Kat is Amazing! From the friendly and courteous welcome to the community, to the above and beyond customer service! My wife just had hip surgery and she offered to carry our groceries! You cant beat that. She decorates for every holiday and brings an awesome atmosphere to the apartment! We cant say enough about her and appreciate everything she does!! 5 stars, A+, 10/10

Ive lived here for over 2.5 years. Will be 3 years once I leave. There are many things I love about the Parkside. I like the location. The units having washer/dryer. The trash shoot right outside units, the design, etc. But my main complaints are: the walls are insanely thin. I can hear my neighbors conversations word for word. Someone moved in the other day and they were so loud they knocked a piece of art off my wall.??? Also the elevator frequently goes out for whatever reason. It just went out again a couple days ago leaving a man trapped inside for over an hour. Can you imagine being stuck in an elevator for over an hour? What if he had to be at work? Pick up his kids? And it would be fine if this was a rare thing but its not. As someone who lives on the 5th (highest) floor, its annoying to have to walk up and down 5 flights of stairs anytime you need to do something! Management does their best (I think..) but things should be better for the prices they charge.

Don't move here. I was woken up this morning by the smoke detector, only to see that it was being set off by a steady stream of water flowing right through it. We had previously submitted a request to get the ceiling looked at, as we had noticed a stain that seemed to be getting darker. A month later, it's blessing us with our own personal rainfall shower...right onto the carpet of our upstairs bedroom. Now, the ceiling looks like it's about to bring someone's washer/dryer unit right into our apartment, and management decided to take the weekend off just like several instances before this :) Update: Still can't get ahold of anyone down in the main office, but they put the thinnest available plastic sheet over the ceiling, and trekked drywall slime all over the apartment that we apparently have to clean up ourselves. I posted pictures for reference! Update 11/21/23 Upon turning in the keys, we were told the staff didn't have time for an exit walk-through. She let us know that it was fine, and she'd get in touch within the week to let us know about our deposit. This was on the 31st of October. After multiple unanswered calls/emails/voicemails, we receive a statement on 11/16 in which they charged us a $500 cleaning fee. Went down to the office in person after being told Michelle would be there, only to be met with yet another excuse as to why she wasn't around. The only "clarity" the "receptionist" was able to provide, was that they charged us $500 because SHE cleaned a lint trap in the dryer, vacuumed an already vacuumed unit due to some residual dog hair, and a slight dent in the carpet left behind by a kennel. Having two dogs, we put down a combined $1000 pet deposit in which they keep $250 each pet, which brings me to the confusing part: What does the $500 non-refundable pet deposit cover? There was no damage done to the unit, no pee/fecal stains, no claw marks. But I'm also not surprised considering the numerous times management has shown their incompetence. Record everything, document everything, and make sure you're present anytime they're in your unit. Once again, I suggest you look elsewhere.
