  If you don’t mind the loud traffic of Douglas Ave 24-7 pretty much, to the amazing protesters that line the sidewalk from 10am-3pm every Saturday and some Sundays talking about how they hate this or hate that….in which also blocks the driveway to enter the main parking garage and just stands there blocking the garage looking straight into your car like you are the problem, (was never told they protest down there, I don’t mind the freedom of speech but please protest in a manner that your not making life an inconvenience to others),trash in the parking garage that doesn’t get picked up, the dirty floors throughout the building, or a dog park that DOES NOT get cared for plus the urine smell or smells in general to include the mounds of dog feces especially during the winter time, a maintenance guy that would call at 2am and leave a message of he’s not going to do it (a call that was made earlier for issue with repairs to the garage gate because nobody could get out of the garage), to the inadequate billing….so don’t move out early and let them say there would be no additional fees or penalties….because by gawd you signed a lease to the date it’s signed for, and watch out for the sneaky rise of rent through out the time you rent, or have them set up some false electrical payment plan and then get your electricity shut off for them to go back and say…..whoops….it was shut off due to the person living there before you but if you want to pay their amount they didn’t pay we will get it turned back on for you and then the power be still out for 5 days (not me but another tenant), pay $100 per parking spot in the main garage for someone to either park in your spot or just park in the middle of the garage so you can’t get to your spot, $80 dollars for the other garage 1/2 a block down…so if you have a young child or teenager that likes to go on walks or works and comes home in the middle of the night tell them head on a swivel down there (garage fees should be included in the rent, what else would you do since the City will fine you for $35 for parking on the street, even if you’re just running inside to grab something), or enjoy paying for a commons area gas bill that once it goes up gets every tenant is billed for “gas grill” usage up by the pool during the winter time, this is the place for you. The commons area and weight rooms are definitely nice to look at and the cleanest since it does get shown to you lucky apartment lookers, and having the ability to park and walk to work is awesome. This is definitely your place!

  During my time at ReNew, the office staff and maintenance staff were excellent - one of the best parts of this place. Maintenance would fix most problems within 24 hours, if not the same day. The amenities are nice, but the dog park/patio seems to be infrequently cleaned. The complex comes with no recycling option, so consider this if you do it. Would recommend paying for garage parking and avoiding parking on the streets, mostly due to cost and safety. The apartments facing Douglas and Market are very loud, and at night the sounds can last until 12-1 AM, sometimes later. Mostly loud vehicles, motorcycles, and people on the streets. It is also very bright, and very little shade given from the pre-existing window shades. Utilities will be high if you live in the 200 E. building and face Douglas, as half the apartment is floor-ceiling windows. Relatively good starter apartment, but be prepared for downtown Wichita and expect everything that comes with it.

  If you like peace and quiet avoid protesters have been across the street for over 2 years and you will hear everything through the apartments. Very dirty inside the common area due to pets and the lenient policy. Irritating that trash chute wasn’t on my part of the second floor do had to take out trash all the way on the other side. Constant elevator problems and they charge way too much for all these issues and the fact that it’s disgusting in all the common areas. Only chose this because of location and would not recommend this plane to anyone.Overpriced for the quality. At one point these was water leaking from the hallway. Overall if I could rate it zero I would. Calling it a luxury apartment is a joke. Dirty stained hallways as well frequent dog pee in common areas. I don’t know how they claim to be a luxury apartment it’s honestly laughable.

  I lived at Renew Wichita for four years, and unfortunately I would not recommend it. The property presents itself as a luxury apartment community, but my experience was very different. During my time there, I witnessed constant management turnover, recurring issues with trash chutes being broken, hallways that were often humid or unpleasant-smelling, and a persistent odor of marijuana in common areas. The hallway carpets frequently appeared stained and worn, which only added to the overall feeling that maintenance and upkeep were not priorities. One of the more disturbing experiences was seeing blood in an elevator after a reported assault involving a former employee. While management cannot control every incident that occurs on a property, it contributed to an overall feeling that the building was not as safe or well-managed as advertised. The utility costs were another major disappointment. The insulation appears to be poor because you can feel extreme temperatures inside your apartment. In the winter, the cold comes through the walls, and in the summer, the heat does the same. As a result, electric bills can become surprisingly expensive. The pool is heavily featured in marketing materials, but in my experience it was rarely open or functioning properly. Even when available, it felt more decorative than practical. If amenities are a major reason you’re considering this property, I would strongly suggest asking current residents about their experiences first. Especially since this “pool” was deep enough to just soak your feet in. My biggest frustration came after move-out. I spent significant time cleaning the apartment, including mopping, scrubbing surfaces, cleaning the stove and microwave, and even carpet cleaning. Despite those efforts, I was charged a full cleaning fee. The reasons given included sauce packets left in a drawer, a washer that supposedly needed additional cleaning, and drawers that allegedly weren’t wiped down sufficiently. It felt as though my extensive cleaning efforts were completely disregarded. The apartments look attractive at first glance, but much of the cabinetry and finishes feel inexpensive once you actually live with them. The community markets itself as upscale, yet many areas of the property feel neglected. Between the maintenance issues, utility costs, management turnover, amenity concerns, and move-out charges, the experience never matched the premium price being charged. There are better options in Wichita for the money.
