The shuttle drivers will occasionally buy lots of food for students to take in the morning and have little events with free food. It looks far off campus but it's pretty much a 5 minute straight shot to sample gates. Stuff in the apartments is definitely built cheaply but it looks expensive at first glance, and as a college student I'm okay with that. Along the same lines, if something breaks they'll send someone to come fix it pretty much within 24 hours no matter what it is and I've never been charged. Shuttle situation was a small mess at first but they just purchased another shuttle that'll be working next semester. Only complaint would be that finding street parking can be hard sometimes at night because it's free, and I'll have to park in a fire lane until a spot opens up in the morning. However, they don't tow or ticket you if this happens unless you park in the middle of the road and someone complains. Overall, I've really enjoyed living here.

However, the student workers in the office are extremely nice and accommodating. With that intro, here are some things you should know about reserve on third before you move in: 1. This is the most important: reserve on third is owned by the massive corporation Scion. You're basically living with a company like Amazon. Don't expect them to actually care out your needs. They are a money making operation and have left a pretty sour taste in my mouth personally. 2. August rent is due on the 1st, but you will not be allowed to move in until mid August. A bit jank if you ask me. Essentially you pay for all of August get less than half. 3. The location is a decent ways from campus. However, the reserve on third bus is incredibly useful. I only wish they had a tracker app or something for it because it can be late during heavy traffic times. 4. They do quarterly inspections. Not only is this kind of privacy invading because they will not tell you what time they are coming or even in some circumstances on what day. Which you can imagine would be frustrating because what if you have company over or something. Also they will charge you for any tiny thing they find wrong. They charged me $25 for a small tear in a blind. I expect they will be penny pinching and charge me for something at move out too. 5. Pre covid, they did throw nice events which were enjoyable as a resident. They also made a decent space to meet new people. 6. Just like any complex they will not explain the full terms of your lease. I recommend having a trusted adult look it over before you sign. 7. Pets are "allowed" however the limitations are VERY strict. No snakes, no rodents (rats, hamsters, etc), only 1 pet per apartment not per roommate, also no dogs under 1 year old or over 40 pounds. 8. This is personal to my apartment, but if you turn the oven above 350 or boil water or cook bacon the smoke detectors will go off. This is the thing that drove me to move out. I can't cook anymore. I hate not being able to cook in my apartment with a kitchen. The smoke detectors drive me absolutely crazy and no one from reserve will help. 9. There is adequate parking for you and as many friends as you want. This is nice because I never had to worry about finding a spot. 10. The gym is nice and open 24 hours. The gym is very small though and does not include any stationary bikes. 11. They have a room computer with a printer which is pretty much always available. Don't expect the printer to work with any consistency. However, if it is during the day the office staff will generally print anything you ask them too if the printer is once again out of service. 12. The complex is always well maintained. The pool did get sandy when it was open but other than that the grass is always bright and groomed and the outsides of the buildings are clean. The gym, office, lounge areas are also always very clean. Props to the maintenance staff at reserve. Speaking of staff, the bus drivers are also extremely kind. 13. The main doors to the buildings do not lock. Meaning anyone can enter the complex at anytime. I personally don't like this and wish they would've installed key pads or something. It's basically the same as anyone being able to come up to your dorm room on campus. 14. You can see from the picture the space is very nice. The apartment was clean when I moved in and the space has kept up well. Good value for what I paid living in a 3x3 which was 509 plus electric. 15. Expect a raise in rent each year you choose to sign again. Not a ton but about 30 Overall Reserve is pretty similar to other apartment complexes. I can say definitively it wasn't for me but I think for some it is probably a good fit. Update: I want to add that a reserve on third staff member reached out to me about my review. They actually thanked me for my review being well rounded and said that my concerns about the complex were all being taken seriously and gave me space to voice my concerns! I find this extremely kind and generous of the reserve on third staff. I want to emphasize that the office is doing a great job, and my main concerns for the property come from the larger corporation. I think reverse is trying to do it's best but they only have so many resources. My intentions of this was just to provide a more detailed description because I know choosing a property is hard and many of the reviews on here seemed one sided. Although, I guess who really even reads yelp reviews anymore?

If I could give this place a 0 star I would…read more DO NOT LIVE HERE !!!!!! Where do I even start on how shit this place is. When I first moved in there was a small soft spot in the entry way floor. I reported it to maintenance they came in while I was not home and claimed that they could not find it. Through out the 2 years I lived there the soft spot just kept getting bigger till I was not comfortable walking through my own apartment. I had reported this problem 4 times before I was even told that it might get fix. And that took a year and a half, and me contacting the city of Bloomington. Maintenance will come in without notification, even though you are supposed to be notified before they enter. We would usually get an email saying they were coming in after they had already been in our apartment. They will claim that they knock and then yell when they come in. But it happened numerous times where they would knock once and then walk in while we were asleep. They also did not inform us that over winter break they would be installing a vent into my room. I came back from winter break to half the stuff in my room being moved and them trying to hide that a vent had been added to my room. They moved a lot of my stuff in front of the vent so I wouldn't notice. And to top off the shit storm that is this place the office will not answer you if you call, or email. You will be put through an AI thing to see if you actually need to talk to a person. And if you do get through you will get people who argue with you or just don't know the answer.

What the heck?? Some of the leasing consultants are polite for sure, but the management there are rude and disrespectful. They definitely did NOT inspect the apartment after the previous tenants moved out and you're paying an INDVIDUAL lease, meaning instead of splitting the base rent you are paying yourself, this sounds nice until you realize that you are paying a substantial amount greater than you should $835 per person is ABSURD for this place Don't go here, They treat their tenants like crap

The apartment was barely cleaned prior to my roommate and I moving in, and some things looked like…read morethey hadn't been cleaned in months if not years. The ceiling fan had a large collection of dirt, the windows sill had a ton of built up dirt, and there were tons of cat hair in the drawers. There were also fleas that bit us. In order to fix this issue and many orders we had to continuously call maintenance who would much rather argue about the issue than fix it. There was no working heat in one of the bedrooms and they refused to check the furnace and instead opted to close the vents. The finishes in the apartments are also fake, though they call this a luxury apartment. Absolutely terrible experience living here.

Incredibly safe and convenient location. Designated bus stops to get to campus, or easily about a 5-min drive to my portion of the campus. Grocery store options are plenty - one is even walkable! Parking is plenty and tenants are mindful of each other by honoring quiet hours set by management. Speaking of which, the team of people on staff are great! Always professional, and very prompt replies. All questions or concerns that came up were answered quickly and thoroughly. Maintenance requests were attended to promptly, as well! The price might be a bit higher than other rental options, but I felt it was definitely worth it. Presentation of the space (grounds kept clean and clear), along with attention to maintenance requests in a timely manner, gave me such peace of mind as someone new to the area. I felt safe and supported. I really enjoyed the layout of the one-bedroom unit, too. Lots of privacy.

After living there for 2 years, I moved into a single apartment after graduating. This marks my fourth and last year with Covenanter (I have relocated for a job). After living here so long, I know the maintenance and manager office staff by name. I have always felt like they have been friendly and done their jobs well. In 2013 a pipe leaked in my roommate's sink and they fixed it quickly and re-patched the entire affected area of the ceiling. They did a great job. Kudos to Adam/Rick with maintenance. With the 2 br/2.5 ba, I loved all the space in the lower level and the way my roommate and I could have some space to ourselves on the second floor. Plus 2.5 bathrooms! It's so nice to have two full baths and a powder room downstairs. When I moved out of the 2 br, I got most of the security deposit back and they were very fair with deductions. The single I was in had cathedral ceilings and seemed much bigger than the actual square footage. No it's not the most updated place, but it is not anywhere close to the worst or least updated place I have lived. They have all the appliances except a microwave, which any former dorm-student should have. There's always a lot of light and beautiful mature trees. They have a community garden that you can sign up for each year and a nice pool. The vibe is very relaxed and quiet. Maybe I was lucky but I rarely heard my neighbors and when I did, it was tolerable. I miss the proximity to places. The East side is great. From Covenanter you can walk to the mall, Kroger, UPS, Pizza X east, etc etc. Out of all the places I lived in during my 6 years in Bloomington, this is by far my favorite. I think it's a nice neighborhood and Victoria is a great property manager. I sincerely miss living down here. TL;DR: This is a nice community. You're surrounded by nature and it has a relaxed vibe but you're also close to everything and on 2 major bus lines. The updates are decent and while it's not like everything is brand-new, it's not old either. Staff all around are great: friendly and helpful. I don't regret living there and would recommend it to anyone.

The apartments themselves are small. Everything (especially appliances) is old, dingy, and dirty. Don't let the online pictures and model apartment fool you. I'm constantly having maintenance issues in this apartment- heat/ac, the dishwasher, plumbing, etc. I've had problems with almost everything. The carpets get cleaned during the summer so they weren't bad when I moved in but everything else was absolutely disgusting! I was once without air conditioning for days in the middle of summer and the heat broke down in the winter once and they took almost two days to come fix it even though it was an "emergency" issue. Maintenance is slow at fixing everything, but at the same time I realize they have so much to fix daily because everything is so old and is breaking all the time. The office staff is nice- I've actually gotten to know a few of them! But the managers (except for one) are awful. They're rude and will pretend to listen to your issues, then will blow you off and do absolutely nothing about it. I unfortunately got stuck with the most awful roommate imaginable and the office has done NOTHING. I could write an entire book about this situation... I provided the office with 7 pages of incidents with my roommate (stealing things, harassing me, creepy behavior) and they have done nothing. The roommate mediator is supposed to set up a roommate mediation. However, after a couple days of trying to reach my psychotic roommate, the mediator contacted me and said we would have to set it up ourselves... even though that's literally what she gets paid for. So of course, nothing ever happened and I have been left with no other choice but to move out for my safety. Last summer I got a bill from the office out of nowhere saying that I owed almost $200 in late fees. The charges on the page didn't add up, after taking the bill to the office and having it reviewed they realized they had charged me over $100 more than I actually owed... this place will steal from you if you're not careful! The only good thing about this place is the all-inclusive rent and the decent amenities. I highly recommend avoiding this place like the plague... it is absolutely awful in every direction. I could go on and on about unnecessary things I have had to deal with here but I think I've made my point.

I am a graduate of the IU Kelley School of Business living with a traumatic brain injury. Over the past several months I have made repeated, good-faith attempts to access basic alumni networking resources. My requests went entirely unanswered by Mr. Melvin, the head of the Kelley Alumni Association. When I took the step of notifying Kelley faculty of my concerns regarding how the alumni association is being operated, Mr. Melvin responded not with assistance, but with a threatening letter. Within that letter, Mr. Melvin explicitly stated that Mr. Eric Rodkin, Safety & Security Specialist at Hodge Hall, had been assigned to monitor and inspect all of my emails. I have a copy of this letter and am prepared to provide it as evidence. I must be direct: this is not a minor administrative failure. This is retaliation. A university alumni director used a physical security employee to conduct surveillance of a disabled alumnus's private communications -- solely because that alumnus raised legitimate concerns about the performance of a publicly funded university department. This conduct is deeply troubling and I believe it raises the following serious concerns: 1. RETALIATION - I was threatened and placed under surveillance in direct response to exercising my right to voice concerns about a publicly funded university department 2. UNAUTHORIZED SURVEILLANCE - Mr. Rodkin's role is limited to physical building security at Kelley. He has no legitimate authority to monitor the private email communications of alumni 3. ADA VIOLATION - As a person with a traumatic brain injury, using intimidation and surveillance to discourage me from accessing alumni services may constitute discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act 4. ABUSE OF POSITION - Mr. Melvin's use of a security employee to threaten and monitor an alumnus is a serious misuse of university resources and authority Mr. Melvin's Email Joshua, We are in receipt of your recent messages directed toward our faculty and staff.
