Now that I finally got my security deposit back, after 40 days and having to call and email for it, I’m here to tell you all the things wrong with this place! I lived here for 3 years in 2 different apartments in this complex mostly because it’s spacious and convenient. However both of my apartments (top and bottom floor) flooded. On the bottom floor, I told them there was a crack in the foundation, their “fix” was to dry the carpet with loud fans all night and duck tape a tarp to the side of the building. Water came up from the floor every time it rained hard. There was mold all over my closet and shoes, I threw out many pairs of shoes that were on the floor. I had to stay in a hotel twice while living here, once because of the flooding and once for sewage backing up into the bathtubs.
After the whole flooding issues I kept having on the bottom floor, I decided to move to another apartment on the top floor. Then guess what? Water flooded from the ceiling when it rained! When they came to fix it, the cut a hole in my ceiling and left it there for over a week until the roofers came. Anytime I called to check and see when they were coming to fix it, the leasing office woman had no idea what was going on and was acted super rude and annoyed anytime I called. They “fixed” it, then a few weeks later, it happened again!
On top of the flooding issues, let’s talk about the ROACHES. This place is roach central. They are EVERYWHERE. Never seen so many in my life. Outside and inside.
These buildings are old and not super well kept. My floor was sinking in. The only reason they’re “updating” apartments is because half the complex flooded during tropical storm Chantal. I hope they finally fixed the foundation cracks while they ripped the place apart. Oh and if your neighbors smoke weed or cook smelly foods, you can smell it inside your apartment too! They say it’s non-smoking and you have to put your trash inside but nobody ever does anything about it, so there’s always your neighbors trash out in the breezeway attracting those roaches.
They “forgot to charge for cold water” one time for months, and then sent us a huge bill for water one month. I don’t know how cold and hot water are charged differently, makes no sense at all. Should not have been our responsibility for their mess up.
This place charges too much for the quality you get. They put lipstick on a pig.
Good luck to everyone that moves here, and the new management because this is the 3rd management change in

Not worth the new price
I have lived in Chapel Hill apartments for 8 years, so I have a pretty good gauge of relative quality and value in the area. We have lived at Midtown for 3 of those years because the rate was competitive. However, they just raised rent by $250/month and now the monthly dues are comparable to much higher quality apartments nearby. Keep in mind they have a required amenity package on top of the rent price. Issues with paying this increased rate include: dysfunctional HVAC system, warped floors, cracked walls, careless paint job, harsh apartment lighting, a pool that is randomly "out of service" for weeks at a time, and unkempt gym with constant broken equipment. I have never had a problem with maintenance when things break which is why I did not give one star.

Disgusting
We had a friend live here a number of years ago and thought it would be a good location for our next apartment. Needless to say, the complex has gone downhill. Our apartment was disgusting upon move-in. Our HVAC is clearly spewing dust and/or mold throughout our unit. You can see this dust caked on the wall around the vents. All of our walls are patched without a new paint job. Our floors are clearly warped from some previous water damage. Our unit is in Melanie Ct., located near the trash compactor. Not only does the area smell horrid, but it's constantly covered in trash. In terms of amenities, the pool has been closed for the last several years, they force you to pay for valet trash service and Spectrum cable (which we didn't want or need). Maintenance has been okay, but overall, we were surprised at how little care was taken of our unit before we even moved in.

First Floor
Do not live on the first floor here if you ever expect to enjoy peace and quiet without feeling like your upstairs neighbors are about to come through the ceiling. I am woken up at 5-6 AM and kept up well past midnight because of this. Will not be living here again for peace of mind.

Excellent Apartment Community
I have nothing but positive things to say about this community. That is why I renewed my lease for another year. The community is bright, spacious, with plenty of greenery and sensible landscaping to beautify and shield from the bright NC sun in the summer. The units are spacious with an intelligent floor plan (sure a little more closet space would be welcome but...). The kitchen is upgraded nicely with granite and stainless, contemporary cabinetry (and surprisingly plenty of it for the space). The location is simply phenomenal--near to I-40, a host of shopping centers and a variety of restaurants. They have a huge pool and poolside space with tons of TVs. There's a nice fire pit for warming up in the evenings. The recreation center is unsurpassed--huge game room, exercise center, internet cafe. I honestly have no complaints about the community. I am astonished to read the negative reviews citing issues with bugs or mold or other such complaints. NONE of these apply to my experience here. Any little issue from stiff door knobs to leaky faucets to a glitchy light switch was addressed fully and promptly. The property management company here and their staff are excellent and responsive and most important...friendly and pleasant. I can't tell you how many times I have dealt with people lacking interpersonal skills managing the apartment communities where I resided in the past. I simply enjoy my morning coffee on the deck of my unit just listening to the birds or feeling the breeze (sometimes carrying the scent of fresh flowers). I can walk to Trader Joes or Food Lion or Whole Foods from my place and yet it's amazingly quiet. The complimentary Starbucks coffee at the office is a nice plus. I have to say, my wife, myself and my high schooler are quite happy here.
