The Abigail Apartments

I love living here. I lived here once before when I first moved to Knoxville 8yrs ago. then decided to move back into the complex 5yrs ago. The new manager here is great. She is very easy to talk to and is always fair. New maintenance guy is also a blessing. I just recently signed my new lease and am very happy with it.

You can’t even get packages to your apartment, management now forwards all packages to a post office down the road. This place has gotten worse by the minute over the past year. They only have two dumpsters for the entire complex, trash is everywhere, raccoons have even taken over the dumpsters because it’s that bad. Management is slow to fix any issues and won’t return calls….you can tell they are struggling big time/ or maybe just don’t care to enough to respond. All the buildings are old and... the cheap renovations are a pathetic bandaid on the structural and pest problems here . Read More

This place has gone downhill over the two years I've lived here. For one the building is fallen apart (my ceiling leaks more than it doesn't), and they can never decide what to do with packages. Now you can't even get your packages sent to you, they leave it at the post office. This place just gets worse every month

This place is a disaster. Initially, the place looks like a newly renovated complex with nice amenities , however, don't let it fool you. Multiple residents have had issues here recently, from cockroaches and other pests entering their apartments daily,mold in the bathrooms, to a literal FLEA infestation in a few of the apartments here. Absolutely disgusting.There are tons of holes and gaps in the baseboards, gaps in the doors etc..you easily can tell they cut corners when they renovated. This... certainly doesn't help with preventing the pest issue. Their maintenance staff is very nice for the most part and try to help with maintenance requests. Management needs to take a serious look at their approach towards these issues and keep in mind the wellbeing of their residents. Save your money and live literally anywhere else. Read More

This review is meant to warn others before they move to The Abigail Apartment complex

Upon arrival we were told that the unit was a “Down” unit, meaning that it had been completely re-finished. This was untrue as the following was the condition of the apartment.

-Bathtub peeling
-Kitchen Sink leaking and water damage beneath the sink
-No Air Conditioner (for 3 months)
-Sub floor and Floor had become separated creating deep -gaps beneath the carpet
-Broken Light
-Cracks in walls and paint
-Left... over thumb tacks from previous tenants (Stepped on multiple)
-Bugs (including but not limited to; Cockroaches, gnats, flies, and “potato” or stink bugs) in abundance
-Evidence of mold in the ductwork
-Dishwasher leaking/spraying
-Nonfunctioning electrical sockets
-Trash on balcony

We submitted these major items and other minor things (blemishes on walls, sinks, ect.) to the maintenance staff along with reporting them on the move-in sheet to make staff aware of the condition. After spending a weekend without air conditioning in 90 degree weather we finally received 1 air conditioner for our 2 bedroom apartment. Along with that, we were also informed that the lease we signed was the wrong one and we needed to sign the correct one. A week after we moved in, our maintenance request was received, and the manager came to our unit. After a quick inspection he simply walked out and changed all our maintenance requests to “completed”. Assuming we would soon be having our “completed” request fulfilled we pushed no further to have things done.

To be transparent, we lost our security deposit due to "dog smell" and the bathtub being resurfaced even though we requested it to be maintained. We do not wish for anyone to have to suffer the same grievances and misery we experienced living here. Read More
