March 19, 2023Cockroach infestation, bad plumbing I was 15 days without a working bathroom and the regional manager said they had 21 days to fix it, but they still expect you to pay full rentReview from Apartments.com
Infested w/ Enormous Roaches
January 29, 2018Would give it no stars. Walls are super thin. Apartments are poorly put together. No grace period & there infested with roaches that range from tiny to the length of my middle finger. The second week I moved in we saw about 20 large roaches. There's no escaping them. Even if the apartment is Clorox clean. We have yet to move any furniture in because of them. So bad my newborn sleeps with me because I saw one in his bassinet. I wish I was exaggerating.Review from Apartments.com
Great Place
August 6, 2015I truly love it out here. These apartments are in the Churchland part of portsmouth. It's sooooooo quite and its a perfect place to raise your children. The 3 years I have been out here, I've only seen the police twice and it was due to someone popping fire crackers and a couple fussing in there home. The school is 2 minutes up the street and if you don't want to take your child to school the bus stop is in front of each section. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and the rooms are a nice size. ...Both bedrooms have double door walk in closet.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
