While I subletted over the summer, my impression was very positive. The landlord is strict, so there aren't parties at ALL, nor are there loud noises from other people. Marco, however, is firm but reasonable. He does live in the building. The area is also really close to campus and the freeway, which is convenient.

The trash is easy to take out, with an area to put it away. The place is definitely safe, with a building key and apartment keys. Parking spots are tandem too, but there really aren't many spaces.

I'd say that upkeep was sufficient, but somewhat slow. We asked several times for lightbulbs to be replaced (we ended up buying the bulbs ourselves after over a month). Repairs kept the important stuff working and the apartment liveable. However, the actual repairs were free (which included a brand new faucet and a leaking toilet fixed).

I lived with 4 other people, and there was definitely sufficient space despite only having two rooms (although the kitchen was small for 5 people). However, for $700/month, you'll definitely be better of here than in a frat house for the same amount of money.

Very quiet and relaxing building-- partially because the landlord is very strict. He's yelled at my roommates and I for small mistakes. However, it's manageable and the building feels very safe. It's also very well maintained, we always have problems fixed within a day or two. Highly recommended, great deal for the location and size. We have 5 in a 2-bedroom and have plenty of space.

I've lived in two separate units in 403 Landfair for 3 years, now, and I haven't regretted a single year of it. The floor environment depends on where you live. The third floor tends to have parties, which are very annoying, and the second tends to have a VERY strong community environment. Other floors are pretty quiet.

403, like all apartments, is what you make of it. The cleaning and maintenance staff do their best to keep things neat; if there's trash in the hall, it's because residents have neglected to throw it away.

I have always found Marko, the building manager, very reasonable: if you treat him well, he will treat you well. He does not like demanding, rude, or loud tenants -- and I respect that. Yes, we rent from him, but I'm not of the opinion that a check entitles residents to abuse the manager. I have never had any problems with him, and he has always promptly replied to my emails, texts, and helped figure out any problem I might have.

The building is in the process of being renovated; every summer, different apartments are updated. At this point, most are hardwood floors, which I appreciate; they are much easier to clean than the carpet.

Most parking is tandem. Each apartment is assigned two spots, which worked out perfectly for my roommates.

Please avoid 403 Landfair at all costs. The manager, Marko, is absolutely rude and unreasonable. Everyone in the building feels afraid that he will irrationally yell at them for very small minor issues like parking or noise, even though ironically his dog yaps all day long and attacks other dogs on the street. It is not worth the headache, I wish someone had warned me.

This place is often extremely dirty and there is trash in the hallways that doesn't get removed or cleaned for weeks at a time. There is also no recycling, which for a building this size is irresponsible.

The actual apartment has a nice looking interior but it's not worth the other issues in my opinion.

Manager is good if he likes you (Marko) - responds to emails quickly, gets stuff fixed quickly. Rent is a bit pricey for the size, but that's because it has good location (right across the street from dorms). If you live on the side facing 424 Kelton (vs. the side facing Pink Palace), it's mostly pretty quiet. Only one elevator in the building, so it can take a while, but usually it's not bad.

This apartment has a great location. It's easy to visit friends in the dorms, frats, and other apartments, and it's a very short walk to campus. The people are great and make for an awesome living experience. The landlord is very receptive to the needs of the tenants. This year, he's painted the walls, replaced the flooring, and upgraded our microwave and refrigerator. Any time we've reported problems in the apartment, he's been very quick to get it fixed.

I absolutely LOVE this apartment! Really great location (VERY close to campus, I'd say closer than most of the dorms), and pretty central to where other friends are living in the apartments or fraternities. There are little balconies for each apartment which is nice. The management is great- landlord is prompt and very accessible for taking care of things and replacing old things (we got a brand new microwave this year!) Overall, great, cozy place to live and extremely suitable for college needs.

Wow. I am really surprised at the reviews for this place. This place really isn't that bad, and its a steal for the area. Despite its not so appealing exterior, the insides of these apartments are pretty nice. The rooms are all 2 bedroom 2 full bath apartments and are pretty spacious (at least compared to all my friend's apartments). I lived here for a year and had only minor problems, but they were always fixed pretty quickly. Also, it is SUPER close to campus which was fantastic. AND, it came with 2 parking spots, and all for a pretty decent price.
