Prado

Don’t move here. Bad management, bad tenets, dirty hallways, trash everywhere, no wifi ever. So many better options.

During my stay at Prado for a period of a year and a half, I had a lot of issues with management. First, their maintenance crew is a mess. They are completely careless and would go into my unit for routine inspections or work orders and leave absolutely everything on (lights, vents, ac, etc). They would also leave lights and vents on in empty unis which is a problem since I had no way of knowing that they were on and my electricity bills would go up by a lot because of them. I had to struggle with this multiple times and management would not recognize their fault until after weeks of arguing with them. Second, their hallways are very dirty. You can see all kinds of things: open trash bags, dog’s poop, vomit, etc. They do not clean their hallways as often as they should and the smell is really bad at times. Third, even if you ask for a certain roommate preference, they will assign you whoever they want. I literally got roommates who where complete opposites and who I had arguments with. I advise you to leave with a friend if you decide to leave in Prado. Fourth, the move out charges are absolutely ridiculous. This is not only me who is complaining. As you could see from the reviews, pretty much every single resident complains about the move-out charges. I left my room in great conditions and they charge me for charges that were not even mine. I had to pay for almost $400. At the end of the day, it is their word against yours. I would honestly advise you to research all the student living complexes before you decide to move to Prado. I am sure there have to be better options.

If you enjoy a quiet night’s sleep, do not move in here. It’s right across the street from the Block which plays LOUD music until 1-2am with an annoying DJ 6 out of 7 days of the week (closed on Monday). As for the apartment itself, it’s about average. The hallways are dirty and usually covered in animal waste and trash bags. There are so many other better options to live at near campus, keep looking elsewhere.

Absolutely terrible apartment complex. I was visiting from out of state to take a tour of this complex to rent as I am moving down later in the year. The staff was incredibly rude and acted like they didn't want me there. The hallways were incredibly dirty, filled with random debris and funky odors. On top of everything in my short visit to the complex, which lasted just over an hour, they towed my car. It cost me over 300$ to get my car out of impound from their extremely sketchy towing service, and then management wouldn't even return my calls after wrongfully towing my car. Place should be shut down for bad practice and health violations.

Close to UTSA campus and great restaurants and shopping
