We found Premier City Properties 10 years ago and it was such a pleasure to work with Iva (the leasing consultant) she was so friendly and accommodating, making the process of securing short term, furnished housing painless. Aiden, the (property maintenance manager) was also very kind and took great care of the building. The apartment was close to the city, very clean, modern and furnished with all the essentials needed for living comfortably. Recently he was assigned another work project in the Cincinnati area, we were so happy to see Premier City Properties were still in business and we rented with them again. Iva went above and beyond to help us to get him into an apartment on short notice. Selflessly assisting us on Mothers Day to make sure he had a place to stay for a late Sunday night arrival. She is an absolute gem of a woman and top notch professional. I highly recommend this company for short- or long-term corporate/ furnished housing. We have had nothing but positive experiences both times renting with this company. I wish every state he worked in had this outstanding accommodation option!! 5 stars !!!

My girlfriend and I lived in a 2 bedroom apartment here for one year, and for an older, low-mid…read moreincome housing option, it was a nice place to live. Pros- Lori, the current manager, is a really nice lady who is attuned to tenant's needs. She made sure that most of our maintenance requests were tended to within a day or two. The building is nice and clean inside (hallways), and always smelled pretty great. I'm not sure why, but clean-smelling hallways seem reassuring to me. Also, we never found many bugs inside the apartment even though we were on the first floor! Score. The building just got some brand new coin-operated washers and dryers, only a dollar to wash and a dollar to dry, not too bad. The back area of the apartment is mostly fenced in- it was a great place to let my dog out, and as long as I kept a watchful eye he could roam around off leash. This apartment is in a great location, close to Mt. Lookout square with plenty of bars, good restaurants, a nice UDF gas station, and only a 20-30 minute walk to Hyde Park square... a great little outing on warm nights. It felt safe to walk around by yourself, even during the night. Ault park is nearby, the Ohio River Bike Trail connects going south on Delta ave., and the surrounding neighborhoods have beautiful, old houses that are fun to discover on walks and runs. If you are someone who likes being outdoors, running/walking/biking, you'll find yourself in good company and surroundings. Cons- The apartments are old, with ac units and radiator heating- they can get a bit hot in the summer. Not the most energy efficient. Kitchens are tiny. Neighbors/maintenance can be a bit loud and/or rowdy, but that can be expected in most shared housing situations. Delta avenue seems to attract some crazy drivers, especially during the night - we saw a few bad accidents during year we were there, so watch out! We also had a package stolen once from outside our door. We just recently received our entire deposit back in a timely manner, and overall, are very satisfied with our time at Somerset. Thanks Lori!

I lived here for just over a year after moving back to Cincinnati from the east coast. Over 25…read moreyears, I've lived in many apartments: good, bad, excellent. Somerset had a lot of promise but falls on the lower end of the spectrum due to management. Right off the bat, I couldn't obtain, even by paying, extra keys for pet sitter, etc. Had to use a lockbox on a light post for more than a year. The apts are "renovated" (and you pay for it) but it's not done well. My vent fan in bathroom was spitting construction dust every time my neighbor walked upstairs (the walls and floors/ceilings are so thin, you hear everything - everything) and come to find out it's because they *painted over it* when "renovating" the bathroom (tub also peeled the entire time I lived there despite repair attempts). I'd report water damage from unsealed doors and windows and they'd come scrape the plaster that needed to be repaired - but then never repair or paint it. T*ffany the designated contact sent frequent texts with questions like "Did you dump clothing in front of the building?" No, I did not. The one thing they won't text to warn residents about? When two men were breaking into cars in the lot at 4am and pretended to pull a gun on me and pushed me when I startled them. Reported it to building and residents got nary an email. Mgmt enters your apartment A LOT. Like once a month. One time it was to make a list of apts that had various amenities (they don't keep track???). You nearly always only get the legally mandated minimum notice. On a work trip and can't spend 4 hours the next day doing their list to get it ready? Not there to secure your pets? Oh well! They assume no one goes anywhere and can take a half day off work. I was told after year lease that apt would go "month to month" at market rate - LOL. Market rate would've been lower than I'd rented it for, they raised it significantly, then added a "balcony charge" as well as a $200/month surcharge for being month to month. Jumped from $1300-ish to $1800-ish. Needless to say I got the h*ll out of there even though I preferred to not sign another year lease as I want to buy -- that's how much I wanted out. The place is also incredibly noisy - from both your neighbors as well as the outdoors. It looks nice when you look at it but start poking around and it's all smoke and mirrors.

Lived here 2 and a half years. In the beginning I loved it. What a killer view of Mount Adams,…read moreCincinnati skyline and river. I had top of the line accommodations (former unit of a Bengals QB) with a private balcony. Things went down from there. Trash compacter broke and I spent a year hauling my garbage down an elevator and across a parking lot to the dumpster (usually overflowing) Finally fixed. But halls and elevators got dirtier, trash rooms were downright gross, and they had trouble keeping maintenance men. It's expensive to live here, and experience doesn't track with that. Finally, some yahoo upstairs from me decided to fix his own toilet. Water ran thru my ceiling for hours, causing me to slip and fall and break my wrist. I was out of my unit for 5 days. My insurance paid for my hotel. When it was time to return I asked then to clean my unit to the way it was before the damage and was told no. It was up to me to do that. With a broken wrist. I also asked for the 5 days to be deducted from my rent. Nope. They did have my unit mold tested...immediately. Mold doesn't form that quickly. I was done. Did I mention dogs are allowed, and several times weekly the elevator is full of dog urine. And owners walk their dogs across the street to a grass strip, allow them to poo and don't clean it up. It's gross. The management team was fine, it was from the owners that tied their hands. This place needs help.

This is not luxury. The best part is location. If you're a walker you could get to The Levee,…read moreBelluvue and even Cincinnati. Maintenance was poor. Something broke every month we were there. AC and ice maker not working upon move in. AC broke 3 times in 15 months. Ice maker twice. Dishwasher, disposal, microwave all broke. Walls and ceilings are paper thin. I could hear a cough or a dog bark. The garage is open and not at all secure. Dog park is ok but trash was full often and no bags. Per other reviews they were supposed to be upgraded for years and even we were told this. Never was. Community room was down the hall and they had one community event once in 15 months. Managers changed at least 3 times. Susan is nice but honestly was ornamental. No one ever actually walked the property to check on things. Maintenance guys changed every couple months. Sometimes we didn't have one and they'd bring someone from out of town to help. For a few dollars more you can live close by with a pool, a community, better Maintenance and a real view.
