Iâve lived here for 2 years and I only have good things to say about Ida and the maintenance team â theyâre always friendly and helpful. The location is also great for students since itâs close to the university.
However, there are several issues. The gym has basically turned into a sauna, with no AC for months, and itâs often a bit dirty. Picking up packages is frustrating because the office is frequently closed, and then they complain that packages are left too long â but no one is there to pick them up.
Iâve tried multiple times to speak with the manager, but sheâs rarely available. The few times I did catch her, she was rude and also gave me wrong information twice about ending my lease. To make it more confusing, different staff members at the front desk also gave me conflicting info about lease terms.
In my first week living here, there was a naked homeless man in the pool, and nothing was done until I had to call the police myself, no apology from management either. Things improved a bit after they fixed the gates, but now theyâre often left open again (probably because of the new restaurant), which doesnât make sense since residents are still paying monthly for parking.
In front of the building thereâs a park full of homeless people, Iâve even gotten warnings from the university about stabbings there.
Also, be really careful with the lease terms. If you canât stay the full year, you could face big penalties: they charge you a fee of over $700 plus the next monthsâ rent if you need to leave early, even for serious reasons like your visa expiring. So make sure youâre really committed to staying in Tucson before signing.
