“I like my apartment, it's nice and don't really have much hassle from anything. Bugs are bad in my apt- I get a lot of silverfish once a month. I've gotten it down to try and fumigate myself so it has really helped with keeping them propagating in greater numbers. The biggest problem I have with the apartment is the trashy people living here. When you drive up to the very front there is a person that lives on the ---------------------------. When I came home one day from work the guy is sitting on his patio with his shirt off, this gives off a very trashy and ------ appearance. -------------------------------------. I have gotten up in the morning to walk my dog at 6 am and a few people were still drinking on that person's patio. It's not against the law for them to do any of that but I have smelled them smoking weed out there. There are ------ people that live here. One guy was flying up the garage in his suv- as I was parking I was attempting to do a 3 point turn into a parking space and when I went to back up the guy impatiently sped around my left. There was an oncoming car that was waiting patiently that had to move their car quickly because they were scared of this ------ fab dude that was too impatient to wait 1 minute it's also annoying when these ------ people drive through the parking garage blaring their ------ music loudly. Management is average and I have never had issues with them. One bad thing though is I found on the website they have lowered prices. This is what allows the ------ fab types the ability to live here. Can't wait to leave and move into a more expensive place these types cannot afford.”

“Honestly this is the nicest apartment I've seen in a while. The residents are so helpful.Security is visible and also helpful. Raven is Amazing she's the assistant manager and she helped me through the whole process.She expedited the process since I had to move the same week. Zabrina (the manager) was also very helpful and direct with me. I feel like I can ask her anything. Noemi (leasing consultant ) also helped to make sure everything was ready before moving in! Kevin helped me to sign my lease! Honestly it was definitely a team effort! There is unity in the staff and you can really tell. They all help each other out! I just moved in yesterday and. I feel like part of the family already! Ok so about the apartment, I had 3 minor things wrong with the apartment upon moving in. For example the water filter needed to be replaced and I needed them to patch the paint on the front door. I told them at 9 am went out and by 12 all three things were done! JUST WOW! Everywhere is so clean! Even the garage ! Complimentary tea and coffee! Pool and courtyard is exceptional! Honestly I already know I will resign my lease! The business center has both iMacs and PC's. They also have a conference room that you can reserve. Most importantly EVERYTHING except the pool is open 24/7! I LOVE THIS PLACE -- BLENDout**”

“*FYI- I've just copied my review from Google to post here* PROS: -We haven't had any issues with roaches or bugs, except for the 1 month when the building became infested with millipedes. It got pretty bad, our patio was covered with them and even though we never opened our windows or patio door they found their way in. Eventually pest control got it under control and we haven't had any issues. - The guys who do maintenance are extremely helpful and nice. They really look out for the tenants. We had a ceiling leak in our bedroom one evening, and maintenance showed up and got everything sorted. -This complex is really close to Terry Hershey Park, my husband and I would walk or jog there regularly. Unfortunately you have to take Eldridge to get there and Eldridge is a really loud and congested street a lot of the time. Cons: - We weren't able to get a 12 month lease when we moved in, according to them there weren't any available and we could either choose a 7 or 15 month lease. - Walls/ceilings are thin. I understand this is an apartment and all but during our 15 months here we constantly had to deal with the screams and tantrums of our neighbors toddler (even though we have no adjoining walls). Also, if I'm in the living room I can hear everyone who walks by plus the conversations they are having. I can also hear my upstairs neighbor rolling around in what sounds to be an office chair. -The kitchen and bathroom finishes look really nice at first glance, but once you actually start using the cabinets and drawers, you'll realize they are made of cheap particle board with a "wood finish veneer". While I do own a few pieces from Ikea, none of them have shed the amount of wood dust as the built in cabinets in my unit. - If you're interested in signing a lease here and really like natural light, avoid getting put in a unit on the side of the building near the church. I never realized how much I took natural light for granted until I had to buy several lamps plus day light bulbs so the living room didn't feel like a dungeon. During the peak of day, light would only make it's way about 2ft into the main living area. -I originally was going to give this complex 3 stars because we haven't had many overall issues except for super thin walls, parking and the millipede infestation, but things are usually fine and dandy until move out. We were charged a full months rent for our last 16 days in this unit, and once I realized my husband had paid this incorrect amount. They claimed we have to wait 30 days after our move out to be refunded. Basically they figured they would use the amount they incorrectly charged us for as an extra deposit. Even going as far as to say we should have read the lease and not have signed it if we didn't approve of the final months bill. We did read through the lease, and there is NO mention of an exact amount, it's actually blank. Hopefully we will get our HUNDREDS of dollars back, because this seems like a SCAM to rob tenants of their money. Make sure your final bill is correct! -I feel like we were overpaying for what we were actually getting at this complex, especially since prices are increasing, so we are moving out. There were several break ins (cars and actual apartment units) and yet the doors on the first floor are always wide open with no one in site. The front entrance near the computer lab is rarely ever locked and at one point the entrance door to the 2nd floor had the door knob broken and hanging off. - Parking is a nightmare. The parking garage is dangerous, I'm surprised there haven't been multiple accidents with how fast people come around the corners with out thinking to use the mirrors. And if you're on floors 1-3 and want to park on your actual floor you better be parked by 7:30pm and not move or you're out of luck.”

“Don't believe the positive reviews. They are either paid, fake or really not living here. This place has the worst management in the Katy-Energy corridor area. I've lived in 4 other apartments. The nice look of the apartments and their relatively closer access to the I10 backed up traffic tricked me. These people simply DON'T CARE.”

“I have lived in 7 Seventy for six months and have really enjoyed it ! The building , lobby, and pool areas are beautiful ,feels like living in a five star luxury resort. Everyone in the leasing and management office are extremely nice and always greet you with a smile .The building is very well maintained and clean.I always look forward to seeing the staff and maintenance crew each morning for laughs and fresh coffee in the coffee bar, much better than Starbucks .Any issues get taken care of promptly .All the tenants are very friendly,access and parking are excellent. I am having fun here and plan on staying a good while. James”

“We have lived at 770 for 8 months now. When we first moved in it was managed by the builders' group and of course, they were awesome because they could tell you exactly what you wanted to hear knowing they would sell the building and move on and a new management would have to come in and pick up the pieces. It's taken a couple of months but new management is working hard to fix some issues they inherited and seem to be in the swing of things. Overall, I think maintenance is taking great care of the building and surrounding areas. The office staff is trying to accommodate everyone to the best of their abilities and within the latitude of the corporate office and doing a pretty good job.”

“Great and really comfortable building! I couldnt be happier ! I'm satisfied with the decision I have made!”

“Being in the heart of this desirable area, 7 Seventy is the jewel of the Energy Corridor for apartment living! From its clean, modern architectural exterior to its beautiful contemporary living spaces, 7 Seventy has definitely been the best choice for me and my family to call home! My wife and I fell in love with the complex the moment we walked in for our tour. The property was roughly 50% complete as construction was still present, but what we saw was already more than enough to convince us to sign on the dotted line! Our focus was to live somewhere brand new and was spacious enough for our infant son to grow into. We moved in at the beginning of August 2014 and have not been disappointed. The staff that works inside the leasing office are always greeting us with a smile and are very courteous and professional. If I ever have a question or concern, they are always willing to listen and act on it in a very timely manner. We've had our share of service requests for our unit, and the quality of work from the maintenance department has always been acceptable and completed in a timely manner. The apartment complex is a great place to live. From the 24 hour fitness center and 24 hour business center, to the comfortable community living area and pool table, 7 Seventy always has something to offer its residences. The outdoor pool and courtyard areas are definitely great spots to treat our guests, who are always impressed with where we live. Our apartment is a very spacious, two bedroom unit. We hardly ever have to turn on our lights as plenty of natural light fills our home. All of the appliances and fixtures are new and modern. High ceilings and plenty of wall space can be found in every room. My wife fell in love with the kitchen, especially the spacious counter that runs 12 feet long! Compared to our previous apartment home, we have found ourselves spending more time in our new home and cooking a lot more meals (versus the daily routine of eating out). This property offers some nice perks! The parking garage has been a nice addition to our living experience, compared to just parking your vehicle outside on a lot. The pick-up trash service is always convenient and the monthly resident activities are always a great way to meet new residents! The management tries to get a food truck to stop by at least once or twice a month. Overall, I would recommend this property (and have quite often) to anyone looking for a change of scenery in their living situation. This property and its wonderful team at the leasing center has made it easy to call 7 Seventy home for myself and my family!”

“A very nice place overall.We've had nearly no issues with anything so far and when we do Management has been great since we moved in. I feel bad for the staff sometimes because they took over this property and they get the bad rap. My experience everything is very well maintained and it's a very quiet neighborhood overall. Let not forget this is an apartment complex not a home so you do get the noise at times. The only MINOR complaint I have is the fact that they don't have assigned parking however I've found a spot every time. Very convenient to everything but far enough away for some peace and quiet.”

“Well I lived in apartment 1*3(ill let them figure it out) and still do but will have to break contract since I chose to move out as quick as I could and purchase a home. The Complex was great till ------- Property Management took over. First of all everyone I knew before was awesome all of the Alliance team members were highly skilled at what they do and did everything to please there tenants but on the other hand ------- does not. One day we asked ------- if we could have a Baby Shower in the "congregation area" of the complex and he told us yes so we went ahead and planned it the day came and friends started to show up and the property manager told us we must vacate the area and only 2 people were allowed which made us really mad so we left. Now on there part miscommunication was the key and they still lack this skill at times. For instance my Friend/ Boss ---------- was trying to move in but ------ told him 3 days in a row he would call him back for the BG information and they never called him. He called a week later and ------ told him "oh you were approved 3 days ago but I forgot to call you back". Now once again they lack communication and skill. Now there have been other things that have gone on like cars being broken into and the door to the mail room that you have to swipe your RFID about 3-6 times for it to open which has been like that since about November. Also there are other things like when I called earlier today and "-------" answered the phone and I told her I was expecting packages and wanted her to check because they are items that cost more than what she makes in a week and there have been packages stolen when UPS or FedEx leaves them at the apartment doors and the response I got was "well he dropped of like 50 packages and I haven't got to check them , but you can just assume they are at your apartment door". ..........Seriously why don't you get up and go check if my packages are in the office so that way I assume that my packages worth more than your paycheck are at my door. Seriously I have been avoiding all these little things but they have really done it today. Seriously when will they get that tenants come first before anything. So if your looking for nice apartment that lacks lots of management skills and can't even keep the gym from smelling like mold and sweat that's about 5 years old then this is the one for you. Also I am still expecting my referral which for apartment ---”

“HORRIBLE management. Good luck getting them to be helpful. The manager literally said out loud to me "we don't have gates and controlled access to protect our residents, it's for our interest and the buildings". Not to mention that the doors are never locked and the gates are left open regularly. If you read the reviews before October, you can ignore those because that's when we had an awesome staff, but then our apartment was sold and a new management company came in. Nice grounds, but overpriced with rude people running it, and you can hear every little noise your neighbors and upstairs neighbors make.”

“This complex had so much potential to be amazing. They advertised luxury pool, massage room, and spin classes...not to mention a fenced in dog park! We were so excited to move into this complex. We happened to be one of the first to move in while the place was under construction. It was very much an adjustment but we dealt with it hoping that once construction was done 7seventy would live up to its promises. A lot of trashy people started moving in from the very beginning. We were surrounded by people smoking weed in the garage and hallways, throwing parties, leaving food trash all over the grounds, it was scary and we felt unsafe in our own "home". For the amount of rent and deposits, we were very surprised these people could afford to rent from here. We chose such a high rent place for this reason, to get away from trash. Not to mention the office staff was so friendly in the beginning, promising you everything, but then when it came down to following thru they would back peddle and everyone had a different story, If you are going to lie to your tenants, get the story straight first. When we signed our lease Olivia told us there were no specials for oil and gas employees...not even a week after we moved in, i was standing in the office waiting to get mail, when i over heard her tell a soon to be tenant they would NOT have to pay a deposit because they were an oil and gas employee. And the lies began. Of course, this office staff is no longer there since the place has been bought out by Francis properties. This new unwelcoming staff treats you like you a lower class than they are. No eye contact, cant get a sentence out without hesitating, and on top of that, they always so "Yes, we will get right back to you" and two weeks later you are still waiting for a response after five more follow ups. This new staff doesn't care at all about the tenants, but then again what office staff of an apartment complex does? All they want is to lease the apartments to make their commission and get their bonuses. ***NEW TENANTS BEWARE**** This is not a quiet complex. The walls are paper thin and you will be able to hear everything! When our neighbors are walking around their apartment like any normal person would, it sounds like bowling balls. We can hear their morning alarms go off, the bathroom drawers cabinets being opened and closed, the toilet flushing....no privacy at all. Not to mention, on of our walls is on the other side of the stairwell, so it sounds like our wall is going thru a hurricane every time some is walking up or down the stairs. We can hear every talking outside, the traffic on Eldridge, and all the dogs barking in the apartments around us...not to mention every time some one goes into their storage unit which shares a wall with our kitchen, our cabinets shake and you have to listen to loud banging and thuds till they are done. Also, don't expect some lavish dog park, its a tiny fenced in area the size of my bedroom closet. Not even enough room for a yorkie to run. If you are okay with people smoking weed in the hallways, people driving fast around corners in a garage that doesn't have safety mirrors (seriously, who doesn't put mirrors in a parking garage??), food trash all over the grounds, and all the private moments of your neighbors for an outrage price, then this is the place for you. ******I forgot to mention, last week there were two car break ins.....in the "secure" parking garage.******** still feel safe?”

“A+ property and leasing staff. Olivia did an excellent job handling my lease/documentaiton. I have lived in numerous properties all over the city, and I have never worked with a leasing agent who was as responsive, professional, and efficient. In many cases, my emails were answered within a few minutes. I moved in a few weeks ago and, thus far, the property has exceeded expectations. It is as quiet as any "luxury" property I have lived at, and the grounds and common areas are kept in immaculate condition. The gym and pool are awesome, and the pool table and business center are nice added features. There is also ample parking, and the garage is very well lit and feels plenty safe late at night. My apartment was in perfect condition upon move in and, for the first time ever, I was able to leave the move in checklist completely blank. Bottom line - if you want to live in this area and 7 Seventy is in your price range, you should absolutely give it a look.”

“I moved with my other half into 7 Seventy recently and cannot be more pleased with the community, the services, the apartment, and the staff. Since our initial visit two months ago through move-in this month, the leasing staff has exceeded every level of professionalism and courteousness while still being genuinely personable and helpful. The quality of the people who work at a community means just as much as the quality of the community itself, in our opinion, and the community is exceptional. For the price, the features included in the property are spectacular. Every complex these days has a pool and gym, but providing a coffee bar, massage room, spin room for cycling, water fountain with water bottle refiller, lotion bar at the pool, valet trash and recycling, maintenance text notifications, and convenient access to the Terry Hershey Park trails are just a few of the details that make this community stand out. Not to mention that from start to finish, almost everything is done electronically (including lease signing), which for residents like us who travel a lot, is invaluable. Lastly, for those who worry about security, the place is guarded like a fortress, which we know will help many sleep better at night. Since moving in, and even prior to moving in, any small request has been dealt with quickly and with a smile, and without a doubt we believe everyone will have the same experience. We highly recommend 7 Seventy!”
