DO NOT MOVE HERE!! This is the absolute worst place on earth you can live. The people living under the bridge have it better than the residents at the Waverly (Apartments from HELL). Every other day you can expect your hot water to be turned off. Instead of the apartment complex manager owning up to the issue he wants to accuse the City of Houston of being the responsible party. They don't even give us notice that the hot water is being turned off. Sometimes it's off for two and three days. When you call maintenance after hours to complain about not having hot water, the response is, "not having hot water is not considered an emergency". The next big issue is the roach infestation!!!! Also, the apartment structure is old and falling apart on the inside and out. They should schedule this property to be demolished and start from scratch, that includes hiring new staff and management!

So this is my second review. My first one was the one below i believe, and it was written a couple of weeks after moving in. Now i have lived in these apartments for about 2 months, so i will list my new pros, cons & other comments/notes. PROS: - My nice big balcony is my favorite chill spot<3 - The outdoor/balcony closet has been very useful. - My apartment stays clean and minimalistic because of all the closets it came with for me to store all of my things that i dont use on a daily basis. - Nobody really bothers me. Like comes up and tries to talk to me.( No nosey neighbors ) CONS: - There are big ugly tree roaches on my balcony at night sometimes and i am terrified of them! - The kids play in the pool all day and all night (even when its closed) and 1 half of the time there aren't even adults around and the other half of the time, the parents just dont give a rats a*s that their children are running around being so loud and obnoxious that i can not study for my COLLEGE CLASSES, watch tv, or really do anything that involves thinking straight! - The kids are always using profanity and curse words; yelling them at the top of their lungs for the whole complex to hear, and nobody does a thing about it! Even though these bad/rude --- kids are only 5-13 years old!!! - Plan to get a parking spot a block away from your unit if you get home any later then 5pm any day of the week. - People here are sooo lazy that they go through the EXIT gate if its open JUST because they don't want to type in the code at the ENTRANCE gate (right next to the exit one). - People that live here are constantly zooming through here with their ------ rap music blasting, not caring that people are sleeping or dont wanna hear that crap, and not caring that they can hit one of the hoodlums that play in the parking lot unsupervised even when its dark. - I swear there are police, EMS, and/or fire trucks here EVERY OTHER NIGHT! - Now that i've looked more closely, theres a huge gap under my front door where all my cool air leaks out and all the hot outside air poors in! AND the frame to my bathroom's closet door is falling off! AND like NONE of my cabinet doors in my WHOLE apartment close! OTHER NOTES & COMMENTS: - The icecream truck that comes through here looks like a kidnapping mobile. It blairs that same crappy song and i swear the truck purposely stays in the same spot infront of my apartmebt FOREVER just because i gave the driver dirty looks one time for being annoying. - My refrigerator has been broken for over A MONTH! ! ! I have called the emergency maintenance number 4-5 times now, I have went to the office 2 times and I have called the office 6 times (nobody is ever there to answer the phone), and my refrigerator has NOT even been looked at! That means that for over a month, i have not been able to have milk, eggs, cheese, butter, juice, any cold drinks not bought from a store, cereal, any breakfast foods, i havent been able to eat fruit, or salad, use coffee creamer... NOTHING!!!! NOT TO MENTION ALL MY FOOD THAT I JUST BOUGHT BEFORE FINDING OUT MY REFRIGERATOR WAS BROKEN ($50.00 WORTH) ALL WENT BAD AND NOW MY FRIDGE SMELLS LIKE ROTTEN DAIRY PRODUCTS! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Do NOT move here!!! it may seem cheap, and nice when you first move in, but its all fake! All the maintanence people ever do is ---- with the outside stuff to draw customers in! Then once you move in, your stuck in this dump until your lease ends! Save yourself. Save you time, your headaches, frustration and your money!!!!!!!!!

I moved in a couple of months ago. The appliances are very old and the plumbing outside my apt overflows a lot. So far I have always received quick responses when making maintenance requests, it might work better if you just tell the maintenance guy your issues directly ( lady in the office is very rude and unprofessional ) so I just go to the maintenance guy that speak English and things get done the same day. A big problem I have here is the water bill. It's ridiculous!! 100 dollars for a 2 bedroom apt. Lately it's been quite outside and you don't see people hanging out as much as before. I think you get what you pay for. The apartments are cheap and in ok condition.

I am a current resident at the waverly. @verydisappointed007 your are absoluty correct, they do tape everything to your front door, and yes they are wrong for send out eviction letters to people who kids play outside. The only thing that i can say that i hace had a proplem with is the maintenance. The office and maintenance team (which are 3 guys but you only see 2) do not communicate well. If you have an issue that needs to be take care of keep an open schedule because you will be waiting for days. The parking is okay I always have a parking spot.I moved in these apt 2 years ago and they were very quiet now they are just letting anyone lease an apt now a days. They have people coming over and hanging out in the parking lot from the next apts between a big hole in the fence behind the dumpster. My lease is up soon and im not renewing it I got a special 499.00 for 1 bed room of 700 somthing sq they are increasing rent to 519.00 for that price i might as well pay 50 more and move into something nicer.... I wouldnt recommend Read more: http://www.apartmentratings.com/rate/TX-Houston-Waverly-Apa

Wish I never moved in!! i was given keys only to find the apartment a complete disaster area with appliances missing. It took management almost a week to make ready after I had signed my lease only to move in and have to wait another 2 weeks to get everything completely ready. In the past 5 months the complex has been without hot water 4 times. An outside cable company was given acces to my apartment without any prior knowledge to me. The management tapes your water bill to the front door with all your info facing out, no encelope. Rhey even gave out notices a few months back stating they would send out eviction notices if your children are playing outside at anytime. The unit is a great price for the size but this is by far the worse experience I've ever had with any complex.
