Edge College Hill

"I moved in recently because I started PA school in RI, but because I was accepted so last minute, I needed a place asap. The reviews made me apprehensive, but I still decided to come tour, which ultimately lead to me signing a lease. The leasing agent, Daaren, was great. He showed me around both buildings and countless units (very grateful for this), and went out of his way to be accessible between signing and moving in. He was truly wonderful! When I moved in, Daniela (the resident director?) was there to help make sure everything was settled. She has consistently been wonderful, and she and Daaren work to make this place run. Maintenance is also great at coming in a timely fashion! I didn’t give a full 5 stars because the building isn’t perfect, but it’s definitely not bad like the other reviews make it seem. I consistently have hot water, the unit is nice and modern, and the location is unbeatable. The cons would have to be the building-controlled AC/heat, the flawed package system, and the communal wifi. While those are the reasons I didn’t give a full five starts, they’re definitely very manageable, and living here has been great so far!"

"The worst living experience in my life. This place is suitable for those who don't need hot water, don't need heating, can sleep with noise. It's not suitable for sensitive individuals. Despite paying a hefty rent every month, there's no stable hot water – it lasts only two minutes, and I've been enduring cold showers for three months. Imagine working for the whole day and then comeback home and you can’t even take shower cuz it’s ice cold, and this happens EVERY SINGLE DAY. The heating here is also unreliable; I had to buy an electric heater myself. The walls are thin; I can hear my neighbors' alarm clocks and even their snoring. It's like a survival challenge every day, and once you sign the lease, there's no way out, even if you give up the deposit. Because of this, the management office rarely addresses any issues since you're obligated to pay rent regardless. I thought I moved into a luxurious apartment, but it feels more like survival in wilderness. The most messed up part is that I have to pay for all these non-functional hot water systems and heating. Highly, highly not recommended – it's beyond having minor flaws; it's simply uninhabitable."

"Absolutely unacceptable! I'm living in an apartment where basic amenities like hot water are a luxury! For weeks now, there's been no hot water for showers. How is one supposed to maintain basic hygiene and comfort in such conditions? Despite multiple complaints, the issue persists with no resolution in sight. It's infuriating to pay rent for an apartment that fails to provide something as fundamental as hot water. This is not just inconvenient, it's downright neglectful and disrespectful to tenants. Action needs to be taken immediately! Rating: 1 star (if I could give zero, I would!)"

"Worst apartment I've ever lived in. If you want to live in jungle life without even hot water, try this apartment. I've been living here for 3 months and I can only take shower with freezing cold water. And leasing office won't fix it for months."

"I rented here for 1 year and moved out last month. As of today I have yet to receive my security deposit. RI law states that security deposits must be returned within 20 days so I called the leasing office on 11/1/23 after it reached this deadline. I was told by the person answering the phone that I did not provide my forwarding address so they could not send it. I explained to her that I had sent my new address in an email one month prior to moving out, which Denise responded to. They then stated that the check would be sent out that day. As of 11/8/23 I have yet to receive my deposit back. I sent them an email asking for confirmation that a check had been sent, which they did not respond to. I also called and have not received a call back. At this point I will be pursuing legal action against the leasing company. If you are considering renting here please be aware of your tenant rights and don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself because they will take advantage of you."
