Never had a problem
Maintenance was quick, Jessica and megan in the office were always pleasant and professional. I never saw mice in the 6 years I was there and apt was never broken into. It's close to Walmart and there is a fitness center and pool. Pretty good deal for the money.
Property Manager at Sophias Place West, Responded To This Review

Ready to move
Things were good until recently. It used to be pretty quiet. Now a group of disrespectful children are always outside and are very vulgar and loud. At times vehicles have a hard time getting through because they will not move. I would mention it to the parent but I've never seen them. I'm not even sure if they live out here. They throw trash everywhere. I was planning on signing on for another year but instead I'm looking elsewhere.

Loved it!
Washer/dryer in unit. Maintenance always available when things need to be fixed! Affordable pricing. Quiet area. Close to everything! Pool is a plus.. only negative thing is appliances are dated & walls a thin but overall I loved living here! Jessica, Lindsay & Tierra were awesome!

Expected more
They used to be grate but since galman took over the trash is always over flowing and the snow removal is terrible. The apartments are great but very dated, neighbors are quiet for the most part. I just expected more now that they've jacked the rent up

Satisfied
Me and my wife have been living in Sophia's place west for about a year. I'll give you the pros and cons about Sophia's place west. Pros you can pay rent online and put in repair tickets ( they respond to them very quickly) the bedrooms are spacious, the master bedroom has a walk in closet and if you have a 2 bedroom two bath the master bedroom also has a bathroom attached. You have your own full size washer and dryer, and you don't pay for water here. The kitchen is spacious enough for us to have a small eating area, and the dinning area is a good size. The location is nice it's close to the mall and your major grocery stores. And last but not least the price is not bad at all, for what me and my wife have with Sophia's place west people I know spend hundreds more renting somewhere else. We have new ownership and they did a lot of renovations. The only con I have is the first day we moved in we had a leak from the upstairs apartment and it took them awhile to fix it. besides that no complaints

Great for our family
Hello! This apartment is perfect for our family of 5 and 2 small doggies. We love the convenience of having a full size washer and dryer and hardwood flooring. We also love that it is near major stores and highways. The neighborhood is good and we live closer to our families and my husbands job. That's a huge blessing. We also love the fact that it has 2.5 baths with the half bath being on the first floor, easy access for our guests.

Sophia's Place West
I've lived in Sophia's place west for about a year. I don't have anything too bad to say about it. The neighbors aren't loud and obnoxious. The renters office is very helpful, they respond pretty quick to emails. You can pay your rent online and put in maintenance requests. The apartments are pretty spacious and the price a month is reasonable, we just had a lot of outside renovations done, so the outside looks great also. I have a spacious two bedroom, two bath, washer, and dryer. The water is free and so is trash. I'm pretty satisfied

Quiet Neighborhood
I moved to Scotchhills now known as Sophia's Place West in April 2015. It is a very quiet neighborhood. The office staff is very friendly and helpful. It is a great place to live.

New Ownership
When I moved in my apartment was named Scotch Hills. Now it is Sophia's Place West. The new company is making some great changes. I am looking forward to the new club house. Of course the rent is going up but the new amenities will make it worth it. I actually have an address on my building now.
Property Manager at Sophias Place West, Responded To This Review
We are so happy to hear you love the new changes that are coming to your community. We appreciate your patience as we work hard to make Sophia's Place West a fantastic place to live, work, and play! We cannot wait to show you the brand new club house!

Very happy here.
Have been a resident since June, 3013. Very convenient location. As a senior, have always felt safe. Very quiet. Love my deck! BEST of all, the maintenance. I left an e-mail message on Wednesday night that my a/c was down and it was fixed by 11:00 am Thursday. Courteous and pleasant staff. Highly recommend.
