

The current office management staff asked that I write a review of this place. I am moving out…read moreafter 4 years living here. The buildings have good bones, and the apartments are relatively comfortable. It is a safe place to live. Management is a revolving door. Some of the office staff they hire have been nice, and some of them have been competent. The frustration started for me in 2023, when the management notified me they needed to do a plumbing repair. This repair involved tearing out the wall in my bathroom / bedroom closet to address some rusted, leaking drain pipes. This project was started, but then the owners fired that manager for starting too many maintenance projects (according to the manager). I had a hole in my bathroom wall for six months before it was finally repaired. Two years later, they came back and acted like it was an emergency to actually finish that job. This company owns over 30 rental properties in Topeka. They employ their own unlicensed maintenance workers (plumbers, electricians) who complain about the volume of work they have to do. One plumber actually needed to use MY tools to get the job done. Do you want to rent from a slum lord?

Leasing manager is rude and doesn't try to help in any way. This resident is owned by a new company…read moreand tries to get money out of you by anyway. The maintenance is slow and they make you pay out of pocket for cetain tools for repairs.

After finally receiving my deposit back, I can safely say I wouldn't even recommend this apartment…read morecomplex as a last resort. My experience was beyond disappointing and disgusting. The apartment I moved into was in appalling condition. The carpet was still very wet from being cleaned. This cleaning rehydrated the months/years worth of dog urine sitting in the carpet. The stench was so strong and foul it gave you a headache, and the air in the apartment made your eyes burn. The staff repeatedly told me, they were aware of the smell already, that the smell was curry because "the last residents were Indian," and I'd get used to it. It took me pulling up the carpet myself, taking photos of the urine-stained carpet and padding, and lots of arguing for them to actually do something about it. With no other options, I was forced to sleep in this apartment for the night before they would eventually remove the carpet. I spent those 24 hours coating the carpet in baking soda and vacuuming it up just so I could breathe (you can see it soaking through in the photos, wish I could add them on here). Aside from the carpet, the kitchen floor was covered in crumbs and bottle caps. Anything wood in the apartment (the doors, the cabinets, the base of the kitchen counter, etc.) was falling apart. I could go on and on about the state of the apartment. Other important notes: - The property manager pretends to be helpful until she's notified you are moving out. At that point, it's lie after lie, as well as trying to get as much money out of you as possible. - Apartment maintenance is nonexistent. They will mark your request as taken care of, having done nothing and not contacted you in any way. - Maintenance of the actual complex is also nonexistent. One of the bridges that leads to the building I was in broke. This happened seven months before I moved out. By the time I moved out, it was still broken, and they just kept wrapping it in "wet paint" tape to try and keep people from crossing it. - Don't expect to actually be able to do laundry. I was able to do maybe four loads of laundry in the year I lived there. The machines never worked, including after staff told me to go try again because they were "just fixed." - For some reason, it's a common theme to find large piles of animal excrement in various places around the complex. When I say large piles, I mean weeks of animal excrement built up, which then sit there for weeks or months. It's a shame it's in such a nice location with such kind residents.
