Fusion 1560 Apartments

READ BEFORE YOU Even consider this place. I’ve been here 7 months now. They have lost 75 percent of my packages, hold packages up front and tell you nothing was delivered and it ended up being in the office for 1 full month! The fire alarms are set up wrong so when our one of the three buildings went on fire my alarm went off and not the building that was actually on fire. We were looking in a window watching a family watch tv as the floor underneath then was in flames, the entire building is built wrong. Level 1 and ground are different in all the elevators so it doesn’t bring you to the correct place. To leave the building you can go out any door but there are no fabs on the doors to get back in, all you hear are fire and police alarms going everywhere, they built the building so it makes everything impossible to have a guest over. You will need to walk them to and back bc it’s built like a bad maze and you new a fab to go anywhere, I pay 100 dollars just to park my car and I got home late in a rental due to car problems and could not get a permit bc the office is closed and they towed my car. This another 150 on top of the 100 pay every month, the walls are so thin you can basically hear conversations, since I have been here there has been all new employees every month so no one has a clue of what they are doing bc they are constantly training, they put a little paper in the elevator saying you need to put permit stickers on them or they are throwing out your bike so if you didn’t see that paper say goodbye to your expensive bike, you have to sign an agreement that if you aren’t in your apartment for so many days straight that they can rent out your apartment any day they want even though you have a lease and live there! Like bugs? Hope so bc you will find them all over your apartment. Other people living here say they keep highering the rent price. This place is a joke, they can’t even keep the employees! I get someone else mail all the time and keep telling them to switch the names yet it hasn’t been done. You pay for fast shipping but you get it a week or two later bc the office isn’t open early enough for them to sign for a package. They mess everything up!

Be careful about what the property says that it offers because problems don’t easily get resolved. It advertised as smoke free when I moved in then new management told me they don’t have that policy any longer and neglected to remove it. Smoke constantly comes in my windows from neighbors and has made me sick. The manager is willing to move me to a comparable apartment if I want to pay the increased rent on my size apartment and not what I signed up for only 3 months ago. I’ve had a very difficult time and wouldn’t want it to happen to anyone else.

Poorly managed property that is extremely overpriced. You’ll find the manager Darcey very unwilling to provide any assistance with issues. I used Unilocal to find this place so feel compelled to warn others to look elsewhere.

Worst property I’ve ever lived at. Lots of rude inconsiderate neighbors. Poor management and extremely overpriced. Do not waste time or money here.

I lived here for about 9 months about three years ago. I still think about this building and how much I miss it. I thought it was expensive for the area but for what the building was, it was great. I came running out of Urban Style Flats because they were HORRIBLE!!! I love the place, the walk downtown was easy and safe and its so close to Tropicana field. I am not a baseball person but there were always events going on there, circus, town fair, etc.
The only issue I had was one of my neighbors constantly stole the door decorations and welcome mats of the people on my hall and would destroy them, but thats not the buildings fault. Other than that I have no complaints. If I ever move back to the area this will definitely be the first place I look.

Five thousand stars!!! We are so impressed with this complex, and especially the staff– specifically Juliette. What a wonderful, warm, and professional individual. She made us feel so welcome and was so informative– no surprises! The tour was actually enjoyable. We felt absolutely no pressure. The grounds are the best I’ve seen and the amenities alone are well worth the $$. This place is the gold standard from value to property to staff. What a wonderful breath of fresh air.

The new management is terrible, nothing is maintained The coffee machine downstairs never works because nobody empties it, they processed my rent check twice one month and overdrafted my account, and they constantly lose my packages. The front office goes through new employees about every month so nobody knows what they’re doing.

The new management isn’t that bad

I lived here for a year. Everything was fine BUT and this is a big BUT, the construction is really cheap so you can hear everything your neighbors are doing (if you catch my drift). And also they should probably clean or replace the carpets…

I lived here for a year and enjoyed it. It’s right next door to Ferg’s and Tropicana Field. But it’s a bit from central downtown. Having a parking garage is really nice.
The people in the office are super nice and helpful. Maintenance is prompt and usually happens within 24 hours.
The shared amenities are new since the complex opened up fairly recently. However, once things break they don’t tend to get fixed — which. Can be frustrating.
Neighbors are a mixed bag from partying college kids to older couples. Not many families.
Be careful when paying via credit card. They ask to keep it on file (which I categorically do not do), but will always add a 3% convenience charge to any transaction.

Fantastic apartment Stayed for 2 months and rented through Avenida suites– fantastic apartment-​quiet great amenities. Pool gym rooftop patio. Excellent!

Loved, Loved, Loved Annlyn!
My wife and I recently were looking for a place and Annlyn was GREAT. She made us feel at home before we ever saw an apartment. The building is loaded with amenities (a massage room, fitness room, rooftop, way more than I can even describe– truly fabulous) I highly recommend Fusion1560 and I recommend you deal with Annlyn.

Cons:
— Paper thin walls and ceilings (you will hear neighbors walking, jumping, your lamps will be vibrating.)
— Every Tuesday (often at 5am-​6am) we were woken up by almost an earthquake loud sounds and vibrating windows when the garbage is taken out.
— Right along emergency route (16^th street) where ambulances and fire tracks are rushing ²⁴⁄₇ — unable to open windows for fresh air! I have lived right next to Fire Station before but they were not using sirens at night. We woke up many times at night.
— I found some cockroaches in our apartment and hallway — yuck.
— Sauna is not working, the TVs at the gym are not better.
— All light bulbs are incandescent, therefore electricity bill is high. We changed some, but most are not changeable.
— Lots of creepy people waking around the building, you will witness incidents from your tiny balcony. I witnessed accidents and minor car crashes very often.
— Lots of dog hair everywhere! Our apt and car was full of dog hair, and we don’t own a dog.
Pros:
— Nice TV area and party room.
— Big and nice pool.
— Washer/​dryer in unit.
— Fresh coffee and DVD rentals available daily.
— Covered parking (first come, first serve)
— You may be in luck If you face pool — it won’t be so loud.
— Trolley and Police station right across the street. I felt safe with Police across the street.
— Free pest control available every week, if you notice any bugs.
— You can rent an apartment for 7 months instead of 12 months. It was about $ 1,200 for 1 bedroom apartment. Compared to Miami area, this price is good.
Bottom line: Good for students who has dogs, and enjoys loud areas, enjoy hearing neighbors, and love the sounds of sirens any time of the day/​night.
We are glad to leave, looking for a quiet place.

I love Fusion 1560 apartments. Clean, quiet, nice, And have resident get togethers that they pay for! Not to mention the ease of living right on Central Ave– central to everything.

Hello I have lived here for nearly 10 months and I love it! The perfect apartment complex doesn’t exist unless you’re super rich. I like the amenities.
The pros:
— Nice pool
–High ceilings
–in unit washer/​dryer
–dishwasher
— ice cold ac
— nice workout room
— pet friendly
— trash chutes on each floor
— so far I’ve had really good experiences with the front office staff. Most recently they were doing fire extinguisher and smoke detector inspections. they notified residence of the two days when the inspections will be taking place. When I got the notification, I called down to the office and spoke with management. I work night shift and I kindly requested that they come to my place either first thing in the morning or last thing in the evening. My request was honored
–I like the covered parking
–Close to bars and restaurants
–children are sparse
The cons :
–The sauna by the pool doesn’t work.
–There’s never a masseuse in the designated masseuse room.
–Sometimes the locks on the parking garage doors don’t lock properly and thus they get left open
–I wish that the sliding glass doors had screens on them.
No complex is perfect, but Im happy
For of you concerned about the noise…
–go to the suburbs
–Live on a higher floor
–ask for an apartment that doesn’t face Fergs

My wife and I have enjoyed living here for nearly 3 years. Kathy, the property manager, and Mike, head of maintenance, bend over backwards to create a welcoming home.
Granted, I can agree with the points of some negative reviews. But the problems they’re talking about (loud neighbors, thin walls, not cheap) apply to every apartment complex, not just Fusion.
Would I recommend living here? The best proof I can offer is that I resigned my lease 3 times in a row.

Poor management… loud noises. Lot of fire rescue sirens 24/7…thin floors…

I am a resident here and can speak on the quality of this place. EASILY one of the worst place I’ve ever leased… I am 11.5 months into my 1 year lease and I am literally counting the days until I leave.
My most recent bad dose of Fusion was just today when I found out that some of the apartments, including the one directly above me, are leased as corporate housing a.k.a. anyone can be in them at any time. Currently there is a family of six (incl. 4 rumble tumble kids) living in a 2 bedroom apt. right above my head.
If that’s not bad… then hear this. When I moved in my washer, refrigerator, and hot water weren’t working. The panels of the ikea kitchen cabinets fall off when I sweep. I had to call the cops several times for people banging on my door at 2 am. My welcome mat was stolen. Aaaaaand (my favorite) my iPhone got stolen right from out front of my door.
Why was it at my front door? Oh yea, because the concierge that was supposed to hold my boxes just decided that they wouldn’t. Even better, the person that stole the phone lived on the fourth floor of this building and NOTHING was done.
I’m ONLY giving this place 2 stars because the bad occurrences are less frequent… but there is still a lot of improvement to be done. Oh, also, Sierra (front desk) is just as sweet as can be. She helps out with my faxes, pays special attention to my packages, and makes sure maintenance gets to my place when I need them. As for the rest of the staff, I can’t say much… They’re part of the new management so I dont have much experience with them. They leave cookies out next to our coffee machine so YAY but everyone I’ve talked to seems to be on the fence about whether they’re any better than the old management. Time will tell :-/

I am not a resident so I cannot comment on the quality of the apartments. But I can comment on the service of the office staff! If you are looking for an apartment community with amenities, and office staff services are on your list, please look elsewhere. My friend lives there and for her birthday I sent her flowers through ProFlowers. After I sent them I found out she would be out of town on the delivery date. I called the office and spoke with Kathy. I explained my dilemma and she was willing to help by getting the box, opening it and putting flowers in water. She was so convincing that I sent a thank you note with a small gift card as an appreciation. I told my friend there was a package for her at the office. When she returned home she went to the office and asked for her packages. The staff gave her one box, but didn’t give her the flowers. Now, 12 days later, when the flowers are dead and the delivery box is still sitting there, the office staff refuses to take any responsibility for the error. I spoke with the Regional Manager and got the same ‘not our responsibility’ attitude. She basically told me it was my fault for asking them to hold the flowers in the office until the resident returned. Today, when the resident went to the office to talk to the manager they never gave her the box or the flowers or apologized! And the manager still hasn’t returned her call. Not a place I would want to live and I definitely wouldn’t trust them to be helpful. BEWARE of the staff there!!!
