Knightsbridge Apartments

Knightsbridge was my first apartment so it was an exciting experience. I was so impressed with the outside look of the complex. The day I went to walk around the complex to initially check it out, the leasing office was closed. A maintenance worker said he would let me in an apartment to look. (Weird) but anyway, the apartment was beautifully refinished and modern. When I came back to get an actual tour I was so impressed with dawn the woman who helped me, I was back and signing a lease within 2 weeks. Within the first week of living there the kitchen sink neck fell off, the bathroom blinds fell off, and my closet doors fell off track. It looked beautiful, but was put together carelessly. The walls the walls the walls should’ve been made out of paper. You could hear everything. I actually had the neighbors below me call the cops on me, at 8pm on a Friday because I had music on while I was cleaning after work. No joke. Maintenance I promise you was IN my apartment abut 1−2x a week for the year I lived there. It seemed they always had an excuse to come in. I reviewed notice of them coming maybe 25% of the time. Knightsbridge decided to pave the parking lots (which ended up looking great) but during the span of doing so there was NO parking for the remnants. I couldn’t stay at my apartment for 3 nights because of the fact that the closest parking spot was in a shopping center down the street, and it’s not the best area to walk around alone at night. The oven never worked properly, and our power even went out for a few days for no reason. Moving out of that place was one of the best things to happen to me, EVER. don’t let the pretty appearance fool you. «Don’t judge a book by its cover»

All previous posts are accurate. I moved in last February– I loved the updated features. However like everyone else said it looks great but was put together as shabbily as possible. I wish I would have known HOW THIN the walls are. I’m on a downstairs unit and the girl above me works nights. I’ve slept through the night a handful of times in the past year. I have a sound machine and ear plugs yet her stomping in at 4 am still wakes me every night/​morning.
I’ve complained to the office who again like others say are basically useless.
They give you 24 hours notice That they will be entering your apartment multiple times a year. For awhile it was 3 – 4 times a month. I refuse to lock my dogs up while I’m at work so I’ve had to board them or drive them to my parents after getting a note on my door at 6 pm that they’ll be there the next day.
Driving for an hour is exactly what I want to do after working all day.
Maintenance guys are great. Always helpful and friendly. Even helped me out of a snowbank my car was stuck in one morning.
At the end of the day, there are no perks to the complex. They Finally finished the gym a year after they said they would with maybe 5 pieces of equipment and a 7 foot ceiling that’s suffocating.
You’re off an extremely busy highway and the kids basically play in the parking lots.
But beyond all the other negatives about this property I can’t stress enough the thinness of the walls. The girl above me is a heavy walker that strolls in at 4 am every day which does worsen the situation but even when she has guests over I can hear their conversations at a normal inside voices. And when she puts on heels it’s amplified so much by the complete lack of insulation or sound proofing you feel like your head might explode.
Do not move here. Do not think maybe you won’t have someone who walks heavily. They might have kids running, dogs barking, wear heels in the morning, play video games loudly, guests over at night etc and believe me you WILL HEAR IT.

Do not set yourself up for failure by staying with Knights Bridge Apartments. The property manager is a complete moron. Many of the units are renovated, but upon move in you will notice how they were slapped together. The company has no consideration or loyalty for their tenants. My neighbor vehicle was broken into and there’s a few residents that don’t belong at the property. The previous property manager did a better job. The pipes and venting system were not cleaned or changed. Walls are paper thin, so expect to hear even the slightest bit of noise like a toilet flush or low conversation. The parking lot is always full of non residence vehicles. They don’t tow or enforce the parking permits. Knights Road is always busy and its dangerous getting in and out of the complex, especially when it snows. The entrance set up needs to be re done. Do yourself a favor and keep looking! It may look nice, but it’s a disaster.

Both the maintenance and office staff are very professional. Suburb!!! They are kind and cater to every tenant. Maintenance comes out on the very first day you report a problem. We love it here (except for problems listed below). Grounds are kept very nice, clean and well maintained.
Apartments have a nice and spacious layout.
The only reason I gave it a 4 star instead of 5, is our rent was raised the first year (lease renewal) and I hope they do not continue to raise it every year. because if they do, we will probably leave. They do not have some of the amenities other complexes offer for the same price, ie. a club house, pool, or gym.
But the biggest reason we could leave is the soundproofing. There is NONE! I can literally hear my neighbor downstairs snore! I love it here but the soundproofing is horrible, I have neighbors that stay out till 4−5am and come in and make noise with radio, stereo, or TV and it is very annoying. Even though KB has a 10PM to 8:30 am «quiet hours» which they sent out a notify letter to let everyone know, there are still some people here (and that’s anywhere) that abuse. But aside from music and such, normal sounds should not be heard. I live upstairs and I hear my neighbor put his toilet seat up, snore, blow his nose etc. That’s pretty bad.
