Lower Apartments Reviews

At first glance, the Lowers is kinda dingy and tucked away/ covered with forest trees and bugs, but from my experience, it was a pretty homey and pleasant area. The layout of the Lower apartments is that of a two story building, typically with one double and a single on the second floor and a single on the first.

I lived in Bravery apartments in Marshall Lowers. The room was almost twice as big as the triple that I was in last year in the dorms, but the room was musty and on the second floor so it got pretty hot. When I came back from winter break, there were mice living in the cabinet and feces all over our food. I contacted EHS and had them set traps but that was not fun at all. There was also a termite infestation and my apartment mate's windowsill had a little hole where 5-10 termites would crawl out of every day. Location is extremely convenient and room is spacious but at the cost of a clean living environment.

You find yourself waiting to use the bathroom because the shower and toilet is located in one room and shared between 6 people. I also hated every single on of them.
