Oak Grove Apartamentos

Old building, not a nice place to live.

We are talking bugs, I mean ants, roaches and silverfish. They called and exterminator and the bugs came back within weeks and the management said we can only call for the exterminator once a year!!!

All of the drains a very slow and the kitchens do not have a garbage disposal!

The units do not come with any appliances beyond a stove and 2/3 size refrigerator and a dishwasher. Not only is there no Microwave when we plug our mid-sized uint in and turn it... on the breakers blow!!

Our dishwasher has had to be replaced twice, and when they replace them they will get used appliances.

Oh, the places don't have air-conditioning and in many of the units the wiring is so old that it can't take the load of a window mounted unit!

The people downstairs love to smoke and when they do it comes up through the walls!!

Don't bother calling the office or security patrol about noise, the management team won't do anything about it and they'll tell you to lighten up and enjoy it! This is kind of hard at 12:30 in the morning when you have to go to work the next day!

Now in some apartments it's common to hear water moving through the pipes at the "wet wall" but here the insulation is so bad you can actually hear your neighbors going to the bathroom!

There are one and two bedroom units and the water and sewer cost are divided up per unit, not by the number of people in each unit. This means you are paying for the water used by your neighbors that have kids . And they add a little something to the bill for 'management' so don't be surprised to see your monthly add on charges in the $60 - $70 range and most of it is for sewer and water!

If you still decide to rent here just make sure you are not near one of the few pet spots! They do not require pet owners to clean up after their dogs and on warm days you don't want to have your windows open!

Got a problem? The office is closed on weekends and the so-called security patrol won't come out if your neighbors are loud, having a party or fighting.

Seriously, just before Thanksgiving 2014 we had about 30 people having a mini gang war with some people in the apartment building next door!

Finally, our lease came due (we had already decided to leave) the sent up a notice that our $780 per month rate was going to $960 per month! Lee mas

This place is old and decrepit. The kitchen has no modern conveniences like a microwave or even a garbage disposal. It is infested with ants and spiders, and is damp and moldy in the Portland winters. And the new office manager is incompetent and slipshod; don't expect help.

This complex is aging, and while they make an effort to maintain it, it has some serious problems, such as insect infestations and mold. The kitchen is so old that it doesn't have a microwave, for instance, and the cabinets and drawers are crumbling. Plus, they just asked a large rent increase, when it's not worth the previous amount.

Although the management tries to keep the place spiffed up, this place is too old to be comfortable. The kitchens are from the Stone Age, the cabinets and drawers are falling apart and sagging, the appliances are ancient, etc. The building is infested with ants, and spiders, and has serious mold problems in winter when the rains come. We were glad to leave.

Although they tried hard to clean up the place before we moved in, the building is old and hasn't been updated. The kitchen is from the 70's, so no microwave or garbage disposal, and the cabinets and drawers are falling apart. Plus, the place is infested with insects, ants in particular, which seem to be living inside the walls. And there is a serious mold problem. But the staff is friendly and willing to help.
