    • DO NOT LIVE HERE

      July 29, 2023
      The amenities are fine, slightly better than anywhere in town. However, the Wi-fi is dreadful. It’s been a year now and they are still yet to fix the issue. When it goes out, it will not return for who knows how long. Got a project due monday? Wi-fi goes out friday night you might get it back Wednesday. Not much point to all the study areas and other amenities they have when you can’t even access the online resources you need to study. It’s pointless and a waste of money. They charge wayyyyy too ...
      much to have as many issues as they do. They’re also the only place in the area with this issue.
      • Property Manager Responded

        August 4, 2023
        Hello, Thank you for the opportunity to respond and address your concerns. We are fully aware of the WIFI issues all of our residents, including our onsite office teams, have been experiencing and we are truly sorry you had to deal with that while calling Union Blacksburg your home. Unfortunately, all of the instances where the WIFI has gone down has been outside of the abilities of our office staff to fix even though we wish we were able to and most cases it has been due to incidents off site of the community that has affected Union Blacksburg. We have been, and still are in constant contact with our service provider to correct and elevate our residents' WIFI experience. I am confident that we will be able to elevate the WIFI experience for all Union Blacksburg residents. I sincerely apologize for the hassle the WIFI issues have brought you. Sincerely, Matt S. - Community Manager

    • Frustratingly Bad

      April 4, 2023
      As a college student, I believe the quality of amenities and living spaces are nice. Everything works properly, as expected of a new apartment complex. However, the WiFi they use is horrendous. Reviews for Single Digit are bad, and if you check other review systems, you can see that it translates to Union Blacksburg having horrible reviews as well. Mine is just one of many. There are crashes that last for days each week and has issues more times than I can count per day (WIFI shutting off for no ...
      reason, browsers taking incredibly long to load, etc). All of this is not good for a college student, and this has actually been causing more headaches than anything imaginable. I understand the fault is not with Union Blacksburg, but I've talked with people at other apartments with similar or lower price ranges, and they have no issue with WiFi, which begs the question: why do they stick with Single Digits' services? If they switch large building WiFi services, it would be a 5 star apartment. Do not come to this property if you plan on living anymore than 2 hours a day in it, because the WiFi will prevent you from doing any homework.
