Chateau Royale

Great location, responsive management

Would not recommend living here. You will not see your security deposit again. No matter how good of condition you leave it or move out early to get the free carpet cleaning, they will find a way to take your security deposit. The apartments are old and cheap, and do not come move in ready. Multiple car break ins.

I found this place online before moving to Morgantown. It looked online as if there were not many rentals available. There are many options, you just have to go beyond Apartments.com.

Apartment and management were terrible. The entire apartment was full of mold mildew. The air conditioner had so much mold in it I could not even run the A/C unit without it smelling like a stagnant pond. The bathroom ceiling leaked water down onto the floor and sink every time the person above me showered. It look them over two months and 5 visits to get this fixed. The carpet was the worst part. If you touched the carpet with your hand, you hand smelled like nasty B/O, probably from years of dogs, mold and mildew. I even paid for the carpet to be professionally cleaned and it didn't do a thing. Last, management will nickel and dime you through the lease agreement to drain your security deposit when you move out. As a part of the lease agreement security deposit charges, they charged for everything from light bulbs to the cleaning fee for the next tenant.

There are way cheaper, better, cleaner options all over this side of Morgantown that offer much better value than this dump. Don't live here unless you want to become great friends with someone at the health department.

I have lived in the 918 building for almost 2 years now and I have had no issues with management or even my neighbors. Lots of people who live here either work at Ruby Hospital or are students in the Law School, both locations are very walkable from here. Maintenance can take a while to respond, but they are helpful and friendly. People who live here are nice but everyone keeps to themselves, few undergraduate students so most are either graduate students or have full-time jobs so average age is probably 22-25.

Compared with other buildings in the complex 918 is by far the 'prettiest', safest-feeling, and modern apartment they have available. The "letter" buildings are old, probably late-90s and just look worse both inside and out, although they are a tad cheaper and probably better than lots of other apartments in Morgantown.

Parking is very good, pool is nice, gym is fine - rent does not include utilities.

The newer apartment buildings are very nice, property also has many older buildings not nearly as nice.

I like living here because it is within walking distance of the law school. Having a gym on site it also nice. The office staff are very friendly and easy to work with.

Nice location and apartment. Management isn’t the best.

thermostat sucks, but everything else is pretty okay. you can usually get a good deal on internet in august

We had a major problem with neighbors above us smoking all sorts of things and the odor coming down the ventilation shafts. Despite many, many complaints to the management they would not do anything. They have clauses in the lease saying things like “tenants may not do anything that would increase the risk of fire such as candles or grills” and “tenants may not act in such a way that disturbs or harasses other tenants.” Upon bringing this up to management and pointing to the neighbor’s violations, they told me “those clauses are not for you, those are to protect us.” They simply refused to help despite other claims such as it being a health hazard due to asthma. So pray to God that you get good neighbors because you’re on your own.

Very clean upon move-in. Has a nice setup in terms of room for a single person and dog. Very close to the law school, makes and easy drive. Plus it’s a good walk for a dog to go up there.
