Spectrum Apartments & Townhomes

I recently helped my daughter move into this apartment complex, and our experience has been very disappointing. There is no receptionist or visible security presence whatsoever. Within the first day, we ordered packages, and both were stolen. Inside her unit, one wall had a hole, others were dirty, and several had scratches. For the high rent they ask, the condition of the apartment and the lack of basic services are unacceptable. Communication with the building manager has also been poor. They advertise one thing but are not providing what they promise. Overall, the management and security here need serious improvement.

I moved to the twin cities and into Spectrum a year ago and this is my favorite complex I’ve lived in by far! It honestly has everything you could look for in an apartment: location, pet friendly, gym, rooftop patio, free coffee, pool, year round hot tub, yoga studio, and a couple rooms for studying/working from home. The neighborhood is nice and walkable, multiple parks within walking distance and the Stone Arch Bridge is within walking distance too. Lots of restaurants at your disposal near Dinkytown but also some in the other direction, my favorite is Brasa. I35W is like 2-3 lights away but you don’t hear it and also it’s a straight shot to North Loop, Roseville,St. Paul and Como Regional Park. I have two dogs and I find that Spectrums setup is super nice especially during the winter yo

Poor communication and lack of transparency. During my move-out inspection, management confirmed that my unit was in acceptable condition. However, they still deducted part of my security deposit without any notice or explanation. After I moved out, important mail was sent to my old address. They neither forwarded it to me nor notified me about it.

I wish there was a one star option. The rooms are like cubbies and the management is horrible and inconsiderate. The garage gets robbed every other week and the parking lot gets robbed every week at least once. There It’s only one camera if not, two outside the building. I’ve had my house lock broken and the it was blamed on maintenance and management didn’t care to fix it until I noticed it was broken. This was not maintenance fault at all and was just a lie. The crime in the area is bad and this building has very minimal security precautions. It is not safe in this area and I did not feel safe living here. And don’t let me get started on the “fine policy” You are fined for the smallest things and the fines are very large up to $250 and most of the time it’s $250. You’re very lucky to get

I love living at Spectrum! Bailey is easily the best property manager I've ever had and truly cares for the residents. Maintenance requests were always completed very quickly, and the amenities are such a fun perk! The neighborhood is quiet and it's centrally located near a lot of great spots. I feel so cared for here!
