Suffield West Apartments

I am a current resident and have been for the past 5 plus years. I have to say, I disagree with the other reviews. Has the property gone through several changes such as new ownership/management yes it has but with any change there will be growing pains. The new owners/management have been nothing but kind, responsive, and attentive. The maintenance staff is the best of the best, if you have a concern they are literally there within a day or so. The property is very safe, the neighbors are kind and respectful. Are the cabinets a bit outdated, yes but that is the least of my worries when it comes to renting a home. Please come visit Suffield West for yourself vs. reading the negative reviews below.

The entire Property was purchased a year ago and has gotten much worse under the new management. They now want $800 more for a 2 bedroom then they wanted 2 years ago yet they have cut maintenance to the bare minimum. They no longer spray for insects so the rotting wood siding has all kinds of critters nesting in it. The basement floods when it rains and is covered in mold. The on site laundry is frequently not working or refuses to dry your clothes properly. Our in wall air conditioner has been broken all summer and they haven't replaced it even with several requests. The cabinets and bathrooms are circa 1960. If you were unlucky enough for them to force a bath fitters plastic facelift on your tub, then you'll pay even more at your next lease agreement. None of the interior door close properly so a nice breeze will bang the doors open and closed all day. The parking lot is a disaster of potholes and tree roots. Parking lot snow removal is pretty slow and you better have 4wd to get your car out. The dumpsters and recycling bins are not adequate for the amount of people living here and are overflowing before pickup every week. They just added an addendum that requires renters insurance of 100k worth of protection per unit. Probably to protect them for when the roof finally caves in on this place. There's no pool, no dog park, no playground for the kids, no gym. I could go on but I think you get the picture.

This place is not worth the money. The cabinets are over 50 years old, they painted over the old doors, walls, etc. You can hear everything from people above insultation is basically none. There is a mice problem....the basement are moldy with white mold growing on the ceilings....the basement get flooded when it rains, there is one washer and one dryer for 8 units. they are always running . Also if you live in he apartment over the washer you have to turn your TV up cause you can here it running. The parking is horrible! The walkaways are always flooded with water after it rains. NO amenities at ALL!!!!! Also just one wall unit air conditioner in all apartments. They are in the living room and the bedrooms etc are always hot in the summer as they do not cool down the unit. They are not worth the money they are asking for!!!!!!

Apartments are out dated and not worth their asking price. We lived there for 2 years. Nothing is updated just painted over. Yeah they may replace your toilet before you move in but that’s all. The vanity is old and gross. The tubs are bath fitted but still the originals from the 60s/70s. The parking a mess with tons of people who don’t live there parking in front of the apartments stopping people who live there from parking by their apartments. While tons of parking, there should be a designated guest spot. The trash is a mess too as people who live there will throw away anything they have- mattresses, dressers, car body parts, and other things that should be dumped at the dump. Lastly there is ONE WASHER per building units. You have 8-12 units to ONE WASHER.
