Liberty Crest Apartments — Attraction in Salt Lake City

When we were looking for a place to live, we had so many options. We wanted to experience downtown living, but we were so overwhelmed with all the different options. We did our research and had narrowed it down to three different apartment complexes. We visited all three and called them multiple times with questions (I am sure I had repeated questions over and over). All I can say is there was no comparison on the service and friendliness provided by the Liberty Crest Apartments leasing staff. That alone, helped us make our decision. Sure, there were complexes with larger apartments, different amenities, and lower pricing, but we don't regret our decision one bit. From the calls and visits to us moving in, they really did take the stress out of renting an apartment. The friendliness did not change when we moved in. In fact the office manager and the leasing staff went above and beyond by remembering our names and our circumstances for renting. Whenever we visited the office to discuss routine conversations, they would ask how our house was coming along, how work is going, and how we are enjoying the city, and they were genuine about it. The maintenance and janitorial staff were equally as great. We had a few very minor maintenance issues, but they were quick to repair. The halls and building (inside and out) was very well-kept.

Now down to the actual apartments: This location was key in making our decision. We were walking distance to social hall, which was so important because my husband and I only have one car. I noticed many tenants also walked to their place of work throughout the week. Parking spaces are included at no extra cost. We rented a cozy one bedroom apartment with adequate space for two. Stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops were nice. Pantry was a bonus for us. The halls and apartments were so quiet, I didn't even realize we had neighbors because I never heard them! Closet space in a one bedroom was perfect, even for the two of us. There was a media charge for cable and internet on top of the rent that we preferred not to have, but in our research we found that is common in renting. The internet was great but I can't provide feedback on the cable, as we did not use it and watched Netflix online.

We moved here temporarily while our house was being built and believe it was the best decision we could have made! So much so that we are second guessing ourselves for buying (not really, but you get the point). Thank you Liberty Crest, for making our renting...

Great place to live, very high quality finishes at a reasonable price and good location downtown. I moved here on short notice from the east coast (due to a work assignment), and was unable to come and take a look at apartment buildings beforehand. Its not a perfect five stars but for sure closer to 5 than four.... in a nutshell heres everything I wish I had known before moving in:

PROS -Staff is awesome at this building. They're always happy to help out and shout out to Michael who delivers packages literally to your apartment if you cant make it home before the office closes Parking Space is included (second one is only 50). Didnt see that at comaprable buildings. Things like appliances, water pressure, granite countertops etc are all top of line. -Super safe you have to fob in twice to get to apartments. Maybe annoying if you have guests but generally a plus. Havent seen many homeless compared to other parts of the city so thats great too. -Walking distance to Harmons, city creek mall, and some great bars/restaurants. -Shorter term leases are NOT pro rated to be more expensive. -Coffee machine in lounge rocks -Cable/ internet included so you dont have to worry about setting that up

CONS Look at the floor plans online and youll notice theyre totally wack. The bathrooms are unnecessarially HUGE and the smaller two bedroom layout literally doesnt have space for a dining room table. Odd, but if youre not entertaining much you can totally roll with that. Larger apartments have more space for dining/ living but still huge bathrooms. Tiny aplicanes - theyre new and work great but the dishwasher, washer/dryer and fridge are a bit tiny -Many apartments dont have a view (interior/ courtyard)

Other things -No pets allowed (but people have service animals). Good news if you have allergies/ get annoyed by barking , bad if you have a pup -Why do I literally never see anyone in the hallways? -Gym is fine not great, but good if you want to clock a quick 30 on...

To start, I am not one to leave a bad review unless I felt it was necessary. Me and my partner were so excited to tour this apartment complex as we are currently looking for a place closer downtown. It was near to both of our places of work as well as in good walking distance to the mall and looked very neat and clean. The apartments shown to us were more than great and had covered both our wants and needs. It was going to be our number one pick for sure. However, the leasing office agent that had given us the tour and helped us had treated us strangely. At first, I thought that I may have been overthinking how she was carrying herself. It overall had just put me off and made me uncomfortable. I am not sure if she was acting that way because my partner and I are younger and she could have believed that we could not afford to live there. I could not for the life of me understand what had made her act that way towards us. The second we left the building, my partner asked me if I noticed the way she was acting. We got home and covered our bases on which apartments we were most drawn towards and had set ourselves a pros and cons list (as this is very important to us and we want to make a good decision.) Had it not been for the way we were treated, we would’ve chosen here. Be careful when looking into apartments because the way you are treated by the staff will most likely end up being what dictates your experience while...
