Fairway Tower & Manor Apartments

After looking for several months in Akron for a spacious, clean, affordable and safe apartment, I found it with Fairview towers. been living here for almost two years now and I absolutely don't regret it. The staff is very friendly and respond to service request within the same day. They are always improving things like the new gym area, painting the hallways, and cleaning the carpets. This management truly cares about the building and it shows.

I have lived here seven years. Great value for the money. Right now, we have first-rate management; interior maintenance issues are addressed immediately if they come up. The Tower has never looked better with a new exercise room and other improvements. The Manor is an excellent place to live, especially if you have a dog. All the apartments in both areas are very spacious, the neighbors friendly, the location very convenient. Check the apartments out before you go elsewhere!

Very nice and friendly people with very professional staff. Miss Tracey, manager, is always helpful and is dedicated to making this complex the best it can be inside and out.

So from reading reviews you might notice that there have been a few new property managers within the last 2 years (this is the 3rd one since I've been living here). However, there have been maintenance concerns that I saw go unaddressed for long periods of time prior to the current manager. She has managed to get a lot of things addressed.

Beyond that I'm told she is working on updating the laundry room with new washers and dryers. There is actually a maintenance worker certified in HVAC now... to address those issues better. Oh, and I haven't mentioned it before, but since she came she brought in some pretty talented (and experienced) maintenance personnel. For the price and the location it has been a good value, and I for one am glad to see the positive change. Hoping the trend of fixing things continues, but currently have no reason to believe that the current manager will not get these issues addressed and the building to where it needs to be at.

For Akron university students, this is conveniently not too far from campus. Granted, you wouldn't get the same vibe as an on-campus housing unit would give you, but it is ALOT cheaper (costs less in one year than that housing would for one semester). So for the budget minded student, might want to check into a place like this.
