Loud Neighbors/Bad management
If i could give zero stars i would have. Loud neighbors and dogs barking all hours of the night and day to where you barely get any sleep or get any piece and quiet. Ive Complained to the landlord so many times and she doesn't do anything about it. They allow smoking on your patio so you can never open your windows otherwise your place will smell like cigarettes and also you will have cigarette ashes all over your patio furniture.

Best spot I've lived in yet!
I have absolutely loved living in Tradition Apts. in Ankeny. Our place was very, very spacious, affordable, comfortable, and came with a pool on site, a clubhouse to use for gatherings for free, and even a basketball court on the complex! Tiffany is very reliable and helpful, and on the occasions there may have been a question or a problem, she and the team would resolve things within the day, easily. I Will miss living here, and this town in general

Horrible management
I’ve lived here a total of 4 years. In that time, my ground floor unit flooded, forcing me to move. After moving back my A/C quit working the beginning of summer and it took them an entire month to get it fixed. A week later my washer broke and they had to order a new one. There’s been a giant hole in the stairwell wall for about 5 months. The front door to my building gets yanked open and it’s broken about half the time. My neighbor let his puppy pee in the hallway right outside my door and... management did nothing. They don’t clean the pool, so the sides are covered in algae and the water is green. There is no maintenance man so there are overgrown weeds covering the entire property. Nobody picks up after their pets so there is dog poop everywhere that puts out an odor. Smoking is allowed on the balcony so you can’t sit outside or open your windows unless you want to smell it. The hallways smell of marijuana constantly. Packages get delivered to the office, but nobody tells you. There have been no updates to the property since it was built. And after all that, they raised the rent. Find somewhere else to live and save yourself the stress.

Management suck here!
The management here sucks! I asked them to fix my laundry, it took more than two months to just come and take a look at it. When the guy came he said ‘it doesn’t look bad, are you sure this isn’t working well? ???????‘. After that I called them for my electric owen, and the same thing happened, the maintenance guy came and said maybe the power courd is not connected well, just try to push it harder once in a while ????. He surely doesn’t know what he is talking about. These days for Christmas... they made a competition where the most decorated patio would win some money, and one of the three prices went for themselves for decorating the patio of the apartment where they live. It was ridiculous! The apartments aren’t good enough too, prepare to pay a lot of bills because nothing it’s included in the price. The isolation is bad so you’re electric bill is always $100+. In general, this place is not worth the money and the management’s behavior is weird!
