Drops the ball in every way.
The shell is the best part. Toilet has broken 3 times. Oven twice. Fridge once. The water heater is tiny so you get 15 minutes of hot water max. Ineffective maintenance (clearly) The landlord is also very strict about little detailed rules that hurt the residence just to satiate paranoia. We are not allowed to have ANYTHING outside the apartment like displayed in the picture. And he has rocks lining the grass, no one ever drives in it, but in case you do, you will have to pay for thousands of dollars for repairs. Laundry machines are the worst I've ever used but the most expensive somehow. Breaking quite frequently and costing me quarters every few weeks. I fully regret moving in here. I love the airflow in the apartment, the fresh air in the area makes me want to give it a chance, but the property management is absolutely useless.

Cheap but outdated
This apartment is decent. There is new carpet and half hearted tile in the kitchen. Mismatched new ish fridge and stove. The kitchen is still from the 1970s as is the shower. There is damage to both, as in burns and chips on the counter, broken drawers, and chipped tub and permanently stained shower walls. There are only two windows in the unit, but they are newer. The walls are in good condition, but you can definitely hear the neighbors. You can hear their conversations plainly, which is annoying for both parties. There is central heating and cooling which is nice. The layout of the unit is nice as well. The parking lot is terrible there are huge holes that about break your car. The laundry room is expensive for how small and old the washer is and the dryer doesn't dry clothing all the way. The landlord demands you leave nothing even bicycles outside your unit. And leaves notes saying he will remove them on some units, where a unit next door will have a grill which is supposedly banned as well. Go figure. Also the lady who mows the lawn blows grass at your car, and she also clears snow. I was blocked in many times after she 'removed' snow last winter. We've lived here for two years now, as it is pretty much as low of rent with now bugs you can come by in Ankeny. Lately I've noticed rougher looking neighbors more and more prevalent. For the price you can't expect much, but there are no bugs.
