735 West by 3L Living

I'll start off with saying the view from the apartment is great. Location great. Apartment itself is a good size. What I don't like is that not too long after move in, only one out of three elevators are working with no estimated fix date, so you have a whole building of people utilizing one elevator and you can spend 20 minutes waiting on it. And yes you could take the stairs but the stairwell is not only hot but walking up and down stairs when you live on one of the upper floors isn't exactly... ideal. And the elevator is always messing up so you never know if it will be you who gets stuck this time. The fire alarms are always randomly going off because the sprinkler system freezes in the winter. Occupants don't care about the other residents because they leave the trash chute open so you can't access it or leave their bags everywhere even after being told not to. People's dogs poop and pee in the elevator, right outside the door, everywhere surrounding the building so you're ALWAYS having to watch for poop bc no one picks it up and when it's warm it STINKS. The heating and cooling system is awful, when the heater is on it cannot regulate to one temperature so if you have it set to 70 it'll sometimes be 80+ degrees when you wake up. I'm constantly having to reset the thermostat and open windows. People are always messing with the doors that enter the building so who knows who you'll run into because there's a large homeless population also in the area. It's not a bad apartment at all but just some things to consider before moving in. Read More

Initially this place seemed like a nice apartment, but then I was left with a lot maintenance, cleanliness and noise issues. Not only the air conditioning system is inadequate and leaves you freezing in winter, but there is always a bad smell in the apartment entrance and in the halls and the floors are never properly cleaned. The walls are so thin I could hear the guy next-door whisper on his phone!

I chose to stay in this place since it was close to campus and one of the few (seemingly nice) options in the neighborhood, but I regretted very soon. Since Milwaukee is such a cold place, the heating was really important for me and I was freezing inside for the most part of winter due to poor heating system. The cleanliness is also a big issue with this apartment. There is always trash smell in the entrance and sewage smell in the laundry room and the floors are never properly cleaned. For the... price they ask, you would expect to live in a relatively decent place, but that's not happening! I wouldn't recommend staying in this place! Read More

Save your money find better place,This building is totally trash

During my time living here, numerous things needed fixing in my apartment, and it took FOREVER to get them fixed. My air conditioning and heat didn't work properly for the ENTIRE year that I lived there. I filed over 15 work orders and Kyle, the property manager, kept telling me there was nothing that they could do to fix it due to not having the correct part. I was without working heat in the winter for many months. While I do understand that supply chains can be slow, this is something you... need to be prepared for as a property manager so this issue doesn't persist for AN ENTIRE YEAR! Instead, he sent me condescending texts and told me the only thing he could do was move me to a more expensive apartment. Overall, the apartment is ok but the management is terrible. Read More
