Resident Reviews

Feedback from residents have been mixed. There have been some that say that they absolutely love it, while many others list issues that they have had. Some noteworthy issues mentioned are:

• Jan 2023 – “They are “pet friendly” but they aren’t friendly about it at all. If your dog doesn’t pee and poop on ROCKS right outside the opening of the building, you have to pay between $75-$200! Those rocks smell DISGUSTING in the summer and look disgusting in the winter.”
• Oct 2021 – “All heat in this complex is done with radiators, which is extremely expensive to run ($150+ electric bill per month to keep halfway warm in a place that has winter weather 8 months out of the year). They also installed the radiators on the ceiling. Heat rises, meaning you pay 2-3 times as much trying to heat your apartment as the heat ends up going to your upstairs neighbors. You either get cold winters, or expensive ones, pick your poison. There is also no air conditioning in any of the basement apartments“
• Oct 2021 – “Both bedrooms are awkward and smaller than anticipated. We had our bed in each room at some point in our tenure, and we still struggled with finding space, not to mention the embarrassing lack of storage for miscellaneous items”
• Dec 2019 – “Firstly, like other reviews stated. Our basement apt flooded. Took a good couple of weeks to get that fixed. Our dishwasher was also not properly installed and fell forwards when you’d open it.”

The apartments have a really clean look, but be aware of the issues that have been brought up. These issues are a few years old and may have been corrected since then. I found that when I went and toured these apartments that our tour guide was open and honest with what issues you could face when asked. These reviews were found on apartmentfinder.com and yelp.

Final Thoughts

Providence Square Apartments offers a blend of modern amenities, pet-friendly policies, and a convenient location. Although they do have many more amenities than other complexes the number of negative reviews needs to be considered. My recommendation is that if you are considering this complex then you should take a tour, talk with the guide, and see it for yourself.
