Lloyd Apartments

This place is affordable, but other than that this is not the best place to live. I've had nothing but problem after problem since moving here. Walls are thin and neighbors are noisy. People will have loud parties where they blast the same three songs from early morning until late at night, with their friends drunkenly loitering in the apartment hallways at night. People smoke in the building and the stench wafts into my unit.

There are designated days where trash is collected from outside of... people's doors, but people will leave their trash sitting out all day every day. The custodian does a great job cleaning the hallways, but hours later all sorts of trash and dirt will be back. During the height of the pandemic they cleaned Monday through Friday, but now they're back to cleaning once a week.

The appliances constantly break down and I've had maintenance workers in and out of here to repair them. They also do constant unnecessary upgrades and there are contractors in and out of here regularly, even in the middle of a pandemic. I had to tell them to wear masks before entering my unit. I've never lived anywhere where contractors were in my unit on average of every other week until I moved to Lloyd Apartments. Other places I've lived at contract work and upgrades were minimal and minimally disruptive.

And do not get me started on the pests. Due to the above mentioned trash issue, rodents and roaches have a free-for-all in the building. The exterminator will come but the effects are temporary. They even have mandatory seasonal pest treatments too. Good luck finding a place to temporarily put your stuff during then, since the recent electric unit upgrades took up bedroom closet and linen closet space.

I'll say that the workers are friendly and decent, but that doesn't make for a good living experience. A lot of positive reviews during certain times, like April 2020, are because they posted a message to the tenant portal saying that they'd give people free hand sanitizer for reviews. That's not right.

If you have the means, move somewhere better. I will be doing just that when I can finally afford to move somewhere else. Lee mas

The apartment is beautiful, it is big, the bad thing is all the mice that run from the kitchen to the close to the bathroom and I have killed more than 15 mice but I don't know where so many come from, there are also cockroaches and other tiny insects, no matter how much I clean with chlorine and order as much as I can, the animals do not leave, the bad thing is that they have window air and being with that noise all the time no good and the wall heater is ugly because they control everything,... it was nice that One will control the heater, and the maintenance staff if I give them a 10 they are very friendly whenever I call they arrive as quickly as they can, with this I finish that they pick up the garbage at the door is lies ????? ??????? ...

The price is great and the location is okay. Everything else is either fine or awful. Except maintenance. The maintenance staff is lovely. The units are shoddily built, we’ve had our kitchen shelves fall apart because nothing is cut to the right size. Been dealing with mice for months. We’ve given up on management and have been shoving steel wool into holes instead because it’s not worth it. They can be very communicative but they rarely actually do anything. The walls are paper thin and our... neighbors are LOUD. I’ve had to invest in noise cancelling ear plugs just to stay sane in my own home. They leave their trash everywhere, and the poor cleaning staff has to deal with their piles of garbage after every weekend. This is a fine place if you can handle noise and bugs and your unit falling apart, since the price is reasonable and there’s a bus stop just off the property. It was a decent transition apartment before the covid pandemic, but actually spending time here has driven me to hate it. Lee mas

I have been living here for the past few years. Will be looking to move out soon. Moved here because it was cheap and close to a lot of things, but wish I'd spent a couple more bucks for something better.

Pros:
- Great location
- Very cheap
- Utilities included
- (Mostly) nice office staff
- Up to date appliances
- Maintenance team is very kind and responsive
- If you have long-term neighbors (people who've been here for many, many years with no intention of leaving), they're usually really... nice and great to get to know
- Street parking is free, but also limited parking in spots by your building

Cons:
- Constantly missing packages
- SO MANY MICE!!! No matter how many I catch or how many times I get treated, there's always just so many more.
- The laundry facilities are practically unusable (machines broken, machines don't really wash)
- Bed bugs
- Usually dead roaches in the common hallway
- People are CONSTANTLY leaving their trash outside of their apartments when it isn't trash day. In the summer, this particularly sucks because the bags are never fully closed and it always smells like rotten fish. So someone could leave their trash out all weekend and it just stinks up the entire building to the point where I have to put a towel under the front door to stop the stink from coming in.

My advice: spend a little bit more money for someplace nicer, ESPECIALLY if they're offering on-site laundry and you can utilize it (unlike here). Lee mas

I think these apartments are great I’ve been living here 3 years the community is great but I think that some of the different apartments with the bigger living rooms could use maybe a den or office especially with the amount of space in the living rooms management should consider adding them
