Steeples Glen Apartments

"It was a horrible experience. My daughter turned in her key on 10/31 and was told she would get her $368.75 deposit back in the mail. We gave it a few months, thinking it would take time. We called four times in January and were told it usually only takes 30 to 45 business days. Management said it was a new bank systems issue, and the owner had to wait on the bank because 30 checks had been sent back. According to management, the bank made a mistake. In the course of this, we've learned from other college students who had rented from them that they NEVER got their deposits back. The lady named Linda finally called me on January 23rd and said the owner wanted to verify our new mailing address because he was putting the check in the mail. Well, we are now February 27th, and STILL NO CHECK!! Should it take 118 days to get your deposit back? Do not rent from them. They should not call it a deposit if they never intend to return it to you. They are taking advantage of college students. $368 may not seem like much, but if you are a broke college student, it makes a huge difference. We are filing a report with the Better Business Bureau."

"Decent for being close to campus. Get there early the day they open new leases or you may not make the list. Very competitive since it’s “off campus” but especially close to the college of business and the new engineering building. I hope you like trains rattling your bed in the dead of night as they come through at all hours! Some people get used to them but I could never."

"Lived there for a year, building 310, other than limited parking (due to people parking illegally without permits) we had no other issues! Rent plus $10 gas and about $35 utilities a month, totaling ~$400/mo and you have your own bathroom! I would definitely recommend it!"

"Lived here for half a year now, rent is relatively cheap compared to every where else in the area as long as it's split four ways, and it's extremely close to campus. Unfortunately those are about the only two things good about it, here's the issues: 1) The Internet has been down or barely functioning the entire time I've lived here. That is not an exaggeration, the Internet has been terrible literally every day. 2) Getting things fixed is almost impossible. Repeated calls to the office about maintenance issues, including the aforementioned Internet problems have failed to produce any results. 3) Terrible management. Part of the issue as to why it's so hard to get the Internet fixed is that in order to get someone out there to repair it you have to call the realtor, who then has to call the owner, who then has to call the Internet company. This system leads to a long wait with a whole lot of nothing at the end. 4) The Internet, when (barely) functioning, is also unsecure. What does this mean for you? It means that if you use the Internet provided by Steeples Glen any passerby in the street could connect to your WiFi and steal your passwords and bank information. 5)The Inside of the apartments are disgusting. The rooms on the inside have frayed and stained carpet and the walls are full of holes. Being inside this apartment for an extended period of time leaves you wanting to take a shower. Preferably not in the apartment shower, since it's just as disgusting as the rest of the apartment. 6) There is train tracks right next to the apartments. The trains seem to pass by constantly and depending on which apartment you're in not only cause the entire building to shake but also are unbearably loud. Overall, would I recommend? If you're a heavy-sleeper who doesn't mind living in a disgusting apartment and are willing to pay for your own Internet connection separate from the one provided, then sure, otherwise steer clear of this mess."

"Steeples Glen.... I lived there for a year with some friends from high school, my junior year of college (2014-15) Pros: -Walking distance to School -Maintenance gets problems solved fast -Good price if you split it 4 ways - Staff at office isn't too friendly but they're efficient Cons - You're literally 50 to 200 ft away from the train tracks depending on your unit - Some of the units are pretty nasty looking (stains on carpet, water damaged floor boards, holes and nails in the wall from last tenants, ect) - Look nice from the outside but inside feels "cheep". Personally wouldn't want to live there again. WOULD NOT recommend it if you're a light sleeper, but if you can deal with the "cheap/nasty" feel of them they're a solid choice."
