Going to start this review by listing the very small list of pros to this apartment, but in general STAY AWAY from this place. Pros: - Good amenities, pool is nice and stylistically it’s decent. - Good location to be central to both St. Pete & Tampa. Cons: - Living on floors 1-3 is awful. Now as a preface, I’ve lived in both dorm settings and apartments before. There is ZERO noise proofing between floors at this place. Upstairs neighbors sound like elephants that might break through the floor and rattle picture frames on my wall. I have video proof and good luck getting any peace and quiet here, you will hear every footstep and any sort of noise located near the vents. Lastly, management will not do anything about this. After submitting multiple noise complaints, no solutions were found. - You will not be able to have guests visit here. There is terribly limited guest parking and they tow almost immediately. In addition, good luck finding a resident spot after 10:30 p.m. on the weekend. I’ve had to on multiple occasions park across the street at the gym and cross 4 lanes of traffic on foot. - The gates have been consistently broken on many occasions since my move in of November 2021 for weeks at a time. In addition, it’s a vehicle break-in prone area. I found myself walk out one morning to see a residents car window smashed for their belongings and police everywhere. So just know, you won’t be living in a secure area. - They should have considered how dangerous it can be getting in and out of the complex without a traffic light. You will never be able to make a left hand turn out or in during rush hours, and if you do it’s dangerous. Since living here, I’ve seen 2 MAJOR accidents right outside the complex, I’m assuming because of this issue. My recommendation, create another gate off of Brighton bay since it’s right there! - In general, this place has gone severely down hill. Some other notes to keep in mind: There’s dog poop everywhere, they consistently miss trash pickup on scheduled days which you are required to pay for, trash compactor is constantly full, hot tub never works, grills didn’t work for an extended period of time, pool rules never enforced considering kids ages 5-8 were left there alone to terrorize other residents with no parental supervision and barking/loud dogs everywhere. - Lastly, management has changed tremendously since Ashley has left. I received no move out procedure communication and whatever leasing agent was there yesterday, who avoided introducing herself, was not helpful at all and very rude. - P.s. when I moved into the place, the unit was already damaged!! Mold in the shower sealant, LARGE/DEEP scratches in the flooring right when u walk in, the lock didn’t work for over an hour, drawers not closing properly, base board broken and hanging in the kitchen, and to top it all off, the place was not clean.

Went to tour this apartment and the unit I saw (that would have been the one we would move into) was absolutely not worth the price. For 2,050 you would expect a nicely done apartment. It looks like it was done in 2 hours. There were holes all over the floors, cabinets wouldn’t close, drawers would hit the above and below drawers and wouldn’t close, smelled like feces, paint drops on floors, plastic wrap stuck on fridge. Do better. Quality was horrific to be completely honest. Told the leasing number and instead of fixing the problem the management company tried to send me a different apartment they manage. Is that a joke? People do not deserve to pay half their paychecks on apartments that are this poorly made.

I have just signed a lease for 3 weeks out. But saw a less expensive apt and asked about leasing it instead. I was told that my “leasing agent” would have to take care of that for me. Mind you the leasing agents are not on site but in a totally different state! My agent was Devyn and she did the WORST JOB EVER in “ helping” with my request!!! I asked about an apt that was cheaper and i got a leaSe sent to me which was 600 MORE than what i wanted!!! I said i did not want the apt if it was at that price. I was then sent a NEW LEASE for the apt which i had already signed and it was 400 MORE!!! This leasing company is a JOKE AND VERY INCOMPETENT!!!! If i had not already signed a lease I would have run!! I have NEVER rented from a complex that has someone else in a different state do their leases!!! SUPER UNPROFESSIONAL AND INCOMPENENT!

All you have to do is read reviews. 106 people don’t lie. The talk at pool or gym is how unhappy tenants are. Nothing works. Hot tub cold. Gym equipment. One out of 5 Tread mills work Unsafe light out so cars get vandalized Maintenance requests don’t get done security was taken out and replaced with towing. U live there but u pay parking extra. U pay fir pest control but never done. Wgen u ask offuce they say u have to request it if u have pest issue only noise is unbelievable walls paper thin. Hard to believe that they are firewall up to code. When u see someone moving out they state how happy to be leaving. I could go on but just read reviews. Update…. So a bad review you reply within an hour. But 4 years And not one reply from corporate on the abuse of tenants. And funny how you don’t recognize the longest tenant. Very sad Ask the secretary at UDR corporate Colorado how many times I called before giving up Your local manager refused to give out UDR number. She tells every e ages is who to call not corporate. Why not poll the residents. Or go to pool or gym or dog and ask how’s community feels Being you shut down portal of community integration so tenants can’t discuss among themselves. Nothing made up here. Blatant truth
