| - I lived in a one bedroom unit on the first level at Hayden Park for a year and a half. The location was great. Close to Old Town and convenient shopping, pretty close to Tempe Marketplace, and within a reasonable distance for working in downtown Phoenix. The grounds were kept pretty nice. Occasionally there would be trash left outdoors by the younger crowd from a previous night, but almost every morning I saw one of the guys out picking up trash first thing. The office staff were always very friendly and timely with any questions or requests. I was impressed from the start that they remembered my name and which apartment I lived in from the beginning. The maintenance guys were also great and responded to me quickly. The layout of the apartment is what I liked most. It was great having the high counter in the kitchen and the sliding door looking outside. Having two closets in the bedroom was a real luxury. One of my favorite features of the apartment were all of the mirrors. I like bright and open-feeling spaces, and the mirrors added so much to a space that could have otherwise felt small. It was not a very big apartment, yet for being just a one-bedroom, it felt very spacious with all of the light. To give you a more complete picture, I will add that this wasn't by any means a "fancy" upscale apartment. The buildings are not new, and my unit had not been remodeled. Occasionally there were things that needed to be fixed, just like one experiences anywhere they live. I thought the cost of the apartments was reasonable for the location - I explored other complexes, and I really felt this one offered the most bang for my buck. Of course I would have liked it to cost less. who wouldn't? But for the area, it was fine. Overall, I had a very positive experience and highly recommend this apartment complex.
