Having lived here for at least a semester, Aperture isn’t so bad as people say it is. Staff and technicians were attentive and friendly with spoken issues and notified the community of construction, or any inconveniences within reasonable times. I believe that guest parking could have been planned out better, or even expanded, but that’s really the only serious downside I see. Rooms and amenities were nicely built and any issues noted were taken care of. I leased with Emily back in Spring 2025, and she was super helpful and informative about the whole place, even currently she continues to be an amazing help when needed. Shoutouts to her!

For its inaugural year in the Orlando area, I was very pleased with choosing Aperture as my first ever off-campus apartment complex when planning on coming to UCF this past fall. The staff has been great, the environment is so welcoming and hospitable, and everything has been so amazing as far as community, events, and overall comfort.

Living at Aperture has been such a great experience, and a huge part of that is because of Makayla and Jadin. From the very beginning, they were incredibly welcoming and made me feel comfortable and at home. Anytime I had a question or needed help, they were always supportive, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure everything was handled.
It’s rare to come across people who are not only professional but also kind and understanding. Makayla and Jadin truly go above and beyond for the residents, and it makes a big difference in the overall experience here. I’m really grateful for all their help while living at Aperture!

If you don’t feel like taking the time to read my review, JUST DON’T LIVE HERE. Go anywhere else.
If I could give 0 stars or negative stars I would. This apartment complex is so unorganized, poorly constructed, and so irritating to live in. For starters there is NO soundproofing in this complex at all. The walls are made of paper. If you like being woken up EVERY SINGLE night by an upstairs neighbor or adjacent neighbor, this is the place for you. You can hear doors on the other side of the building open and close, and you can hear anything and everything when someone walks by your door. If you decide to report complaints to management be prepared to be ignored, disrespected, and belittled to your face. The leasing manager I had to deal with was so incompetent and unaware of how to deal with any situation. When complaining about neighbor disturbances which were LEASE VIOLATIONS, the “solution” was to go deal with it ourselves. If I had to pinpoint where the incapability to help comes from, it’s likely because they spend more time making cringe videos for their Instagram trying to be “aesthetic” and promote this absurdly overpriced mess they call an apartment complex. It arguably gets worse when you contact corporate and get ChatGPT responses apologizing and providing zero solutions or assistance. Rather than helping residents who NEED help, they used their combined brainpower to get the same exact food truck every week and add the worst speed bumps imaginable to an already dreadful parking lot. If you need to get to work or to class, make sure to leave 20 minutes earlier than you need because of the awful location of this complex, and wait 20 more minutes at the light to U-turn to be able to turn into the entrance. There have also been gunshots waking me and my roommate up on 2 separate occasions, one of which was a confirmed shooting at the neighboring 7/11. If anything were to happen and you had to try and get into your apartment immediately, good luck with that because we don’t have physical keys, we get to use an app! This app takes minutes to open your door, and if the app crashes (this has happened before) or you lost your phone or it died, you will be locked out of your apartment. The entire floor in my building also had a fly infestation and we frequently lose power in multiple outlets at once. This complex is filled with new college students who feel the need to party every single day, so if you’re in school and actually need to study and focus, be prepared to have to leave your $1300 room to get peace and quiet. There are no redeeming qualities about living here and 90% of the 5 star reviews you see were from when leases were signed last year and they incentivized them, I know because I made one. As I’ve seen from other reviews, the Aperture team likes to reply and counter-argue any negative points a resident made, just know they are just trying to save face and aren’t doing anything for us. Everyone I’ve met here absolutely hates it and there is no way to buy out of your lease, just subleasing, which is impossible due to how awful this place is and how expensive it is. I’ve lived in and been to many other apartment complexes in the area, and all of them are better than here. Please for your own well-being, DO NOT MOVE HERE.

As a parent with a child away at school, I truly appreciate the care and professionalism shown by the maintenance team but one specific maintenance man by the of Norman. He responded quickly, handled the issue efficiently, and made sure everything was safe and in order. It gives me peace of mind knowing my child is in good hands. Thank you for your reliability and dedication.
