Very impressed with this neighborhood. Management/personnel/maintenance/neighbors 5 stars. Beautiful area and community. Well built, fantastic amenities. Additional dog waste bins and a stocked coffee/tea machine in community center instead of cold brew/beer would be a fantastic🤗 Loving life at The Ames.

**5-Star Review for The Ames** I recently moved into The Ames and I’m already so impressed with the community! The entire move-in process was seamless and made settling in much easier than I expected. **Office Staff:** The leasing office team, They were friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the application, paperwork, and move-in. Everything was organized and ready when I arrived—keys, gate cards, parking permits, and a thoughtful welcome packet. They even took time to walk me through all the amenities and answered all my questions. **Maintenance:** Maintenance has been great so far. No hassle, no waiting around — just great service. It’s clear they care about keeping the property in excellent condition. The apartment itself is beautiful with great layout, modern finishes, and lots of natural light. The grounds are well-kept, the common areas are clean, and the whole community feels safe and welcoming. I’m truly happy with my decision to move to The Ames. Excellent office staff and reliable maintenance have made this transition smooth and stress-free. I would definitely recommend The Ames to anyone looking for a new home! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have lived here for over 2 years and that whole time there has been a constant problem with the alarms in my building where the fire alarms will just go off randomly in the whole building. These alarms are extremely loud and they will go off sometimes multiple times a night in the middle of the night and multiple days in a row. I have been told that the problem is with some particular part that was back ordered for the alarms yet it has been two years and not resolved, sometimes that will be a few months without any incidents and then it randomly starts up again where they go off every day and despite fines from the fire marshal for having to come out sometimes 3 to 4 times a night it is not resolved. I do not recommend living here if you would like to live somewhere where you can feel comfortable in your own home

Ames is a great place to live. I visited other complexes in the area and to be honest, it wasn’t just the amenities, the monthly community events and the cleanliness that attracted me to this place. It was the first staff member I met, Ms. Dee who’s the “Leasing Consultant” and her warmth and friendly manner. Upon my tour, and in person discussion around leasing options and availability, she was pulled into many directions of residents popping in the office to ask for assistance and just to say “hi” and to thank her for whatever she had assisted them with. After considering relocating from out of state and experience with housing complexes who lack in all the areas that Ames doesn’t seem to lack (friendliness,efficiency, helpful to address any issues or questions, maintain rules in place), I decided to move here. Throughout my process, Dee was ready and available to answer any questions I had. Then, on the move in date which didn’t go as planned (because of transportation issues of mine) Ms. Chelsea helped assist me and walked me through the process over the phone and was very kind and patient and helped explain next steps. It was Ms. Dee who greeted me after her work day to ensure I was able to access the apartment. Ms. Dee’s balance of professionalism, productivity, multitasking and warmth was the perfect balance and it’s where I felt I needed to be, even after I sighed the lease. Now, after moving in, there was a work order placed for the fire detector and within 10 minutes, Mr. Mickey from Maintenance came to my unit to assist. He happily asked if there’s anything I needed help with in which I couldn’t figure out the thermostat and he explained it and showed me how to take the timers off. Now, today, I still see Ms. Dee, Ms. Chelsea and Mr. Mickey around the complex and they are the same helpful and friendly people as my first impression of them. I can express how meaningful it is to live in a space that is being cared for and where there are helpful, kind and efficient employees that seem to go beyond what their job description says. It’s the people they are (Ms. Dee, Ms. Chelsea and Mr. Mickey) that have made my transition of moving to the Ames a breeze. So thank you all!
