Helios Apartments

My family and I moved to Helios 6 months ago from another apartment complex in DTC. We fell in love with it the second we toured. The leasing staff were more than happy to show us as many units as we wanted and were very patient with my indecisiveness. It was almost as though they knew what would work for our family better than we did! As the parents of a 1 year old baby boy and a very active 2 year old puppy, it was important that we found a family friendly, yet quiet and safe property. The on-​site dog run makes being a dog owner in a apartment so convenient and the parking garage with assigned spots on each level really has changed our quality of living! It’s not easy lugging a child and groceries up stairs after having to search for a parking spot, which is what we have had to do in every previous apartment. Lastly, the building/​parking garage are secure and only residents are able to access entry which allows us to rest easy knowing we are all safe. When anyone has come to visit, they are in awe of how gorgeous and open our apartment is. That however, you will just have to see for your self because I won’t be able to do it justice. We also love being in walking distance to tons of restaurants/​bars that are perfect for a family dinner or date night. Though I could go on, I just encourage you to come check it out for yourself. I’m confident they can accommodate anyone and make them as happy as we are.

First I would like to say I did reach out to the manager to address a couple of my suggestions but have not heard back. If I do hear back I may update my review.
I have been here six months and so far know more about my upstairs neighbors lifestyle than I care to. There is no space or insulation it seems between the floors. I can hear my upstairs neighbor sneeze or flush the toilet, and obviously tap dance and their circus elephant training.
I wish that was my only complaint about this place. I was told when I moved in they would secure the east side 4^th floor door that leads in from the parking lot. PS it still isn’t secure you can just walk right on in without scanning your key fob. Secondly the door to the service elevator slams very loudly half shut, not all the way shut like fully into the door jam because that would be ridiculous!
Also, if you enjoy outdoors or pools in the summer spring fall or winter, good news! It’s open all year around! What they don’t tell you when you’re viewing the place is that it’s always around the temperature of ice water. They said its heated but they don’t actually heat the pool to a comfortable temperature, just right above freezing temps. I have never seen a single resident in the pool and there is no hot tub. If this matters to you I can name several apartment complexes in less than a half mile radius with year around HEATED pools and hot tubs on site.
Last complaint, there is no hot water at any time of day. At most it’s warm! See the theme here about hot water… If you’re showering, there is no water pressure. You have to stand directly on the tub drain and only half of your body can be wet at one time and the pressure is very very low. They claim they put new water pumps into the building to fix this but it didn’t do anything at all.
I do have a couple things I do like about my residence. For one the office staff is very polite and friendly and helpful when picking up your packages! And the apartments are aesthetically nice.

The apartments are beautiful and the staff is friendly! Great location and fun resident events too!

Good location and the office staff are like family.
As far as neighbors go I have only met good people and made a few friends. I like it here.
The common area is nice with plenty of flat screens and is a nice to have for parties etc., Super Bowl and football season was a lot more fun because of this.
The workout area is a bonus, new and free is always good.

I am pretty satisfied with the apartment building, the location itself is great. Any type of business, restaurant, and stores you would need are very close. When it comes the apartments them selves they are brand new and very nice from the inside. We have amazing amenity’s from 24 hour gym as well as a 24 hour club house.
There is assigned parking spaces on each leave, even for visitors. The visitor parking may not always be the easiest, but defiantly not impossible. The noise is minimal, it is what comes with living in an apartment building, you will most likely hear you neighbors.
When it comes to the staff I have no complaints, since day one they have all been very helpful and go above and beyond to make the resednets happy.

I absolutely love this apartment building. I’ve lived in a nearby home in Greenwood Village for 20 years then subsequently moved into another local apartment community for the local schools.
I recently moved to Helios and have been incredibly impressed with the aesthetics of actual unit which is exceptionally quiet as well as beautiful. Other communities in the area do not have nearly the construction and thereby are unable to filter noise between. I’ve not heard a pin drop… the maintenance responsiveness is super expedient and the office staff could not be more accommodating and pleasant. My process from move in and live in has been seamless and I could easily reside here for years…

I live in this apartment, walls are paper thin. Even when you walk your neighbors complain about it. You cannot watch TV or walk in your own house…

I’m surprised anyone has anything good to say about these apartments.
My brother lives here and every time I go to visit it gets worse.
First off, if you’re a guest it’s almost impossible to find parking. They have about two spots in the front.
Then once you are there past office hours the main front door has no call pad, you have to go to the side of the building.
It doesn’t stop there, once you’re inside this place is built like a maze. Impossible to find your way around.
Now the WORST part.
These apartments were built paper thin. We can constantly hear noise from the upstairs apartment EVERY time I am over there.
My brother has complained but apparently a part of the staff lives above them so it’s ok, psh.
Another time I was over there at about 7pm and we were playing some music, VERY softly mind you because this was a weekday. We then hear a knock at the door and its security telling my brother they got a complaint and to turn it down…
Ridiculous.
The company who built this place is known to build thin walled apartments, very cheaply.
Don’t waste your time and move into these overpriced apartments

The building is gorgeous, the staff is so incredibly friendly and courteous, and overall I’m in love with my apartment here. I’ve only been here 3 months, but so far things have been great. There’s a lot of construction going on, which is a bit invasive (there’s always something being repaired, so you’ll get to know your way around the building by finding other ways to get where you need to go), but that leads to the building being in good repair. I love that my packages are accepted downstairs in the lobby while I’m away at work, and when I get home they’re waiting for me with the friendly staff.
The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the construction. If you’re thinking of moving here and can afford to wait a few months first, I’d do that while repairs here and there are being complete. There’s also a new building going up next door, so getting in /​out of the parking lot can be a mess with them always in the way. Overall though, I’m very glad to live here!

The 15 month lease is extremely common when a new community is doing a lease up, it is so that not every single person’s lease expires at the same time. If you don’t like it wait a year and lease then, or live somewhere else! If you don’t mind that kind of commitment defiantly stop by I think it is a beautiful property with very helpful staff, I’m looking forward to moving in.

Leases have to 15 months!!! I’ve never give 1 star to anywhere. Only here I have to give 1 star because sale say only 15 months leases, She said «if everyone lease 10 – 12 months my business lost» OMG!!! Forget it

Wow, not even in business yet and playing games! As of July 19^th, no leases for less than 15 months, with no reduction in monthly rent. How do you say, see ya later!
