What Residents Say

Staff like Janelle, Ana G., Micaela, and Ram receive genuine praise for quick communication and problem-solving when residents reach them directly. In-person visits to the office work better than phone calls. Location near schools and parks appeals to students and families, and pricing fits affordable budgets.

However, chronic roach problems, recurring AC failures, and erratic trash pickup create persistent frustration. Work orders languish for weeks or months. Phone and email inquiries go unanswered. Residents report the experience hinges on which management staff is present; Ana G.'s departure and Elizabeth Contreras's arrival marked a sharp downturn for some. The gated community itself is quiet and safe when maintained, but oversight of common areas and resident compliance is inconsistent.

Praised for
  • Responsive, attentive staff when engaged (named staff members praised)
  • Convenient location near schools, shopping, park access
  • Affordable pricing
  • Quick solutions from maintenance when work orders reach right person
Watch-outs
  • Roach infestation ongoing and not resolved by pest control
  • AC breakdowns recurring; fixes temporary
  • Slow maintenance response (weeks to months for work orders)
  • Leasing office unresponsive to calls, emails, complaints
  • Trash collection unreliable; trash piles up in hallways
  • Management style varies; recent staff changes noted negatively
responsive-managementpoor-communicationunresponsive-officeslow-maintenance-responsepest-problemsfriendly-staffquiet-communityparking-issuesvalue-for-money
Best for: Budget-conscious students and families within walking distance of schools; in-person communicators who prefer direct office visits.
Think twice if: You rely on phone/email support, expect rapid AC or maintenance fixes, need a pest-free home, or depend on consistent trash collection. Management responsiveness has declined recently.

Maintenance staff (Luis, Joe, Desiree, and others) earn repeated praise for speed and courtesy, and many residents describe smooth move-ins and helpful team interactions. However, the complex struggles with enforcing quiet hours despite resident complaints, prolonged elevator downtime, and mixed management responsiveness: some find the office welcoming and attentive, while others report unfulfilled callbacks and billing confusion that has soured their stay.

Broadstone Medical

Many residents praise the leasing team, especially Daniela and Jordan, and report quick maintenance fixes and a clean, welcoming property near the Medical Center. However, recurring complaints about neighbor behavior (dogs, lack of courtesy), inconsistent office responsiveness after move-in, and serious allegations of mold, unaddressed repairs, and wrongful eviction create significant friction between the positive front-office experience and residents' actual living conditions. The gap between the "immaculate front office" and unit quality appears stark. Some tenants credit staff like maintenance worker Scott for going above and beyond, yet others describe office staff as unhelpful once a lease is signed. The most severe complaint alleges management kept rent and deposit after a 4-day notice to vacate, citing false allegations, following documented black mold discovery.

Hawthorne House

Hawthorne House

4.2(281)✓ Google-verified

Hawthorne House wins strong loyalty from tenants drawn by genuinely warm staff and quick repairs when things work. Nadynn and Mike are named repeatedly for treating residents as people, not account numbers. The property delivers on its modern finish and draws med students and young professionals to its Medical Center location. However, the "luxury" pitch crumbles under scrutiny. AC failures recur with inadequate emergency response; hallways stay filthy despite complaints; gates and amenities break and sit unrepaired for months. Worse, departing residents face surprise bills and aggressive collection tactics. Long-term residents also report package theft and security breaches that management hasn't fixed.
