I have been living here for a few years now. The area has gotten worse since I first moved in, but Indianapolis as a whole has gotten a lot worse in that same time frame. Im in a 1 bedroom and the size is perfect for 1 person. Here are the cons for me: like I said, the area is getting rougher. It is normal to hear gunshots at night now. The kitchen is so outdated, the cabinets are from the 70s/80s--just ugly. The dishwashers work but dont actually clean, and the carpet is pretty cheap. Also, it smells like weed a lot of the time, it travels through the vents, just a heads up. Here are the pros: for one bedrooms under $800, this is the best youre gonna get in Indy. Its ugly, and as much as I have complained about the area, he neighborhood is definitely not the worst in the city. There are plenty worse areas to live in, this is like middle of the road in Indy at the moment. Another pro, the proximity to 465. Its literally a 30 second drive to 465 and that is huge for commuting. To finish this off, I wish the apartments would be updated, but I can guarantee they would then raise the rent by $100 minimum, and these apartments, even if fully updated to todays aesthetic standards, are not worth that because the area is getting worse and worse. These are okay apartments to stay in. Theyre not great, but definitely not terrible, so 3/5 feels like a good rate.

The property is clean and respectful quiet. Maintenance is very fast acting. The office people can careless about your things. I have had parts stolen off my vehicle many times and also sometimes the office will take your packages, but if not they come up stolen. I expressed my concern to the office a couple times. They seem to not care and brush you off saying they have security. Well the security sits in front of their building and make sure it is being fully equipped with security.

I have been living here for about 6 months now and I would say yes the neighborhood is very quiet and it’s close to everything. Good area to live.Cons:1.the walls are very thin. You can literally here your neighbor cough or the water going through the pipes when someone use the bathroom.2. I feel like the apartments could be upgraded with new cabinets. It’s 2021 why do we have these 1980s cabinets. For the amount we pay in rent and I’m pretty sure it’s going to go up soon, there needs to be something new.

Good people, Id live there again.

Its fine well upkeep

Nice pool area

They are pricey yet the neighborhood is respectfully quiet.

I just recently signed my third year lease with Idlewood Apartments. The staff are amazing, maintenance is the best. it’s very quiet and well kept clean. If you have a maintenance request they usually come within a couple hours to a day. Your packages are never stolen because they are dropped off at the office. It’s a wonderful place to live. and the cherry on top of living here is I got a free washer and dryer. Miranda and Tiffany are the sweetest leasing consultants. They always take care of any needs I have. thank you Idlewood staff for giving me a peace of mind. ❤️ -Sarah

Ive lived in this community for 4, going on 5 years. I love it here. The staff is always kind, and flexible. Also, the grounds are always clean, and its very quiet. I can honestly say that Idlewood is the best apartment complex Ive lived in.

Application process takes too long

The apartment was nice, and management were always helpful. I little pricey for the location, but all in all a good apartment for the area. We enjoyed our years there.

I mean I have no words how to describe this place. Its just amazing. I just finished my 1st year lease 4 months ago going on to 2nd year lease. Clean, quite safe place, and also maintenance amazing. Overall Im 😀 to live here.

Thank you so much for such beauty from outside and inside. Full of energy and happiness. Much love and Respect. All the employees are extremely professional and nice, so kind. God bless. Much love and respect 💖💗😘💫💫✨🇺🇸🇸🇾

Just perfect view if you have a balcony. And perfect for relaxing

Office staff is very courteous and the maintenance staff is knowledgeable, helpful, and very punctual! They actually fix what needs to be done and not give an excuse about how they cant, also, fix things they notice that arent on my work orders. They (maintenance) also ask if anything else needs done while theyre in my apt for original repairs. I love it here!

Wonderful place to live, I love the trail between the two halves of the complex. My dog does too. Leasing staff is amazing and maintenance rocks!

You would think as much as they charge in rent that the kitchens would be a little more clean and updated.

I decided to wait until I have actually lived here to do a review. I moved in March 2018 it’s now July 2018. Honestly I have no complaints the grounds are kept up my neighbors are very quiet and I live on first floor. My window was cracked and they responded immediately order a new window installed it very quickly. Every time I have a question or concern they answer it and the office ladies are very courteous. The inside is not as updated with stainless appliances but it’s very homey, cozy and affordable. As long as you pay your rent on time honestly there are no problems.

Nice apt (if you spend the money). At first management was really responsive to concerns about the property... on second thought not worth my time for a full review.In all rate was way too high and the the staff was rude and dishonest at times.You are better off elsewhere.Happy Hunting!

Decent apartments at a decent price

Grounds are well kept, I feel safe, my neighbors are quiet and considerate. No problems in the 7 months that Ive been here. I will most like renew my release.

For a while it was nice but the violence has been increasing. On July 1st, 2014 there was a shooting in broad daylight, around 4pm right in front of my building. Multiple gun shots and shells. The management was sitting on a golf cart watching the police clean up the mess. Subsequently, when myself and other residents made inquiries as to how the situation was being handled, management REFUSED to even acknowledge the shooting. The same people I saw that had witnessed it (management) lied through their teeth to my face. Additionally, they are trying to hold me liable for an additional month of residence after I vacate the apt and turn in my keys. They indicate that if a criminal vandalizes my apt after I turn in the keys and have left, I can still be held responsible for the residence and they will come after me. I highly recommend finding alternative housing. Not only is the management staff dishonest but they will attempt to screw you over in anyway possible. BEWARE!

The apartments are very affordable, but you get what you pay for. The dishwashers are cheap and never fully clean the dishes, but darn near everything else is up to par. The grounds could be taken care of better, but it is a big complex. My neighbors above me throw their cigarettes out off the balcony and some trash too, but I guess that’s not the management’s fault. My biggest bummer with idlewood is the inability to pay rent online. It’s an A+ for dogs. There’s wooded areas all over and it is beautiful.

This is the worst experience I have ever had, not only with an apartment complex, but with a business in general. After I moved out I got a notice that I had a balance of $0 that I owed them...so I didnt pay anything. A few weeks later I got a letter in the mail saying that I owe them $150 for damages to the apartment and that I had ignored their first bill. I brought it to their attention that the bill said I owed nothing...so I paid nothing. They said that was how they wrote it out for office use but I know they just made a mistake on their part when trying to bill me for damages I didnt make and then were trying to cover their butt. To save myself the hassle and my credit, I paid the money. About 2 weeks later I got a bill from a collections agency saying that I never paid. The money was taken out of my account the day I took the check in and I have proof of it. Dealing with them AFTER I moved out has been the most stressful experience of my life. This is the worst run organization I have ever dealt with. I never felt safe in this apartment while I lived there and it should have been clear as day when you tour an apartment and 3 locks (2 deadbolts) come standard on the front door. Not normal in a safe and secure community.Update: After talking with Laura, who claims to be the manager at Idlewood, turns out they FORGOT to tell the debt collector that I had paid. Oh but dont worry, she blamed everyone except herself and it PROBABLY wont affect my credit.This company is a disgraceful.

The apartments were ok. My problems came when I moved out. They tried to come up with some charges to keep my deposit and charge me more. They charge you for everything including blinds. They didn’t call or use the forwarding address I gave to the apartments when I moved out. They took away the drop box to pay rent. So if you work normal business hours, then you had no choice but to pay your rent late or on the weekend.

Love it nice clean people keep to themselves

I have lived here for 2 years and thinking about signing another lease. Staff has always been very professional, and my issues are always solved promptly.

All four of my tires were stolen, they did nothing. the light bill trippled because the heat wasnt working and they did nothing, the AC went out and they still do nothing. Plus the water bill tripped because of the AC going out and they do nothing. Dont more here they do nothing.

I have lived here for a year now, and the apartment itself was what I needed at the time. I saw a previous review from 3 years ago that management was horrible, and I didnt necessarily agree. However, I have decided to move and because I turned in my notice to vacate 3 DAYS AFTER THE FIRST OF THE MONTH, I have now been told I have to stay another month. (**with the added $50 month-to-month fee**) I would think you would want to re-rent the apartment to get the commission?! I guess not. Will NOT be recommending anyone to move here.

Within my first two days my door was jammed and I couldnt even get into my apartment. I saw another review had the same complaint. Yesterday around 20 cars or more had their windows busted at this apartment complex. Last week the apartment complex across the street had the same issue. I was warned by an older man before moving, about this being a common issue here. I should of listened. For the price of rent and the look of these apartments its not worth it. The cabinetry is very outdated. My washer has broken FOUR times. The previous tenant was a pet owner and I still vacuum up white hair. The landscaping is very neglected. My other concern, is packages. I had 2 very large packages delivered but because of size were taken to leasing office. When I got there the young lady kept saying she didnt receive any packages today. I checked my tracking number and indeed it had been. She kept going into a room to look for these packages. I followed her and stayed outside the door where she was looking. She came out and said she couldnt find anything. I told her well let me look who signed on the packages because I know they were delivered today. She went back into the room to look. I pushed the door open and what do I see? My two large packages right beside her and yet she supposedly couldnt find them. I pointed to them and I said those are mine. Surprise, surprise. I come here and read the reviews, and to no surprise the same complaints from other tenants. Shame on you. These are things we purchase and we live here. We pay to live here. Have respect for your business. Cameras should be installed around the apartment complex. It would be a great amenity to have. It would decrease criminal activity in the area. What happened to your security??? How were these criminals able to bust so many windows and your security guy was no where to be found. False advertising there is no security around here.The pictures I attached

Nice costumer serviced Miss miranda

Lady at office was really nice, apartment was very cute but too small for the price so I said nope

Great staff,the best maintenance, quiet

A very nice place

This is the ABSOLUTE WORST BUSINESS I have ever dealt with. Management is dishonest, horrible service, OBVIOUSLY DO NOT CARE about their tenants or the appearance of their complex. Stairs (concrete) are constantly broken, which is a severe LIFE/SAFETY issue. There is no maintenance upkeep on their apartments whatsoever. They issue keys that dont work to the club house to pay rent...instead I was told, You have to jiggle it and only stick the key halfway in for it to work and to get the door to open. Ummmm...ok, so even after that, youre going to charge me a DAILY late fee because I couldnt open the door to pay you for 4 days straight BEFORE rent was due?? I even told them that I dont work a 9-5 job. I work from 6am to 7 or 8pm EVERY DAY...and they close at 6pm, so that was my only way of getting the money to them...they dont care...late fees applied for their malfunctioning door and keys. I had to spend my lunch break getting to the office to hand deliver my check, only to find out...OHHHH NOOO, we cant accept your check now, only money order or cashiers check now...AFTER I CALLED TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE KEYS AND DOOR not working. There is no respect for tenants at this property at all and they have no idea what they are doing or how to run an effective business. They lose packages that they claim they dont have and actually admitted that they dont have a package log or a standard operating procedure for anything of that matter, so I was told, Well, if you dont like it, then why dont you have your packages or mail delivered to your work or somewhere else. BECAUSE THIS IS MY HOME!! This is where I live!! Because I shouldnt have to worry about the management staff stealing or losing my packages! USPS tracking and claims department both say it was delivered to the office and the management keet swearing up & down they didnt have it. Worst experience I have EVER HAD from renting at any place out of all 6 states I have lived in. They blatantly just DONT CARE and their service, reviews, business ethics and overall appearance shows it. A properly ran business owner or investor would at least attempt to respond to their reviews online to show some concern on how their property is being ran into the ground by unethical and uneducated leeches on society. DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT RENTING FROM THIS INEFFICIENT, INOPERABLE AND DISGUSTING complex. I will not be renewing my lease here, instead, I would rather give my money to an efficient operating business that has respect, proper business ethics and an honest working staff that is there to provide the service and basic essential needs of a tenant. That has proper keys that work to the club house to pay rent or to get into the pool and an honest staff that doesnt steal packages delivered.

Kids can not play outside
