  • DON'T LIVE HERE

    September 4, 2024
    READ THE REVIEWS AND DON'T LIVE HERE. While the paint may appear nice, all of the apartments have a lot of issues with heating, cooling, pest control, plumbing, lighting, etc. Rushmore Management notoriously does not communicate about anything, maintain their properties nor resolve any issues. For the rent, there are better options.

  • Cockroaches

    August 7, 2024
    I never lived where roaches or mice reside. Someone told me if you see 1 that means there’s more and they were right. The leasing manager sends out pest control emails occasionally but using the service is useless if ALL tenants aren’t using it which is the case with the building I live in. Unfortunately, I’m planning to move when I can because of the roaches. I will say that I live in a renovated unit and I haven’t seen any mice.

      August 22, 2024
      Hi, we are sorry to see that your experience has not been more positive. Per our record, we regularly communicate with residents regarding pest control services. We will be sending out another email to all residents, emphasizing the importance of notifying us about any pest issues so that we can address them promptly. We look forward to restoring your confidence in Downing Apartments! The Downing Apartments Management Team

  • What ever you do, STAY AWAY from this place

    May 3, 2024
    Numerous attempts to communicate with the management and maintenance teams, all of which have been met with disappointing silence. The lack of responsiveness and disregard for resident concerns is truly disheartening. Despite multiple emails detailing problems, there has been no acknowledgement or action taken. This lack of communication and inaction is unacceptable and shows a clear disregard for the well-being of the residents. Move out of here and stay away from this place.

  • Good luck

    February 3, 2024
    I couldn’t wait to move out! Property managers never handled any concerns. They don’t care about tenants. Renovated every apartment that was vacant but those of us who chose to stay lived in unrenovated apartments. So don’t be fooled by the pics. I’m sure whoever will live in my old apartment will find pay more than I did without the amenities! Mice living rent free; pest control is a joke they leave sticky pads throughout the apartment. Mouse caught on pad in bedroom and living room on the ...
    weekend at that (they don’t provide emergency services). I told management in Monday they said maintenance does not remove them. Neighbors are easily heard all times of the night, and those who own homes in the neighborhood are rude and snobby about street parking, which sucked because parking lots are small. My car was swiped numerous times. FYI don’t be late on rent past 12 days or you will be put on eviction notice, but don’t worry once you pay legal fees they might let you stay. Good luck.

  • Horrible place to live

    January 19, 2024
    I do not recommend this place at all. Since I moved i had problem after problem. Dryer broke, air broke, bathroom faucet was clogged with old debris, boiler steaming and making horrible sounds. Management is the worst and maintenance is not great. You will be lucky if you end up next to a good neighbor.

  • Horrible.

    June 26, 2023
    Scheduled an appointment for 6/26 @ 1:30 PM. The leasing agents never showed up. I called the office and someone said they would be there in 10 minutes, they also never showed. Sat there for 2 hrs.

      July 3, 2023
      We truly apologize for your unpleasant experience. We are unclear as to how this mix-up happened, because 6/26 was a Monday and we do not schedule tours at this property for Mondays. It is certainly frustrating, and we wish there is something we can do to restore your confidence in our community. If you are willing to give us another chance, please reach out and we will be glad to assist you. We wish you all the best. The Downing Apartments Management Team

    If you wanna get apartment from this property you will wait a lot. They always promise call you back, but you get nothing. This is the one of the bad experiences I have ever had with rent of apartments.
