Tenant Reviews for 949 PORTLAND STREET

I live at 909 and I have to say its one of Nupacs nicest...it doesnt look like a crackhouse (like some of the others) and it is in an excellent location. Do not plan on having a car unless you get school parking...but the space size is excellent for one person and I only have 11 other neighbors. The kitchens could use re-doing but I havent seen a bug since I got here and its really quiet. If you put in a maintenance request they always show up which I love. The main maintenance guy, Luis is one of the nicest people I have ever had to deal with.

I have lived in Ellendale PL. 2831 for two years, because I was very impressed and comfortable in my first year. Management really pays attention to your concerns, and fixes every damage right away before you move in. For instance, they renewed my carpet, and fixed my shower, etc. before I moved in. The management team is really kind, and experienced. I give Nupac an A.

My four years at USC and two years at Nupac Apartments 2728 Ellendale Place. Always taken care of, maintenance taken care of same day. Office staff very friendly. Nothing more to add. I give Nupac A

I have lived in NUPAC's 2831 Ellendale Place building for about a year now and have been very impressed with the building and the management. So much so, in fact, that I just recently renewed my lease for another year. I am a long time renter and of all the different apartment managers I have dealt with NUPAC has been by far the fastest, always responding to maintenance requests very promptly (same day if the request is made earlier in the day, next morning if made in the evening). They have also been proactive with maintenance which is something that I had never previously experienced. For instance, the doorknob to my apartment had become slightly loose after I moved in, which was something that I had noticed but felt was nothing more than a minor nuisance, so never bothered to report. Later, maintenance actually approached me and offered to switch out the knob with a new one, which they did right then in a matter of minutes. It wasn't a huge deal, but it meant a lot to me as a renter. Management has also been very friendly and accessible. Whenever I have had a question I have been able to email them and receive an answer almost instantaneously. I also appreciate that I am able to pay my rent online, which is very convenient for me because I don't own a car. As far as the building, it is very well kept. A landscaper comes once a week and takes care of the yard and the courtyard, so the building always looks nice. The refrigerator and stove in my apartment are both nice and clean, and the laundry room has washers and dryers that are very efficient. All in all this has been one of my most enjoyable renting experiences. Not only is this one of the most reasonably priced apartments in this area, I speak from experience when I say that it is also one of the best run apartments. I would highly recommend NUPAC to anyone looking for an apartment in this area.

I am current resident of 3006 Royal Street since 2007. I am satisified with management and upkeep of the place. I dont understand -eve reviews about ths building, when I moved in my place was painted and cleaned, now it is my resposbility to keep it clean. I have seen my neighbors apartment who live like pigs so if they complain then........

I have lived in one of two bedroom apartment at Nupac Apartment for two years. We moved out May 2008 after our graduation and would like to post mu comments. During our stay we did not have any problem or complaints except few minor leaks/toilet clog. All these maintenance request were taken care of same day. We were late on rental payments few times, but werenever charged a late fee. Staff is very friendly. With reference to refund, it was very reasonable deduction.

Apartment very dirty, most appliances broken. Apartment managers very rude and unhelpful. Had plumbing problems too many times without any help from the apartment managers. Also, they did not honor the lease, had to pay extra rent despite giving a month's notice as per lease. All in all very bad experience.

carpet is somewhat old when i moved in, later i found it is actually dirty, so i cleaned it myself. when i moved out i made sure that the carpet was cleaner than when i moved in. they still charge me $200 for carpet shampoo. hell knows if when the money was spent, be aware. manager deduct $200 from my deposit. when i am trying to argue, he said: no argue, you want your deposit back or no?

I'm referring to the 3006 Royal St apartments. The apartment itself appeared halfway decent, but after living there for a while you realize the building has SEVERE infestation issues, to the point where the management has to fumigate several times a month!!! I'm a very clean person, but still there were so many cockroaches in this apartment, and bugs would crawl out of the drains, and the management staff are rude. The people in the building are LOUD and inconsiderate, playing loud music at night, and smoking in the hallways. DO NOT LIVE HERE.
