The Arlie

If you were looking for your sign not❌ to live here this is the one. Management is unresponsive, if you want to try to talk to them in person about an issue good luck with that hahha! The CAs tell you the manager Emmanuel is out of his office and that the assistant manager is at another property across the street and upon going it ends up they aren’t at either property and no one can help you 😂. Management doesn’t care about fines posted to your account all they want to do is find ways to charge you money, especially after you move out they will charge $25 a bag for trash and $250 for paint fees if your walls have even a scratch on them so good luck if you plan on living here. And corporate isn’t any better, tried reaching out to them too about issues management wouldn’t solve here and they just told me there is nothing they could do either. So there you have it, “where students love living” 😂😂 what a joke

Even if you are behind on your rent, refuse to give your roommate fridge and freezer space, receive 10+ complaints from your roommate to management, have friends over that steal from your roommate, and you cause a fly and roach infestation because you refuse to clean up after yourself, management will still let you stay and will ask the good roommate to transfer to another unit. Ask me how I know.

Here's an actual review of someone who's lived here instead of someone just touring the apartments. I was going to give it a decent review, but now that i moved out I cant. The only reason for the 2 star is because the maintenace team is amazing, thats all i can say. They charged me for things out of my control after moving out. I lived in a shared unit and only I moved out. They are only charging me, not my roommate, for something that isnt broken, and thats also supposed to have the cost split among roommates. They will try extracting money in any way they can, NO EXCEPTIONS. For context, this is in a 2B2B shared unit. Pros: Really good maintenance, quicker than UTA Housing. Most requests are taken care of within a reasonable amount of time; the next day or a week and a few days if it's a pest issue like ants crawling inside the walls from the outside. Management is helpful if you go talk to them in the office instead of email. Occasionally, we've had our upstairs neighbors drop glass bottles and trash on our balcony, which management took care of pretty quickly. Management also took care of and even followed up when I told them that the key scanner would fail to let you inside the building on some doors. Cons: A lot of "have you renewed?" or "are you going to renew?" You get constant emails, occasional calls on your phone, and even knocks on your door asking to renew. I wouldn't have had a problem if they didn't constantly ask after I told them no. They knocked on our doors in the beginning of October, a month and a half after moving in, and asked if we wanted to renew. That's way too early... UTA hadn't even opened their own housing application. Around December, the property director emailed everyone and was like, "Rates are gonna increase soon, if you renew right now your rate will be $ next year," which was what made my roommates renew. I didn't because I found it scummy. In fact, rates might have temporarily increased for the next 2 months, but because of an increase in housing supply due to Maverick Hall, rates have dropped a lot everywhere. My roommates renewed for $70 less than our current monthly rate, but I could've renewed for $150 less than our current rate. Parking garage gates occasionally break down, and it takes at minimum more than 1 week to fix. The apartment unit itself is your standard American cardboard home. Thin walls, little insulation, and lack of proper ventilation. Because there is a lack of proper ventilation, the bedroom is always considerably colder or warmer than the living room and kitchen area where the thermostat is. Also, because of no proper ventilation, fresh fruit, in our experience has gotten moldly in 2 days. Online Payment Processor fee. I hate online payment fees. You will pay a fee of anywhere from $1 to $20 depending on how you pay online on top of Rent, Electricity, and Insurance. Overall The Arlie is probably the best option for offcampus apartments, and thats a pretty low bar, since other apartments lack proper maintenance or management that cares. I would suggest getting your own insurance, since it can be cheaper than the $13 you would pay the arlie and you will have less to deal with if anything was to happen.
