    Very good people that are easy to work with. Rooms are in great shape and all the amenities are nice. It’s also super close to LSU, so it is very easy to commute to school and back.

    We’ve had issues with mold and such, but the office people have done there very best to move us around and fix stuff. Don’t expect anything crazy.

    Where do I start? When I first saw an advertisement for “The Cove at State Street,” i thought that I would be able to finally find an affordable rental listing close to LSU that would be decent and nice. Boy was I wrong. The entire property is dirty, covered in black tar and gunk in your stair wells that you will be walking on everyday and night because the elevators do not exist. The entire property is NOT SECURE. Holes in the fences, frequent car break ins (including my own jeep), and a “security” company that is more that a joke in its ability to prevent crime and vandalism in their property. The front office is sketchy with your finances and should not be trusted. Better get a good tool box because maintenance will not come because they are so understaffed and backed up all the time. Also none of the lights work outside in the stair wells so hopefully you also can afford a nice 25k night vision goggle set or else you will sprain your ankle. The pool area is constantly disgusting as I once found cut dreadlocks on the ground that was left their for 3 days. The gym looks like a grenade was set off inside and blew out the ceiling (holes in wall, ceiling etc) Units are very small unless you get a 3 or 4 bedroom. There was an apple that was left in our stairwell for 8 months. If you live here, my advice is to get your hopes and expectations as low as they can possibly go because not only will you be paying PREMIUM dollar for anything more than a studio or 1 bedroom, but you will be constantly reminded everyday on how much of a terrible financial decision you tragically made. Whatever “The Blows” responds to this email saying, ignore them and live somewhere else ANYWHERE else!!

    the first two months were great besides the things that did not get fixed then i reported break-in attempts and a week or so later while i was away my apartment was actually broken into in the middle of the day then the very next day three more individuals broke into my apartment after the first person 4 different people broke into my apartment & i was still expected to pay to relocate away from that apartment

    I just want to give thanks to Cedrick Perry. He always takes care of any maintenance requests I put in quickly and efficiently, and he always does it with a smile. His positive attitude and reliability really make a difference.
