  The centralized accounts manager / new management is slowly improving the complex and was super accommodating during the end of my stay. The pricing is cheap, you can’t beat it in tampa. It seems as if management is moving in a better direction The only down side is not further screening of who they approve to live here, it shouldn’t be called student housing it should just be called co living near USF, often there were grown men in the gym w their shirts off, leaving it behind etc but that’s something that can easily be approved. More cameras and rules would benefit the complex making it clear to meet standards or to be removed from the complex.

  This place was affordable but disgusting to live at with all the roaches and bugs that the apartment was infested with. They had moldy spots in the apartment, walls were wet, the flooring was poor. They would charge u like crazy for anything. The only good thing is the gym and study place. The area was sketch, multiple problems with cops and people around arguing and fighting. Someone was always mad at someone. The staff were so unhelpful and gave u attitude. You could tell they were just there to collect their check and let time go by year in and year out. Wouldn’t recommend unless u really have to 🫠

  It's a beautiful property. Zach gave my family and I an amazing tour of the place. Very professional. Detailed. And overall, it seems like a great place to live. A pretty good price too.

  I stayed here for one year, the apartments are nothing like advertised. The condition of everything is worn down and I would describe the quality of everything as dirty. Residents are disrespectful and leave trash everywhere which does not get picked up for a long time. The staff here is helpful and nice when you need to request maintenance. However, that does not make up for the false advertising. I moved in with one roommate which everything was a mess and I had to clean out prior roommate mess in shared areas in order to move in my stuff. The carpet was dirty, the room furniture was dirty and worn. The pool was always dirty with debris and trash left by many of the residents near the pool. The walls were dirty when I moved in and I had to wipe everything down. I moved from out of state without touring in person, big mistake. I want to spread awareness to not do that here especially, as I was stuck in a lease for a year in a depressing, unclean and ghetto area. Safety is another concern, yes it is gated but I’ve seen someone bust through the gate with their car and the gate wasn’t fixed for weeks. People are always sneaking in past the gate and there is minimal security. Only time I see security is by the pool which should not be the only priority as multiple cars were broken into during my time living here. I would say the area is not safe whatsoever. As a young female, there were always sketchy people in this area and I never felt safe enough to walk around this complex alone especially at night. I’ve seen multiple fights and always visits from cops. If you are thinking about moving here I would not recommend.
