Yugo Cincinnati Deacon Apartments

My son and I applied for him to take over a lease. there was no open application process, juts a specific process open for him to take over the lease. I paid 330 usd for the application fee to learn that Yugo Deacon does not accept a document for financial income from a person (me as cosigner) who is not from the USA. In 2020 they did accepted, but now 'the rules has changed'. They asked for a 12 month lease payment upfront. To be honest this was in my opinion an invention of the Manager at... the time, as probably someone else wanted the room. I called her I spoke with her she agreed to refund the application fee if we decided not to proceed. We decided not to proceed. Now we have an open issue in refunding these 330 usd. We have still not received the refund and we need to fight to receive it apparently. Reaching anyone by phone is a lotarry. So international students be vary of scams. Read More

First of all the pictures on this website are false advertising, that is not what the deacon looks like and most of its “amenities” have been closed all year including the pool, tanning beds, golf simulator, most of the arcade games. in the beginning of the year, their solution to flooding was to move uc students to a hotel in northern Kentucky, over 20 minutes from campus. They put up a sign in the lobby that tells you they are watching you and simply do not seem to respect their tenants at all... . I hope they get a taste of reality one day. Read More

Do not move in here they don’t care about handling are managing nobody ever answers they only care about collecting rent I don’t know how this is a new luxury building It already flooded they already have to deal with mold they’re pulling out new carpet not saying why and there’s a bug infestation because everyone is getting bit by the legs over there especially on the third floor area do not move in here

My son rented from the deacon. They told he and I they are set up for his coop program and he would not have to pay rent if he is not going to stay there during his coop semester. When it came down to giving them notice he was moving out due to his coop, they denied having promised this. However, they did because i spoke to them multiple times on this issue prior to signing the lease. Ultimately, they refused to attempt to release his space and threatened to take us to court if we did not... pay rent when he was not living in his apartment during his coop.
I do not believe they operate ethically.
I also noticed every review here is 1 star yet the sight is displaying an avg rating of 4.5......odd Read More

The building is horribly done, nothing like the picture. The staffs are very rude and unhelpful. There were a couple of break-ins and residents never really get noticed. It is an okay place, but definitely not worth the price at all.
