101 N Ripley Apartments

I've lived here for years and I'm counting down the days until my lease is up. Contractors have keys to your apartment and walk in unannounced and without notice (seriously, you'll wake up in the morning or get out of the shower and there will be a stranger in your apartment), hallways smell like garbage and pet urine, there is a SERIOUS mouse and cockroach issue (see other reviews), there's a mismanagement of utility charges so you'll see random and inconsistent charges on your monthly... statement. This is just scratching the surface. Front office staff gaslight you and arent able to answer your questions about your lease or the utility charges. They get you into your apartment then leave you to fend for yourself with the mice and roaches. Read More

Don't move here! There's mice and they don't do anything about it! Last year we found 15 and supposedly they fixed the problem. Now we are finding more in the kitchen! It's disgusting! Also there's always trash in the hallways that you can't even go up the stairs and smells , and black thing is coming out from out air ducts.

Terrible place to live. Mice and roaches everywhere

I like this place but have to move because I bought the house. This building is quiet, has green trees, and has good neighbors, close to everywhere. The thing is a significant reason for five stars rating is the management staff. Melissa and Myra are both supers, very friendly. All of the problems got solved fast—such a great experience for me.

We moved in less than a month ago. When I viewed the space, I was shown a model unit since my unit "wasn't ready". I was told my unit would be renovated. After getting the keys and coming in to check out my new apartment, I found that the unit was not renovated, and there are cockroaches everywhere. I reported it, and was told pest control would be by the next day. No one was in my unit the next day and when I called, the office manager argued with me and said that they were. That they had... sprayed a gel in my cabinets- that were filled with food.. so essentially my food was covered with pesticides if she was correct but I wasn't to worry about it. Since then, after complaining to the property manager, her response was "I'm sorry to hear that, we will keep sending pest control". So in the meanwhile, my toddler and I are just supposed to deal with it. Under my kitchen sink, there is a hollow space that has been covered with a plastic sheet that is drilled in. They also have "valet trash" which is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen in an apartment complex. You are to place your trash outside your front door after 6pm and two guys in a nasty pick up truck will pick it up between 6pm-9pm, however, you're not required to bring your trash receptacles inside until 9am the following morning. So it's acceptable to keep trash bins in the halls from 6pm-9am. No wonder there are cockroaches. This place is disgusting. And I do not plan to just sit and wait for these careless property managers to fix anything. Read More
