It may look like a lovely building from the outside, but living here for a few months, you'll discover how truly flawed it is... 1. The apartment itself has cheap finishes that try to make it look upscale. The cabinets are wrapped in a wall paper material and are bubbled/warped. The floors aren't real wood, instead they're peel and stick. When I moved into my apartment, there were many mistakes in the paint job on the walls. 2. Page constantly sends out emails for apartment inspections but there is always something wrong with the building itself. Management should make sure all their things are in order before they inspect the apartments. Not to mention, it is annoying to constantly have strangers in your apartment with little to no notice! They will just use the door code and help themselves into your apartment. 3. The garage door has been broken for over a year with no update on when it will be fixed. The vendors have "fixed" it many times, only for it to be broken again the next day. You will still have to pay full price for monthly parking at a steep $140 a month though, trust! 4. The main lobby's security alarm has been breached for MONTHS so when you enter the building you are met with a deafening beeping noise. Why hasn't this been fixed?? 5. The cleaning ladies are AMAZING and deserve 5 stars for what they have to put up with. They do an excellent job cleaning and need a raise. 6. An elevator is always out of order and it takes days to weeks for a vendor to come out and fix it. This is annoying when you have bags of groceries and have to take the stairs. 7. The pool is advertised as "heated," but it's basically lukewarm and impossible to enjoy during the winter months. 8. The gym is way too small for the amount of people in the building. The equipment is sparse. It's always crowded so you will have to buy a gym membership elsewhere. 9. Page advertised the apartment to me by selling me on a liquor store on the bottom floor and a Mexican restaurant a few steps away. Guess what, they both closed down because they were way too overpriced/lousy. Now this area is a ghost town and stone throw away from dangerous Colfax. 10. The rent prices are astronomical and increase an exorbitant amount each year despite the building deteriorating by the day. It's thievery and it all goes to management who do nothing but sit down on their phones all day. 11. People use their balconies/porches as storage units and places for their dogs to poop. You'll see everything from Christmas tree boxes, dirty mops, tires, and bicycles. This is an eyesore when you have visitors or just want to enjoy the views! All in all, the rent here is way too expensive for the quality of living you'll get. I would recommend looking outside the Anschutz bubble for more reasonably priced apartments with better surroundings and management. Or better yet, rent a home for the same price or less!
