    I love where I live. And when I've been in the office and I see new tenants I let them know they have made a good choice. I my disatisfaction with the noise is due to a tenant with no regard to her neighbors. Great staff management. Not moving anytime soon if ever.

        Its been my first week since I've moved into Kensington Gardens and so far 3 things have broken down on me. The microwave breaker needs to be turned off from time to time. Toilet flusher was broken but was fixed and now my washing machine is down

              Apartments are great, but you don't get to choose your cable, phone or internet company. It is only the one that belongs to the community. The exterior of the buildings could be better. Worst is the noise, you can hear EVERYTHING from neighbors.

                This is a nice community. It's fairly quiet, no drama, especially in phase II. You can hear your neighbors quite well when you're in your apartment so that's the only BIG issue I have and there is one lady who works in the office who is very short and impersonal with people. Other then that I would recommend living here. It is extremely hard to move in though. I believe they have a waiting list.

                      Hi, Thank you for your review of Kensington Gardens. I am glad that you are a resident with us! As you are aware we screen all residents very thoroughly and it is unfortunate that outside forces sometimes disrupt the lives of the residents. We do use a patrol company that does monitor the property at night, if there is an issue please contact the office for their contact info. Also, can you please contact the office for pest control, we do offer that to our residents at no charge. They can address the issue that you are experiencing. We hope to make your stay enjoyable.

                      Staff is awesome, very nice and friendly, Jaime was great. Only issue I have pest control which I pretty sure staff is working on it. Nice neighborhood, beautiful view from valcony. Nice and peaceful place to live. Hope they get to work with my pest control situation since living with roaches is an inconvenience.

                        Avoid this company since they don't give you any options for any other cable company. Cable/internet service is horrible and they can careless. They aware since numerous tenants complain but since no issues just taking your money every month.

                            If your looking for a nice, safe, drama free living this is not the place. So many rules in here its just ridiculous, out of all the parking on the property their is a very small section that's always full so basically u can't have any guest after ten or you will be towed. Apts are built cheap just so many problems! Don't move to Kensington Gardens

                              Goo so far, except for preventive maintenance. Was told air condition blower motor was going bad. First they said they would replace it, then they informed me it had to actually go bad before they would replace it, leaving me without air for an undetermined amount of time. If they new it was going bad, why not go ahead and replace it. I do not understand this reasoning.

                                I love the community and the area, is close to shopping centers and is accessible to I-75, which for me is great. I just don't like the new Manager his attitude sucks, otherwise I love the place, maintenance sucks some times too, they take too long to take care of issues.
