Ive lived at 2861 baycrest for a year and the pool was never opened despite being promised when I moved in it was one of the main reasons I chose this place The toilet didnt work properly in the first week either so thank goodness I still had my other apartment It took many weeks to get it fixed as it kept breaking after a few days The water never got hot until my last month there and now it doesnt even get cold on the warm setting its too hot to put your hands under The parking is chaotic with people being assigned to my spot because they have no organization thus meaning I have to find somewhere else if the office is closed Garage doors are left open all the time which defeats their purpose for security purposes Furthermore elevators are always malfunctioning and can take up to 10 minutes just to arrive once all three broke down at once Getting hold of the main office is almost impossible as they close during weird hours and don't respond to voicemails even if you do manage to call them they usually cant help with anything In addition using cards to pay for laundry machines often doesnt work as they often break down for days at a time not only that but driers don't function either so you must dry two loads together Washers smell like theyve never been cleaned while bugs scuttle around your clothes Don't be deceived by shiny more ... hide ...

My friend and I have been living here for almost ten years so we experienced the change in ownership when CLV bought the property from Andrews Brothers which resulted in a Renoviction campaign that caused many people to move away due to noise and rent increases We moved into our twobedroom corner unit paying less than 1000 with utilities included The heating was subpar paint job old fashioned cabinets falling apart carpet ancient and appliances outdated all of which were tolerable with that price Nowadays though Management refuses to replace anything that isn't on fire Chad the building manager refused to replace the carpet since we have cats although it was old when we moved in Our stovetop has two burners that only work on its highest setting and kitchen drawers have been deteriorating for two years but my gluing skills are better than those of maintenance team So if you intend to move here youll be alright The only ones they neglect are those who couldnt withstand their pointless renovations or expensive rents However one thing remains unchanged the laundry room still sucks regardless of how much money you pay more ... hide ...

I subleased this apartment for five months during the summer The building was decent my onebedroom was a reasonable size and the lobbies were kept clean Two elevators were available however one had been out of service for three months before it got fixed I had few issues with my apartment there wasnt much noise from neighbors and the staff onsite had generally been pleasant My grievance is with the management company itself They sent me an eviction notice after they took my rent money and I needed to contact the coordinator multiple times until they found my missing checks that they had already cashed Rent was rarely paid on time usually not until after the first of each month The people you seedeal with regularly are often nice but their administrativemanagement side is disorganized more ... hide ...

Its essential to stay away from this apartment complex The services provided here are terrible since we moved in weve had many issues and only a few have been settled after multiple complaints On December 25th the heat had been out for two weeks due to maintenance problems that may take weeks more to be fixed as the management has no clue when it will be taken care of We have felt cold and have lacked heat and hot water for days which has caused us colds Moreover the elevator hasnt functioned for three days already with no updates or messages from the administration office regarding these issues It seems as if one person is dealing with all of the buildings problems they seem nice but are likely overwhelmed by all thats going on We also contacted Cogir yet havent heard back from them yet Heat is an absolute necessity at this time of year so not taking care of it quickly is just foolish If youre searching for an apartment in Ottawa keep looking youll most likely find a better place either at same price or even lower than here avoid this place at all costs more ... hide ...

I lived with my ex for two years in 2017 and 2018 During that time the building had three sets of married superintendents followed by a single woman and her manager Howard The elevator often broke down and hot water got shut off frequently In the first summer we didnt have to pay an air conditioning fee but then the new managers tried to make us get one we refused For five months our balcony barrier was broken and our neighbors trespassed onto our side of it Also there wasnt a lock on our balcony door so it was unsafe A part had to be ordered from somewhere which took forever An employee came in drunk one day and destroyed an elevator control panel some vacant units he worked on before he got fired after having a mental breakdown at 4am on our floor he also went into our unit once when nothing was missing yetwe complained about this but were told its impossible From then on we wouldnt let anyone inside unless we were present The female superintendent was always rude so I approached Howard instead when I wanted something done When I left my ex due to domestic violence issues Howard assisted me in getting out of my lease quickly so I could move away from him ASAP Overall rent was good apartments are large bright herehopefully they have better management now as Caldwell is close by its peaceful nice here with an offleash dog park nearby plus WalmartLoblaws more ... hide ...

Do NOT rent from this place I moved here in 2019 and was immediately subjected to harassment by a neighbor yet my complaints to the landlord were ignored This week I have been without hot water unannounced and the temperature in my apartment is 167 degrees Celsius which is below the legal limit of 20 degrees for landlords to provide during 600am11pm In addition there are drug deals occurring on the main floor with people constantly coming and going through a propped open back door or window without its screen The leasing office responds occasionally since thats where money comes from however voicemails are not returned for other matters such as heat at 167 degrees which should be at 20 according to Ottawa regulations Contacting anyone else has proven fruitless thus far I have received no call backs after leaving three voicemails this week about heat alone it has been almost a week now Even calling the emergency line yesterday resulted in no change or response whatsoever Similarly calling them tonight didnt reach anyone higher up such as a manager who could hear complaints either instead it just connected me back to the emergency line again Its appalling considering Im writing this bundled up in multiple blankets due to cold weather while I shouldnt have had pay hydro bills just so that my apartment can be heated Therefore DO NOT rent from here nor any Hazelview properties previously Timbercreek Considering all that has happened with harassing neighbors and poor customer service by more ... hide ...

My spouse and I had the great fortune of only recently moving into The Richlin which I could not be more pleased with for my first apartment One of my friends who had lived there previously suggested it to me The building is spotless and wellmaintained and all the personnel have been very friendly both office staff and maintenance personnel are incredibly helpful and kind Our queries have always been attended to quickly plus any minor repair requests weve made were taken care of that same day As far as rent goes rates here are definitely reasonable when judged against those in neighboring buildings moreover our place is a lot bigger than some others we checked out before deciding on this one Theres also a sizable laundry room in addition to a gymnasium and swimming pool but what really puts it over the top for us is how peaceful it is here in four months living at Richlin Apartments we havent heard ONE peep from our neighbors We therefore highly recommend this place more ... hide ...
