Talavera At the Junction Apartments

Clean, modern, dog friendly. I love the garages and feel very safe. Neighbors are quiet and the landscaping is pretty. Great gym and pool. Not a huge fan of quarterly inspections, but they are worth it.

I have lived in apartments ten years and I have seen it all. This has been the best place I have ever lived! It is a bit pricier but you get what you pay for, everything is brand new, the area is clean and quiet and it’s close to everything! I have loved the communication and professionalism of the management. This is a great place to live.

Do not live here EVER, they treat veterans with disrespect and contempt, no compassion. The financial manager is a little twit. DKNY do it you will regret it. Since the old management is gone this place has turned for the worst !

New management took over in 2015 and since then staff has been rude, condescending, and absent minded. Avoid this place at all costs, you can find MUCH better apartment for a WAY better price. Don’t come back to this review thinking «I should have listened…»

We have been very happy here for 8 mos so far. We chose to spend a little extra after reading overwhelmingly positive reviews on the complex, and now can add another. It was totally worth it. The place looked nearly brand new when we moved in, beautiful modern layout and furnishings and in very good condition. The 2-​bedroom is plenty of space for 2 people, luxurious master bath, balcony, and open kitchen. LOVE in-​unit laundry. There’s a mandatory $ 85/​month fee for cable and Internet which is set up and ready to go, your own secured network. You can also rent a detached one-​car garage for $ 100/​month. We use the gym all the time, which is well-​equipped, kept up nicely, and there are usually machines available even on weekday evenings.
Beyond the amenities, the staff could not be kinder or more helpful. Maintenance requests are always done next day. I have called the office with questions a fair bit from when we started looking until now, and they are very helpful. I do wish the office was open later or on Saturdays, though, it’s tough when you work full time.
It’s quiet mostly, no vandalism or violence issues at all and I’ve never once heard loud music or seen a party going on. We live on the top floor and never hear neighbors through the walls, only kids and dogs outside and never at inappropriate hours. We love the area, it’s not a neighborhood feel but new and really close to the highways so easy to get everywhere. They’re building more and more so it will be a happening place soon. Quite a few casual restaurants and the Winco within walking distance, as well as Gardner Village and the Jordan River path (which is pretty lame though).
Overall:Noise:Neighborhood:Grounds:Maintenance:Safety:Staff:

Super clean and quiet. Maintenance staff are really on top of things here. Very happy moved here.

The apartments and grounds are very well maintained. When we have an issue, maintenance is very quick to resolve it. The only issue we have is being near the pool. It is difficult to have the windows open when people are being loud by the pool after hours. We call security at least a few times a week to kick people out. It would be less of an issue if we didn’t have a small child trying to sleep. Would still recommend Talavera.

We have lived here for a year now and we have loved every day of it.
It is so conveniently located next to UTA track and many shopping centers. We love that there is a bike trail right behind the complex that can be easily accessed by a bridge.
Management is super friendly and quick to respond to any questions or maintenance.
The complex is always well kept and clean.
The clubhouse, pool and gym are really nice treats we try to take advantage of at all times.
We live in a two bedroom apartment and everything is fairly new and in great condition. Everything works great and is well built.
I would recommend friends to pick this place to live.

We have loved living here, we are currently deciding whether or not to renew our lease. The location is great, the Trax being within walking distance as well as the grocery store and quick food being just minutes away. The management Is great as well! We live in a townhouse, and the walls are great! We never hear our neighbors. A few cons are: the price, it’s pretty common for the area, but it’s not a great deal. We also wish we had a backyard or patio area to bbq on, or put some big containers on to garden, and they also require a 60 day notice, which makes moving hard and exspensive. Also, the mandatory media package just sucks, the internet is always slow with WiFi because of soooo many people. We may move if we can find a better deal on price with some sort of outdoor space. Overall I’ve been pretty happy with Talavera.

I signed a 8 month lease and for the most part loved living there. Was in a great location, had an amazing staff and large accommodations for a one bed one bath.
During the winter, my water heater started spewing water and blew out the pilot light, both needed to be replaced, the maintenance crew responded quickly, and the general manager was on the phone and offered my his suite to stay in till it was fixed. Zach at the front desk was always able to answer my questions and provide great help.
My only real complaint is in regards to a mandatory media package I was forced into that I didn’t even use, Internet was slower but not horrible and the required 60 day notice or increased fees for month to month. Having moved from California, these were unheard of impositions.

It’s lovely do you get to plant stuff in the flower beds without a problem from the management.

Great customer service and the environment is great in this area I love my townhome is quiet and never have a complain about anything

I love living here! Apartments are so nice, if I have any issue it’s resolved within hours. Everyone on staff is always helpful.
The neighbors are nice and the property is always clean. So far it’s been the nicest place I’ve lived.

I LOVE living here! Any problems we have had are immediately addressed, and the office staff is always so kind and helpful. Any «complaints» are normal things you get anywhere, and the staff does everything they can to fix it.

I lived in a one bedroom apartment at Talavera for a year, I absolutely loved my apartment everything was very clean and very nice and new. The office staff went above and beyond my expectations! They were always super friendly and always made sure I was happy and taken care of. I would live there forever if I could :)

Lovely, and quaint little area, right next to Gardener Village. Beautiful since the weather’s warmed up, and much nicer looking in the winter than our previous residence. The staff’s a delight and are more than willing to help out with anything that needs doing. Our neighbors are all friendly and there’s plenty of room to let children run and roam around to play without worrying too much. We’re incredibly close to the Trax and a Winco. Lovely areas to bike or walk just behind the complex. Definitely a place I’d recommend to friends that I haven’t already recommended this place too!

I am not a paid resident and yes, I really live here. I have lived at Talavera for 2 years and I really like it. It is my first time living in an apartment complex, and I’ll admit that I was nervous moving in. I was worried the management would be terrible and the neighbors would be noisy, but neither of these is true. The office staff is really nice and greet everyone by name. They’re very accommodating and seem to really care about my happiness. I feel safe living here with my kitty. It’s also very close to TRAX which has saved me quite a bit of money going to work. I would definitely recommend Talavera.

My family and I had a 10-​month lease on a 2 bed/2.5 bath townhome.
Pros: Aesthetically pleasing units, friendly and knowledgeable maintenance staff, well-​maintained playground and pool areas, alternative lease lengths (we were building a home and didn’t need to be in a lease for 12 months).
The front office staff is friendly and could usually answer most questions up front.
Cons: Parking is scarce if you do not have a garage and/​or a covered assigned pace.
We had an ant infestation in our kitchen which wasn’t resolved until the front office had sent out a pest control company to lay down ant traps 3 separate times. They set traps rather than spraying, which didn’t really take care of the issue.
We had an incident where our 2^nd floor ceiling was leaking rain through our ceiling fan in the master bedroom – onto my bed/​bedding. They were able to repair the leak (which was a construction issue, not a plumbing issue) through the attic space, but offered no compensation for my ruined bedding, even after we requested it.
If the front office staff could not answer a question I had up front, they were only so-​so about getting a response back to me either via a return phone call or otherwise.
We vacated our unit about 2.5 months early and continued to pay on our lease. The property management company’s policy is to not accept an automatic withdrawal payment for the last month’s rent that is owed and they require residents to write a physical check for it. Since we had vacated the apartment early, I contacted the front office on 3 separate occasions to obtain the exact amount we’d owe for our last half-month’s rent (our lease was up on the 14^th of the month) and on each occasion was told I would receive a call back regarding the exact payment amount as they were in the process of leasing the apartment to another renter and that would affect the amount we owed. I never heard back from the front office even after those 3 separate phone calls, the last of which was placed to the office on the 1^st of the last month we had our lease for. We were sent a move out statement that was highly confusing and when I called to speak to the property manager to go over the statement for clarifications, I was told he would have to speak with their accounts manager and he would call me back. I never received a call back from him. I did receive a notice in the mail from the property management’s internal collections service informing us that we owed upwards of $ 300 on our lease. I had to speak with a representative from the collections company to obtain an updated move-​out statement, which was never sent to us by Talavera. We have settled everything now, but the confusion, hassle, and instances of being ignored by the company after repeated attempts at contact were very off-​putting.
Overall, this was a nice place to live, and if there are no issues, the management of the property goes very smoothly. If there are any hiccups at all, everything seems to fall apart at the seams, which is more than frustrating.

Pros: I have a townhome unit, and they are very clean. I almost thought that I was the first to live here because of how clean they were. The appliances are new, nice granite counter tops, black oven, fridge, dishwasher, microwave and nice cabinets (none of that ugly white crap). The move in special was nice. it was one month free rent. Three hour maintenance is nice, but I’m not sure how this would work out on a Sunday.
Cons: The parking situation sucks, it’s hard to park near your own front door. The walls aren’t paper thin, but you can hear people walking up and down the stairs and closing drawers and cabinets, so if you have a yippy dog… The pool is nice, but is really close to peoples units and for that reason, it closes at 10p.m. The gym is small and is lacking a thing or two, and it also closes at 11p.m. which is stupid because it’s a tiny gym and some people might want to exercise without feeling crammed (max capacity is probably 5 people). There is a strange window above the door of the townhomes, which makes it really awkward to try and walk up and down the stairs without thinking that someone could be watching you. There are two bathrooms, but they are both upstairs, it would be nice to have one downstairs. The rent is a little high for what you get. I hate cable television, yet they force you to pay for it ($ 60 extra a month for cable and internet) imho cable is a waste of money. Another waste of money: $ 300 non refundable pet fee + $ 35 monthly pet rent. So the $ 1289 rent turns into $ 1384 really quickly just from =having a puppy and pissing away money on directv.
Overall: It’s not a bad place, but it’s not very efficient. I’ve been here two months and am already paying the $ 2,000 lease break fee to buy a house.

I have lived at Talavera at the Junction Apartments for 13 months. These apartments have been the best apartments I’ve ever lived in! I moved in and am moving out under some rather unique and urgent circumstances. The office staff has been incredibly helpful during the processes of moving in and moving out. Breck went out of her way to expedite my initial application, which greatly facilitated my move-​in. I’m relocating for work, and Haylee has graciously assisted in making my move-​out incredibly simple. The apartments are brand new; I never had to ask for maintenance requests. The floors and walls seem pretty well insulated; I never had a problem with noise. I never used the pool/​hot tub, but they always looked clean and well-​kept. The small gym was always clean and pleasant for early-​morning workouts. I’m sad to be leaving these apartments. I have loved living here and the management staff has treated me like family. I highly recommend looking into Talavera At the Junction or any of the other Wasatch Premier Communities during one’s apartment search.
