    Crumbling building, dirty, unsafe, neglected

    I live in this old, low-income complex (mostly 50+ residents) near Ashley Creek and the highway - the rent is low but it isn't worth it. Foundations are crumbling, doors don't seal (winter drafts, summer pests), walls and ceilings are stained/holed, vinyl floors have holes and burn marks, paint peels, windows are dirty and sidewalks feel unsafe. Management promises repairs that never happen, the laundry is barely usable (one weak dryer), common rooms close early, there are no activities or devotional services, and I don't feel cared for - I do not recommend it.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment from the reviews is predominantly negative, with multiple reviewers highlighting significant and recurring maintenance, cleanliness, and management problems. While affordability and location near Ashley Creek and highway access are positives mentioned by some, the condition of the property and the responsiveness of staff appear to be the dominant concerns. A few reviewers called the place nice and noted a mostly 50+ resident population, but these positives are outweighed by detailed descriptions of physical deterioration and poor upkeep.

    Facilities and physical condition: Reviewers consistently describe serious building and unit-level issues. Reports include crumbling foundations, doors that are not properly sealed (leading to winter drafts and summer pest problems), dirty walls and ceilings with water stains and holes, damaged vinyl flooring with holes and burn marks, and peeling paint. Long stretches without painting and dirty, outdated apartments contribute to an impression of neglect. Outdoor safety is also mentioned: sidewalks are reported as unsafe. The laundry room is specifically called out as poorly maintained, with only one dryer that does not heat well. Taken together, these facility issues point to both cosmetic and structural problems that may affect habitability and safety.

    Management and maintenance responsiveness: A clear pattern in the reviews is that management does not follow through on maintenance promises. Reviewers report unaddressed requests and a feeling of being poorly cared for. Common areas being closed early and restrictive decor policies further reinforce that management practices and policies are a concern for residents. These management issues compound the physical problems: when maintenance is slow or promises go unfulfilled, minor problems can become major ones, and residents feel disregarded.

    Cleanliness, upkeep, and living experience: Multiple reviewers emphasize that units are not clean — dirty windows, stained ceilings, and overall unclean apartments are repeatedly mentioned. The complex is described as outdated, and lack of ongoing upkeep is a running theme. Because of this, several reviewers conclude that the low rent does not represent good value: affordability is offset by the poor condition and insufficient maintenance.

    Community, activities, and services: The reviews indicate a lack of social programming and communal services. There are no reported activities or devotional services, and common rooms are reported as closed early, which limits opportunities for resident engagement. The demographic note that most residents are 50+ suggests a mature community, but the absence of organized activities or services might be a drawback for residents seeking social or spiritual programming.

    Location and value proposition: The complex appears to be positioned as a low-income, affordable option close to Ashley Creek and with convenient highway access. For renters prioritizing cost and location, this may be appealing. However, the numerous accounts of structural issues, cleanliness problems, and management unresponsiveness lead many reviewers to judge the property as poor value despite low rent.

    Overall conclusion: Reviews paint a picture of an older, low-income apartment complex with significant maintenance and cleanliness deficiencies and management that is often unresponsive. While the property has merits in affordability and location, the recurring and specific complaints — crumbling foundations, unsealed doors, water stains and holes, damaged flooring, unsafe sidewalks, and inadequate laundry facilities — create substantial concerns about safety, comfort, and long-term livability. Prospective residents should weigh the cost savings against the likelihood of ongoing maintenance problems and limited community services; those considering this property should inspect units carefully and confirm the responsiveness of management before committing.

    About Ashley Creek Court

    Ashley Creek Court offers a place for seniors age 55 and older with several care options, including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and independent living, and the staff provides a range of care like ambulatory care, non-ambulatory care, diabetic care, and incontinence care, which is good if someone needs steady medical help or daily support, and folks looking for a pet-friendly spot will find that cats and dogs are allowed, though there's a weight limit of about 16-20 pounds for each animal. Residents get meals as part of their stay and have access to indoor common areas, so there's a setting for chatting, relaxing, or joining in on group activities, which staff keep going both on-site and offsite, giving different options depending on what people enjoy. Devotional services are available, and organized spiritual activities happen on and off the premises to encourage spiritual growth and social connections, which can be nice for those who value faith or gathering with like-minded neighbors. There's a focus on a warm and inviting community environment, and the facility offers different amenities aimed at making life comfortable and encouraging friendships, like those indoor spaces for social interaction and a variety of floor plans for the living units. Meals come with service, so residents don't need to worry about cooking, and staffing includes ancillary services to cover extra needs. Ashley Creek Court supports a home-like feeling for seniors, and weekly activities try to help people stay active and involved, though the environment keeps things pretty relaxed, with simple comforts and necessary medical care close at hand.
