The Benton Apartments

Been here for 4.5 month, nothing gets done, fence are wide open everybody can come and go ,every wk end trash dumpster is full and tons of trash laying by it.roaches every where on my apartment
The entire property is over run by roaches and all they do is come by every other week and only spray.
Toaches are not affected by it.
My apartment is over run buy roaches, and management only says we put you on list for spraying. This place says it luxury .but its not.

Garbage disposal is always filled to capacity leaving you getting attacked by flies if you decide to use the dumpster. Some people don't even use the dumpster and leave piles of garbage along the fence. Dogs left out in the heat with animal waste all over. Car break ins were constant during summer times. Spend the extra few hundred and live in a better area of SATX.

If I could give zero stars I would. They never answer their phone so if you want anything done you have to go in person. They also lost my previous roommates desk legs that were $200?? Which we’re still not even sure why they touched them in the first place doing maintenance?? My apartment lost electricity for a whole WEEK while I was out of town and nobody (including cps) could give me answers why. Their front desk staff literally doesn’t know a thing and will give you conflicting information... based on who you talk to. I’ve had to fight tooth and nail with them just to get them to keep their word about paying the early termination fee online. They also give me incorrect information regarding rent during my 60 day notice. I would rather sleep on nails then deal with them again Lee mas

Leaving sort of a long term review as I moved in September 2020 and I have to say the experience since has been very nice and extremely welcoming.

The front office was very accommodating during the sign up process and they were able to get me approved within the same day, much faster than other complexes who were sitting on my application for 3 days. There hasn’t been any hidden fees or unpleasant surprises ever since moving in, the valet trash is consistent and the trash compactor is easily... accessible to throw away any extra trash away. There are also about a dozen recycling bins next to the compactor so there are spaces to recycle in addition to just trash.

The maintenance team is on point, I haven’t used them much but every time I put in a request they came the same day, and with the new online portal they make filling out a request really easy.

The parking can get busy next to the buildings at night but they have a large lot near the entrance & the reserved car ports are only $35/mo, there is also a good amount of lights around the complex so it doesn’t look sketchy at night and easy to maneuver.

The actual apartment is very nice, the carpet feels new and the kitchen looks amazing with the white cabinets! I have to say that the patio is also really nice, enough space to put a table and chair outside if you wanted to get some fresh air. Also there isn’t any noise issues, most of the time I don’t even hear my neighbors at all and the only time I do hear them is if I hear dogs barking which is not in their control and not that disturbing. Honestly there isn’t anything wrong with the apartment units, if I wanted to nitpick I would say that that the laundry room door and the pantry door get in the way with each other which is kinda annoying but you just have to close one and move the other. Also at night you can hear some loud cars trying to race or something, I’m fine with it since I used to live next to Lackland and those jets were much worse haha, normal traffic isn’t noticeable.

The location is also pretty good, there’s a H-E-B, Walmart, & Sams Club all down the road and a good amount of restaurants nearby for eating out. Traffic around the place also isn’t bad, getting on DeZavala from I-10 is gonna be busy as that intersection has a lot of cars during peak hours, but it clears up fairly quickly.

Overall I would highly recommend this apartment complex if you’re looking for a place in the DeZavala area and near UTSA. Lee mas

Most of the reviews on this site are old. I've lived at Benton before it was Benton and it was pretty bad office staff wouldn't fix things. Lights throughout the property were always out and it didn't feel safe. In the last year ot has become a place to call my home. The property has been painted and updated and its improved 100%. The new staff has been here a little over a year and they've improved the property.
