Was here to quickly visit a friend's apartment and got towed 20 minutes after parking in future…read moreresident spaces, because all visitor and retail spaces were full (and I didn't want to park in residents' spaces). I went to ask them about it the next day and they said they've had a big issue with people parking there and haven't done anything about it except tow people. I asked about putting signage up and they said there wasn't anything they could do. If they choose to stick to a short-term solution such as constantly towing people, rather than a short easy long-term fix like putting up a single sign, I don't even want to consider living here. They were not understanding or helpful at all even when I tried to offer a solution to their issue.

As of today I am in a room 15…read moredegrees hotter than the rest of my unit (maybe 80 degrees), effectively not air conditioned at this point. My sink and bathtub do not drain effectively, and my toilet regularly clogs. I do not use any waxy products and do not have long hair, so this has to relate to the plumbing itself. My room is the size of some closets I have seen and barely fits the bed itself let alone any furniture. The giant "speedbumps" in the parking garage serve to violently jar and shake my vehicle (yes, even when going at or below the prescribed speed) which I suspect has contributed to some suspension damage and alignment issues. I know of multiple instances of vehicles being improperly towed despite displaying a university issue hang tag (with no refunds). The parking spots are also too narrow for a full sized vehicle and only fit compact cars effectively. Regular "fire drills" (read: room searches) from the university admin serve to limit any amount of peace that could be attained here. The wifi has no password (read: public access, unsecured) and is somewhat reliable, but don't bet on it working. The gym is pretty good, and that along with the staff is all I can really praise here. The building is actively falling apart with cracks in multiple walls, and I have been in multiple rooms with foul smells seemingly coming from the air conditioner ducts. I have effectively abandoned any concept of maintenance orders as none have been responded to despite emails, requests, and the dreaded "portal". The trash rooms are infested with roaches as well, but honestly that's the least of this place's worries. Oh yeah, and the train horn when you're trying to sleep. I have posed this review as honestly and cordially as possible. This is not intended as a hit piece, it is just my genuine experience here. I hope in coming years the university makes efforts to improve conditions here, even if it costs them some profits (rent here is higher than some mortgages).

For most this is their first time being away from home. When we moved my daughter out of the apartment, there were no stains or damage to her room. We get a bill for a " stain"( that was not there when we moved her out) on the carpet and scuff marks on a wall( that a magic eraser would have easily taken off, had it been there when we moved her out). Upon speaking to Haley, I was asked, does she have pictures proving she didn't do the damage? Of course not!! Well, she's responsible for it! I told her that neither were there when she moved out, her maintenance crew probably did it if there are marks there. The pictures she sent me or blurry, and no identification of it even being my daughter's apartment. This has nothing to do with paying for damages, if my daughter had indeed made them and they were there when I moved her out! In the picture with the stain on the carpet , it's not even a stain , it's a shadow of the person taking the picture! Not to mention how blurry these photos are, and the steep price tag they want to charge for these. When I said, you're charging this price for something that could be taken off with a magic eraser, and she said I can't speak on that! So that tells me if was probably wiped off and we are being charged for it being painted! Biggest thing is there were no marks or stains in her room when I moved her out. Parents, please let your kids know to take before and after photos!

When I moved in the room was VERY dirty and still had some of the previous tenants stuff in it. To fix this I tried to work with the 'new management', and they were not very helpful, it has now been ~3 weeks since I moved in and the blinds are still broken and nothing in the bathroom has been fixed except the toilet. Only thing they got done, which is a bare minimum, is cleaning the room and the carpet. And just getting that done took 1 week AFTER move in of me sleeping in the living room on the couch where 3 other guys live... Since I had to deal with all of this my first week into school, my parents were pissed, so I asked to talk to the upper management. The manager, Trinity, who was supposed to connect me to upper management, two times I asked her to get me in touch with upper management, and both times she said the upper management WOULD email or call me, and that never happened. I was hoping going higher up the chain could speed up fixing things and paying my parents back for me having to deal with all the problems that the Beacon / Quarters is supposed to deal with (some sort of compensation for all there mishaps which they have basically ghosted me on that) Issues upon move in: - I moved in to a room that still had some of the guys stuff in it from before me. It was FULL of trash - The carpet was nasty and had stains all over it - The blinds were broken - A bunch of holes in the wall - Bathroom toilet did not flush - Someones bidet was left installed... - Sink didn't drain - Exhaust fan does not work in the bathroom - Many light bulbs out Yelp doesn't let me post photos but I put some on the google review if you want to go look at what you can expect.
