The District on Apache, tempe

This apartment is a nightmare. It was good for about 6 months and went completely downhill over the last year and a half. Leasing managers are unhelpful and don’t even try to help solve issues. There’s leaks in the gym, broken gym machines, trash overflowing all the time, and everything is always dirty. The sauna and golf simulator have not been operating since I moved in two years ago. We were promised the new pool would be done in a timely manner but it was closed for 10 months (and still is, end of June!) while under construction. Construction started at 7 AM (when it actually DID happen) and during finals week for an apartment complex meant for students. My roommate had multiple problems with internal theft and they did nothing to solve it besides hiring a new maintenance crew the next week. They say that they have cleaners (which I’ve seen in the lobby) but don’t have any of the floors cleaned outside of the lobby so it’s a mess everywhere else. The printers go down every other week and the elevator hasn’t been working for three weeks now. Did I mention half the doors are broken so anyone can just walk in? I could not recommend this apartment complex any less and paying this much for it (while not having a pool basically the entirety of my lease) has been disappointing to say the least.

Amanda was amazing throughout the entire process. She helped me feel safe and confident with every housing decision, and I truly appreciated her guidance and support. She took the time to answer my questions and made everything feel much less overwhelming. I absolutely love the district and the apartment complex, and I’m so happy with how everything turned out. Thank you, Amanda, for making this such a positive experience!

I am writing this review because, unfortunately, it seems to be the only way to get management’s attention when issues are not being addressed. Currently, the side entrance fob access has been broken for weeks, creating an ongoing inconvenience for residents. The women’s sauna light hasn’t worked for the entire three years I have lived here, and the sauna completely stopped all function a few months ago. My repeated maintenance requests for it to be repaired have been ignored. The wifi is consistently spotty at best. It’s clear that repair is being neglected here as well. This is completely unacceptable for a student apartment complex. If residents are expected to tolerate prolonged, undisclosed, disruptive construction to the pool, the least management could do is stay on top of routine maintenance issues. Overall, the lack of responsiveness, transparency, and consistent upkeep has been extremely disappointing.

This apartment has been a huge part of my college experience and I couldn’t ask for a better one! Not only is it beautiful outside and has fun places to hang out, but it also has the cutest study rooms and coffee place. I’d definitely recommend living here and it’s the perfect distance from campus! Staff is also very helpful, whether it’s the leasing consultants or the maintenance team.

This place is going down the drain. You pay for luxury apartments but it’s barely worth the price anymore. There’s always something wrong with the pool/hot tub. The hot tub was drained for most of the summer to the point where I stopped even trying to go. I live in a corner of the building right next to a gate that is NEVER LOCKED so anyone can just walk in. They’ve been promising to fix that for like 3 months if not more. There's a ton of sketchy people in the area at night. The cell service is always awful. There’s always trash everywhere (parking garage, dog park, hallways sometimes) and it smells so bad. They have fun events but won’t notify you until the day of, so poor communication. I requested to switch rooms after I renewed because they told me this was an option, but after like 2 months of not getting an email reply, they told me they don’t allow for room transfers anymore. My email was within the time period that they did but I got completely screwed over. Also they found a dead homeless man in one of the dumpsters in August and management NEVER ADDRESSED IT. Management in general is so hard to reach, and I don’t want to take all my complaints out on the students who work here because it’s not their fault. I like how close it is to campus but now that the streetcar charges $1 PER RIDE it takes the convenience out of it. They are desperate for people to renew and will keep pestering me even though I’ve said I am NOT resigning
