I am currently living here and love the location because it is extremely close to two grocery stores, gym, and bus stations that go to both metro stops. The layout of the apartment is awesome, but there are some major issues. First, I was promised that I would hear minimum sound from the people who live above; mostly soft sound of footsteps. I was lied to and literally ever step they take is echoed through the apartment to the point that a couple of times, pictures on my walls have tilted from the vibration of the foot steps. Whenever they use the shower, it is so loud that it sounds like someone is showering in my bathroom. It was even loud enough to wake my partial deaf father when he visited last weekend at 12 am in the morning. There is a roach and mice issue here. Even as I am typing this, I can hear a mouse in the kitchen moving around. I have approached FoxChase about this 4 different times and their solution is to lay more mouse traps which obviously is not working. The one time an exterminator was brought to the apartment, I was told by the exterminator with a member of the maintenance crew present that he needed to come 3 times a week until the issue was solved. When I tried to schedule with him the times, I was told that the Maintenance Office would contact me. I have received no phone calls or emails to this date and placed my 4th request right before writing this review. Yes, this place is one of the cheapest apartments in the area and has a great location, but please evaluate what you are willing to trade off before signing a lease with the apartment complex. If you are willing to deal with heavy footsteps or showers that wake you up at 4 am everyday and roaches running over you feet while you sit at the computer(that was how I found out about the roach issue) for the location, then by all means this place is great. However, for me and I assume many others, this is not the case and I will not be renewing my lease.
