I saw the reviews and thought the same thing “surely they’re making that up” or “not every apartment has this problem” but I’m telling you, it’s real. They’re in my cabinets. I’ve put in so many work orders and been on the pest control list feels like every week and they’re not doing anything to get to the problem they put up sticky traps and call it a day. Don’t touch this place with a 10ft pole!

This place had so many roaches
No matter how clean you kept your apartment, there was a ton of the small German cockroaches. I even had some crawl into my bed. Once It was absolutely disgusting they renamed the place all the time and repaint it so that they can trick people. But this place is a absolute dump. Go somewhere else. Don't waste your money here.

Roaches, Refuse and Paper-thin construction.
I wish I could post some photos of this sad, dirty, neglected complex. There is no management on site. Good luck filing a maintenance request. The link is broken. Rent is almost $1300/month.

Looking forward towards my future apartment
I am in the middle of being on my own for the first time in a long time. I came to Metro on First and was impressed by the lushes landscaping and their recent renovation in their units that it left me in AWE!. I was very happy with the staff Stephanie answered my questions about the concerns I had with the application process and deposit that would be possibly involved. I also had the privilege of also meeting the property manager her name was Cassandra I believe. She was such a delight and was... very engaging and welcoming too. Cassandra assured to me that her mission is to make this the best property to reside and I believe her because she showed such passion for her property and her staff too. I am looking forward to moving here in the next 3 weeks. I highly recommend this location!

Go somewhere else
They suck at answering emails and phone calls. My fiancé and I applied and paid the hold fee, which is money we would like back and we have yet to hear anything back from them. Its been a week. They haven’t contacted us at all yet and still has our money that we want back. It’s really not worth the headache and losing your money for. If i could rate zero stars I would
