Review for Northgate Apartments

If you want a classy-looking place with a great location for the Gateway Mall, Trax, the Delta Center, and freeway access, this is the place. But don't let it fool you.

The biggest disappointment was the level of tenants. Garbage in the hallways, the smell of marijuana, riding mountain bikes in the hallways, loud parties at 3 am, constant vandalism of facilities, fire alarms at 2 am, and a mailroom with a perpetual litter problem. I think this said more about the Utah kids living away from home for the first time than it did about the staff. They tried really hard to keep it classy. They just felt the need to fill up more than they felt the need to check references.

Also, for some reason the city seems to a vandetta against the developer. Parking enforcement is overzealous. Tenants complained of getting parking tickets for $50 while they dropped their rent off at the office. Tenants' cars got towed on a daily basis. This drove off a lot of tenants and customers from the Gateway mall.

On the expensive side. For the price, you can buy a decent home with better neighbors.
