Look elsewhere
Highly unprofessional. Moved out a year ago but the time spent her was unbearable. Car was towed twice even with the parking permit. Once I bought my personal parking spot, a random car would be parked in it and it was up to me to report it and it never got towed or taken care of. My apartment had a mold problem that they kept overseeing, I was sick for months on end multiple times a year, I’m assuming because of it because I haven’t been that sick once since I moved out. My boyfriend’s car got broken into, twice. We spent 2022 summer with a broken AC for weeks on end, our duct tape with the make shift AC was literally melting off the window it was so hot. Front desk people are very unprofessional and defensive, instantly opposing you for the simplest stuff. Not worth the price. Not to mention half the apartment units are facing north so half the complex literally never sees the sun peeking through the windows at any time of day or year.

Haven’t even moved in yet and already having issues
Flying in to move my daughter in and the unit has a water leak and won’t be ready. So today is Tuesday but it won’t be ready by next Monday - really? Of course the ironclad lease is always in favor of the landlord. So I have to get hotels and be at the mercy of when it is ready and will they abate the nights she cannot live there? Should have read the reviews. Will post follow up review.

Unsafe, Unsanitary, Unprofessional
Unprofessional, unsafe, and unsanitary. My concerns started day 1 when my apartment wasn't ready for move in on the agreed upon lease start date. During my time here, the staff entered my home on more than one occasion without my permission. When I reported it, my front door oddly was broken and the locks were disabled. The common areas are in disrepair, you can't walk by the dog yards without being attacked by bugs the often the trash rooms were overflowing for days on end with rotting trash, door handles in the stairwells fall off leaving you stranded, carpets in the hallways are stained and torn. They require you to have a permit to park, even with a permit my car was towed 3 times - I was only refunded once. Let us not forget the day someone was kidnapped from the property and management did nothing to address it. Lastly, each time I would voice a concern or complaint, suddenly I received a new bill on my account. They would charge me several hundred dollars and claim it was an "accounting error" anytime I voiced a concern. You are not safe in this building. They do not care for their tenants, their safety, or their health.

Uninhabitable
The noise is unbelievable: road noise from the highway, sirens all night; walls are thin so I can hear neighbors sneezing, pulling open drawers. Security is a joke. The security door downstairs is always slightly ajar (maintenance issue, I think). I was followed into the supposedly secure garage by an unknown vehicle. I was expecting to get carjacked. It turned out to be a guest of one of the courtesy officers. No one takes tenant security seriously. You are on your own. The tenants are forced to pay for Fetch, which adds time and expense to package delivery. I have had two packages stolen/mishandled and tenants have no recourse if Fetch doesn't accept responsibility. There is no customer service number to call, you can't stop paying for it and management will not intervene on your behalf. The ever-changing management can't handle the basics - answering telephones, returning voicemails. I have water damage that has remained unrepaired for weeks. The apartment was given to me with rusted bathroom fixtures and a visibly damaged oven burner (making it unusable). All of which I've complained about, none of which has been fixed. Tonight I found evidence of rodent infestation and I have no confidence that management will successfully resolve this issue. Why? Because the common areas are filthy. The janitorial staff leaves bags of trash lying around the property all day. The hallway carpets are disgusting, stained, and generally foul. I put in an online request for staff to remove a q-tip that the valets had let fall out of someone's trash. It had been in the hallway for a week, moving from side to side as people walked by. Staff finally removed it, but left all the other trash lying around it. The elevators smell of chemicals and wet dog. Someone keeps vandalizing the main elevator and management has taken no measures to either apprehend this person, address their grievance or fix the damage that is visible to tenants and visitors alike. Even the amenities suck. For instance, there is one barbell in the sad little gym. But the plates are the wrong size. Which renders both the plates and the barbell useless. It's a farce. Ownership doesn't care in the slightest. Bottom line...if you can afford to live in this place, then you can afford to live someplace nice. Do not subject yourself to this type of treatment.

Horrible Managment.
This was a great place to live until a recent management change. Unfriendly doesn't come close to explaining the community manager or leasing agent. The previous managers were friendly and took care of things. The property is now filthy, the maintenance team is slow, and the onsite management team is the worst I've ever seen. Much better options out there.

Unfortuantely the building management and person who works the front desk are absolutely terrible. The person who works the front desk is especially awful and impressively rude. He either needs to go to customer service training or let go. Whenever you ask him a question he has a snarky response and has no interest in helping out. The management team also does not do any upkeep in the building. The elevator next to Cole has had a broken ceiling panel with wires hanging for the past two months. The management team also keeps the moving blankets hung up in the elevator isn't appealing at all. We have two treadmills and one has been broken for over 6 months now. I have called and complained multiple times. I am going to reach out to leadership at the management company and reach out to the owner of the building to let them know how poorly its being run.

The LYRA is a wonderful apartment complex with great amenities and staff but the location is the best part! Being in the heart of Knox/Henderson makes it easy to get anywhere in Dallas quickly and it is so fun to explore the neighborhood. You can walk or drive to so many fun restaurants, bars, and shops.

Poor management
I am a current resident, and my roommate and I have always been considerate, responsible tenants, yet the new management (starting in August 2018) has been unfriendly, disorganized, and un-welcoming. They communicate poorly, and their tone is generally passive aggressive at best. I hope for better in the future, as I enjoy living in this area.

Downhill since change in management
Great location and aesthetically pleasing apartments. But terrible service and maintenance. With the change in management, responsiveness and transparency has gone way down. The current staff seems to know nothing about the state of significant repairs, including any sort of timeline. They just blame it on their managers and if they respond at all, it’s with a shrug and an “I don’t know!”. the same way, they were not transparent or helpful about a recent set of robberies. They provided no information about what happened, how things were resolved and what they were going to do to better ensure building and tenant safety. Terrible.

Mostly positive experience
Pros - A Pool that someone finally intelligently designed in an apartment complex to face South so it get's sun all day - A really nice lil gym with kettle bells, and some decent equipment - Close to Knox restaurants - Sweet coffee machine in the lobby - Not to expensive by area standards although Dallas as a whole is overpriced right now. It's Dallas, not San Diego, NYC, DC, San Fran. - There's a DPD safety officer lives here - Washer Dryer in each unit and power and water bill are very reasonable - Staff is nice and friendly. Holding events on occasion. - There's a lil dog area if you have a pooch - Nice granite counters and hardwood floors Cons - Has been some idiot bass playing neighbors and the walls are too thin. Can sometimes hear neighbors - Weirdo across the street power washes the concrete often ruining nice peaceful evenings - $25 a month for trash 'concierge' is mandatory and half the time they don't pick up if the bag isn't tied and throw the cans around. I'd rather not pay the fee and handle the trash myself.

worst place in Dallas
This place is hands down the worst place i have rented from in my life. Rude staff, bad road noise, slow elevators, shared places close at 7pm and closed on weekends. I could go on and on. With so many options in that area your a fool to rent there.

Horrible Choice
I have lived here for almost 6 months and cannot wait for my lease to be up at the end of the year. Many people have moved out or signed short-term leases and not renewed. The apartments are filled with maintenance issues and the property is not secure. Management has been unwilling to help and difficult to work with. Looking forward to the end of this lease.

Happy resident
My apartment is so elegant! It is modern and spacious. The outdoor space are all ways clean and relaxing. Management are helpful and courteous. The location is ideal. I am so happy I moved to Aura and look forward to stay here for a long time.
