Marbella on Dean Apartamentos

I’ve lived here for multiple years and am very disappointed with my experience. Have only stayed because of the inconvenience of moving. Here are my issues:

- If the hot tub has been functional 25% of the time I’ve lived here, I’d be shocked. It’s constantly under repair, and they often close the entire pool area for repairs.

- The elevators are also frequently broken, and when they work they are painfully slow. They are also often dirty.

- The gym is tiny and the equipment hasn’t been... updated…ever? You’ve got two janky treadmills, two jankier stationary bikes, an elliptical and some free weights/cables.

- They clean out the garage about twice a year, and it sets off the entire building’s fire alarm EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Good luck if you have anxious pets.

- The package room is only accessible during the office’s open hours from 10am-6pm. If you work during those hours and have an important package, you’re out of luck.

- The building is impossible for Uber drivers to find. The entrance is basically hidden and the signage is terrible.

- Most of the equipment in the common room is broken. Management is too lazy to replace the pool triangle or chalk. Only one TV works, and the building has had a robbery in the past where someone stole the one good TV.

Positives: right on the greenway, near the lakes, front desk workers and custodial staff are friendly. But I highly recommend looking elsewhere. Lee mas

While the location is fantastic, the support staff is great, the Manager does a poor job of maintaining the building and outside area, poor job of enforcing rules such as no smoking, quiet hours and parking, including the underground lot and is not quick to respond to residence inquiries. If you are handicapped or need accommodations he is not the Manager to deal with. I am not the only one who found it difficult. My accommodation request took over a year to get resolution and that is only... because upper Management stepped in. Lee mas

I relocated from South Carolina to Minneapolis and had no clue about housing/ locations in the Twin Cities. Grace and Amy were so great about communicating with me and answering any and all questions I had about leasing from Lake Calhoun Flats. So sweet and responsive both via email and phone calls!

Management 5 stars. Maintenance 5 stars. Amenities spectacular. Apartments unique. Great price. Perfect location.

this place is pretty MEH.. I wish I was paying the 300 more a month to live at the building a block away. Lake Calhoun Flats is updated but cheaply updated. great location with the lakes, the greenway, uptown nearby but again wishing i knew better before signing and paying a little more to live at a much better place a block away. Lake Calhoun Flats has extremely thin walls. you can hear your neighbors and also the contruction outside. This week alone I have been woken up or not able to take... work calls from home because our buildings construction work and the workers talking is loud right outside my door and windows starting around 7am. Not to mention the only driveway in is hidden and with massive potholes from the building torn down in front of our building that is building new apartments. there is minimal parking available and tons of cars illegally parked in front of the entrance and some blocking exits. In the winter - the snow is not always addressed immediately and having a lower car at times I was not able to get in or get out. Also- Uber and friends coming over will struggle to find Lake Calhoun Flats. can't see the apartment from street and poor signage. If you enjoy the smell of marijuana in the halls- you will like this place. i made the mistake of signing a 14 month lease so I am stuck here until 2020. miserable experience. i gave 2 stars instead of 1 because the building staff is pleasant.
