The Griff Apartamentos

I’ve lived here for about half a year now and my experience overall has been good. The amenities are nice, the building is well maintained, and the maintenance members are punctual. I would definitely recommend The Griff for any OSU students looking to get off campus but not wanting to deal with the hassle of buying and moving their own furniture!

Have lived here for 3 years now and I love it! It has everything you could need! The amenities are nice and the parking is free!

The apartments are very spacious and the amenities are great!

I’ve been living here for 5 months now and it’s meh at best. Test it looks all nice and fancy but like someone else said, you’re paying for amenities that are broken often or closed (I used the pool once after move in and then they closed it bc of chemical issues and “it’s getting cold” - it was warm/hot for another month+). I’ve asked “is this being fixed?” And they say yes, but two months have gone by with no change. Also, they never told us you’re charged a common area electric fee, but you... are so that makes your electric bill go up. The place isn’t very clean (and that is mostly the residents fault) when I moved in my apartment was dirty and had paint everywhere - I took so many pictures to avoid issues when I move out next year. front desk staff is super friendly. Also, SUPER noisy. When it’s warm you can hear everyone outside even if they’re having a conversation at a normal voice level, and from the inside you hear every step your neighbors take and if you’re unlucky like me every ffin thing they drop and when they jump around. Compared to other apartments the price for the space and location (close to OSU campus) is worth it IF you’ve got roommates (parking is free or garage for 50/mo which I liked). If you’re getting a single it’s a scam, please move somewhere else, there are nicer places throughout grandview for the same or less rent. Ultimately, if you’re an OSU student and only need a place for a year go for it, or if you can stand it two years. But I’m gonna be at OSU through grad school so I am moving out because it is not worth the money, I’ve found a much nicer place 5 minutes away for cheaper for a single apartment. Lee mas

I have lived here for about a year and a half and it wasn’t that bad until this leasing year. The doors at the back entrance of the building are horrible, it’s either there isn’t a handle and anyone can freely walk into the apartment or it’s a struggle to open the ones with newly installed handles. There’s also trash thrown everywhere around the complex and I saw a mouse in one of the stair wells on the second level. If this mouse would’ve gotten into the halls, it could’ve entered anyone’s unit... because there is suck a huge gap in between the doors and floor. I also saw about 4 rats outside on 3 different occasions (this was all in about the last month). Also don’t move here unless you know your roommate can afford to live here because there has been issues with my roommate laying her portion of the electricity bill and they won’t do anything about it and so I always have to worry about my electricity getting cut off although I have already paid my half. Speaking of electricity, the electricity rates are very high and you’re also paying a portion of the building’s electricity so bills come up around $200 (this price also increases the colder it gets outside words from AP&L themselves). So whether you are in the apartment or not, there will be a bill (words from AP&L themselves again). Overall, I wouldn’t recommend living here and I very much can’t wait for my lease to be up ??

They also pick and choose what parts of the lease they want to follow. My roommate always has papers slid under the door for obviously not paying her rent and even considering that when I tell them she isn’t paying electric, they still do nothing but tell me to call electric company when all the electric company says is this person shouldn’t be on the lease if they can’t pay. It’s ridiculous. Also, they delete their negative reviews Lee mas
