They allowed me to have my dogs with an extra deposit and allowed me to go month to month when the house I was building was taking longer than expected. I had a few items that needed attention on the property during my stay and they were on the issues immediately and were always mindful of my time and schedule. I recently moved out with normal wear and tear over the almost 2 years I was there and received all of my deposit back. I would definitely recommend Lerch properties to anyone who is looking to rent in the area.

The office actually advised me to use ice when my fridge and freezer went out because they couldn't tell me when someone would be out to take a look. Ive lost my food in my freezer and fridge and wasn't even given the common courtesy of "I'm sorry" or assure me when maintenance would be able to address this. I'm a renter and this is THEIR job to figure this out. I can not wait to move!

I rented with Hartmann for just over 2.5 years. The apartment I rented was 2 bed 1.5 bath with a…read moregarage and washer and dryer hookups! Less than $800 per month! It was the first place I got after my undergrad and was perfect for what I needed. I never had any major issues. The pump on one of the toilets broke and was fixed in less than 3 days by their maintenance crew. Treat the place good and pay your rent on time like a decent human...you will have a great, reliable, and affordable home/apartment. If I did not take a job outside of the Metro East, I would still be there!

I lived here during 2014 and have mixed feelings about it. The review from Ryan A. sounds about…read moreright for the time he wrote the review (early 2014). Larry was the property manager, not the landlord, but nothing ever seemed to get done with him there, at least not while I lived there which, granted, was not very long. HOWEVER, the owner was unaware of what was going on at this time, and once he became aware handed over management duties to a property management company. The last few months of my stay were hectic with the management changes, but the new company seems to be MUCH better at managing the property and taking care of the tenants/units. I have no doubt they will turn the place around. During the management change I had the opportunity to speak with the owner and he seems like a genuinely good person and would not intentionally screw over his tenants. I really loved the layout of the apartments, but I did not particularly like the neighborhood. There are several children in these apartments and that can make for some very noisy summer days/evenings.

The internet, heating, and cooling often go out and the landlord Larry never fixes anything. Many apartments don't have any smoke detectors or have detectors that don't work. Avoid this place.

Don't expect to ever see your deposits or the interest on your deposits, and don't expect the owner to pay for the electricity for outside lighting -- it's all wired to the inside of the units so you get to pay without even knowing it! If this all sounds good to you, then this is the place to go. Otherwise, I advise you move into your local jail; it's certainly quieter!

I can't recommend the Meridian Village Reach rehab facility. My wife spent more than a week there…read morerecovering from an emergency partial hip replacement. While she was there, she showed multiple signs of a UTI, possibly from catheterization during her surgery. I mentioned this several times and was ignored until I showed staff positive results from a home UTI test. They then agreed to send out a urine sample for test, but never got back to us with the results. Subsequent testing at BJC confirmed a UTI and my wife was put on antibiotics. Conjecture by a friend is that Meridian didn't want to report an infection to the state and was simply waiting for her to be discharged rather than taking action. Home care would have been better and safer for my wife.

The REACH program at Meridian is awesome, they are so friendly to my grandma who has had to be here…read moretwice now, they offer activities, bring therapy dogs, bring her snacks sometimes, at first she wanted to go home but now she kind of likes it here, she is still wanting to go home but at the same time she is comfortable here, they are quick at bringing her medicine when she isn't feeling good, the only thing I would recommend improving on is the therapy department here, there is a BIG lack of communication and don't always do the best job they either overwork her too much or they don't do enough at times, but other than that I think if you have to stay here for a short time for physical rehab I think it's a good place to go to. I can't vouch for the other living arraignments or their wait time for placement but as far as the REACH program I say excellent! Thank you for helping my grandma during this temporary hard time

They hold their employees to a high standard, and treat them well. Great food for residents! So many activities and little excursions for the residents to get out and about in the community too. They go above and beyond to make the residents feel that Stillwater is not a facility, but their home and a community. Beautiful apartments for the residents with a lot of unique safety features. I recently helped tour different assisted livings for my grandmother. I think the highest compliment I can give Stillwater is that not a single one we found was as nice, welcoming, and friendly as this place. Every place we toured, I compared to Stillwater. If Edwardsville was the area we were looking for her to live, without a doubt or any hesitation, I would have her at Stillwater!

Mom has commented on several occasions about how she feels safe and pampered. We wish we hadn't waited so long to make the change.
