Tiffany Manor,

90 Tiffany Blvd, Newark, NJ 07104, United States

"The property has the potential to be beautiful but management does not take the time or money at maintaining the upkeep. The laundry room is infrequently cleaned and the courtyard is adorned with large rocks which were uncovered from past repairs and never corrected. Where there should be grass there are rocks, dirt and mud. Management could correct the problem by maintaining the property and planting grass seeds to cover the large areas of dirt and bare soil, but they don't. I'm certain that if the majority of tenants were anglo Saxon as opposed to African American, the upkeep would be much better than it currently is. Mr. Bankston, the property manager, is extremely unprofessional, rude and truly and unpleasant person to deal with. She never returns tenant calls and is slow to act upon any tenant request, if she acts at all. I have conducted business with 20 year olds who are more professional and compassionate. I can reasonably assume that if Tiffany Manor were located in Montclair or Summit, the tenets needs would be addressed in an expeditious manner. I would not recommend Tiffany Manor to anyone interested in renting an apartment."

"Neighborhood is changing. It's a lot noisier now which is unpleasant. We're moving but overall it's been a pleasurable experience especially for Newark. We've had the occasion of particularly pesky neighbors with regard to some leaving garbage outside their door being too lazy to walk it to the dumpster but the office took care of it promptly. Overall, it's been good."

"If I could give this apartment complex a zero star rating I would. I honestly don’t even know where to begin. The staff in this apartment complex needs to be retrained especially Zakkiyyah Bankston, she is rude, disrespectful, and unhelpful. I’m not even sure how she has a job. Zakkiyyah makes up her own rules based on how she is feeling. If you have a maintenance issue in your apartment you have to wait about 2-3 weeks for someone to come fix it . Meanwhile the maintenance guy David lives on the premises. Also the main gate NEVER works, so you will literally be locked out your apartment because you can’t get in the gate. I live there for one year and that gate has only worked for about 3weeks and not even 3 weeks straight. If you are thinking about moving to this complex, I wouldn’t, take your time and find a better apartment!!!!!!!!"

"The management at this place is completely disgusting! Zakiayyah Bankston is a poor excuse of what a manager of a leasing office should be. She literally has refused to offer help to her tenants and she speaks to people with a nasty attitude. She even had the nerve to tell me (a tenant) she didn’t have to answer any of my questions when I found out that she misplaced my car documents and license information. When I asked her what did she do with them her response was “I don’t need to explain that to you”. When issues are escalated above her level, she lies to her upper management to make it seem like the tenants are the ones in the wrong. And it’s extremely sad that I’m moving out because my apartment is actually nice but I rather leave so I don’t have to deal with Zakiayyah’s ridiculous attitude. She literally talks down to me and my roommate as if we are kids and she continues to display so much racial and age discrimination. My roommate and I are young women who have great jobs and make very good money. We always pay rent on time and are respectful to our neighbors and people around us. If the upper management in this place has any common sense they would fire Zakiayyah because she will literally be the reason why people move out. I have an entire letter written about my experience here at Tiffany Manor! I am willing to share the nonsense ranging from having our authorized vehicle in our own parking spot towed, to the front gate not working leaving us locked out, and to being late to work waiting on management to finally show up at the leasing office for me to submit urgent maintenance requests."

"Management treats people unfairly. If Mrs. Johnson does not like you for any small reason she will talk and treat you like dirt and will try anything in her power to make your life as difficult as possible even if this means performing illegal acts. If she does like you then you can do whatever you'd like without repercussion. It is a beautiful place to live and i enjoy living here but dread having to go to the office to speak with her if i have any issues because of the way she speaks to people who dont kiss up to her. She is not approachable, personable and is very spiteful.. beware neighbors.."
