So Tria looked like a great place. It was so shiny and new and clean and nice! But after living here for 18 months I canât wait to move out. I have never ever felt compelled to write a review for an apartment, but this one has just pushed me over the edge.
Starting with the positives, everything inside the apartment is new and clean. Nothing has broken on me and the newer appliances are very nice. Also the staff is usually very friendly. Although there seems to be high turn around on staff members and sometimes they donât take care of requests even after being asked multiple times. So I guess weâre in the negative section now:
Firstly, thereâs never any maintenance on weekends so usually itâs gets pretty gross by Monday morning. The trash chute has backed up all the way to the sixth floor so people just leave the bags in the chute room.
Next, the parking is atrocious. I donât think they built enough spots for the people who live here and they only have three visitors spots for the whole building.
Most egregiously, the noise level. I havenât had a good nights sleep since I moved here. The walls and ceilings are pretty thin as with many places in the area, but what really tips it over are the rude, loud, inconsiderate neighbors. I have one neighbor who blasts music all day and into the night, so loud it vibrates my kitchen. Another above me, stomps around and moves furniture almost nightly. I have complained about both to the office but nothing happens. I feel like Iâm paying almost $2000 a month to live in a dorm building. Iâve also made a few friends here and they too have experienced loud neighbors on their sides of the building. One even had to call the cops to stop her neighbors from blasting music at 3 am.
The maintenance guys also apparently donât know how to work the timer on the trash compactor. As I write this, the trash compactor has been running and banging and grinding for three days and nights non stop. Previously, it was set to run at 4 am every morning. I have over a months worth of emails between the office and myself complaining about this problem. Itâs still happening. Again, I havenât had a good nights sleep in months. Iâve resorted to using earplugs, but even then if my neighbors move furniture or the compactor gets a big bump itâs loud enough that I still hear it. All night. Part of this can be avoided if you donât rent an apartment near the trash chute room, which I did because I thought that was convenient, but oh god was I wrong. Although no matter where in the building you are, the loud neighbors and no action from the staff is still gonna happen anyway.
So if you wanna take a gamble on Tria, good luck. Itâs a nice area, but if you like to sleep more than three hours a night, go somewhere else.
