Property Ratings at Riverside Apartments
im sorry, but i will never recommend someone to live here. im completely appalled on how the first management team handled my first 6 months of living here, although new management seems nicer… there needs to be more communication, understanding, and speediness. they like to dismiss problems and come up with their own ideas of what is happening in your apartment and not be urgent
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
Hello, We would like to apologize in advance for any miscommunications that may have happened. We are working hard to resolve any issues and move forward with residents feeling at home here at Riverside.
Staff very helpful, but hard to reach and seems like many repairs are frequently needed to maintain just simply living in a space…
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
Hello, Thank you for checking in. Our apologies for not being able to answer the phone but we do want to invite you to drop by the office or send us an email and we will get back to you shortly. Please let us know if you have any repairs that are needed. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Worst decision to move here. It’s basically lipstick on a pig. Advertised as “luxury living” but it’s anything but. Roaches everywhere, stairs and hallways are disgusting, pools are never cleaned, maintenance requests take 5+ days to get answered even if it’s high priority, tons of bike thefts and car break ins. Leasing is a revolving door of managers. It’s a nightmare.
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you for your review. We would love to discuss further about your experience you are having living at Riverside. If you have time to stop by the office, please do so. Thanks,
It's a great apartment. The neighborhood is very quiet. The apartment has great transportation nearby as well.

I have had nothing but a nightmare since I moved in. Maintenance and office staff do not do what they say they will. I have multiple issues in my unit that keep not being taken care of. They don’t ever answer the phone or respond to emails in the office

Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day!
Riverside is a fantastic upgraded apartment community next so so many things, rents a bit high but this place makes me really happy to be a resident at. The kitchen is one of the nicest I have seen within this price point with under cabinet lighting and a great backsplash, straight up awesome. Learning to live in a studio size place but it’s cozy. No bugs in my upgraded unit. Thanks Riverside and Greystar

I would never live here again. The only positive thing was that there was no security deposit.
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
Hi, we regret to hear that you had a negative experience with us, but would appreciate the chance to turn your experience around. Thank you, Riverside
We love how quiet the surrounding neighborhood is, but we’re just a quick walk or drive away from downtown
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
Hello, we strive for 100% satisfaction, and it is great to see you had such a positive experience at Riverside.
An old apartment complex with particle board cabinets, that’s been painted and has nice appliances. Essentially lipstick on a pig.

I've been at Riverside for a year and a half and I hardly have any complaints. Roaches got really bad for a season but they brought in a new Pest Control company that knocked that out. Maintenance is generally quick to respond which is nice. The neighborhood is diverse and not often loud (besides the planes from living by the airport). Staff is quick to respond too and attentive. I like Riverside! And I didn't feel a dip in that attentiveness when management changed.

Maintenance responded same day about my concerns with mold. Got contractor to clean my ducts in twenty four hours. Replaced water heater that had been leaking for three months that we did not know about, thought it was neighbors. Cut out wall and chemical bombed the room with the water damage and helped me with my concerns. I asked for the help when we went to the doctor to figure out what the black in our mucus was after a week of being sick respiratory problems when we put A/C on last week. They were kind and prompt and understanding.

Riverside is a great place to live. I've lived here for four years and seen 3 different managements. The current team is amazing. They are kind, professional and work hard to make sure everyone on the property is happy and lives in a place they can really find comfort in living.

Riverside is in a nice area with a Boys and Girls Club less than a block away and a nice school A less than a block away. And easy access to two freeways. It feels safe for my children here.

Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day!
WARNING: This apartment complex is not safe and management is not responsive. The first week I lived there, all of my plants were stolen from my front porch. I was woken up in the middle of the night to either residents yelling or the police yelling at residents (and nonresidents) outside. On several occasions, I saw people rifling around in the dumpsters who did not live there. They told us they would give us a second mail key, and despite months of asking, they did not. Any time I told management about an issue, they did not respond. Because we only gave 30 days notice instead of 60, they charged us an extra month (fair) but told us they were willing to work with us on a payment plan so it would be easy for us to pay. Since, they have made it extremely difficult for us to pay and appear unwilling to help.
Roach infested. They have attempted to get rid of them but the infestation is horrible! I can no longer deal with this!
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
We are so sorry to hear that you've been experiencing concerns with your apartment home. The team at The MarQ takes resident concerns very seriously. We offer complimentary, weekly pest control for all residents and complete inspections throughout the year to ensure that residents are happy in their homes. Feel free to contact the leasing office at (480) 968-5444 to discuss further. Thank you for reaching out.
I had a nine month lease. I thoroughly enjoyed living here. It's walking distance from Mill Ave and Tempe Beach Park. They have great landscaping and super friendly staff. We had a leaky sink once, and they showed up the same day we called to fix it. The gym is sort of small, but they have two pools and a fenced bike area. They also have movies you can rent for free! I loved it here.
Property Manager at Riverside Apartments, Responded To This Review
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed living at The MarQ at 1st! Creating a happy living experience for our residents is a priority of ours and we are very excited that we were able to provide you with such.
This place is scary. There's a guy that lives in the apartments and seem really friendly but, if you aren't watching he's been known to have stolen from people multiple times. Not to mention the neighbors selling drugs next. It's small, but livable. Mostly scary though. Also, the pool is pretty cold even in the Summer.
