    If you are looking for an apartment close to Notre Dame then Irish Flats is where you want to be…read more Close to campus as well as a ton of other popular locations for all to enjoy. I was a bit on the fence when I first signed my lease but after living here for a few months I am ready to renew my lease. The gym in Irish Flats is incredibly nice (and a huge reason why I signed in the first place) because of the great amount of machines and the overall cleanliness in general. I have also never been a fan of tanning machines, however, they have an awesome tanning bed set up on their property that I enjoy using from time to time. It has a beautiful beach themed area where the tanning beds are set up and it is all very relaxing. I currently live in a 3 bedroom apartment with 2 roommates and I absolutely love it. The space is more than enough, the furniture in the apartment does not look used but rather brand new. I've only had a couple issues in my apartment as far as some appliances go but the maintenance team is very reliable and got my issues taken care of in less than 24 hours. Overall, I have had a lot of trouble with past apartments but Irish Flats has been nothing short of perfect. The staff is inviting, the community itself is well taken care of and the apartments are better than all other apartment complexes I have had the opportunity to live in. If you are a student or just somebody looking for an apartment close to Notre Dame with full access to the town surrounding then Irish Flats is the place for you.

    While the amenities are beautiful, the new management has been somewhat lackluster. Given that the…read morecumulative rent for a three person flat is HIGHER than that of downtown Chicago, it is upsetting that the sidewalks outside of the buildings do not get salted, the hallways and stairwells do not get cleaned, and it appears that the bathroom in the gym doesn't get cleaned since there has not been toilet paper in it for a while. These are all things that the old management took care of, as they should, given the high rent in South Bend, Indiana. Service requests are answered promptly and the flats are large and walkable from campus.

Since Village Green has managed it they've put a lot of quality work into it. If you prefer historic quality over the latest amenities, you'll love it too. I lived there for a year. From the very beginning to my last day, it felt like they cared that I was happy. Pamela in the office is awesome and gave us a tour and history of the place, which thrilled my father in law who tagged along to see the school his parents attended back in the day. They don't have a "show" unit because each apartment is one-of-a-kind, so they'll show you the actual units that are available. I ended up getting a 2-bedroom because it actually cost less than the 1-bedroom options - again, Pamela figured that out for me and didn't try to upsell me just because I came in looking for a 1-bedroom. Who wouldn't want an extra room for free? They had replaced all the appliances and polished the hardwoods and my unit was ready for move-in on time. Living there is comfortable and quiet. The building is clean, and the maintenance and custodial staff always say hello! Their resident portal is active and easy to use. Maintenance requests are answered within a day or two. My electric bill was never more than $40/month despite using heat ALL WINTER...I am a cold girl, but the building is so well insulated that it didn't take much to heat the place even with the 15-foot ceilings. There is central air - unheard of in a historic building! You can control with a thermostat but the whole building is on "heat" Oct-Apr and "cool" May-Sept, which is a bit inconvenient on those unusually warm or cold days in the transitional months but not too bad. They do notify all tenants before the switch happens. Parking is plentiful and the lots are well lit. The school is surrounded by grass on 3 sides and there are pet waste disposal bins. We had no issues with security while I was there, which was a concern I had from reading other reviews, but I think since Village Green took over it's been much better. Of course there are pros and cons to old buildings...for instance, the walls are solid and I rarely heard my neighbors, but some of the windows no longer open. There are no laundry hookups in the units, just a shared room on the first floor which is fine but it's a few dollars per load and sometimes the machines chew up your clothes. Occasionally there are people loitering nearby, but that's downtown South Bend. I enjoy taking walks and frequently walked downtown, but always east and never in the dark. To be clear, the area is older and not the best, but the building itself feels extremely safe. Bottom line: I only moved out because I bought a house. Well, that and the second reason, my only true complaint...my lease renewal offer was too high for me to afford, so I can't speak to the value of this place in the future. However, for me, it was perfect. This was the best place I've ever lived.

    First, I'd like to say Anthony from the office is incredible and the neighbors are very friendly…read more Prior to moving here, I was going through a separation with my partner and unaware of the surrounding area. There has been several shootings, as well as two massive structural fires within less than 2 miles around this complex in less than 2 months. Additionally, when I asked if we have cameras in the parking lot I was told no- because there was a shooting in our parking lot that resulted in confiscation of our cameras without return some time back. When reaching out to the property manager of my concerns of safety- because I am a small statured woman living by myself and asked to be able to leave the lease due to heightened crime rate and the lack of safety- Pam, the property manager, did not even bother to try and make me feel any better about the situation. She did not bother to say sorry you feel unsafe and uncomfortable living here, she did not bother making sure I knew if the area was safe, all that was replied with was "You would need to buy out fee. Would you like me to put this notice in for you now?" And was frankly quite rude. This is not a safe area, the complex does not have cameras or security measures, the property manager does not care and concerns will not be made to be better. Thus, I will be living here uncomfortable, feeling unsafe and uneasy for the remaining 9 months.
