Aris Market Square

CONS: * The noise here is completely unbearable. You effectively won't be able to sleep from Thursday through Sunday. Fabians Latin flavors especially is extremely loud on the weekends, as well as SoHo Garden. You won't notice this during a day tour but by the time you sign and spend your first night in your apartment and figure out what you've gotten yourself locked into its too late. Ear plugs do nothing. White noise machines do nothing. *I repeat, the clubs go until 2 AM on Sunday. * Alot of homeless, if you haven't been downtown before you might not realize how bad the homeless problem has gotten, it's obviously not the apartment complexes fault, the security they have keeps them out of the building for the most part, but I've seen people getting spit on walking out of their apartment. PRO: * The concierge and valet are pretty great. Some cool dudes. Overall a great building, that's run well enough ruined by its location. If you're an extremely deep sleeper, it might work out. If your apartment faces travis street, it might work out, but it's honestly not worth the risk IMO, once you sign the lease you're stuck and alot of the people who can pay these rents are professionals that can't afford to have their sleep ruined.

After living here a little over 2 years and now renewing for our third year, I wanted to give an updated review! Aris is a great building to live, it has always felt extremely safe. The concierge takes excellent care of the residents. I have to especially shout out Rolthe. Since day one he has treated us like family and knew our names and apartment number immediately and does whatever he can to make sure we are happy and comfortable. The maintenance team is also amazing and friendly, anytime we put in a work order it is completed immediately. I also have to give a shoutout to Mahi. She has been here since day one and is always happy to assist us in any way. As mentioned above, the building is secure and residents are only able to go on the floor they live on with the key fob so it is always quiet and secure. We love our apartment, and the bathroom, closet space, and square footage cannot be beat at any other high rise in Houston. It can be loud outside of the building because it is in the heart of downtown, but it’s great to be in walking distance to so many places. I would highly recommend this building to anyone I know and if you are into the hustle and bustle of the downtown life- this is the perfect place for you!

I’ve been living at Aris for over three years, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. As someone who grew up in Houston, downtown living wasn’t something I ever pictured for myself—but now I can’t imagine being anywhere else. The building is beautiful, the location is unbeatable, and the convenience of being close to work, Houston’s nightlife, and Astros games makes everyday living easier and more fun. The entire staff is friendly and helpful, and they’ve really created a sense of community here. A big part of that experience has been Marlene & Richard, our concierge. They have been a constant presence throughout my time here, always welcoming and thoughtful. Richard also somehow knows all my guests by name, keeps me on track with package reminders, and greets me with a smile every single day. It’s the kind of care that makes a building feel like home. Grateful to have him and Marlene here.

The amenities are great; the pool is amazing, the gym has everything I need. The maintenance team is super responsive, and having valet service is extremely convenient. The staff are also great. I see Richard every morning at the front desk and he always greets me and my dog and he’s always super helpful anytime I need anything. Overall, I would recommend living at Aris.

Amazing place to live! The concierge staff are amazing. It’s very central to downtown and the underground with lots of things happening every day at the nearby parks and The Post. The facility is kept very tidy. Lots of pets in this building and I’ve never seen any pee or poop anywhere in the building. 10/10 would live here
