  • Absolutely unresponsive management and pest infested

    December 9, 2022
    2 years here was two years too long. Management drags their feet harder than a pet rock and to get them to do anything is impossible. They belittle you and simply want to collect your check. Your neighbors will be a nuisance and the character who are allowed to rent here match the price you're paying to live here. They finally installed security cameras and they will email you daily the same email about referring friends to live there, or the parking program despite not really enforcing the ...
    parking. Maintenance isn't the best but at least they smile. It seems everyone in the main office would rather not be bothered. They tried in the beginning with balloons on your birthday and stuff but now it's like bothersome to halfway care in ways other than haphazardly thrown together community events. We've had mice and roaches and the $5 pest control fee doesn't fix it.
    • Property Manager Responded

      December 12, 2022
      I'm disappointed to see this feedback and I'm sorry we've let you down. This is certainly not the courteous and accommodating professionalism I expect from our team, and I apologize for any unwelcoming behavior. In regard to your comment about our other residents, we have the same leasing policies for every household. We do send out weekly reminders regarding resident referrals and reminders about the parking program to ensure communication is transparent. The parking program is enforced 7 days a week, between 8PM-8AM, as stated in the reminder email. We respond to all complaints while following Iowa Tenant Landlord Law and Fair Housing Guideline, however, there is only so much we can do if we do not have the proper documentation and/or names behind the complaints. We did a survey a year ago to determine what kinds of events our residents would like, and everyone wanted food. We have done large Fall Fest events, Nacho Bars, Thanksgiving Meal Giveaways, Welcome to Summer Food Trucks, ...
      etc. I'm concerned that you've had some pest issues, and I would like to step in and offer my assistance here. Please give me a call when you have a moment, as I won't be able to locate your contact information without a name. Thank you, Brandi - Property Manager - (515) 288-6075

  • DO NOT BELIEVE 5 STAR REVIEWS- there’s a raffle for residents who leave good reviews

    November 17, 2022
    This listing is inaccurate and the information I was given by my leasing agent, Katrina, was simply untrue. The “upgrades” in the apartment are poorly done and incomplete. There is no porch, no disposal, no walk-in closets, no Bluetooth shower head, no hardwood, nothing is what they say it is. They won’t let you see your unit before you sign a lease because they aren’t as advertised. They bribe us with cheap gifts from the dollar store to get people to leave good reviews. It is not a safe place ...
    to live. Their only amenity (the gym) has been closed more than its been open due to theft. Bugs and rodents are a weekly occurrence despite paying a monthly pest control fee. Valet trash is a scam, they don’t come half the time and the monthly charge is steep.
    • Property Manager Responded

      November 21, 2022
      We appreciate your review, but unfortunately, your feedback is misleading. We take our reviews seriously, and we did not ask for good reviews--all feedback is welcome. Regarding the rest of your comments, we do have Bluetooth shower heads and walk-in closets in select floor plans. The listing does not show that we have disposals. Our gym was closed at the start of COVID in 2020, then residents had to reserve a spot so that we could monitor the number of people, this was all per CDC guidelines. Since then the gym was closed one other time for a month and this was due to a theft. We had already ordered cameras and, to prevent any more theft, the gym was only open during office hours. If you have additional questions, please reach out. Brandi - Property Manager - (515) 288-6075

    Courtney was great in the whole process! She helped me get a great rate on rent, went the extra mile to do a FaceTime tour of the apartment before I moved in, answered all of my questions and concerns with honesty, and made overall move-in a breeze! I had a little incident on move-in day and she made sure to correct it and followed up with me to make sure everything was great. I had a great experience with her and being welcomed into the Scotts!

    Ever sense day one, The Scott has been great to live at. The staff are super nice, and its pet friendly. Who doesn't like animals man? I've lived in Des Moines almost my whole life and this location a few years ago was pretty rough BUT, it has made big changes and is becoming apart of the nicer side of downtown. Overall my girlfriend and I love it here and think more would too. And dont let those bad reviews from forever ago mess with you, come check 'em out and meet the staff.

    This is not a bad first apartment if you utilize the location. I feel like the main thing that you are paying for is location. I don't utilize the amenities aside from the dog park, which my dog loves! During the day, the view is nice, things are fine, but the lack of light fixtures in the apartment make it very dark at night unless you provide your own. It is odd that there is not a ceiling light in the living room.
