Pretty Good but Could be better

Very close to school. Train and upstairs neighbor can be loud at times. Maintenance is good. Like the garage. Pretty safe. Three packages stolen in three years. Plenty of room.

What you need without the Bells and Whistles

The apartment is close enough to the law school that walking, biking or driving are all viable options for transportation. We were lucky enough to move into a first floor unit with an attached garage that has allowed us to own a kayak, smoker/grill, and shielded us from hail and other weather. The place looks like it could use an update, but for the price you can’t beat it. The pool is simple and the gym is comparable to a hotel exercise room with a couple cable machines, a few free weights and a few treadmills. The dog park area is nice, but simple. The area feels safe and we have never had anything stolen despite having left our garage open over night several times by accident. Parking is free but scarce without an attached garage. The train noise may be a problem if you need total silence and the windows in the master bedroom let in too much light and are not easily covered by a curtain. Walls are thin. Light sleepers might want to avoid. Not very many communal or study areas. Big dogs allowed, I have seen several mixes and German shepherds. Overall it is a good option for those not looking to pay for the niceties or luxury of a brand new apartment but wants the convenience of living close to the school.

Ok place, but too expensive

Rent increased 200 when we went to renew. Not worth the price. Everything is very old (appliances, floors, cabinets, and shower). Close to the Law School and only takes 4 mins to get to class. Office people are not very nice. Maintenance guys are friendly. Lots of dog poop on the property. Garbage backs up and is not well managed. Too close to the train and freeway, very noisy.

The Depot Apartments Review

Nothing to complain about but no merits, either.

I like living at The Depot.

I like this apartment complex because it is very close to the law school. My drive is about 5 minutes which is nice because I spend a lot of time at the school, but I can always run home quickly if I need to. Also, it’s a little bit cheaper than some of the other properties. Of course, that means that the amenities aren’t top notch, but I think they are good enough. I don’t really spend a lot of time at my apartment because of how busy I am with school, so I am happy to have average amenities if that means paying a little less for my apartment.

Great location -- not much else

VERY good location. The good stops there. I have lived here for 1.5 years. I will be moving out in august when my lease is over. Clientele has gone down. Very dark parking lot. Machines in gym are broken. They have a residents lounge that is only open about 4 hours a day. Coffee machine is broken 50% of the time -- although when it works there's great coffee. Management told me last year when I renewed my lease that the entire building would be renovated -- showed me the paint colors, countertops, flooring, backsplash, etc. Now they claim they never told me that and my apartment will not be renovated. Disappointed in honesty of management, the horrible smell, and the fact that I don't let my girlfriend walk outside alone at night for safety concerns.

DO NOT LIVE HERE

We have had a horrible experience even before we moved in. Unless this is your last option or the only option, or you want to be very close to the school then do not live here.

Not a good apartment

This apartment was very close to campus which was convenient. The floors are thin, so I can hear everything the people above me do. The walls are also thin, I can hear people talking outside or walking up the stairs. Management was very unresponsive. We had a hole in our ceiling which was avoided for two months before anyone came to fix it. We had problems with pests and hornets that were getting in through cracks in the door. Unless you pay for a reserved spot, there are rarely spaces unless you park in guest parking.

Close and relatively cheap, but pretty gross

When we went to look at a model apartment, it was nice and renovated. They told us our unit would not be renovated but did not allow us to see an unrenovated apartment. When we moved in it was nasty. Mold on the vents, floors were gross, and cabinets were filthy. They gave us a 200 dollar credit on our rent for the conditions, but it was not worth it. You can never get ahold of the office and there is dog poop everywhere. It has gotten a little bit better as of late, they hired a few good maintenance people. if you move here, make sure you see YOUR apartment before moving in or signing a lease.
