Doesn’t give back full security deposit. It’s basic and it does that really well. But they don’t give your security deposit back in full, they overcharge you for small things such as crumbs that don’t exist.

Management will pinch your pockets Ridiculous fees will be tacked to your account included $150 for failure to return a paper laminated parking pass (even though we turned it in). Cars are broken into regularly, at least once every two weeks (no exaggeration), our bikes were stolen off of locked racks after one week into our lease. Maintenance responds quickly and these community is nice. But for safety and blatant lack of respect for tenants with the charges you should look elsewhere trust me.

Expect to Leave in a Year I love the look of these apartments, very charming and convenient location. Unfortunately there are "water bugs", as they call them at Olentangy Village, i.e. cockroaches. Not enough charm to keep me around while there are bugs. Management is responsive and sends people out to treat the apartments but the place is old and needs more than just spraying. Management isn't great though, feels like they're trying to rip you off - isn't this most landlords though? **No dishwasher, no air, bugs, and they w... read more

Not recommended for anyone not in college The hallways reek of pot and management just keeps putting up notices on the doors to stop when I complained. The smell wafts into my apartment. The ceilings constantly have leaks, the lead paint is peeling in big chips and the heat doesn't get above 60 degrees. No dogs are allowed, but everyone has them anyway and the lawns reflect this.

BUYER BEWARE Do you want to overpay for an apartment with no AC or climate control? Do you want to share 3 constantly broken down washers and dryers with 100 of your closest neighbors? Do you want mold growing in your windows? Do you want to deal with a leasing office that wants to do everything but help you? Well look no further! The plumbing constantly had issues to where it we would frequently have no water. The common spaces were rarely clean. Bug and pest control came monthly to spray... I don’t want to know how much wo... read more

Convenient, Quiet, iffy parking at times Great location, very quiet besides doors shutting when it gets colder outside. The amenities are difficult to work with at times but honestly I feel like most of these reviews aren’t appreciative of the fact that this place has everything basic that you need besides in unit laundry and AC. It isn’t hard to work around those things that it lacks, just get a dehumidifier and some fans for the summer. One of my favorite places I’ve lived for sure, just wish I could have a dog in my unit ... read more

Steer Clear Does anyone else find it curious that this property has 7 ratings (4 of them 1 star) yet it somehow has a 5 star average rating? Looks like OV is paying apartments.com to show a 5 star rating when in reality it's probably under 2 stars. I have been living at OV for a few months in the Classic Village section and I chose the complex due to price and location. After these few months I definitely regret my decision. This apartment is as bare bones as it gets: no AC, no microwave, no dishwasher, no garbage disposal, ... read more

Terrible place to live The apartments have old rusty kitchen cabinets and there’s plaster falling from my walls and ceiling. Maintenance is the WORST. They of course don’t fix the falling apart walls and they’re in your apartment at least monthly. They are constantly in your space invading your privacy. It’s pretty terrible. With the abhorrent aesthetics, intrusive and incompetent maintenance team, the monthly rental is absurd. Now don’t think what you see here is your rent, no no no. They tack on an additional $100 a month ... read more

Do not recommend Apartments are old and the heat doesn't work properly during the winter. Maintenance staff are rude. Very expensive rent for what they are.
