| - I am a very picky person in terms of housing. I moved to Azul at Spectrum from Philadelphia. Gilbert is definitely a change from Philadelphia (not awesome), but as for Azul at Spectrum, I cannot say enough good things about it. They are prompt with service, their staff is incredibly kind, respectful, and responsive, they are clean, and the facilities are good (gym, pool, volley ball court, dog park, 24 hour printers and computers) and very well kept. Also, Azul's business hours also cannot be beat - they are open 7 days a week.The only thing I dislike, is that it is mandatory at Azul to pay for valet trash service (why can't I just bring my trash to the dumpster for free if I want to?).
In terms of the dog poop questions other reviewers on other sites have mentioned, I personally witness Azul's staff members coming out EVERY morning to try to pick up the dog poop that dog owners leave behind. There is a dog poop bag dispenser and garbage can every 50 feet for goodness' sake.Yes, there may be some dog poop outside. But I can testify that Azul is doing its best to make up for irresponsible dog owners; so if you see dog poop here, please understand who is at most to blame (by the way, I have a dog; I clean up his poop because I believe it should not be someone else's job to take care of my own mess).
I have lived here for 2 years. After 1 year, I thought I might prefer to move to more of a city, like Scottsdale or Tempe, but I stayed because Azul at Spectrum is such a wonderful place to live. I have lived many places in many states; trust me - this place is great. I am on the opposite side of a building that is next to the pool (so I face away from the pool) and I don't hear any noise whatsoever. It's really quiet. Azul also throws occasional pool movies or pool parties if you are interested in meeting people, but I never hear them on the occasions I stay in my apartment. I rarely hear my neighbors. So you can have quiet and socialization as you please. (I rated Noise a 1 because it asks if I can hear my neighbors; I cannot hear my neighbors well at all). I have renewed my lease for the second time, even though Gilbert is really not a cool pace to live (moved here for a job). I wouldn't hesitate for a second to move to Azul at Spectrum again if I had to live in Gilbert. There are security people who walk around, so you always feel safe, even at night. If you are looking to live in Gilbert, this is the place to go.
Oh yeah, and those people who say (on this site and others) that they get a ton of additional and unexpected fines or charges, I'm not sure what they did to get them or what they are talking about. I will admit, I haven't moved out yet, so maybe Azul will hit me later with all those move-out fines the other reviewers have talked about (I'll let you know if they do). And it is true, this is a big management company that will not accept damage to the apartment or late payments. They are very serious about paying your rent, and you will get fined and evicted shortly if you do not pay (within days). But that being said, I have never had ANY fines or fees I didn't expect within the past 2 years, and they have been nothing but courteous to me. They have only been fair with me. So, for those of you reading reviews about additional fines incurred by other reviewers (apart from moving out fees, with which I have not had experience yet), you might just want to inquire more deeply why those fines were incurred.
