CWS Apartment Homes, LLC

Great one bedroom for the price

I’ve enjoyed it so far. But they just came under new management this year so I can’t say for certain that I will continue to. The gym hands-down is the best of all apartments in Fort Worth. Very close to school.

Love the physical apartment and amenities in the property! However, they recently switched management and they are very difficult to work with.

I love my apartment. The space is really large and an amazing layout. The apartment complex has a lot of green space and includes a dog park. Also, the location is amazing. It is right next to downtown, only a 10 minute walk to sundance square and less than a 10 minute drive to West 7th.

The amenities (like the gym and pool) are great, but the rent is still a little high for sub-par management. We recently came under new management that is still working out some kinks. They are doing a lot of work on the exterior, which is great, but it has taken them more than a month to replace lightbulbs in my kitchen! I would recommend when you go for tours that you see not only the model apartment but the apartment you have actually applied for. For example, mine was supposed to have a sunroom, and it does not really--it's just open. It make the space look bigger, but not what I expected. Also, mine had carpeting when the model did not (I think that is standard). Overall I've had a decent experience, but nothing to rave about for the price. My main draw was the location.

This complex is great. The amenities are beautiful, and the interior is very well done. Everyone in the front office is great, and the maintenance team is top notch.

The gym is awesome, and maintenance is really fast. Everything is easy and through an app so that’s cool too. There’s free and gated parking so if your friends come visit you they don’t have to pay to park or have to have you validate their parking. It’s 5 minutes away from west 7th and about 7 minutes away from school so convenient for both. Pet friendly as well! Tom Thumb the grocery store is 5 min away as well.

First year living here was great. However there was recently a change in management which has caused some concern for myself and other residents. With renovation underway, parking has gotten worse and there are workers constantly working at inconvenient times (E.g. 7 AM on Sunday). The gates often stop working in the winter and this results in the gates being left open all day and night.

This apartment complex is located super close to everything in downtown Houston - right off of highway 288 and less than 15 minutes to most popular areas of town. However, it has gone through some changes in the recent year. Management has had a big turnover so things like garage doors and elevators get broken for weeks at a time. They recently started renovations so the lobby area should be a lot nicer by Fall 2020, but the units themselves have issues.This may not be an issue in the east/west wing buildings (more condo like units). I personally feel that car safety is pretty good compared to other places nearby, which is a plus. But loud neighbors can really make or break your experience.

Overall I have enjoyed living here.

This is an awesome complex - the buildings are not brand new but are renovated, which means you get good features and lots of space for the same price as a MUCH smaller apartment in a brand new building. It's a gated community and it feels very safe. It is a family-heavy atmosphere - I live near the park in the community and on pleasant evenings, there is a fair bit of noise from kids playing there. Which is something to keep in mind! But ultimately, I prefer the family/very safe vibe to one with no park noise. Neighbors are not at all noisy! Also, it's 5 minutes from the office, which is amazing.

Management is overall pretty good. They respond to work orders very timely. Generally safe. Great commute to all 4 major hospital sites. They accommodate guest parking w passes, which is convenient considering general city parking issues.

Elevators break down often but that's not usually an issue.

Good community and relatively secure.

Great location

Good restaurants in the area. Very easy with dog. Can experience traffic getting to or from downtown during peak times.
