Marquis Apartments

College student who lived here for approximately 1 year. Great place to live for young people, very quiet (depending who lives above you), minutes from downtown, and the prices are reasonable for the location. The management are always doing something for the community. However, maintenance can be slow at times. The place is kept clean by the staff daily. Watch what you do because some residents watch and report you to management. The neighbors that lived above me were ridiculously loud but luckily they moved in once I’m leaving. I can go on and on, but the amenities are nice inside the apartment. The appliances are very energy efficient which made electric bill come to around $ 60 – 80 a month in a 3 bedroom. If you are a young professional or student looking for a place to live, this would be a perfect location.

Being a resident since Oct 2009 and downgrading from a 4 to 3 bedroom and all I can say is it’s the Greatest place to Live and the staff and amenities are exceptional.#happyresident

If you are looking for a conveniently located, safe, clean, well kept, and properly managed apartment to live then I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOUDO NOT EVEN THINK OF CONSIDERING MOVING TO THE MARQUIS APARTMENTS. My car has been broken into, the gate is always broke, when it gets dark there are constantly shady people coming and going, especially through a coded door that leads to the stairwell which gives whoever/​whenever access to all of the floors. The inside of the apartment is cheap, and done with little attention to detail. The management company is out of Atlanta, and apparently hire people without any prior experience, and defiantly nothing more than a high school education. If you enjoy being disappointed then sign a year lease, you will have the feeling almost instantly.
Also, be prepared to have your cars suspension damaged, all but one of the streets leading to the complex are rated in the top 10 worst streets as far as pot holes, sink holes in New Orleans.

THANK GOD THE LEASE IS UP!!!
As you can tell I am beyond happy that I do not have to call this place home any longer! The management makes it seem like you are live in a modern day concentration camp rather than a nice apartment building.
Having a package delivered? Don’t even think about it. The office will sign for your package but never notify you that it has been delivered. They then will send the package back!
Have a dog? Well I hope you have little baggies attached to your hip! The maintenance man watches with a close eye and if you attempt to walk to where they have bags provided he will stop you and instruct you to pick up your dogs mess.
Have a nice car? I would recommend downgrading or parking elsewhere! Your car will get broken into! Even of you park it inside the gate. Management is also known for having tenants cars towed who park in the outside lot.
Having a get together on a holiday? Go somewhere else. Management shuts off the elevator to prevent people who do not live in the building from entering. Resulting in everyone having to take the stairs, even of you have a baby in a stroller!
The lights in the parking lot are always out so you never know who or what is out there waiting in the middle of the night. Never once was I able to walk to my car and feel safe.
The gates that are provided for safety are always broken and left standing open all night allowing anyone to enter.
Management likes to do routine «inspections» of your apartment. Not the maintenance people but the little fat ladies that sit in the office.
If you have something that needs to be fixed. Good luck! Sometimes you have to wait up to 3 months!
I fell so sorry for the people who are moving in and do not know what they are getting themselves into!

I have lived here in a four bedroom apartment for two years. I have never experienced any of the problems that I have seen on other review websites. The office staff are exceptional. Really — they are. The rent is affordable. The apartments themselves are nice. As far as appliances and such, the stuff is good quality. I have never had any problems with neighbors (even when the UPS man dropped a package off with a random neighbor who I had never met!). The pool and clubhouse are nice. Sometimes the gates break (it happens). Overall, this has been a great place to live. So great, that I am living here again next year. Go Marquis!

The common areas are Fair. The apartments are too. Nice appliances and finishes but not exceptional.
