There is a 98% chance you'll regret moving into this dump. The building is of low-quality construction, cheap materials, thin walls and open borders. If you want anyone off the street to have access to your vehicle parked in this garage, this is the place. Break-ins and vehicle thefts are a regular occurrence at this sh-8hole. Ask the sheriffs department how many calls they receive to this building every month. read more

Parking Garage Car Thefts, No Alerts and Amenities That Don't Work I really wish this review weren't necessary, but as a current resident at Oaklyn Apartments for the past year, I feel obligated to warn others--especially anyone relying on the idea of "secure" living. My BMW 4-series car was stolen from Oaklyn's parking garage on March 28, 2025. And mine wasn't the only one--seven cars have been stolen, four in one night, mine shortly after, and another one the very next day. I personally notified management after that last one, and it's clear this is an ongoing issue. To their credit, the property manager (Megan) and a staff member (Brayden) responded quickly when I reported the theft. Megan walked the garage with me and Brayden started checking the cameras. I appreciated that. But here's where things went wrong: * No email alert was ever sent to residents when these thefts were happening. If I had known earlier, I would've left an AirTag in my car to help recover it faster. * Even after multiple stolen vehicles, there has been no real change--no transparency, no clear footage shared, and cars are still being stolen. * One staff member, Charleston, completely dismissed me in the middle of the emergency, redirected help away from me, and only changed his demeanor when a supervisor showed up. It felt performative. I also saw him refuse to help another resident with a simple fob issue--something that takes seconds. Since then, multiple residents have come up to me unprompted with similar concerns. This experience has been not only frustrating, but deeply concerning. Bozzuto and Oaklyn Apartments need to do far more to protect residents and address these repeated security failures. Also--don't be fooled by the marketing. The rooftop pool has been closed, and the grills don't even work. For the price you pay, basic amenities and safety should not be an ongoing gamble. If you're thinking about moving in, ask hard questions about how many cars have been stolen in the last few weeks from the parking garage, how they're actually addressing and putting additional security measures in place to prevent car theft, and what communication you'll get if it happens again. This place might look polished on the outside, but the resident experience tells a very different story. Take a look at the picture. That gray, rainy sky really reflected how I felt the day my car was stolen from the Oaklyn garage--heavy, cold, and completely left in the dark. In my personal experience, the response from one staff member, Charleston, felt indifferent and dismissive. It seemed like he didn't take the situation seriously at all, which was incredibly unsettling in the middle of an emergency. I didn't receive any heads-up that other cars had already been stolen, which I think could have helped me prevent this--I would've left an AirTag in my vehicle. From my point of view, there hasn't been nearly enough follow-through or communication since then. For a place that looks modern and well-kept on the outside, the internal handling of resident safety has been deeply disappointing. read more

They let go the only competent person they had in the leasing office and now it's a dumpster fire. After sending three emails requesting my lease renewal sent to me and being ignored I was met with "patience is a virtue we're busy" UMM NOT MY FUCKING PROBLEM. then when they sent me the lease they tried charging me for my ESA that they KNOW IS AN ESA. They tried to slip in a $40 rent increase even though I have the letter they left me on my door confirming they would renew my lease FOR THE SAME RATE. office staff is a bunch of bafoons. The people that live here are disgusting. People sweat all over the gym equipment and never wipe up after themselves and I've brought this to the attention of management. Not a single thing was done. They took forever to finally open the pool and now that it's open it gets shut down all the time because people SHIT IN IT. people let their dogs shit in the hallway. People are too lazy to walk their dogs so they open the door to let their dogs piss and shit on the sidewalk. The dog park is not a dog park but a bowling alley dog run. No one picks up after their dogs. Most actually take their dogs to the empty parking lot behind the building where it's FULL OF DOG SHIT. I've found half eaten food sat on the ledge of fire extinguishers. And let's talk about how in the last three months it's been almost every single day the lazy bastards that are the construction crews working on the ground level restaurants are jack hammering and making all kinds of noise where you can't even sit in your own house in peace. Working from home is out of the question. Management keeps using a revolving "21st" date residents can expect the noise to subside and it doesn't. DO NOT MOVE IN HERE. there's a reason it looks nice but you'll be mad as hell once you move in. read more

Think twice before moving here. Many of the positive reviews are misleading--written by realtors, incentivized new tenants, or even the owner's wife, who has never lived in the building. Security is a serious concern. There have been multiple stolen cars, break-ins, and burglaries. Despite repeated incidents, ownership refuses to install a security gate. One juvenile offender who was caught said he targeted the garage for several days because there was no security and no one noticed him. If even a minor can identify this vulnerability, it's time to take action. The owner seems more focused on retail parking and construction next door than on resident safety. Management claims to have added more cameras, but many of the crimes are happening in front of those cameras, near the elevators. Worse, the building has three separate camera systems with mismatched timestamps, making it difficult for law enforcement to investigate. Even the Broward Sheriff's Office has requested a gate and contacted code enforcement to intervene. On top of the safety issues, the building suffers from poor maintenance. The elevators, pool, and hot tub have been out of service for weeks at a time--multiple times. There have been repeated water leaks and clear signs of rushed, substandard construction. There's no visible security presence. The so-called monitoring staff are rarely on-site, and often spotted off the property altogether. Tenants are breaking leases, moving out, and even pursuing legal action. Many have issued 7-day notices and are placing their rent in escrow due to unresolved issues. The leasing office is unresponsive, and the property manager rarely replies--often citing personal matters. Although Buzzto is typically a reputable management company, their handling of this property has been a complete failure read more

After trying on multiple occasions to get a 1 BR, Den, 2BA, I moved into the apartment and what a DISASTER! Bozzuto managed the property when I moved in October, 2025 and I moved into an apartment with no shelving in the closets, no bottom dish rack in the dishwasher and did not receive a key fob for 3 days. They told me to just use the App to enter and exit the apartment. Ownership got rid of them after my one month there, but the problems did not stop. I realized that the apartment I loved created a living environment that was not peaceful and did not allow me to be comfortable. The generator for the entire building was located directly under my 2nd floor apartment and made constant noise. The trash chute was across the hall from my apartment, only it was not a trash chute but a compacter and I could hear every time someone used it. I lived in 3 apartments since selling my condo after the Surfside incident because of high HOAs and special assessments. However, what I found is that properties like Oaklyn like to advertise as luxury and all shiny and new but the infrastructure is not conducive for peaceful living for all residents. I hoped that Crown Residential (new property managers) would be helpful and they did try but the building and the accompanying properties beneath it create noise constantly and it is not worth almost $3000 per month for a 1 BR with den. I know other residents are complaining about building noise as well, not from their neighbors next door but from the building itself. All I can say is that everyone should do their due diligence when moving into this property and their brand new sparkling property, PARKLYN because "all that glitters is not gold" because unfortunately you are paying for GOLD and getting nothing close to that and your living experience will NOT be golden. I moved out after 4 months. With everything, you think they would make some concession for me since I tried to be nice about my attempts to correct the problem but they still charged me the almost $6K penalty for breaking the lease. The district manager did not answer my email asking for relief (face it, they just don't care about their residents and their happiness, just the money). However, if you can afford it, one cannot put a price on "peace of mind" and tranquil rest and relaxation in the most sacred of all places: YOUR HOME. read more

Several cars were stolen out of this apartment complex recently and management has done nothing about it. There's no additional security there's nothing to protect us. Also, the rooftop pool has been out of service for weeks grills upstairs never work. The pool is always out of service for what we pay for this building we're not getting amenities. We deserve. read more

A beautiful, clean building with great amenities! Residents are friendly, and building is dog friendly with its own dog park. Fun retail space on the ground floor is convenient, as well as being just across the street from target! read more

I've been a resident since September and this is a really great place to live! The staff are super friendly (and know people on a first name basis) and they're here everyday if you need anything. Any security concerns are addressed immediately so I feel very safe here. Maintenance is always available- there was an issue with a chute door not closing that was fixed after hours on the weekend within 20 minutes. The pool took a few months to be open but it's open now and it's gorgeous! I work remotely and had coworkers here for meetings and it was super convenient to use the downstairs conference rooms and then host them upstairs in the club room for a bit. It's also nice to see everyone's cute little doggies around but also nice that the walls are thick so you don't hear them barking if they do. Great vibes highly recommend! read more

I actually live here ... since October 1, 2023. No-one living here would give this a five-star review. It's a disaster of management. Plus, the main amenity -- the rooftop, pool, grills and dining area -- have never opened. This amenity plus the gym were the primary reasons I rented here. So, I'm paying full rent for something that's never opened. The management company is powerless and consistently blames a disagreement between the contractor and the owner. I live on the the 10th Floor which is the highest residential floor and the most expensive rent. Unfortunately, it's also underneath the gym which doesn't have an adequate acoustic barrier. So, I listen to weights dropping all day and all night (it's 24 hours so there's been the 3am weightlifter that I've had to leave my bed to go upstairs and plead with to be kind). The property is on the corner of N Federal Highway and Oakland Park Avenue with 13 lanes of traffic converging with motorcycles and amped-up cars revving engines. It's super loud. I'm on Day 116 and have endured two and half months of going a mile away to get my mail, lax security (car break-ins) and more. For the same rent, I could have had a similar unit with a working pool, no 24 -hour gym noise, no traffic cacophony and no regrets. read more

Well I really have no idea how it is. I made an appt days before, I had an email conversation with what was apparently a "bot-representative", she was of course not there when we arrived. The agent working already had someone he was preparing for a tour, he offered to take us when he was done, but we had made other appointments so off we went. Hmm. Not a good start. read more
