The One at University City

The internet is spotty. Electricity is not included in the price of utilities. It's a tiny studio for the price I pay. People let their dogs pee and poop in elevators and hallways and no one picks it up. Everything is dirty or smells like a dirty gymsock. Parking is an extra $120/mo., but people break into the garage (that has virtually no security) and steal parts off the car. The water has been tested and residents have found lead in it. Management is not responsive. It's run by kids who don't know what they're doing and you will never speak to an actual manager. If you get locked out of your room (because the keys are like hotel key cards), security doesn't help. The building takes advantage of the situation to charge you $50. People sneak in all the time. Packages go missing.

The staff at the building are okay. The reason I gave it such a low score is because of the noise. The walls are very thin and if your neighbor decides to play music… you’ll be listening to it as well. The internet is extremely spotty and slow.

The inside of the apartment was clean and well maintained. I was the second resident to live in this unit. The common areas could use improvement with trash collection and pet waste. The noise is minimal from residents, but there is continuous noise from the surrounding construction sites (whistles and beeping). The pool is monitored by security and there are heavy restrictions for noise and gatherings, ie no pool parties. The package delivery has improved, but there is still a lag time during peak hours. If you are directly near the gym, there is pounding from weights but not unbearable. For the price and location, I recommend.

They are severely understaffed, it takes 48 hours to pick up mail packages after they were delivered, there is trash everywhere, the carpets in the hallways are unclean and unsanitary.

Very convenient because it is one block from campus. It is a brand new updated building.

For people whose family’s don’t live in Miami or close enough to commute, there are basically no options for housing around FIU. Therefore, I was forced to choose to live at the One because it was one of two options I had. It is overpriced, and the walls are so thin it sounds like the people next to you are in the same room as you. The studios are as big as shoeboxes. Everyone is loud and the halls and elevators are dirty. It’s not an ideal place to live but basically FIU students’ only option to live close to school and not pay Brickell prices.

Overpriced, and with low quality internet. Dirty

visible mold growing on personal property and apartment property. Took a month for the apartment to take action, and did not allow transfer till a different unit until parents got involved.

The management is horrendous. The maintenance department refuse to fix critical issues within the unit. I had no ac for 3 days and it took several emails and phone calls to their parent company for my complaint to be addressed.

Very good, nice amenities and did not had any trouble.
