Management, once I let them know I will not renew the least months down the line, made it clear they just want to make money from me. If you get caught with a bad roommate, good luck because management will not help you. They also press crazy moveout charges for things you shouldn't be responsible for (like paint just because you happened to move out a couple years after they last painted).

The other day they entered my apartment without permission. Once you rent, they don't care. The lease terms are ridiculous. Read it carefully!!!!! Also moving out is a nightmare. Come on do better & treat the residents as business partners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you first move in the managers at the leasing office will do whatever it takes to get your business but the moment you decide to move out they are very unpleasant to work with. When we decided to move out we notified the managers and sent an email to give them written notice. In the lease it states that there will be a $150 charge if the apartment is not professionally cleaned. One Saturday my sisters cleaning company helped clean out the entire apartment and the apartment was left... completely spotless. When we spoke to the leasing office the following week they said that we were still going to get charged the $150 regardless of the amount of time and energy spent on cleaning the apartment. I notified the managers that the apartment was professionally cleaned which then Beth proceeded to ask: “did you clean on top of the cabinets and inside the cabinets” answer..yes; “did you move the refrigerator and stove and cleaned behind them” answer..yes. She then proceeded to say in a very condescending tone “well you’ll probably still get charged anyways”.

The apartment was left completely spotless and pictures were taken to prove it. Beware if you are considering living here, it’ll be fine when you move in, but the moment you decide to move out it is just one headache after another. Read More

Been here two years. Elevators and main entrances are shut down due to construction which will probably take another year. Something's been under construction for the entire two years. Since I have to take a walkway from the stairwell now, I was extremely uncomfortable in the dark hopping an Uber to the airport at 5am. Used to be overwhelmed with homeless since there's a shelter a couple blocks away, but having to walk behind the restaurant, past the dumpsters and around construction... equipment - in the dark - is extremely unsettling. No signage, no lights, very little accommodation to ease the construction pain. Neighbor's footsteps above and shared walls are extremely loud. Now we know to always ask about concrete floors vs. steel beams and wood and will never live in an apartment again that is not concrete in between. Read More

I’m 67, disabled and retired from the Navy. One of the reasons I chose 21Fitz was to be close to the VA Hospital.
One thing I’ve learned about apartment living is you must be very clear about your needs when choosing your next home. Apartment staff aren’t mind readers.
I have a 4th-floor Unit, less than 700 sq ft, and it fits my large furniture. The floors are solid wood, so I’ve put down lots of rugs. They put in brand new washer and dryer stackables that are huge! I love them!!
Since the... CU/Anschutz/VA campus is a 2-minute walk, most residents are med students and doctors. If I were a parent, this is where I’d want my student to live. This is not party central. These students are serious about their education and seem to spend most of their time studying, sleeping and rushing off to class. There are comfortable study lounges in the buildings. I’ve seen students from all over the world here.
I’ve also seen a number of senior citizens here and I know that peace and quiet is a priority for us. The 4th floor is the most quiet, and I suggest putting down rugs with rug pads to be a good neighbor. The students here are good, respectful neighbors, too, holding the door for my pup and me.
Management and staff are the hub of this community and they’re always cheerful. They’re professional and knowledgeable. They always have a treat for our 4-legged roommates. They handle issues quickly. They care about your contentment with your home.
Maintenance is quick to respond to issues. They get out there to shovel snow and chip away at ice as soon as humanly possible when there’s a snowstorm. Housekeeping keeps the community sparkling. Trash and recycling disposal is easy with rooms on every floor that are kept clean.
When you move in, check your unit thoroughly from top to bottom to ensure everything meets your expectations. Take photos to help out management with your requests and for your documentation. When you move out, spend those extra hours making sure the apartment is just as clean as when you moved in. You won’t be charged a dime if you make the effort and you left no damage.
There will be a lot of construction going on for the next year because they’re growing. My place is insulated from the noise, so it doesn’t bother me. I think they offer special deals for units that are affected. If you can’t tolerate the activity, tell them so that they can help you choose an apartment in a quieter area.
I just wish I’d signed a longer lease! Read More
