We had an unpleasant experience when we visited the Highmont in Kitchener We arrived 10 minutes before the appointment however there was no front desk to be found After knocking on a basement window to seek entrance a tenant informed us that we would most likely be speaking with Chris who may have been asleep We proceeded through the filthy stairwell up to the top level and knocked on the door several times without success all our attempts to contact Chris and the listing company from Highmont had failed as well Finally we met him he seemed like he just woke up and was not dressed appropriately for his job nor was he respectful towards us He asked us to wait in the parking lot for him so that he could show us around this came after being told by another tenant that Chris does not usually respond to anyone at all let alone open his door Despite this misstep we entered into a familys home where children were present while Chris took us through each room including one with sleeping babies and toddlers on it This entire experience left our group feeling disgusted and appalled do not trust anything you see online photos simply do not do justice here at Highmont Belmont Street Kitchener Its no wonder why their two bedroom apartments are so cheapnobody should have to live in such conditions more ... hide ...

The apartment is clean and wellmaintained with no bug issues However there are a few things to be aware of 1 Onboarding took too long and documents had to be sent multiple times 2 The hydrogaswater bills are high in winter it can reach up to 300380 and during summer 250280 even without using a dishwasher 3 The gym is very small for the whole building only enough for 24 people at one time 4 There are many rules about what can and cannot be done here 5 They dictate what can be kept in the balcony that you pay for but this wont be told when signing the agreement anything not furniture is considered a fire hazard 6 In wintertime the parking lot was not cleared properly with snow stored in paid spots so we often had to park in visitors parking 7 Visitors parking is only paid parking which is also seen in other apartments managed by this company 8 They try to present themselves as modern upscale apartments but really its like any other new apartment rent increases substantially along with parking costs and hydro bills being upscale too 9 Delivery packages have been stolen from or damaged due to poor parcel room planning before they added locks later on 10 Storage room was unavailable due to lack of storage cages for the whole apartment so winter tires had to go elsewhere not allowed on balconies 11 Lastly the building manager more ... hide ...

My mom and I live here which serves as a home base for our nomadic lifestyle Although the 2star rating is appropriate given the rent its still nicer than most apartments Ive seen that cost half as much For the price we pay and being in Saskatoon instead of large cities like Toronto or Vancouver better quality should be expected Pros include management being 2022-09-24T23:32:17Z
My mom and I live here which serves as a home base for our nomadic lifestyle Although the 2star rating is appropriate given the rent its still nicer than most apartments Ive seen that cost half as much For the price we pay and being in Saskatoon instead of large cities like Toronto or Vancouver better quality should be expected Pros include management being kind and friendly plus organizing social events however there are cons such as them not wanting to change our locks when my keys were stolen and refusing to fix broken kitchen drawer slides The walls are thin so sound easily passes through aluminum windows let in drafts of cold air during winter rent is high considering the age of apartment is old with cabinets falling apart while cold water in summer can only be achieved by running it for multiple minutes at a time due to rusty water coming from tub faucet each morning The AC unit is loud yet barely keeps us cool if we keep it on 247 turning it off makes us start roasting within an hour since turning on requires approval from head office in Toronto first Lastly balcony railings are solid concrete blocking view of river despite paying extra for that amenity unless standing right by window more ... hide ...
