CWS Apartment Homes, LLC

This apartment complex is pricey but the management and maintenance are friendly, responsive, and transparent with issues/updates.

Great location in Uptown. Can be a hassle getting to campus sometimes depending on traffic, times can vary from 10-30 minutes depending on how backed up 75 is. Great food and bars within walking distance.

You're paying a premium price for the location & community: 10-15 minute walk to the law school as well as a free public bus route that picks up/drops off right at the end of the block and right across the road from the law school. Ultra-convenient. And a huge portion of your class will live in the same apartment (or one of the other two neighboring complexes). Maintenance isn't great, my floor's hallway perpetually smells like garbage. Gym has pretty much everything needed even for semi-serious weightlifting.

My apartment is really nice (high ceilings!) and very quiet! The kitchen is especially nice. I really like having a gym. Location is great - less than a 15-minute walk to the law school. Only downside is that it’s expensive, but it’s probably worth it.

Marq Uptown is in a great location that is convenient to walk to school. Management is extremely helpful and responsive. Service requests are completed very quickly, sometimes on the same day as submission. The complex is quiet and easy to study in. The amenities are well maintained.

Great Place for a law student to live

Perfect for Law Students

The Marq is convenient and the rooms are generally quite nice. However, some rooms have issues with bugs and sometimes the hallways/trash rooms can get pretty dirty. Management isn't very responsive to either of those issues. There are a lot of break ins in the garage.

I very much enjoy the location as it is in downtown, about a 30 min. walk/6 min. drive from the bars off of W. 7th, a 10 min. drive from the Stockyards, and it is close to the trails by the river as well as a local basketball court there. Additionally, I really like that the complex has a basketball court and a gym that has a bench press, deadlift area, squat machine, multipurpose station, and isolation machines in addition to other free weights and cardio machines. I also really like the pool setup.

The main aspect that I like the least is the price.

The neighborhood is safe.

There is a new manager and management is now very responsive.

Firestone is a fine apartment but it isn’t the luxury housing that it advertises. It’s a great location with great floor plans. It just doesn’t seem likely that management will get its act together to have this place live up to its potential.

Firestone looks like a great property from the outside, but in reality, it is falling apart and has tons of problems. The company that owns and manages Firestone does not care about residents or their concerns. Work orders have not been completed in a timely manner and there are always new problems occurring with my unit and across the property. There is constantly trash everywhere and many fire codes being broken. I would not recommend anyone live here. I have had many problems with the office staff and property in general. Trying to manage these problems and law school has been a huge burden. I thought paying so much would eliminate these problems, but it has not, now I am just unhappy with the service of the property and quality and I am overpaying.

Great apartment complex. Older style, but still nicely maintained.
Just close enough that you're still really close to school, bar and restaurants, but for enough away that the community is quiet.
Apartment is right on the Trinity Trail System, so no need to drive anywhere to go for nice walks.
Great dog park with really friendly neighbors.

Amenities are decent, maintenance is very helpful. Management is not great!

The location is great because it is only a 5 minute drive to the law school. There is an onsite gym which is on the nicer end for apartment gyms that has weights, cardio equipment and a basketball half court. There is a pool. The buildings are older construction though and I have had a couple minor issues (a leak and the A/C went out).
One of the gates is always broken and open though so anybody can walk into the property.

Could be cheaper
