Whitney Hall Apartments

Please, please do not waste your money here.
1) The major issue I had with this listing is with the management; it took me two years of constant pestering to gain *most* of my security deposits back. You will either need to take them to court or call and bother Bob daily in order to get your money back. Multiple similar testimonies can be found across Google and the better business bureau website.
2) Management pays tenants to write good reviews, so do not believe what positive reviews you see.... There was a woman who smoked weed and cigarettes on the same floor as me, so I reported this to management. Management (Bob) told me he/they asked this person to stop. Of course, smoking continued. I was told by management nothing else could be done. I later found out that this was the person that management asked to write multiple positive reviews (this person told me this, directly), so I assume there was some degree of "looking the other way" at play.
3) You will not control your own heating and air conditioning. Temperatures may be sub-par for some. I found the apartment particularly freezing all year (the windows are also very poorly insulated).
4) The apartments are not well cleaned before moving in. I spent hours scrubbing the bathroom to remove shower and bath grime after I moved in.

This place is worthless. Look elsewhere. Read More

Avoid this place! We moved out at the end of July after two years living here and management withheld our security deposit without providing any accounting for any deductions made. In addition, we cannot get a response from their "office" in our attempts to resolve this amicably. There is no central office location, only a PO box and a property manager. This is an awful place to live and the security deposit issue was icing on the cake! Stay far away!

This is absolutely the worst management company I've ever dealt with! They are non-responsive after you sign a lease. They'll hold your security deposit captive until you sue them! The building isn't soundproof; and if you like racoons, enjoy finding them in the trashcans so be careful!!!! Wait until you hear the doors slam! Man!!!! Just ask them about the location of their office if you don't believe me and others because of the fake 5 star reviews. If I could give this review 0 stars I would!

I have lived in this building for the past 4 years and have never had any major issue that was not resolved in a reasonable timespan. The manager is respectful and answers his phone during regular business hours, and if called outside of that time will call or text within 24 hours. The worst maintenance issue I have had is a leaky toilet seal, which happened very early on in my rental and was repaired within 2 days. I have never regretted moving in here and would only move if forced to for work... or purchasing a home.

You do not have the ability to control your thermostat in this building, but you also don't have to pay utilities for heating or air conditioning. In fact, it can sometimes be too cool in the summer and too warm in the winter, which is certainly no cause for complaints!

The only actual issues I have had in this building are tenant-related, such as second hand smoke from neighbors through the vents, or stolen packages (which has not happened to me personally.) But, since I began renting, the building is now non-smoking only and packages have been consistently secure for the past couple years, and they are quite frequently delivered inside or at least under the awning.

Parking is usually available out back, and vehicles parked there have remained safe even despite very rare car thefts in the larger neighborhood.

Water is clean and clear and hot water virtually never runs out. Whenever water maintenance is necessary, shut offs are announced days in advance except in rare emergency situations. Trash is removed on a regular basis, and common areas cleaned at least once a month. Some exterior facing walls in the apartment are made of plaster and tend to disintegrate, but never leak. Floors and walls are thick
concrete blocks and I hardly ever hear any neighbors, the noise curfew of 11pm tends to be respected.

So happy I moved here when I did, you will not regret it! The neighborhood is great too, perfect for small families and those wishing for a quiet, calm environment. Only a couple blocks from a quaint coffee shop and mailbox, as well as churches and a family library. Read More
