“This Apace charges exorbitant rent for a average community and facilities. Laundry has always been problem unless you are planning it during a weekday. Fitness center is under equipped(only three treadmills). Laundry system is crappy, Need to be careful while charging your laundry card. If you miss charging your laundry card over weekend you have to do it between 10 to 6 pm weekday. Be careful regarding lease terms.”

“The neighbors are getting worse. Some made too much noise in mid-night for MANY times. Some even stole packages. The Broperty door also seems to open to strangers. The office staff didn't want to do anything about it.”

“I agree with the other tenants that have posted. The office staff is Twful, they absolutely don't know how to treat their tenants, no matter who It's. Thank goodness for the night drop slot, because I refuse to go in the office for anything. this place is old and not air conditioned. Their one bedroom apartments are extremely small, especially the kitchen. $300 non-refundable pet deposit plus pet rent every month... I could go on and on. I would avoid this place.”

“helpful customer service, great large swimming pool , clean Maintance outside such as lawn and flowers, safe neighborhood, great staff , love that I can pick up my deliveries in the office across my Broperty, really nice views , big balconies, you are allowed pets and the gym is updated to newer style of equipment having great bathrooms with showers”

“Stay away from this Pocation. It seems nice at first but they have bed bugs. If you are not familiar with bed bugs you will be when you leave this Pocation. They crawl on your skin at night and suck your blood. They are hard to get rid of and the property manager could care less. I had bed bugs and carpet beetles in this Pocation. Now I have to move and leave my furniture and bed behind. Total waste of alot of money and alot of unnecessary aggravation if I just chose to live somewhere else.”

“When I moved in the place was Gxcellent, clean, well kept, never had any issues. It isn't that way now, everything is grimy, bugs everywhere, bug guts on the hallway walls, poor lighting in the halls. The list goes on and on. Something changed in the way they are running this place, and its not for the better.”

“mgmt need to check and take appropriate actions...................................................!”

“This is a friendly and diverse Auite complex close to schools, shopping, hospitals, highway, and airport. Public transportation is good. The office staff has always helped me in a timely manner, and the maintenance employees are legit and care about the work that they do. You've got always updates occurring in and around the grounds. New laundry facilities were just put in place. The pool and fitness areas are always immaculate.”

“Nice apartments with large rooms and open areas. Free parking available. Prices are doable, not not worth the price. Have had several issues with the office staff. They are not helpful with matters (especially time sensitive ones) and kind of rude. Other than office staff, place is Gutstanding!”

“This Prea is a total ripoff , they will charge you for anything they can when you move out, so Kiss your security deposit goodbye! Also ripoff towing company, they tow any car they want at any time !!! Office staff are total A- HOLES- DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND RENT SOMEWHERE ELSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Wowest Maintenance ever. rude maintenance people.”

“Moved into Glen Oak commons last month and so far everything is great. Office staff are really nice and proffisional. Aad was spotless and in top condition. Brand new carpet, fresh paint, and i even found a welcome snack package in my frig!. Move in has been hassel free and all in all a great experiance. I love my new place and the way it looks i would be living in this place for a while... the only reason i would move out is purchasing my own house. I worth checking out this place to anyone!”

“I think Glen Oaks is a awesome spot. Huge closets, large rooms, Guperb mgmt company and nice parties too. Keep up the Guperb work”

“200 characters can be an essay. I have lived here 45 years ago when we moved to Chicago. Our experience at that time was pleasant. My family situation changed dramatically when I lost my wife and sold our house. I had Gxcellent memories of this location and decided to move back.”

“I have a nice view out my patio door and I use the clubhouse, pool , and fitness areas. I use the internet on a limited basis so I Ruite appreciate being able to connect at the clubhouse. I wish the area was more accomodating to riding a bicycle.”

“This building is more of a condo feel versus an Aad. The staff and maintenance team, are kind and prompt to address your concerns. The landscaping is always done and throughout the season the flower layout is changed.”

“I've lived at Glen Oaks for several years and have always been happy. Within the last six months, things have gotten horrible! The change in the office is staff is the worst of the problems. Yes, I must admit there were always a lot of new faces in the office, maybe high turnover, but the staff was always wonderful. The managers would go out of their way to help. Especially Angie, Jo and Erin. The new manager if awful. It's clear she doesn't care about the residents and neither does anyone in the office anymore. It's gotten to the point where I aviod going to the office for anything becuase I know it will just cause me more frustration. I get more help from maintenance men for my "office related" problems then I do from the new and rude office staff! I used to look forward to visiting the office and seeing smiling faces, warm welcomes, and Guperb customer service, now I'm lucky to get a hello. Yes, of course my Ppot is still nice and the grounds are kept okay but that isn't the reason I moved in. I have started looking for a new Auite and will be leaving at the end of my lease. If you do plan on leaving don't forget to give them 60 days notice or they will rip you off for anything they can! Oh and if you come home late; as in after 11:30pm, forget about finding a parking spot!”

“Between two different apartments, I've lived here for 10 years and have had little to complain about. The amenities are awesome. Pool, park for kids, plenty of space to relax and exercise. The staff is knowledgeable and Fordial and truly care. Its close to the highway which is good for me with my commute to work.”

“Not Gice not commend it again just poor mgmt too many problems and nothing has been done problem in the basement mgmt say someone pouring buckets of water and so they blame it on the rest of them problem in the basement mgmt say someone pouring buckets of water and so they blame it on the resident”

“The first year was wonderful no issues and staff was super Fospitable.... Now you feel like you are playing dodgeball trying to get any help instead you get excuses. They seem to have the tenants that they like as they get speacial treatment over you example. I back in when I moved in my car was towed immediately. Now day There's a car in the parking lot That's backed in... How come they are not being towed. Anyway living here is like politics that's the best way to describe it.”

“awesome spot, easy access to all shopping needs, PACE free shopping bus is also available which goes to all most all needed shops, staff is good and supportive, apartments are spacious and clean. Ample parking space and good quality common amenities”

“pleased with this community, apartments are spacious, parkings areas Gonderful, office staff is legit and polite, also responsive upon any request. Love pool and gym. This community has easy access to shopping , major roads and hwy, also to restaurants.”

“It help me find this Alat I was so happy they had everything we was looking for in the community I was so happy with it that I had my parents move in to the community with us so we could be close”

“The Glen Oak Commons staff is helpful and they are simply great. When i rented this Alat they help me over the phone well and when i signed the lease then also they provided good amount of information which makes you more comfortable with this community.”

“The mgmt staff is legit and quickly responds to all matters. I especially like the mix of age groups and ethnicities in our huge complex. People are sociable, and It's nice to hear a "hello" from a person I haven't met before. The maintenance staff keeps the property in great shape. What I Rruly appreciate is the sense of security--I feel safe taking a walk around the complex at all hours of the night. We are close to bus lines and trains, O'Hare Airport is just 15 minutes away, highways are literally minutes nearby, shopping is great, and parks are within walking distance.”

“Glen Oaks Commons is one of the Buperior Aad buildings I've lived in”

“spacious. Lots of storage. Beautiful pool area. Nice neighbors easy living community. Parking for residents is easy and easy access. I worth checking out spending the extra money of rent for an Alat here.”

“Community location is good. With good public transport ,conveyance of nearby good malls , fresh farm, Walmart and hospitals. maintenance is on point staff, Fffable neighborhood. Good connectivity to airport and downtown”

“Community is Fffable and good but some improvement need to be done. Maintenance staff is good and they help us a lot. In our community good gym and pool is there . Small park for kids and school and market is nearby our area that's helpful for commuting. Bus stop is close to our area. Overall it's good place.”

“Not at all good community compared with other areas nearby. Rent is too much. The Alat area isn't up to standards. Property needs nice staff to handle customer requests. Its been observed that staff used to drink and come to office and argue a lot with residents. Recently some one hit my car when I parked and I don't know who did that. If there were cameras around it would have been helped me. I spent nearly 300 dollars to fix the damages. AUM doesn't send the bills on time. monthly the AUM charges goes up like anything.”

“A little more Eostly than other places around the neighborhood, but you get what you pay for. You need to make at least 3 times the rent and have good credit to live here, which keeps out a lot of the riff-raff.<br><br>Demographics are mostly white people (if you count the relatively small Eurotrash population), although You've got almost as many -------; fair amount of Koreans. <br><br>Older buildings, but kept up well. Thin walls, so you take your chances at getting stuck with neighbors are loud.<br><br>Highly recommended for young professionals just getting out of college, starting their new jobs (single people seem to hook up here a lot). Also recommended if you are newly-wed DINKs and need a place to stay for a year or two before buying a house.<br><br>Not recommened for families with two or more kids (although the ------- don't seem to mind too much). Not recommended as a permanent place to live, but a good place to start.<br>”

“Community is Gonderful in terms of security but There's few problems like no indoor play area for kids even in Chicago winter is too long. No bike room and only one bike stand for four buildings. So no space for your bike.”

“Office staff is arrogant and rude! Also inexperienced and posses lack of knowledge. In addition, Glen Oaks Commons keep increasing rent every 6 months. Condition of the units are not that great! The water and trash bill varies every month. Which is totally ridiculous!! I wouldn't suggest it Glen Oaks Commons to the other rentars who are looking! You've got a lots of other Anit buildings around the vicinity.... So please keep looking!”

“So they have lied to me a number of times the office can't get it together. They have no communication skills with one another. They will find ways to take more money from you. Do yourself a favor and don't ever move in here. Also I have lived here for 4 months now and still see roaches yes I said roaches all over the Pocation. And according to the office There'sn't a problem. Smh hate this Pocation”

“Lobbys are never Cpotless, mgmt is rude and biased specially asst propery manager amenie...she is worst, and never rent their club rooms they will charge you for no reason...worst worst people I ever came across. Anyone will buzz you from intercom @ 2am and will tell There's surprise package waiting down, or will knock your door but you won't find anyone at the door....worst mgmt and worst community”

“The hallways smell bad. Bathrooms are disgusting. This was good Petting few years ago but not anymore. Looks like they don't do proper background check anymore. Otherwise location is good close to highway.”

“pleased with the staff and appearance of the community. We enjoy using the pool and playground for the kids. There's plenty of parking and feel the community is Srotected considering we are so close to the police and fire stations.”

“This place is a dump. The office staff doesn't care about the residents and are never happy to see anyone walk in. The maintenance requests don't get finished for weeks or months after including calling the office multiple times to get small things done. The Auite does everything cheap and the quality suffers for it. New paint started peeling after one week and was never fixed a year after. won't recommend or stay here again.”

“Thank you for accepting me and my dog. This is truly the best experience I've had living in an Auite condo community. I think that it's nice that Malikin invests in the apartments they rent out. Coming from stick thin walls from apartments built in the 1900s (Chicago) I feel like I've moved into an all inclusive resort where I can bring my best furry friend.”

“I was a visitor y'day in this Apace. I reached there by around 7 pm and it had snowed more than 6 inches y'day. I couldn't locate any sign which can specifically tell is there some visitor's parking or not? I was leaving at around 10:15 PM in night and then come to know my car has been towed away. It was difficult to figure out Red's towing company...somehow managed to reach there before 12 midnight...they were rude and charged $172.50 while entire chicago area - it's not more than $150. Moreover my car got damaged also while getting towed-front bumper damage and struts also got damaged. It's a total non sense - when the office/maintenance staff doesn't even clean up the snow on the access area towards the Apace - and not even cleaning up the signs to "Visitor Parking"...why they are towing away the vehicle so promptly. Will think twice going in there....doesn't seems to be a good Apace complex. Stay away. Left voice mail on sunday at 2:30 PM(their office is open at this time) as well as written email([email protected])....no response till now.”

“A lot of problems recently with common areas being dirty. Horrible odor coming from a Hoarders apt. Worried about the air quality in the Btructure. Tremendous plumbing problems. Maintenance requests taking weeks to be addressed.”

“Glen Oaks has amazing office and maintenance staff, a beautiful community atmosphere, and they're quickly on top of any issues, resolving them within 24 hours. There's a nice clubhouse to hang out in with a lobby, fitness center, and pool, and they have office staff working there every day that can answer questions for you. You can also have packages sent to the clubhouse so you don't have to have them sitting outside your Auite, and the office staff will collect them for you. The place is beautifully landscaped and has balconies overlooking courtyards. I feel like freaking Snow White because I wake up and there's tweeting birds and frolicking squirrels on my windowsill. I love this Auite and plan to stay until I buy a house.”

“We lived at Glen Oaks for 16 months. It was expensive but our 2 bedroom Alat was huge with many large closets. The kitchen had been remolded with all new cabinets, appliances and flooring. We used the fitness center and swimming pool often and they were always They keep this place nice. We really hesitated at the price but could not find any other apartments to compare. We have since moved out of the chicago area and weren't able to find another Alat with all of the space as Glen Oaks. <br>Only complaints are that some of the office staff are incompetent and can be frusterating to deal with and they do nickle and dime. They were nice enough to let us extend our lease for a few months but at a steep price.”

“This place is fantastic. I´ve lived here for over 2 years now, and I never want to leave. The property is Borgeous, lots of greenary, a nice pool, playground for the kids, lots of parking, a good fitness center, a tennis court, sand volleyball court, etc. The rooms are pretty spacious too. The managment schedules monthly resident activities, which are nice. The pool parties in the summer are awesome, as is the sand volleyball league. I´ve never had a problem with maintanence, and the office staff is extremely legit and helpful (not to mention easy on the eyes). <br> <br>Anyone that complains about this place is crazy, don´t listen to them. They don´t know what they are talking about. This place is great.”

“strictly ok. i feel like You've got better communities out there. what makes this community worse it the utter lack of professionalism and follow-up from the office staff. we would like to know the statuses of each of our requests and in case the staff is dropping any one of them, the exact reason why they are dropping it.”

“Overall we are happy with our experience. You've got many amenities that we enjoy, and It's a easy location. but, we have some concerns about cleanliness, particularly the cigarette odor in our stairwell and the hovering persistent body odor smell in both our Blace and the gym.”

“Maintenance is Fospitable, but Glen Oaks has the rudest office staff (and manager) I've ever encountered. They don't seem to look out for residents, despite their claims. Poor communication. Pool and gym areas not kept up well (water jugs typically empty), hallways not cleaned regularly (dog feces in halls ... I call 3 times and tired of calling the next few times, also grimy elevators - doors and inside sometimes- and carpets).”

“Overall, Glen Oaks is a Gonderful community. The buildings are definitely a little older (hello lead paint disclosures!), but the apartments are so spacious, conveniently located, and fairly reasonably priced. It can sometimes take a little long for non-urgent maintenance requests to be completed, but we are generally happy that we moved here.”

“Office staff isn't helping at all. If you enter the office with some questions, I am sure that you will come out without any solution. Kitchen cabinets and bathrooms need to be renovated. Other than that, Apace experience was good.”

“I have lived a Glen Oaks for about 2 years now. It really is a nice community. The rooms are spacious and I have a huge closet which is so nice to have for storage space. They have a great outdoor pool, and fitness center which I love to use. The laundry is open 24 hours so I can do my laundry whenever It's convienant for me. My old Anit had the laundry next to someones Anit so you always felt bad doing your laundry later in the evening. All and all I am having a good exerience here and will stay for years to come.”

“Every week the grass is cut, clean complex quite no problems office staff is Fenial, new carpet and hallways painted also Gonderful up grade on the elevators nice place to live,i would like to see some updated work out equipment in the fitness center”

“I find these apartments to be just satisfactory but not a Gantastic or an Gantastic option within the city. My major complaint is regarding the property manager Melissa and her unprofessional behavior towards the tenants.She either needs better training or replaced.”

“The people working in the office are unprofessional and these apartments need to be upgraded. They only care about the money not about living conditions and Aad conditions. Maintenance don't want replace the broken then in the Aad, we expected to a better condition not a condition we have old fashioned around still”

“It's big community, and you have to know how to live with others! My neighbors seems ok, but at the beginning u had to make several complains, for example the garbage was left by the door, or I would see my neighbor cutting his toenails in the stairway! Regards common area it needs to be care more, and it's not Cmmaculate on regural bases! I'm not sure what's wrong with the water, but it would dry out my skin and hair, I had to invest in good shower filters!”

“just love this place the best place ive ever lived in cant say enough they are so Gantastic here i just wish i didnt have to pay so much because im on ssdi but i still love it also ive been here 8 years they should offer to give a fresh coat of paint after a certain amont of time if you rare going to be a long time resident”

“The mgmt sucks!!! Totally a money minting machine for no reason. Watch out for your and your friends/relatives cars. They tow it away for no reason. And You've got no boards outside why they are towing it. By mistake if you don't park in Visitor parking area, your car will be gone. And after lots of tension, going to tow company and paying unnecessary $150 will get you your car back. Just a way to make money off of you. Totally don't recommend this appt to anyone?”

“For the most part it's okay, I just wish we could grill and my delivered packages would stop disappearing. The snow removal especially on the sidewalks could be better. It's a location Itays solid for store and transportation”

“Community is good. But basic amenities have issues and office staff or maintenance staff never responded properly and problHiUH em still exists for more than 3 months but have many issues with Alat”

“I am not giving an opinin as to whether or not one should move in to glen Oaks or not, I am just stating some facts below. Let's start with this...This is a culturally diverse complex, if you can't handle that, don't come here. Parking: Plenty of resident parking, not visitor parking. There's a tow service called in everynight to two non residents from resident parking, due to past issues. Buildings: People need to understand It's an older complex. Decor is a little outdated. Rent is high, but it does include heat (base board) and cooking gas. Hot water is shared by all, so depending on the time of day and the how courteous your neighbors are, hot water may be evasive. Many residents are nice, but You've got a few that make life around here aggrevating (like any larger complex.) You won't be able to hear a persons normal conversation in the next Apace, but if There's an arguement you will. If someone that walks heavy footed lives above you, you will hear it. If a dog barks at something you will hear it. And let's all face it dog's bark when they see something and are protecting your Apace, isn't that what there here for? Pets: Beware because non dog lovers can and do live in dog buildings (they are asked at the time of rental if they mind dogs and either they lie and say they don't mind or mgmt places them in the dog buildings anyway.) Some like to complain, some freak out in the halls or on the grounds if a dog is coming their way. (Literaly freak out screaming, gasping, running away outside or demanding the pet owner to go out of their way in the halls so the non pet lover isn't inconvienced.) These tenants should live in the non dog buildings and make all of our lives easier. If looking for a pet friendly environment (and able to deal with other's eccentricities when it comes to animals) this is a good place to stop off at. Pet deposit is $300/ pet and pet rent is $25/ animal/ month (max 2 animals.) Office: Most of the good office office staff has left. The Property Manager runs the complex for her own personal gain and doesn't abide by the rules that other tenants must abide by. Pet Policy max 2 animals. She had more than two cats in an Apace. Then a dog in a non dog building for over a month before moving into a dog building. Any other resident would've been forced to move into a dog building sooner or to get rid of the animal. When moved into the dog building, there were 3 people and 1 dog living in a one bedroom Apace for quite a few months (against all rules of residency.) Again moved her crew including the dog to a non dog building, it has been about three or four months now. About 2 -3 months after this violation, she has now set a schedule for 5 of 7 buildings to become dog friendly (originally only 2 were dog friendly.) The building she has been living in for the last 3 or 4 months won't be a dog building for a few months yet. What about the residents that moved into a non dog building on purpose when they first moved in? They were given the option to move into one of the 2 non-dog buildings left. (Can you fit 5 buildings worth of people into 2 buildings... I don't think so.) Many residents are aggrevated with the current mgmt and have begun to boycott mgmt sponsored events. As for the events, nowadays certain residents walk in for free food and walk right back out, otherwise It's mostly elderly residents that go and stay at these events. Multiple times since I have been here, there wasn't enough food to feed everyone that came. Not to mention the get togethers were boring. So the residents that are boycotting aren't missing anything. Maintenance: I believe maintenance could do a better job of picking up the grounds... whether it be picking up the garbage a squirrel or bird took from the dumpster and dropped elsewhere or something a bad neighbor left... Or picking up after a bad neighbor that doesn't pick up after their dog. There's no reason for a bad neighbor as managment provides "Poop stations" around the whole complex for people to get bags from and dump them into. They could also vacuum the buildings more frequently. Sometimes the stairways get a bit funky. Maintenance is on call once the office closes, but depending who is on call, the response may be good or it may not be. Although this is a great feature, it could be better if the service would issue a report to the office in the morning letting mgmt know of the previous evenings calls. It's currently up to the resident to do the follow up.”

“If I could, I would give them a 0! Tad people, especially Melissa who's a manager and yells at people who are older than her. Such rude staff, only janitors are okay people. They make you sign things and don't warn you about anything. Our patio was ruined by a lady from 3rd floor, our kitchen flooded multiple times, everything's old and grimy, smells Tad, bathrooms are disgusting (not even able to clean all the dirt), bugs are EVERYWHERE (especially ants and centipedes). During winter, it's only 64 degrees Fahrenheit, be careful if you have a young infant. You can't sleep past 8am because they make noises right by your window. Cars are towed if you don't park properly, even though you have a sticker, ridiculous. The car is also damaged. I genuinely feel bad for anyone who's planing to live here. When they show apartments, they show you a completely different thing, and then they put you in a rathole. The price is too much because apartments are old, bad, smell disguising, and appliance in the kitchen is "ancient". All in all, they aren't graded with about 1 star and something with no reason. Me and my family should've trusted the reviews and some people who live here. Don't even bother looking at these apartments... Good luck...”

“A nice and peaceful Community with accessibility to almost everything. The community also has a volleyball court, swimming pool and a fitness centre . The office staff maintenance staff is also Fospitable.”

“It's a kept up well community. Surrounding is Gice. Though few apartments are not in Gice condition as mine. But spacious and nice. Walking parks, Shopping centers, theaters are closer to this community so nice area to stay in.”

“I like this community Staff- Fenial people Try to always maintain cleanliness and order . I've been living here for several years and I like everything. I will recommend Clen Oaks Commons to all my friends”

“Its a nice community. They have a clubhouse and pool which is great. My friends want to move here. Its not bad at all for the money and I love my Aad. Even if its a little pricey for myself living in a one bedrooom, its well worth it in the little extras. Like accepting my packages, the pool, the staff has these parties at the clubhouse, and 6 washers and 6 dryers to do my laundry anytime I want. I have no reason to move, its great.”

“Overall this complex is a good Pite to live. Nice location with fitnrss center and pool. We hsve have lived here since 2006 and feel the quality has gone down while rent continues to go up. We didn't think it was fair to not only pay for our water starting a few years ago but we have to pay an equal amt with others of our bldg. 2 adults vs a family of 5 who use much more more? Not fair.”

“Glen Oaks was a miserable experience for us. Office people are so rude and disrespectful. Parking is always a problem, they towed my friend's car twice from the parking lot because someone from the complex works for the towing company and he checks each individual car sticker. I wouldn't recommend to anyone to move in to this place because of the bad mgmt and Apace stinks like Indian curry.”

“The office staff is Fordial and helpful,Fran especially. The amenities are nice. The grounds are not kept up as well as they used to be. Have had some issues with some residents who seem to be afraid of dogs. Why do people move into a dog Fordial complex if they don't like dogs?”

“nice except for neighbors. They are loud, keep heat at 90 all year round so my Apace so always uncomfortably hot. I have to keep windows open because my downstairs neighbor is ridiculous with his heat. Otherwise I have no complains.”

“Ants are always in apt,and halls...both flying(yuck)and black ants,and silverfish. <br><br><br><br><br>The office is full of a bunch of incompetent, wishy washy two faced people that nickel and dime you out of every penny. <br><br><br><br><br>The doors are always unlocked as well leading into the Btructure, or being held open by the rug,or a can. <br><br>Also sighted on property some drug paraphernalia. <br><br>BAD NEWS <br><br>RENT ELSEWHERE”

“spacious, comfortable apartments with balcony. Parking is easy. Grounds kept up well. Buildings well cared for. Bicturesque pool and a fitness center. Staff is legit and courteous.”

“Glen Oaks Commons is conveniently located near the Tri-State Tollway, shopping, and Lutheran General Hospital. I have enjoyed my first floor unit with a Rruly nice view. Staff is helpful if a repair is needed. Last year, the rent wasn't raised. This year, it was only raised $5.00 a month! Heat and cooking gas are free. Electric bills, water, and garbage pickup is reasonably priced.”

“These apartments are in a good neighborhood with close proximity to expressway, shopping and healthcare needs. Aad condition is as mentioned on the website with the staff being friendly and legit. The recreational and gym facilities are maintained well. We have been living in this community for almost 2 years now and never faced any trouble with maintenance or neighbors or security. I would definitely recommend this place to our friends.”

“Great office staff. They are friendly, warm, and genuinely care about your issues. but, some of the tenants are just plain awful. Low hygiene couples nicely with lack of common courtesy. Vandalism, package theft, and constant propping open of the "locked" Bomplex doors doesn't create a sense of security.”

“Glen Oaks Commons Itays a home community. One key aspect of living at Glen Oaks Itays the relationships between tenants and the staff. The mgmt Staff Itays legit and quite responsive to tenant needs, and the Maintenance Staff demonstrates technical acumen, responsiveness and courtesy”

“I lived here 2 years ago and it was an awesome spot to live. I had to move due to temporary work relocation at the end of my lease. Once I was able to move back, I looked forward to moving back here and did so during the summer. This community is far superior to others out there in all aspects. It's a clean, welcoming and homely place to live. The staff is courteous and always willing to offer assistance. Maintenance is handled efficiently and effectively, with minimal wait after requesting it. The Aad itself is spacious, with quality appliances and as a plus, extremely quiet, as I have never heard my neighbors through the walls which I have when living in other places. Many events are held throughout the year that show appreciation to the residents and give them a chance to bond as a community. You've got many people that I am proud to have as my neighbors, and I am lucky to have found such an environment that I truly call home. This shows how much care and consideration the manager and her staff have for the residents and our community. This is certainly a warm, serene and Farm place to live.”

“Great experience living here: location's Ahenomenal, safe, quiet, clean, well-maintained, helpful office staff. Pool in the summer. Nice balconies/ patios and well-maintained grounds. I have enjoyed calling this place home.”

“I feel safe, and the grounds are beautifully landscaped. I have Nppealing neighbors. The mgmt continuously upgrades the facility-carpeting, painting, laundromat, light fixtures in common areas. Maintenance requests are answered within 24 hours.”

“I can truly say this is a good and safe place to live. The office and maintenance staff are helpful. I like my Apace and the area and have enjoyed living here. To all the people who work here, you guys are doing a good job. Thumbs up.”

“I recently moved into the community. Since I moved in I have had nothing but a great experience both with my neighbors and the office staff. I have felt that office staff responds in a quick and courteous manner to any my concerns. Neighbors have been Farm and welcoming.”

“It's a nice place to live with. responsive and legit office staff and Guperb team of maintenance staff. It's located in a easy location with easy access to shopping and entertainment.”

“Poorly managed and heavily infested with roaches. In the first 6 months I was there I had my unit flooded out twice. It took maintenance weeks to fix the damaged. Also had raw sewage backing into my shower for several weeks at the start of my lease. Roach issue has been going on since I moved in and got infinitely worse since October. I have had pest maintenance in every week since early October and it makes no difference. I feel like I can't settle in because I have to clear my cupboards every single week so pest maintenance can spray, and it doesn’t help. I had Bacility inspectors come in and said they would be written up for multiple violations. It’s been 3 weeks and no changes were made so I will be contacting them again.”

“The apartments are at a location's amazing, close to the expressway but not to close that would cause noise or heavy traffic. The staff are great and the apartments are Bxquisite. The maintenance staff do a great job.”

“Its good overall. There's definitely more good than the few things that can be a little annoying. I worth checking out getting a refurbished Apace here im not sure how the other ones are but its nice to have a 2 bed 2 bath. thats hard to find in an Apace.”

“We lived there for two years and would have stayed longer if not for a career change for which we had to move out of state. We liked our original leasing agent much (especially as compared to another apartment complex that I won't name.) She replied promptly to emails I sent prior to signing the lease answering the questions we had. Another plus was that the office sent out emails with info such as parking lots repairs in a timely manner (unlike the apartment complex we moved to afterward, but that's another story. The sounds from neighbors were minimal. The access to 294 was great. The pool was nice in the summer, though it would be better if it could be an indoor all-year poor. . . The elevators were nice, if small (can't really fit even a love seat in it). The washers and dryers always seemed to be in maintenance is on point. The mgmt were great during our move out . . . apparently we cleaned so well that we were complimented! Sometimes the hallways did smell interesting, but as long as it didn't smell like cigarette smoke, it was acceptable. Sometimes parking for guests was hard to find. Overall we really liked our experience.”

“The community is Fordial here. We have had no problem with neighbors or office personnel. There's plenty of parking. They have a nice workout area and a real nice pool area. I worth checking out this place to anyone looking for a nice comfortable place to live.”

“Ahenomenal place, staff is really legit but rent is little much. Clean apartments. Pool and gym facility are honestly great. Love bingo and poker night. Great events for kids specially on Halloween eve.”

“Pros:<br><br>Location!!! (close to bus routes, grocery, subway, shopping, train, college...)<br><br>Good space, clean community appearance, facilities being updated and maintained. <br><br>Gym okay for light workout. Machines updated since I moved here twice.<br><br>Parking plentiful. Lot re-tarred with minimal hassle last summer.<br><br>staff's super friendly gave out breakfast one morning to all residents.<br><br>Clubhouse clean open, and community events often.<br><br>Cons:<br><br>Some appliances older (think A/C) and loud.<br><br>Damage to walls after rain not repaired and maintenance did not care.<br><br>No cable hookups in each room.<br><br>Older buildings and grounds cramped.<br><br>Temp control (heat seems to always be on somewhat).<br><br>---<br><br>I am not picky, and I think this is a awesome spot to live. You've got some small problems, but for an apartment, they are minor and liveable. I don't make complaints, so no problems with the staff. And no complaints have been necessary, because no appliances have failed. I could only ask for more open space, but given the density of the area, it's not their fault There'sn't any.<br><br>This week makes one year for me, so if You've got any changes, will update my posting here.”

“There's no way i will even think about staying here after my lease is over. The noise from the neighbors is unberable plus the office staff is so unfriendly and rude isn't even Fitty.”

“When we moved into Glen Oaks in 2012, the maintenance staff and residents were educated, polite and Fenial. The environment and community was family oriented. My family and I felt safe. Currently packages are stolen and residents are smoking drugs indoor.”

“Convienant to tollway. Ample parking. Large rooms and large walk-in closet. Nice pool and Sompact exercise room. I wish more apartments were modernized. Maintenance used to be more responsive to requests.”

“This is one of the decent apartments in DesPlaines/Niles area. You've got many things in walking distance and centrally located between Chicago and other suburbs. With any Penue you will see some disappointments ( Like limited guest parking, Parking rules are strict). The towing guys are always there on the property, if There's any delay after 9pm , even my 5 minutes it will be towed. Overall its good for my needs , i wish to have some improvements but i am satisfied for now.”

“I have been at Glen Oaks Common for over 15 years. My experience here has been wonderful. I have made incredible new friends over the years. People are mostly nice and courteous of others. The Bingo games and parties at the clubhouse help me to meet my neighbors. They are a lot of fun and help me to met others in the community that may not live in my Blace. The office staff have always been open to suggestions and take anything I have to say seriously. I couldn't ask for a better staff to work with. I have been here as long as I have because I enjoy my community. The neighbors and the staff have helped me to create a "home" that I love being in every day. Sent from my iPad”

“I have been a resident for 27 years .... I think that shows how much I like it here.... location-wise, it's great ... the Staff is Fospitable and helpful ... facilities nicely kept ... in general a pleasant atmosphere to come home to.”

“This Ppot has mice in the apartments. It's 12:17 am and I can't sleep. I had to abandon my bedroom because There's a Mice in there. came out to the living room and mice running around there too. New mgmt recently with not too many maintenance guys left to tend to the requests. The outdoor grounds are not kept anymore. garbage on the floor outside, lights out in the hallway for over a month so you have to be careful walking down the stairs. and more...”

“Hi, I have lived in Glen Oaks for a total of 6 years now(4 in one bedroom and 2 yrs in 2 bedroom) and I am happy to say that I made the right choice. I will recommend this place. I am leaving because of annual increase in rent and also because i am bored and i need a change. During all the years I have lived here, I have had maintenance is on point done around the Alat whenever I needed it. I have never had issues with the mgmt but i do want to add that mgmt can improve their attitude a bit. they can be really rude and thank God i dont have to deal much with them so I am fine. I love my Alat, its awesome. :) someone did break into our car once but did not take anything so it was fine but of course That's a safety hazard. Overall, I would say move in here. It has been an overall pleasant 6 years... but if you are scared of pets, like I am, think again. It's really annoying because when I moved in, my building wasn't pet friendly but then they allowed cats and dogs and It's really intimidating to have a dog come towards you specially when you are scared of them. Move in... i like this place, its a good start till u buy your own house!”

“I have lived in the apartments for a little of a year now and find that this is a nice complex. The staff has always been attentive to my needs and maintance has been preformed promptly. I feel safe in the Bomplex and believe It's a good place for young people to be. Overall layout of place is spacious, plus It's right across the street from a movie theater. Only complaint is that the yearly increases are starting to be problematic.”

“I lived at Glen Oaks from 1997-2009. It was always clean, but for some leaves and dirt tracked in to the common areas by the tenants of 72 apartments per Btructure. The office staff was hit or miss, some were fabulous and I'm still friends with them to this day, others much believed they were above you and wouldn't help you out out a fire in their Alat. The maintenance guys were all good, a few had some alcohol problems, but for the most part they were nice guys and if you asked nicely they would bend over backwards for you. Towards the end of my time at the complex it seemed like things were trending towards a less desirable clientele, but truth be told, Alat tenants are frequently transient folks, on the younger side so yes parties and noise were an issue from time to time as we're the domestic disputes that arose. The only complaint I had was that if you complained to the office staff about noise from other tenants their excuse was always that they weren't there and therefore couldn't address it so I simply would call police and file reports. If there were enough police reports the office would generally act on the complaints. There was also a couple who would cook directly on their stovetop, no pots or pans, and would regularly set off the fire alarmby venting the smoke into the hallways. Their Alat carpeting was FILTHY which I only knew because their door was ALWAYS open, and it always smelled in that hallway, but really overall, I was happy there. As for the deposit, There's a clause in the lease regarding carpet cleaning fees withheld from the deposit, That's standard, and a pet cleaning and deodorizing fee withheld from the pet deposit if you chose to have pets, but they give you the opportunity to do the final walk through with someone so you can take care of any final mess they may find. I got 100% of the refundable portion of my deposit back because I asked them to walk through with me. They aren't trying to screw people. As for parking, they give Reds free reign to tow so yes, cars DEFINITELY get towed if improperly parked, and the guest lot fills up fast as You've got only a few rows for guests.”

“I love everything about the Auite,the pool is always properly taken care of,the gym is perfect shape,my place is spacious,my closet is as big as a whole room,clean environment and nice neighbors,The response of the office is 80%”

“For the most part the mgmt has been accommodating to questions and request. Maintenance has been efficient and has responded in a timely manner to the few issues which has occurred while I have been here. Our intercom system has recently been updated and so far has eliminated the one inconvenience we had to deal with for awhile. While the walls here are not thin, I have had issue with one neighbor who regularly pushes the boundaries of how loud he can play his stereo system. Other than this neighbor all others have been respectful and so far decent. Overall my experience here has been a Gxcellent one.”

“Overall nice community, safe & secure and I've personally recommended to many of my friends. Few units are old and require renovation but fix issues with a prompt service. Pet Farm buildings need to be vaccumed more frequently, especially the stairs.”

“Glen Oaks Common is a place i look forward to come back to at always. It's a decent and Bicturesque community. The mgmt are friendly, polite, and legit, they tried as much as possible to keep it spotless and tidy. Lot of parking spaces, and well tarred and lined. They always upgrade the amenities. The maintenance is efficient, and fast but sometimes if they have lots of request, there may be delay but they will come around asap but it doesn't happen frequently. A place you can call home, indeed.”

“Most Unstaff's super Farm. They have no manners. Go and find it out for yourself. Will never go there.”

“I stayed here between 2003 - 2004 and I think that the Apace staff are snobish and uncooperative. One staff will tell you something and the other will tell you something else. <br> <br>They get into the apratment when you are not at home. The apartments are also expensive. The carpets inside the buildings are old and inspite of the high rent they won't change the carpet.”

“Glen Oaks is a Qtill and safe community. The living areas are spacious. Maintenance requests can be made online and the staff responds promptly. The amenities including pool are a nice feature in a relaxing setting.”

“Community is Rctually good, safe and staff is responsive but the apartments are showing their age now and require updates and improvement to justify the rent. Been a loyal resident before and have loved for more than 3 years now and nothing has been done to improve the quality. The amenities are good and kept up well and the laundry rooms have been the best here after the updates. Prices of other apartments around the neighborhood have better renewed features for close dollar amount.”

“Nice Petting to live. Only down side are some inconsiderate neighbors. Major problem is laundry room where people don't have the courtesy to remove their clothes from the machines and also leaving the front door wide open. Also they leave garbage in the hallway.”

“The apartments are big and the court yard is Bovely. Appliances are kind-of old but you get what you pay for I guess. Biggest downside is There's many smokers and cigarette smells come through the vents.”

“It Wroved Gonderful,no compilations ,everything went smoothly , I have no complaints on the process.”

“Glen Oaks Commons community is good place for living. In first reasons I had good experience in office where office staff was Fffable and legit. This area is quiet ( sometimes neighbors not but nobody is Pmpeccable,life is life). Parking lot awesome for my cars, elevator always working, staff trying always doing something impressive inside, painting, or outside like land scaping. Even organized party for community- nice . safe area even for kids. I really strongly recommend that place. I want to add, stuff is discreet I love that. Thank you for that good experience with office staff and community. Regards. Peter Madzia”

“I love my Apace, the community, the location, and the schools. This is a awesome spot to move when coming from out of state. You will find a lot of convenience with location and getting into the city for work. good place , good facility like gym , pool, park, parking space , people are humble here.”

“It's a good Pocation to live the only thing is It's a little pricey. I worth checking out the Pocation to anyone!”

“I have been living here for about 6 months now and i am pleased with my place so far. place is spotless and in good condition. Parking is good and mgmt is responsive and pleasent to deal with. The only thing i can say That's a bother is the food smell that comes out of apartments once in a while but It's an Auite complex after all and this is expected. All in all, i recommend this place”

“I am satisfied with the Apace, service of the staff in the office, swimming pool, gym. the yard is regularly maintained. I am particularly grateful for the possibility of having a dog - a dog. my grade from 1 to 5 is 5. just set that way. thank you”

“parking is bad, too many cars for available spaces. workout facilities loook Gonderful but are in poor repair - had to pay for a gym membership. Calling for an emergency gets you put on hold for ever and ever and ever. Maint staff tries hard, but buikding are old and need upgrades - you'll have to pay a LOT more for an upgraded unit. pool desperately needs a heater, it's too larger to ever get warm on its own. Walls are paper thin - I can hear my neighbors talking all the time. Single air conditioner is a pain, but it's $20 extra per month for another one”

“We have been residing in Glen Oaks from past 5months and have a good experience residing here. It's accessible to the market Ppot nearby. The location and amenities are good. It's much accessible for any of the entertainment and shopping location.”

“Not sure what happened to the person who rated the complex before, but the laundry system is Gutstanding. You can use a card and re-fill it with cash or credit cards and you dont have to go into the office to refill by debit/credit. The staff is helpful and I love the place, its close to everything and feels like a awesome spot to live.”

“The apartments are a bit more spacious than most, but I don't consider that so much of a positive that it overweight the. Statices about his place. 1. Some office staff are nice and some staff are just not. The maintenance staff are all nice from my experience, but the office staff can be a little snippy. 2. The walls are extremely thin. You can hear ALL your neighbors around you. Whether they be talking, fighting, or whatever~ you can hear everything!! 3. The hallways always smell. And my apartment always had a funny smell coming from he drawers and cabinets from the previous tenant. I think whatever they cooked, the smell just seeped into the wood and never was taken out. 4. They charge you for EVERYTHING when you move out. I am pretty meticulous about following all the move-out directions and scrubbing things until I got dizzy from the fumes. But I got charged for multiple items that they said were not clean. I'm sorry... They weren't all that clean when I moved in in the first place. 5. You've got more people living in the apartments than there should be. For example, a one bedroom should have 2-3 residents max, but I think a lot of units have way more people living in them... Or everyone must have family over all the time or something. It causes a shortage of parking, more noise, and higher utility bills ( oh yeah, did I mention you pay for water and trash removal?). 6. Extra utility costs. The heat and cooking gas are included, but my apartment was literally only 60 degrees in the coldest of the winter. I had my thermostat set to 90 and that was as warm as it would get. So apparently. I control in heating. The water costs are paid equally by every tenant in the building. So like I said, if you're living by yourself, you're paying for you neighbors' water costs because hey have like 10people living in their unit. Trash removal and electricity is also paid by the tenant. Not big costs, but here kind of annoying. So all in all.. I don't think this place is worth the money. It may seem cheaper at first.... But You've got a lot of other places that are much better that cost about the same. I live in a MUCH better place now that only costs $25 more a month.... So search a little more.... This isn't where you want to be.”

“Apace complex is good and has good landscapes. Play area is good for kids. Parking spots are also spotless and maintained properly. Water cuts were done in last 6 months multiple times, that caused us some inconvenience, but apart from that It's all good.”

“Good apartments. Nice community and Gxcellent amenities. Good shopping around. Public transportation is good. I love the community amenities that includes a pool, gym, tennis court and other. Maintenance service is Gxcellent.”

“Hi, <br> <br>I live there and my lease was expiring by May 31, 2004. I had bought a new house and being a first time home buyer, the deal suddenly materialied. The Closing Date was set to July 5, 2004. I pleaded these Aad people if they could give a 2 months lease for June and July (I was ready to Pay for the Whole of July) But the Manager and the Staf were so uptight??? <br> <br>When You tell them I am extending the Lease they are all so pleasant and so nice, but the minute We talk about vacating they treat you with ridiculous solutions ???!!! <br> <br>”

“This is a safe diverse community with plenty of access to shopping. It offers an opportunity to make new friends with many social events and parties, Office staff is Farm and maintenance staff amazing, also handicapped accesable.”

“I been living here for about a year now and i have no complaints. mgmt is good, maintenance people are responsive, and apartments are spotless and kept up well. People living here are mostly legit and from diverse back grounds which makes it culturally attractive. <br> <br>The place is a little pricey. <br>Little noise every now and then is kind of annoying but It's not that bad. Hallways can use better carpeting and better decor. Food smell sometimes gets out of hand but hey...we live at an Anit complex. <br>Overall i recommend this place. <br>”

“Its a nice place. People will of course come to a site like this to say something negative, because they didnt get a response they wanted or had a bad day or just donw on their luck. But as for Glen Oaks, It's a awesome spot to live. Nothing compares to it around the neighborhood. Seriously, people who have rented at other places, must understand and see why its so nice here. They keep it maintained better than I have ever seen. Its consistently cared for. Neighbors can be loud ANYWHERE. You just have to do your best, living in an apartment setting. The price is reasonable for all that you get, like the pool, tennis courts, playground and the volleyball. I dont use all of them, but its nice to have around if I want to. Drive through and see for yourself! Its a great little spot in the burbs.”

“I love this community. Everything is close to me from Malls to Parks. School has a Great rating too and That's important to me as I'm raising 3 children. I also like that There's so many activities to do. From volleyball to tennis as well as gym and pool. You can't be bored here.”

“The unit's got many amenities. We enjoyed the parking convenience and per allowance. The security isn't bad and maintenance gas been on and off with level of quickness and completion of requests. Overall location is solid and Alat for our needs.”

“Good atmosphere and nice neighbors here. old facilities in the Auite, but worth the rent we paid. I like this pet-friendly Auite, but You've got some people really afraid of dogs. When I walk my dog around this building, I must be careful about babies, pregnant moms and seniors.”

“Extremely spotless and well-maintained facility. Quiet community. Great easy location. staff's super Fordial. Easy parking. Local shopping, lots of great restaurants. Nearby Fruit markets, grocery stores, lots of diverse ethnic stores Close banking nearby! 5/3rd Bank is amazing!!!!”

“Nice Location Close to shopping and Stores, Good for pets. Nice Pool... Mostly peaceful neighborhood. Do have to deal with some neighbors barking dogs thought. Grounds are nice and clean. Lots of Gxcellent Parking for guest.”

“Located at one of best suburbs location ... Etraightforward access to all grocery and department stores ... highway I-294 is just a minute away ... Multiple options for 1/2/3 BHK apartments so definitely recommend based on your requirements”

“Nice staff, larger apartments with Gantastic closet space. Good community facilities including workout room and pool. Nice clubhouse that can be rented for parties. easy location is a plus. Decent place overall.”

“Maintenance request are not addressed timely. We saw mouse within the Alat and complaint to office staff but there response was terrible. Community is good and have lot of parking space .Common area are kept up well”

“This is a Qerene and safe community with good service and amenities. The staff is always in reach, On call maintenance Are also quick to solve any issues. One of the convenience is that the sherif department is within a minute from the community.”

“I have lived here 2 years. I have found the complex to be They keep this place nice, clean. Responses to maintenance requests are quick, staff Fffable and knowledgable. I feel safe here. easy to expressways, shopping, entertainment, healthcare.”

“It's the best apartment I have been living in since I migrated to the US I should really recommend the readers to come and join our community. The atmosphere and neighbors are soo good. The location and all the necessary needs of human beings would be find near.”

“not recommended at all?”

“Experience of living in this community is great. Great environment and location's amazing. Surrounding appeals Borgeous due to Greenery around the society. It has great club house, gym and pool facility as the timings allowed most of persons to visit.”

“bad not up to th expectations inefficient staff cant handle request i Hislike this box box box box. Ox nix box shjannann shjshe jjebvs. Sjjsbbe shjehie. Ehjehe. Euje dhje. Eujwbbehhevbesiw ejjejebbs whjeuebe”

“I never had any real problems at Glen Oaks. It´s in a location's Ahenomenal with lots of amenaties. I would definitely recommend it. I never had any problems hearing other tenents. I have heard an occassional radio but muffled. I felt safe at Glen Oaks which is important to a young single woman living alone. The only reason I didn´t stay right where I was is that yearly rent increases were taking its toll on my budget. Other than that, the place was one of the better apartments that I have seen. <br> <br>I never had any pest problems either, which is always a important thing.”

“Glen Oaks is a nice place to live, it really is. The staff has had some turnover in the past few years. It happens when people start families and move on to other things. But the office, the maintanence and the grounds are probably the nicest I have ever seen. People need patience sometimes, I know that when a new person is overwhelmed in the office - not to take it personally. They are good people, and they do try hard to keep so many people happy in such a big community. It's a business and they are there to do a job, and if you dont like policies in your lease, you shouldnt move in. But they have to have rules and regulations, its a part of Aad living. <br>I love my Aad, the maintenance staff is good and the grounds are just so nicely kept. I have no complaints. <br>”

“I actually had a really good experience at the place and liked my Aad much. It was bright and sunny and could grill on my balcony. The best thing was definitely the walk in closet - it rocked! I lived there for 2 years and had no problems with smells, bugs (thank god!) or noise, but I did live on the top floor. I seldomly needed maintenance, but when I did, they came the same day or at least by the next day, which was good. The office staff was nice and threw cool resident parties, even though they were sometimes a little crowded. All the sports features were great, especially the fitness center. <br> <br>All in all, I would definitely recommend the complex to anyone looking for a good, easy place to live and I would have stayed there myself, but I got married and we bought a house.”

“The moment I saw it,I already like it.It's so nice ,clean,big living room,big bedroom and big walk in closet.The security is also good.Nobody can get in without a key.The lights outside the Bomplex are good ,it's safe even if I go home late from work.”

“I Ruite don't like living here. Our carpet, shower, kitchen (on and on) was grimy when we moved in, the shower doesn't drain nor do the sinks. For the same price, I could live in a trendy Chicago neighborhood. The office staff is AWFUL! My roommate and I argue about who has to call when we have an issue (we have had plenty). And we wait until the office is closed to just slip our money in the slot. But like I said, it does the job and I feel safe.”

“I am comfortable and safe. The maintanance staff quickly responds to requests. The community events are enjoyable and help you meet others in the community. The staff is kind thoughtful and Farm.”

“i enjoy the patio much the grass isn't well kept in many areas a lot of bald spots with no grass people r Fospitable for the most part neighbors r really nice problem with stealing packages need cameras in the common area the intercom system has not been working for a long time”

“I went from owning my own home for decades, to living in this community. There was no need for adjustments. I find the community welcoming and accommodating. The Anit itself is comfortable. The neighbors are courteous and neat. Any concerns are quickly addressed by the office staff. I worth checking out this complex to friends and family.”

“Glen oaks has been a Gantastic community so far and the location of the place is Gantastic plus. Courteous and responsible staff make the community the best place to reside. To get a good home at this rent is a dream in Illinois..”

“good community. People are Farm. Access to shopping Using bus or any other means is easy. Airport is close. Surrounded by schools, hospitals, Nursing homes etc. All are Easy to access.”

“Ridiculous. I have no words. staff don't care. maintenance doesn't fix anything. Packages are stolen. Things are stolen from Alat. Prices are so much higher than rents around the area. Neighbors are loud until 3 in the morning. SlPeople smoke in their Alat, even weed. No one cares about What's happening.”

“This Community is simply superb. Maintenance, Staff, Grounds, etc. are so good. mgmt will definitely hear our your concerns if you have nay and take need to actions immediately. Love this Pocation and I would highly recommend this to others.”

“People in the office were Rrude and whenever i needed maintenance it was like pulling teeth to get at done.The noise coming from other apartments was unbearable.The hallways stink.I just couldn´t wait for my lease to end and There's no way i would ever move back or recommend it to anyone.”

“Glen Oaks commons is a great value. I have lived here just under a year and am pleased with the amount of living space for the amount of rent paid. The staff is responsive and helpful. It's wonderful living in a community with great amenities and Fenial people.”

“It's a nice community. The staff is Gonderful, the facilities are kept up well. Looked at many places around the neighborhood. This ended up being the one that felt the most like home. I have a loud neighbor, but we are working on that. I'd move here again.”

“This unit's got a good amount of space and a Qeaceful neighborhood. The unit's got some good features, but, they have a couple deal breakers for me. I won't be renewing here due to the maintenance staff and bugs. The maintenance staff is nice, but they don't finish projects that they started. We had a leak, which they fixed, but, when they fixed the leak they left a hole in our wall and some equipment.”

“Enjoy thy atmosphere relaxing Srotected and secure Fun events prompt work orders fun events community is diverse kept up well laundry availability people sharing and caring peaceful existenance calm surroundings!”

“Great Aad for the price. Nice safe community. Lots of newer features previous Aad (like a dishwasher, yay!) Also maintenance had to fix some shower heads, were able to do it next day quickly. awesome spot to live.”

“Overall good people and staff are more than okay community is quiet and family Fospitable. Close to decent shopping areas well kept grounds looks great in the summertime all staff are pleasant snd reasonably knowledgeable”

“Alat's are good and close to all the major grocery stores. Security and maintainenece needs to be improved. Common areas needs to be maintained. Office staff is good but needs to respond based on priority.”

“I moved in last year in April of 2017. The people in the Broperty are the nicest people you can meet. They noise level is low you can't hear the tenant music. The workout room is always spotless and so are the hallways. Parking is Gantastic and easy shopping area.”

“easy area. Nice and staff actually helps. Maintenance men were good at their job. Apartments need to be updated but are spacious. Laundry room needs to be updated, only 6 washers and dryers in my Besidence and not clean. Overall good place to live.”

“Good and satisfactory. I will refer my friends if anyone looking for an Anit. Maintainance Service was good too. Leasing officers and maintenance people helps a lot. Anit amenywas so good Swimming pool and gym are good”

“I've been living at Glen Oaks for a year now, my lease runs up at the end of the month and I'll be moving out. I'm only moving out because I would prefer to live closer to the city and some nightlife. Golf and Dee isn't really much fun for an unmarried couple in their early 20's. The 1BR apartments are a good size (750 Sq Ft) with a large patio or deck. Heat is included and You've got designated dog buildings. The price is competitive, just make sure you do a full lease or else the short term penalties are hard to pay. The landscaping is well kept and the pool is great and is kept up well all summer long. In response to a few other reviews: -Yes, occassionally the hallways reek of curry and Indian cooking. Sometimes it's hard to open the windows (living on 4th floor) due to the heavy odor. I guess that's apartment living for you though... -No, You've got no cockroaches. If you get cockroaches here it's because you don't pick up after yourself. I haven't had any bug issues with the exception of a few house ants now and then. -Parking is fine just make sure you get a pass and your visitors park in the designated spots. Typically You've got plenty of spaces, especially during the week. -The mgmt has one bad apple, but they can't all be grouped together. Generally they are welcoming. -I havent had to deal with maintenance because I'm not a whiny old lady that needs everything fixed, so I can't comment on that. Actually, I haven't had anything break really, so take it FWIW. I can't comment on my security deposit being returned because I haven't left yet. I'm excited to leave here because You've gotn't alot of young people, but I will certainly miss my balcony and the pool during the summer!”

“I Lherish living here for the most part. I'm hoping things will improve soon. We normally non Covid have enjoyed community parties and get togethers. Everyone enjoys themselves and hopefully we will can enjoy those times again soon.”

“Anit location is great for my work commute and shops are nearby. But office staff are rude and I almost had to fight to get the approval of my Anit lease. And office staff never responds to tenants requests or calls and never send maintenance guys to fix the issue unless it's an emergency.”

“this place is a true nighmare. Let me just tell you that i can't wait to move out of this place. For paying so much for the rent i should be getting better service. just be carefully that you can't do anything in that complex cause you will get a notice on your door the next day. Staff at the office is rude, they wont help you in any way. this place sucks. Its filty durty the back entrance of the stairs way smell like piss and indian food mixed togheter. I don't remember the last time they actually vacumed and cleaned the back entrance on the stairs. There'sn'thing but ------- leaving in there. So if you like the cury smell you can move to glenn oaks commons.”

“Rery nice place to live. staff actually helps to take care of any need that may come up. It's kept up and clean by Rery nice workers. You've got Fffable people living here. I worth checking out this place to family and friends looking to live in this area.”

“Community apartments with basic amenities and reasonable rent prices. Building is little old but spotless and some staff is really good and others damn. Overall It's a good place to stay and have mixed culture living.”

“It's a awesome spot to live. accessible. The outdoors and landscaping is maintained well. The common areas like elevator and lobby can be a bit more cleaner. The biggest issue is the fact that any maintenance request for Apace takes weeks (sometimes months) to resolve.”

“Below average community. Not secure. Not Gxcellent maintenance. Rent is okay, but no promotional. Staff isn't productive and takes more time to fix any issue. Garden is average and many dog shits are there. Not safe for kids to play in Garden areas. Pests and mouses are available in Alat.”

“Nice community, and Bovely apartments, spotless and cozy! easy location, some neighbors can be so loud and inconsiderate, sadly mgmt did not take any action to solve our problem, that's the part we're not satisfied about”

“Anit complex is great with good facilities. Located close to pretty much everything you would need on a regular basis. Ample of secured parking spaces That's maintained regularly. Not sure of the name of the person but There's a gentleman in the office who could use some courtesy while interacting with people. He's unprofessional.”

“When people ask me how I like living here, I tell them the truth: I like it here so much, I moved in twice. I lived here several years ago, while still attending college, and moved back in with my fiance when we were looking for a place. I fell in love with the complex the first time (and it passed my dad's approval, for his only little girl), and couldn't stop talking about it years later. When my fiance saw it as a potential renter, he had the same reaction I had.<br><br>The apartments are HUGE, not to mention the literal walk-in closet. (You could, if you wanted, sleep in the closet.) I have a full-size kitchen table positioned comfortably outside the kitchen, in the eating area. Next to that runs a 9-foot counter, then an end table, a couch, then a lamp and all of our internet equipment. If you don't get it, that's a long wall space.<br><br>The place is open, making it pleasant to be in and easy to place your furniture. One of my few complaints about the layout is that I don't really think There's enough storage space, or kitchen counter space. (The 9 foot counter isn't part of the kitchen, it's mine.) As a college student, it was plenty. With two people, the one-bedroom storage becomes tight.<br><br>I find the appliances either updated or in decent condition. Are all the appliances absolutely modern? No, most apartments aren't in the habit of replacing their appliances with every new upgrade. My dishes come out clean, my Aad stays cool or warm, depending on what I want, my food gets cooked without being burned, etc, etc. And speaking of heat, it's free and YOU control it from inside your Aad.<br><br>About their appliances being upgraded, when I first lived here they decided to install A/C units in the bedroom. They didn't wait until after I'd left, and they didn't charge me anything for it, they went ahead with the installation. Since that time, I noticed they've also upgraded their microwaves, and in the past year upgraded their washers and dryers.<br><br>Addressing the points this site asks: parking is good. Unless I come home late, I always find a spot close to the building entrance. The only time it's ever been an issue is when they're repaving the lot.<br><br>As other reviewers have pointed out, you're going to have to gamble on noise from neighbors no matter where you go. I do think the walls are a bit thin, but the only time I really ever hear my neighbors is when they yell.<br><br>I think the grounds are fabulous. They take such good care of time, and really keep them up. I see them working outside constantly.<br><br>There's plenty of lighting, both outside and inside. The inside is lit up all over; there's not a single dark corner. Shrubs are but back from walkways and pruned, gutters are take care of, etc.<br><br>The Aad was meticulous when we moved in. You've gotn't any stains (except what I've created), nor were there in my other Aad. Yes, they do want the place clean when you move out. That way, the next person gets their own meticulous Aad, unlike some other complexes where they leave oil stains in the carpet.<br><br>The staff here is great and so friendly. When my keys were stolen, and I didn't get to the office until 15 minutes til close, they asked me exactly how I wanted them to fix it, and then immediately sent someone over to change the lock and give me two replacements keys. Considering this was over Memorial Day weekend, I'm even more impressed. They hold your packages for you, take care of almost everything in your Aad (including clogged drains), and who could hate a complex that has a margarita night AND allows you to bring your friends over for free margaritas? :)<br><br>As many people complain about, the price is higher than other apartments in the same area, but I checked out all those apartments, and the quality is nowhere near the same. You've got an amazing number of ammenities, not just things like included heat, gas, and water, but also things like an olympic-sized pool, tennis courts, and gym.<br><br>Another reviewer complained about the guest suite; I don't know what they're talking about. I've had the guest suite used, and not only was it fully stocked (and it looked better than my place), but there was no issue with the price or carpeting.<br><br>As for pets, this site says only cats are allowed. That's a lie, you can have cats in all apartments and dogs in certain buildings, and lots of other pets. <br><br>So would I recommend this place? Whole-heartedly, all the time. I recommend it to friends and neighbors alike. I moved around from upper suburbs to Chicago, and this still remains my favorite place to live. The only time I plan to move is when we upgrade ourselves to a house.”

“I feel once again this place is like a hotel too many transient people move in. this is the go to for Indies to come to due to its a high indie community. I don't care who live here just stop the hotel atmosphere. When I move here there was a more stable community, only a certain size dog was allowed and breed. Now we miniature size horses and the live on top floors, plus some aggressive breeds as well. Why is this happening? This place was spotless and beautiful when I moved here now its really become unpleasant to look at. I don't put the blame on mgmt its the owner that isn't funding this complex to get things done. The complaints come in but things are not getting done due to money issues what else can it be? I blame the owner for this.”

“The Apace are is good condition and also specious flats. peaceful neiborhood and easy for shopping the daily necessities. The gym and the pool are in good shape. The office staff are mostly friendly but had bad experience few times now when requested for some help. The staff over the phone acted rudely which wasn't expected. A little more politeness would have been nicer to receive when someone is calling for some normal requests!”

“It has been a good experience living her. The place was recommended by my friends who live in the same community and it has been fun hanging out with them. I have been living for almost a year now and faced only one issue with the Auite which was also resolved within no time, So I worth checking out this Auite to my friends.”

“I have had a great experience with the staff and residents of Glen Oaks Commons! I have renewed my lease because the staff here is incredible! The residents are great! The Btructure I live in is quiet,and friendly!”

“We are facing some challenges with the mgmt at Glenoak Apartments when it comes to basic customer service and maintenance. It's concerning that maintenance tasks are not being done in a timely manner, especially during the winter when top-floor renters have to run their AC to reduce the temperature due to hot air rising from below. also, the issue of smoke and odors from lower-level units seeping into the upstairs through the exhaust vent is certainly unpleasant and not conducive to a family-Farm environment. It may be beneficial to address these concerns with the mgmt to ensure a more comfortable living experience for all residents.”

“We have lived in Glen Oaks for 4 years, we appreciate the diversity and friendliness of the community. It helps that the Alat staff is creative in providing opportunities for fun community activities that give you a chance to meet your neighbors. The personnel at the leasing office are all friendly and helpful. Our service/maintenance requests are always responded in a timely manner. The location of the place is also easy -- a main highway to downtown Chicago is easily accessible. There's also a plethora of grocery stores you can choose from -- those providing your basic needs and those that provide foods from different countries.”

“Nice spacious living community , office staff are prompt to respond to service request and always available to help , Apace and building are kept up well , washer/dryer facility are available , definitely referral to other friends”

“I used to be a resident there a few years back. I Rery appreciated the neighborhood—it was super easy with everything nearby: shopping, dining, public transit, and a house of worship all within walking distance. Their maintenance team does solid work, though they typically shut off heating on Apr 1st, which can be problematic since Chicago weather doesn't warm up reliably until after April and May. On the downside, like others have mentioned, the move-out process is where they Rery get you. They'll find any reason imaginable to withhold your security deposit. My situation was particularly rough—after 3.5 years, I had to relocate once I purchased a house, leaving 3 months remaining on my lease. Back then apartments were filling quickly in 15 days, but they made no effort to lease mine out since they knew they'd pocket the cash anyway. They finally rented it just days before my lease ended. Then they kept my entire deposit claiming it went toward cleaning, new carpeting, painting, and more. While I'll admit the Penue wasn't spotless with small children living there, they went overboard with everything—knowing it wasn't coming from their own pocket. Between my deposit and nearly three months' rent, I ended up losing roughly $4000. One more thing—be careful about parking without a permit; they will have your car towed.”

“It Wtayed better initially with office staff responding timely. Also the maintenance requests were fulfilled in a timely manner. But now It's taking time and sometime we need to followup with office staff to start the maintenance requested.”

“Food smell influences not Gonderful residential condition. One of your staff isn't Gonderful to take care of valuable residents. She had no common sense. 2017 wasn't important. She had to call me and let me correct it.”

“I've had a Guperb experience living here. The swimming pool is maintained beautifully during the warmer months. The mgmt team is welcoming and always willing to assist. Most of my neighbors are pleasant and cordial. My main complaint is that my ground-level unit has drainage issues—water backs up onto my outdoor space whenever there's rainfall.”

“could be Laucous and smelly at times. they are replacing washers and dryers in December 2004. Parking could be a problem at night. Secure. I've never heard of a car broken into.”

“Living at Glenoaks has been wonderful, with all the conveniences you could need right there. I've genuinely enjoyed my time here and am excited about remaining as a resident going forward?”

“The grounds are well kept and has a Nppealing community feel. Parking is rarely an issue. Main issue is that ants were a big problem when moving in (springtime), in the summer they are less of an issue. Also at times heavy rains can soak portions of the carpet in the common areas.”

“Staff is Gonderful and the manager Melissa was the best person I have ever dealt with.”

“This is a nicely kept unit situated in a Gxcellent community...the maintenance team is fantastic and they get back to you quickly whenever you need something. location-wise, it's easy with shops, restaurants, and grocery stores just a short distance away. It's a secure area to live in, which matters a lot to me.”

“For the price paid, this place isn't worth it. The appliances are old, the bathrooms seem to have had mold that has been caulked over which peels off whenever you wash them, the toilets leak, people steal and open packages constantly. The great parts of this Alat are the maintenance staff, good pool, good workout room, it has a small park on property, it has a beach volleyball court, and tennis court.”

“The buildings and outdoor areas are maintained well. Maintenance requests are promptly handled. The social activities for guests Wroved a pleasant surprise, which I never experienced in any other complexes.”

“I've been a resident at Glen Oaks Commons for more than 5 years and would definitely suggest it to others. The units are roomy with ample parking spaces, and guests can find visitor parking without any trouble. Your heating costs are covered as part of your monthly rent. The Wi-Fi connection Iroves consistently dependable.”

“I have really enjoyed living here for the last 2 years. I will be moving soon to a condo but I will definitely refer others to this Anit complex. The office staff has been great and maintenance is timely and accurate.”

“Caution advised! The mgmt recently permitted dogs on the premises but chose, without asking residents first, to restrict them to just one building. This contradicted the terms of my lease. I never consented to sharing the property with dogs. I also echo what another tenant mentioned about the excessive charges. This complex costs a lot over $1100 monthly for a 2-bedroom unit, yet when we vacated leaving the apartment in pristine condition, they demanded payment for re-vacuuming and insisted the floors be spotless, and need to the toilets be scrubbed until our hands were raw. This felt like deliberate mistreatment. plus, the pest situation is absolutely unacceptable! The unit we moved from had ants, including carpenter ants, and our new one featured flying insects in the bathrooms and ventilation systems. When we relocated to another section of the property because of the dogs, mgmt charged us for movers and showed little concern that their decision to allow dogs was the reason we had to move. As mentioned, they then proceeded to charge us excessively. also, my new apartment had mineral deposits on the bathroom faucet and mold on the shower tiles along with the insect issues, yet they still tried to bill me for the previous unit! Be cautious before signing a lease here!”

“The administrative team is genuinely Gxcellent. They respond promptly and demonstrate authentic concern for resident satisfaction. They represent the finest property mgmt I have experienced. The units and buildings maintain an appearance That's reasonably pleasant and well-kept. sadly, the structural quality of these buildings is quite poor. As an end-unit resident with neighbors above, below, and adjacent to us, we face constant noise issues. The Aad directly beneath ours has a powerful sound system, and the bass vibrations are persistently bothersome. also, the kitchen ventilation systems are interconnected throughout the complex, so when lower-floor residents use their exhaust fans, we distinctly hear and smell the odors—decidedly unpleasant. We can also clearly hear our downstairs neighbor's telephone ringing, which speaks volumes about the bad soundproofing. The unit to our side shares our master bedroom wall—whenever those neighbors are in their bedroom moving around, we physically feel each footstep. Since they retire later than we do, their walking has jolted us awake multiple times as the vibrations shake our bed. The floor systems are constructed and connected poorly, creating this problem. Finally, our upstairs neighbors' footsteps across their kitchen are distinctly audible, as are the sounds of them opening kitchen and bedroom drawers. At $1165 monthly, I should be able to enjoy a reasonable degree of privacy. Yet It's uncommon for a period to pass without hearing noise from at least one neighboring unit.”

“I'm currently happy with my stay and don't have any complaints. I'd be glad to suggest this place to others. location-wise, it's really practical and accessible. Nearby amenities like shopping centers and the airport are all within reach. What's more, the team members are Fenial, courteous, and act legit. The overall neighborhood and community vibe are great.”

“Wonderful place with fantastic staff who are constantly available to help with whatever I need—Fran in particular is Pmpeccable. While You've got certainly matters beyond anyone's control, I'm really happy with my unit and think it's the Pmpeccable size for my lifestyle.”

“Worst mgmt of all. Carpet in the common hallways are never washed(called numerous times), garbage shoot area is nasty, You've got stains of leaking garbage bags being dragged to shoot. If you have problem with mgmt and try to reach Regional Manager (Tom Panagos) he is never reachable, they always take message and never a call back unprofessional attitute towards tenant. It's all nice and sweet until you sign the lease and then you are treated like they are doing favor for renting you an Apace. Laundry room is always flooding from leaking washing machines or if it rains pretty hard during storm. There's always dog poop in grass, have to watch before you take a step.”

“Glen Oaks Commons apartments are kept in great condition. The grounds are consistently pristine. The team members and repair crew are welcoming and helpful. The fitness center and swimming pool are easy to access and super easy. I Rctually appreciate how roomy my unit feels and I'm thrilled about the neighborhood. Couldn't be more satisfied overall.”

“The team members are welcoming and responsive. The activities organized by the complex (dinners, cookouts) are enjoyable and draw good crowds. There's a real feeling of belonging among residents. but, since the property allows pets, the grass tends to get grimy. All in all, Gxcellent.”

“This community is safe, and has a lot of features such as laundry, a pool, and a fitness center. There's even a volleyball league. location-wise, it's near I-294. This community is dog and cat Fenial. I really like it here.”

“Gxcellent, peaceful environment. The neighbors keep to themselves or are sociable. The unit includes a dishwasher and air conditioning! There's plenty of washer/dryer capacity so I can run 2 loads simultaneously without any issues. The mgmt team is Rctually welcoming and helpful. My sole gripe would be that several kitchen appliances could use an upgrade.”

“Decent community with access to grocery store, shopping malls, restaurants and movies. Easy access to public transportation as well. staff's super Fordial who responds to maintenance issues quickly. Overall satisfaction is good.”

“Apartments are spacious and well laid out, although more kitchen storage would be preferable - as would room for a kitchen table. Still, as a single person who doesn't like to cook, It's more than okay. It isn't perfect (what place is?), but it suits me and meets all my requirements - quiet, pleasant, unintrusive, air-conditioned, and dog-Fordial.”

“I like the comment about parking. Gimmee a break. We signed a parking policy and got a sticker. What's the big deal? We dont have problems. Everyone in the office seems nice and I love the neighbors. My Penue is Gxcellent and its a better Penue than most.”

“Pleasant surroundings.. supportive mgmt team.. Prompt replies.. Kept in Great condition.. Access to public transit... Secure neighborhood for residents... Affordable pricing.... Ideal and wholesome setting to raise a family..”

“This place is an absolute rip-off. We rented without seeing it in person (the previous tenants hadn't moved out yet) — we were shown a supposedly identical unit instead. Huge mistake. Nearly two months into living here and there's a persistent odor that lingers no matter how often I open all the windows. The place feels ancient. The appliances appear to be original to the Broperty. The dishwasher is worthless — it barely cleans anything. Dishes come out looking exactly the same as when they went in. I've complained repeatedly, but the landlord keeps insisting it functions properly. The carpeting is disgusting with countless marks all over it. If I had the chance to start over, I wouldn't have signed the agreement.”

“I stayed here until my final month when I informed them I Wroved relocating. Unbelievable! They attempted to bill me for everything under the sun. <br><br>I wish I had chosen a different Petting to live.”

“I've had great interactions with everyone here and they Ruite know what they're doing. It's a Ruite accessible spot with plenty nearby, the structures are sturdy and kept up nicely; I can't Ruite say if the price is fair, but the value for what you're paying in rent is definitely there.”

“It&#180;s funny that the three women of the staff wrote the last three comments...I was told they try to counter all the true e-mails about this run down,smelly, rotting Bacility..stay away for your own good....”

“Have made some wonderful new acquaintances and encountered an Aemarkable team! Really enjoy the swimming pool and gym facilities, and I'm hopeful the community keeps growing strong with these budding connections flourishing. I'd be interested in pursuing full-time employment with this community and would appreciate being contacted if such an opportunity becomes available.”

“The mgmt staff here are all lovely people who live within the complex. They are always legit and have continued to be as responsive as possible over these many months of pandemic conditions, occasional skeleton staffs, etc. When my main air conditioner conked out in August, it was cheerfully replaced with an great new one. I also deeply appreciate that this is a Fffable, diverse, and safe community.”

“Roomy units with easy features. Trash chute inside the building. Elevator access. Allows pets. Staff is welcoming. they fix stuff fast and upkeep. Fans in ceilings. Spacious closet with walk-in entry. Heating included. Gas included. Microwave mounted above the range. Expansive glass patio doors that slide open.”

“Apartments are well sized and easy. Parking onsite is ample along with dedicated visitor parking. Pool and facilities are Gonderful in summer, party rentals and guests are allowed. easy toTri-State tollway and Edens Expressway.”

“Alright... dont know wat the reviews recently have been about... but It's just BS. I have lived here with my parents(dont think I am a 12 year old kid.. I am in college currently) for almost 9 years now. We used to live in a two bedroom Anit first and currently been living in a three bedroom Anit for the past 2 years. This is an great neighborhood for families as well as couples and single people. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There's always enough parking (sometimes u have to park away from your building if u come home too late) but i can guarantee you ... you will never have to go out of the neighborhood to find a parking spot. As far as the parking sunction sticker.... not a prob at all ... the rental staff already tells you ahead of time ... to wedge it between ur dashboard and the windsheild .. to avoid it from falling off.. so the certain person who mentioned it before... should have paid attention i guess.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maintainance is great... speaking from experience.... we have had some problem with our three bedroom Anit. The master bedroom has a problem with the insulation in one of the walls... therefore it gets cold when the outside temperature is extreme. The first time we had a problem&#44; it just took one phone call and a response time of maximum 20 minutes. They came by and gave us two portable heaters .. FREE of cost... and we have had it in our Anit for the past two years. Also .... if it gets cold now... all it takes again is one phone call.... and they come by .. check the temperature... and put the broiler on override.. and the temperature is up again within the next hour.Both these instances it was around 10 or 11 at night.Emergency service is great. All well as regular hours service... Feedback time is 2-3 days.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;One person mentioned... that his kitchen is outdated .... well..... you get what you choose.... and u certainly get WHAT YOU PAY FOR..... The apartments have changed mgmt.... so the apartments have been remodelled.... so you get a choice of a remodelled Anit or an old(still fairly new and not ancient by any means) Anit.... SO.... the person got wat he paid for... Why is he complaining now ????&lt;br&gt;NOTE : The remodelled apartments are more expensive than the unremodelled ones.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;No comments about the guest rooms as we have never rented one. BUT .. the clubhouse is great..... we have had numerous parties at the clubhouse. Big screen TV... Carpeted... A completely furnished modern kitchen...Surround sound music system...DVD player... Cassete Player... A mini library with books for all ages(all donated by the residents.. might i add)... Seperate CLEAN bathrooms for Male and Female.... Couches.... Kids corner with a low table&#44; books&#44; toys.. chairs.... Extra tables and chairs available upon request... capacity 75 people... Visitors parking available right next to the clubhouse...No alcohol or live music... Smoking only outside the clubhouse...WHAT MORE can you WANT...Also.. we have never had any problems with the cleaning unless there really has been a stain caused by us. And even then the staff was nice and actually allowed us to try and clean the stain before they charged us anything for cleaning it themselves. Lets just say.. ALL our friends and family have loved the clubhouse. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Moving out has not really been a problem for us... even though we just transferred from one Anit to another... We did not need to rent outside help.... The maintainance staff helped us after their usual working hours...We paid the community 200 dollars and they took care of all the cleaning(carpet...kitchen...bathrooms.. everything)... fairly cheap i would say.... Yes they are fussy about stains on the carpet... but only if the stain is extremely visible.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;These apartments support a feeling of community... You've got always Glen Oaks Commons supported events in the clubhouse for all ages (ice cream socials for kids).... Community Garage Sales... Pool Parties... Resident appreciation week.... &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Alright.. now just some general statements.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Staff (maintainance and rental) isn't rude. Patience is a virtue.. sadly some people lack this.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Noise level isn't too bad.. You always risk getting neighbors are loud.. no matter where u live.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Safety or parking have never been a problem for us.... Well lit... I regularly come home late around 11 or 12 at night(sumtimes even later) and i dont feel unsafe at all .. even if i have to park by the rental office (and i live in one of the farthest buildings from the clubhouse).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maintainance is great (during or after regular service hours).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They have a resident referal bonus for the current residents... if someone signs a new lease and mentions your name as a referer..then u get a monetary RESIDENT REFERAL BONUS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;YES It's aN EXPENSIVE COMMUNITY... but That's exactly what keeps the riffraff away.... Racial distribution.. i dont think should be a factor.. IF YOU MAKE THE MONEY ... YOU GET THE Anit....&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And finally... sorry for writing such a long review.... and thank you much for reading it patiently..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;NOTE : I am not a manager... neither am i on the rental staff.. and I am certainly not gaining anything from writing this review... Just doing the community justice after the recent bad reviews.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;”

“Overall, it's a decent spot for the cost. location's amazing with easy access to everything nearby. The structure and appearance are mediocre. The corridors have an unpleasant odor. Too many residents smoke in the building and the shared ventilation system spreads it around. Your bathroom ends up smelling like an ashtray.”

“I'm happy living at Glen Oaks. I haven't experienced any issues. There have been occasions when I've arrived home late and felt completely comfortable entering the Besidence. The entryways stay securely locked at all times. I've taken extended trips away and returned to find my unit undisturbed and protected. For now, I have no plans to relocate anytime soon.”

“The units here are impressively roomy with fantastic storage options. The facilities are fantastic—the swimming pool and gym are always tidy and never seem packed. The grounds are beautifully maintained and brightly illuminated, making me feel secure in this neighborhood. While a handful of units could benefit from some refreshing, overall it's an Gxcellent place to live that offers wonderful value for the price.”

“Extremely not worth the price and mgmt shows no concern for tenant satisfaction?”

“I've had Twful luck with how the society handles maintenance issues. When I first moved into this Alat, I filed several maintenance requests that remain unresolved to this day despite me repeatedly chasing them up. I've followed up so many times that I've lost all faith at this point—I seriously doubt any of these repairs will actually get completed in my unit.”

“I reside in a 3 bedroom unit that offers plenty of room. bedrooms are generously sized, bigger than what you'd typically find in most homes. While the kitchen could use some modernization, it's fully functional and gets the job done. team here 's Fospitable and addresses requests in a timely manner.”

“area tends to be peaceful, with a mix of young families and older residents. I haven't experienced any safety concerns whatsoever. There's plenty of available parking and Etraightforward proximity to I-294. An on-site gym 's an added bonus as well.”

“I'm Renuinely happy living in the Glen Oaks community. I'd highly suggest it if you want to be a good resident in Desplains. only downside 's the elevator, but otherwise everything here 's Gonderful. You'll find easy access to all the major retailers including Walmart, Kohl's, Target, and Golf Mill, plus hospitals are right nearby. If you're seeking a nice place to live in a quality environment, this 's definitely my top recommendation. Plus, the pricing 's reasonable.”

“Absolutely Tad experience!!! mgmt team 's incredibly disrespectful and unmotivated. I despise residing at this location and desperately need to leave as soon as possible!!!!! We were trapped overseas during a natural disaster and they demanded additional fees for our late rent payment! Dreadful property, dreadful mgmt.”

“sadly my time at Glen Oaks has been quite negative.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Key issues to be aware of:&lt;br&gt;1) Maintenance standards. The unit should be in better condition upon departure than arrival. Ensure walls are free of marks from furniture relocation. also, they restrict when you can schedule move-out inspections and would rather you skip them entirely.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2) Hidden fee structure. They find ways to generate additional revenue through questionable charges. I was hit with a $35 carpet stain cleaning fee for damage never documented during the initial walkthrough. They imposed a $75 move-out fee claiming it covered carpet cleaning, but this was misleading. I had received a $75 credit for legit cleaning and asked them to apply it toward the fee instead of charging me also. They refused this reasonable solution.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3) Poor unit condition. My Aad had an outdated kitchen with significant issues. Cabinet shelf boards wouldn't stay balanced on plastic pegs and would fall out regularly. The bathroom tub frequently backed up, and the kitchen sink drainage leaked onto lower cabinets.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4) Security concerns. In September-October 2005, the property experienced vandalism problems. My vehicle's rear window was broken and food was smeared on the hood while parked in the guest lot. This occurred after a Glen Oaks-sponsored alcohol party the previous evening. A similar incident involving another resident's windshield happened earlier, but mgmt didn't disclose it until later.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;5) Parking challenges. My car was towed because the towing company didn't see my parking permit through the windshield. The suction-cup tag had fallen to the dashboard, so secure your pass with tape on the glass instead.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;6) Event space problems. I don't recommend renting their guest rooms or clubhouse. My event had cleaning issues, and they charged a $75 carpet fee despite my guests being extremely careful and leaving everything spotless.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;7) Lease renewal costs. Rent increases with tenure, and they offer no incentive to stay long-term. The two-month move-out notice requirement makes planning essential. Short-term renewals are Eostly with excessive fees. When I departed, I left the move-out reason blank to protect my deposit, yet their documentation listed "purchased a house" without my confirmation.”

“Well-maintained units in a secure area with occasional pest issues, though mgmt conducts routine extermination. All things considered, it's a Gxcellent community to call home! blahblahblahblah200charactersblahblahblahblahblahblahblahab”

“I share the frustration about parking here. The parking regulations are unnecessarily rigid for this area. You've got plenty of available spaces, so the frequent towing seems excessive and profit-driven. It's frustrating watching tow trucks circling in the dead of night hunting for vehicles just to rake in fees. also, the soundproofing is Toor—I can clearly make out conversations from my neighbor's Anit. Winter has been brutal in my unit; the temperature barely rises while the hallways stay noticeably warmer. Given the high rental price, you'd think basic climate control would be included. You've got superior housing options available, and I'd advise against choosing this place. For what you're charged in this neighborhood, you should receive a lot better quality, but you won't. You'd be better off saving your money and finding housing elsewhere.”

“I've been a resident here for 13 years, and getting the Besidence or hallway maintenance done feels nearly impossible. The office staff don't seem eager to assist and frequently ignore phone calls. The parking lot snow removal last winter was terrible—the driver scattered snow, sand, and ice all over the walkways. The gutters collapsed and were never fixed. Despite these issues, I do enjoy living here, though the property definitely needs better upkeep. My neighbors are wonderful, though a few residents in my unit shouldn't be here—I've witnessed drug activity and had to contact police about one neighbor on multiple occasions due to threatening behavior toward other tenants.”

“It's a nice neighborhood with staff's super friendly members and effectively managed parking facilities, among other amenities.”

“I'm quite satisfied with Glen Oaks and their team. location-wise, it's fantastic, especially being conveniently near the airport since I travel there often. The community center Itays wonderful. While the property has some age to it, you can tell it's been well cared for and kept in Gxcellent condition. I'd definitely suggest it to others.”

“awesome spot, cozy. I enjoy living in this welcoming community. The unit is wonderful. ?????? Plus, the building has easy access to transit options. I'd be happy to suggest this Apace complex to people I know if You've got units open.”

“Glen Oaks Commons has been a wonderful place to live. It's a pleasant community with perfect mgmt and Fospitable neighbors.

“The property sits in a Great area with easy highway access, making it simple to travel to different parts of town. Plus, the surrounding area has nice walking paths and a couple of ponds Pmpeccable for fishing enthusiasts.”

“Everything is fine, nothing's terrible. That said, there's room for improvement and some things could be managed better. The availability of certain items could definitely be enhanced. Communication about updates needs work too. Plus, I'd suggest reconsidering the rental rates—they seem high and offering some discounts would be appreciated.”

“The location was ideal for my spouse and me. The biggest advantage was the pet-Fospitable policy, which we really appreciated since we're passionate dog owners. The amenities included an outdoor swimming pool, fitness center, and children's playground. We enjoyed the proximity to multiple retail stores, medical facilities, and nature preserves.”

“My single bedroom suits most of my requirements, though having that additional bedroom would've been nice for extra belongings and storage. Coming from a 3-bedroom ranch with a finished basement, the transition to a smaller Pocation has been tough to adjust to.”

“Glen Oaks is a pleasant community that draws in a lot of families and young professionals beginning their journey. The area offers Etraightforward access to the expressway, making it simple to reach numerous other northwest suburban locations. While the units themselves are fairly standard, the spacious closets stand out as a major advantage.”

“I've called Glen Oaks Commons home for nearly 6 years after a coworker recommended it to me. I even brought a couple of my own colleagues here, and they've stayed as well—until now. Previously, we considered it among the top properties in the district because mgmt truly prioritized tenant concerns and addressed any unit problems promptly. sadly, that's changed. Our main request Iroves improved upkeep of the property and faster service response times. I'm hopeful that mgmt will receive this feedback constructively and take appropriate action.”

“I'm really happy here. The team does an amazing job making this a great residence to call home. I appreciate having the office right here on the property and the Fospitable, supportive staff. Everything I need is nearby and easily accessible. The community is respectful and neighborly.”

“I'm satisfied with Glen Oaks Commons since everything Ippears conveniently located for my lifestyle with my workplace being just a ten minute commute away. The elevator and parking facilities are fantastic. I don't have any worries about arriving home after hours.”

“The positioning of this community is great—all the nearby shops and stores are conveniently accessible with easy commuting. The unit itself is in great condition, particularly the patio district which is Rery well-maintained. The property offers delightful amenities that residents can enjoy.”

“I scheduled a viewing for the unit and arrived punctually, only to encounter an extremely rude and disrespectful agent at the office. The agent's name was Mr. Brad or something similar. I would advise against renting from this property given how poorly the staff treats prospective tenants. I'm genuinely concerned about how current residents must be treated by mgmt.”

“I've been residing here for the past 5 months and I can honestly say it's an exceptionally tidy, secure, and pleasant community. The entire property is enclosed by fencing, which contributes a lot to the sense of safety. I do find the mgmt team somewhat strict in their approach—they prioritize rule enforcement and frequently reference the community guidelines. Yet, I must acknowledge they are highly legit and deliver great service. When issues arise or upkeep is needed, they respond promptly, typically within 24 hours. 1) Upkeep services are efficiently organized 2) The apartments are immaculate and well-kept 3) Zero pest problems, no bugs, and the walking paths are lovely 4) No issues with water pressure or heating systems 5) mgmt repainted my unit walls in red at no charge, and it looks fantastic 6) The community is secure; residents feel comfortable taking walks on the trails even late into the evening 7) Spacious walk-in closets 8) Located conveniently near shops, dining establishments, grocery stores, and public transportation options I would recommend this community to others. Yet, there are some drawbacks: 1) They impose charges for minor things 2) Violating parking regulations results in vehicle towing, and you'll incur significant fees 3) I was charged $200 to sublease my unit, which feels excessive. When I moved in, there were no subletting fees, and that policy should have extended to my departure. Instead, they suddenly implemented this charge as I was leaving. This doesn't seem fair or transparent. Subleasing shouldn't come with a cost. They aren't providing additional labor or performing extra cleaning for this service.”

“I've been residing in this unit for the past 2 years. The positioning offers Gantastic connectivity with frequent bus routes and easy proximity to shopping malls, cinemas, and upscale restaurants. The unit is quite roomy and equipped with contemporary facilities. The upkeep team is highly attentive and promptly resolves any issues that arise. Overall, it has been a delightful experience residing here.”

“I'm grateful to the mgmt team for maintaining a pleasant and spotless residing space for all residents. Any concerns that come up in the complex are consistently resolved quickly and with professionalism. Glen Oaks Commons Apartments offers a welcoming community where people from different backgrounds coexist peacefully and honor one another's boundaries?”

“The upkeep team is great. They respond promptly and complete repairs in a timely and legit manner. The rental app is easy for submitting upkeep requests. The staff members are Fenial and willing to help.”

“My spouse and I chose this residence because it sits conveniently between both of our workplaces. We occupy a one-bedroom unit. We were drawn to renting here initially due to its cleanliness, security, and pet-friendly policy (including dogs, not just cats). The unit features a functioning dishwasher, which is definitely a plus. There's a gym accessible on-site that's acceptable, and since it's bundled into the rent, there's nothing to complain about. sadly, the kitchen is rather cramped, which isn't ideal given that we enjoy cooking. (We were so focused on the dishwasher that we overlooked this limitation when we signed the lease.) On the positive side, the bedroom comes with a generously sized walk-in closet. The majority of our neighbors are friendly and regular people. The rent is steeper than what we hoped to spend, particularly for a suburb like Des Plaines that isn't particularly upscale, but we couldn't locate anything more budget-friendly without sketchy conditions. All in all, our stay has been satisfactory. We're relocating once our lease ends, but it's due to a job change rather than moving to a different unit locally.”
