Berkshire Village District

For a building that claims to be a luxury apartment, the Berkshire is very poorly maintained. The pool is often randomly closed, the trash rooms are constantly overflowing, one of the elevators was down for weeks, the mail room has been broken and unsecured since before Christmas, my dishwasher was broken for 6 months before they finally replaced it, my closet racks have fallen off of the wall twice, the gate to the parking garage was broken for a prolonged period of time leading to residents... getting their cars broken into and vandalized (mine was keyed), and the building loves to charge residents extra for anything they can think of. Management is unapproachable and do not care about fixing things promptly. I would suggest looking elsewhere. Instead of fixing things like the overflowing trash room, management sends out emails complaining to residents about how they should use it less. Read More

I've lived here for the past 3 years, and the quality of living has drastically decreased in the past year. Parking spaces have been limited, dog poop is left around the carpeted hallway, doors/elevators break often; and management has done a poor job of respecting residents and resolving concerns.

There are plenty of apartment options around the area, I would highly suggest looking elsewhere before signing a lease here. I know I will be looking elsewhere when my lease ends.

To start with, I am a current resident, and have lived here for a year and a half.

1. The parking is terrible, and has just recently been exacerbated by Berkshire implementing "reserved parking". This allows you to pay for premium parking, and is an obvious way to make more money from residents who already disappointed with the parking to begin with.

2. Even worse, on your average day 1/3 of the elevators are not functional at some point. Looking through my email, I've received 30+ emails from... the complex in the past year and a half regarding an elevator being broken. This means that, combined with reserve parking, it can often take 10 minutes to travel from your car to your apartment. Read More

The apartments are gorgeous and you have everything you need close by, which is always a plus. The staff is always friendly and as accommodating as possible. The events are fun and inclusive, I very much enjoy living here.

These apartments are gorgeous!! They could use a bit more storage space, but you can rent an external unit for super cheap. The neighborhood has great restaurants and shopping within easy walking distance. I am so happy I relocated here!
