Rent is too high. First, listing for the apartment is misleading. Upon moving in in May 2022, it has units as if the assumption you're moving in w/ a roommate. I expressed I wasn't a student, they moved me in at $765/month, only to be told months later "they made a mistake." Before my lease ended the first year, tried to work w/ them to work something out or be grandfathered in, bc in the current climate over the past 1-2 years, doubling someone's rent off a "mistake" where there's been constant shift w/ management, leasing personnel, etc. is inconsiderate. And for a complex that advertises themselves as "college friendly", they do not work w/ people and everyday struggles, personal issues, at all. Most college students don't come in w/ full-time jobs, so to charge late fees by the day, constantly keeping people in a hole, not taking partial payments, having leasing staff cold transfer you or hang up in your face when you're trying to speak w/ property managers. No profrssionalism. The "maintenance staff" are up early every morning just to talk loudly on the phone and gossip about their personal lives rather than fix basic things around the complex. The entry gate on the east side had been broken for MONTHS (at least 6), but maintenance would purposely close them knowing tenants needed to get in but fobs don't work bc the entry point is broken. And if something happened w/ non-tenants entering or God forbid a theft, they blame the tenant as opposed to taking responsibility as a staff and a property management group. Upon moving out, forcing tenants to have keys and all things out by noon on a weekend when some people only have work, other things on their schedule is inconsiderate and just flat out inhumane. Then you have staff purposely walking around looking to charge you if you're not out by a certain time, threatening you to charge a whole month's rent for being a fee minutes or hours over. Moving is physically, mentally and emotionally taxing on all parties and to literally hold that over people's head an threaten to purposely add fees just bc a person may have opposition to that is literally evil. I turned my key 30-40 minutes late ONLY for the sole purpose of being able to get back in as I still had stuff to move and didn't want to be locked out of the complex, and everything was fine when I explained that when I dropped them off. Just to have the regional manager - black lady, do not know her name - go behind and purposely charge just bc I was not out at 12pm on the dot. When trying to explain that hey, it's been only me, the one person I had helping came later, she did not show any empathy or consideration and went back in the office again and told office personnel to charge $75/hour as she seen us getting everything together. Vindictive. No humanity, empathy or anything of the sort whatsoever. No one benefits from the fees, you clearly see people moving out, there's no tenant moving in that same day, the fees aren't a bonus for apartment staff or are added on as a commission so what's the point? All the negative reviews that have been left via Google or otherwise over the past few years especially recently will not go unnoticed. This complex and the company running it really need a reality check and to learn how to work w/ people. As someone who runs an after school program and works the front line w/ kids, family and community every single day, my experience w/ Muse has been unacceptable and would not wish it on anyone. There's so many other things and negative experience I can share and have shared before in these reviews. I hope people continue to share their negative experiences and expose what's been going on. read more
