The place is a mixed bag. Some apartments are nice, with updated amenities like swimming pool and outdoor space. However, the property's infrastructure is old, and issues like broken windows, unresponsive maintenance, and incomplete repairs are common. Some reviewers mention difficulty in getting in touch with management, particularly the office staff. On the other hand, there are friendly and helpful staff members like Brenda, Martha, and Noe, who have gone above and beyond to assist residents with their concerns. Some reviewers have mentioned issues with hot water, A/C, and other utilities, but these problems are often resolved after multiple requests. The area is generally quiet and safe, with a nice view of the surrounding landscape. Nevertheless, some residents have expressed frustration with the high rent and lack of attention to maintenance issues. The property's management seems to be trying to improve, but it's a slow process. Overall, 5Fifty Apartments is a decent option for those looking for a quiet and relatively affordable place to live, but be prepared for some quirks and potential issues.
