    Pool
    Kashara B.

    I don't live here but my friend does and I love coming to their pool! It's super chill and when you walk in the smell hits you and it's so fresh. The pool has a grill and sitting spaces. Their security is top notch too. If I didn't own a home, I would definitely rent here! They have so many amenities.

    Beautiful kitchen! Open floor plan.

    Beautiful, upscale community in River Oaks. Stunning, luxurious amenities that feel like an extension of my home. Excellent customer service providing a white glove experience. Top of the line community.

    Random capture of the pool

    Car theft, broken elevator, pee pool, can't sweat in gym, care looks but not user-friendly There were non-residents like TV shows crew shooting around. Recently there was a car theft, not sure if high profile propaganda attracts thief. The main elevator has been broken for several weeks, no results so far and very inconvenient. Every weekend pool parties with large crowd, not sure if they live here, people chat and soak in pool several hours without need going toilet which defies human logic. Thought I could do some serious swimming before move-in. Water quality in pool concerning. Try to go gym, the gym is set at freezing temperature from 68 to 72, to make sure you don't sweat much and dry unnaturally fast, rather than investing in air purifier. Only used it once. If you think the above make you comfortable, go ahead. Everything is not consider from resident angle but for keeping looks and easy management. Do not conceive by the display they won't care your satisfaction or comfort. No flexibility in a free country, felt like prison. Hence this one star review. Improvement takes action rather than speaking.

    Pool is our favorite!

    Taylor Heights is truly one of the best apartments I have ever lived in. I feel like every…read moreapartment has their pros and cons but here I feel like the pros outweighed the cons. I think the management here is stellar. They try their best to get things done in a timely manner and are friendly. They have to live in the apt also so they are aware of issues happening in the building. I liked that housekeeping regularly cleaned the carpets. The maintenance here was phenomenal. Polite, friendly, and got their work done! They have a nice pool and hammock area. I truly felt safe here. Cons were the freaking doors would break often, but you get used to it. Their emergency maintenance needs to be updated. I left my key outside during a weekend and the emergency maintenance did not answer the phone.

    I have lived here 30 months, and I don't recommend, I get ignored by the leasing office and no one…read morereplies to my emails or my concerns. After spending 50-60k here you would expect some kind of "customer service" . Very disappointed in the complex, the back area smells like feces , there's dog urine by the front where guests enter, the carpet in the building needs to be cleaned. When my dryer would be moldy, they told me I needed to keep my dryer door open, when I asked for my vents to be replaced they told me it's "cosmetic" . For what you are paying you would expect better service. In the beginning when I got here it felt like home, now I have no words to describe my experience here.

    The apartment is a lemon. Move here if you want to spend your time coordinating repairs to your…read moreapartment. Your first impression is very positive. It looks modern, the amenities are nice, the staff is friendly, and the location is hard to beat. I have lived here for 2.5 years, and the reality is different. This place was built 2016-2017 and clearly by the lowest bidder. In the time I have been here, my air conditioner has broken 13 times (really, 13). I've had a major water leak that flooded my closet and left us without some interior doors and drywall for a month. We've been moved out of our apartment for a week for them to do major construction for defects from when the place was built. I average at least one broken thing a month. The grills don't always work, once a month the gym is a sauna. Water leaks from the ceiling. The list goes on and on. The maintenance team is very responsive, but they are hamstrung by management that is more concerned with saving money and doing as little as possible. For example, today the manager told me the AC is not broken, it just doesn't work when it's hot out. Got an issue after hours? Not their problem they will tell you, even though they live here. With all the great apartments being built in this area, it's hard to see what 1 Hermann Place offers that the others don't. Move here if you like to be frustrated. Move somewhere else if you want to come home and not deal with maintenance.

    I leased a corporate apartment at One Hermann Place while receiving medical care at the Texas…read moreMedical Center. The line staff at the building is wonderful -- from the attentive and caring concierges (Jennifer, Stephen...), to the helpful shuttle driver, Aaron, to the rental agents, Jackie, Crystal and Eysha. The building is lovely and the location is wonderful. But when there was a roof leak that flooded several apartments, after several days of equivocation, it was determined that I needed to move to another unit. I, and all my possessions, were transported to a unit which had never been cleaned of construction dust, and never been made fully ready for occupancy. But rather than try to make things right as soon as possible, the manager, Carrie, deflected responsibility, dragged her feet and made the whole experience pretty miserable. When I left several weeks later, the washing machine had finally been hooked up to water, the dishwasher had also been connected to water supply, the dead circuits in the master bedroom had been activated, and after about a week's delay, the apartment had been cleaned of sheet-rock dust. But the ice-maker was never made functional, Carrie never apologized for any inconvenience, and she remained as supercilious and rude to me as I observed her being to her staff. She spoiled what would otherwise have been a singularly positive experience in Houston.
