JUST MOVED INTO THE SLUMS

Moved into an apartment that has an infestation of roaches and bed bugs. There is also a huge spot of mold in one of the closets. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy.

beware of this complex! look else where

My apartment was flooded for more than a week while I lived on the bottom floor. I had to rent a carpet shampooer to suck up all the water off a portion of the carpet and when they finally showed up they only brought a fan to fix the flood. Like yes that’s going to fix everything. Maintenance was very poor, treadmills we’re constantly broken. While I was on top of my apartment in keeping it clean. Still had baby roaches coming from god knows where and one tiny mouse showing up every once in a while. Terrible place. They don’t care. Only want to lock you in to get money.

Property Manager at Amber Commons, Responded To This Review

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear about these issues! We have since been under a new management company and are happy to report that these challenges have been resolved.

Beware of this place!

Really bad apartment community. Management and Maintenance is really horrible! You have to literally nag them to get anything done. Office is rarely open - even during their business hours. Once you sign the lease, they will behave as if you are non-existent. Management is untrustworthy and the manager is particularly bad - she is rude and very unpleasant to talk to. Residents do not pick after their pets - so grounds are filthy. Garbage Area is small and becomes really nasty and stinky! Parking has become an issue with the new towing policy that they have implemented. Broken down cars are parked everywhere and mechanic work on these cars and other big vehicles are performed here on a regular basis. Overall, this place is not worth living!

Property Manager at Amber Commons, Responded To This Review

We are under new ownership and new management. Take a tour and see what's new! :)

very kid friendly

This apartment community is a great place to live if u have kids. Its close to very good schools and the neighbors will look out for your kids. But, don't tell the staff none of your business because the whole neighborhood will know your business.
