Hi, Loading...

Feb 2021: Feb 2021 Ok Please management DO SOMETHING about the tenants with dogs not picking up the dog shit that is now everywhere on the grounds. These ignorant people do not respect the nice grounds-fine them or evict them or you will lose the decent tenants. The dog shit smell is sickening. Building C 110 is one of the worst offenders. You know it, you see it daily so fine them twice a day!
Oct 2019: Don’t apply to live here!! The place is horrible. They will always find ways to make money off of you and tell you false information. The staff doesn’t know anything and will tell you multiple things. One person says this and the other says that. The manager does not care if his employees tell you false information and will not work with residents. They don’t care about their residents! Review from Google
Aug 2019: Do not be fooled by the low price, you are not safe living here. PARENTS- do not let your children live here. I have never felt more unsafe than when I lived at the Armstrong. At the end of May, I was in my apartment when a mob of 50 or so people were physically fighting and yelling right outside my building and a gun was fired. When I brought my concerns to management in an email, I was never received a reply. The was a mass email telling residents to walk in pairs at night and report any misconduct to the after hours number. Unfortunately, walking with a friend isn’t going to save me from a bullet and no one answered the after hours number when I called several times that night to report the fight. When I reported the gun shot to the 911 dispatcher, she immediately knew that my location was the Armstrong because of all the violence that has occurred in this area and even commented “another shooting at the Armstrong?” The violence has nothing to do with the “area” as management claims, but more to do with managements lack of action against residents clearly breaking their lease by engaging in violent and illegal activities Review from Google
Aug 2019: I have lived at this apartment for about half a year. The rent is the cheapest I’ve seen but the rates change every month (utilities). The apartment room in itself and the kitchen is pretty nice if it is clean and well-taken care of and if you have a maintenance problem, they usually take care of that as well. They finally replaced the beat up couches as well. That’s why I have given 3 stars. Now here’s where living at the Armstrong can be a nuisance. Some of the people living here are mental. It could be 3 a.m. and I hear people yelling and cursing (even when they’re alone) on a regular basis. There are shootings every other week, so be careful with that. I don’t know if the security here is really doing their job. I’ve put multiple online chat request and never got contacted from any of those so don’t waste your time typing. I’ve given the office calls where they told me they’ll get back to me, and never hear from them again Review from Google
Aug 2019: The management is very friendly, honest and willing to work threw any obstacles that affect you as a resident. Nice new renovations that make the place feel more open and modern. New gym equipment and fairly well maintained pool. The Armstrong is quiet at night and lively during the day With easy access to LSU. There are many restaurants, gas stations and grocery stores nearby for easy access. I recommend people to tour The Armstrong to see for themselves if living at The Armstrong is suitable for your rental needs. Review from Google
Jul 2019: I would not recommend this place. Son stayed here for sophomore year this past school year. Apartments are not in good shape, nothing like the pictures they advertise on the website. There was a broken/missing step leading to second floor that they took a very long time to repair. They also make it very ambiguous on the payments and true total cost of the rent with utilities. The final straw was recently upon the lease being up, and moving out, they come back with a "final" utilities payment of $91. I go back in the portal to pay it and they are charging a $17 convenience fee, even if I am going to do a bank draft. I was told there is no way around this fee, and they try to claim it is a credit card fee, which it isn't. Essentially a scam to get more money out of you. Avoid this trap. Review from Google
Jul 2019: So when I signed (which was about 5 months before I moved in) I was told that if I wanted to cancel I can just come fill out a paper and I’ll be let out of the lease. When I came to do so (about 2 months before move in day) the leasing agent that gave me the tour moved and they said her statement was false. Then the first roommates I had were FILTHY. There were gnats in the kitchen. Trash would pile up. I had to pay $300 to switch units. I complain several times and the process was an “investigation” and slow process. They were also big weed smokers. I feel like I shouldn’t have to pay to move from people that didn’t match my ROOMMATE SURVEY. The apartments are also old. Bugs get in and the bathroom ceiling over the shower fell in at one point. The apartments went by a previous name and they had a HORRIBLE reputation. I do like that the packages are held in the office, and I haven’t had a problem with the office staff Review from Google
Jun 2019: The WORSE place I have ever lived. I moved from the hated place to the worst place. I’m Leaving this place and my rent is free😂 the members of the place is sad, Bryant is bad, didn’t solve anything. My roomate is VERY dirty. The tub had rings around it, the face bowl was REALLY dirty. How do you get a ring around the face bowl? Asked them to move, they just kept saying “300 dollars” after we almost had a fight in the apartment the roomates would talk to the office, I told the office not to call me ANYMORE I still have a month of free rent. I’m leaving in July. I’ll be sure to take photos and post on here as well. Don’t move here😂I swear, I would leave this place now if I had the money. No lie. Then they call my phone and had an storied. One roomate has a pet and they checked my room, while the other one smokes weed. Then they say “everyone’s getting a fine” I’d be a dummy to pay the arm strong any of my money I could go on, but I’m sure you guys get the point Review from Google

May 2019: This is NOT a safe place to live!! There have been numerous incidents of cars being broken into, a robbery at gun-point, shots being fired, and one instance of a 22 year old being shot dead on premises. A pizza man was robbed at my doorstep at 1am and the cops came knocking on my door asking questions. All of this happened in the single year I've been staying here. I was willing to give them a break and put some of those instances behind me, so I idiotically renewed my lease. A month later I hear a gunshot at 3 in the morning! I had enough and went to the front office to cancel my lease renewal. They refused me and are trying to force me to stay in an entirely unsafe living environment. Now they are making their prices extremely low to try and entice people to live here. IT'S A SCAM. FIND SOMEPLACE ELSE!!! Review from Google

Apr 2019: not recommended at all! The staffs are not friendly and some of them are really rude and disrespectful! They don't care your time and money at all! don't believe their words, they lie a lot! For any maintenance issue, you should report multiple times to have them finally take a look at your problem! The buildings have lots of BIG ROACHES! You can always smell weed around the complex! It is awful! It is annoying! Review from Google

Mar 2019: Absolute garbage. The make soooo many irresponsible mistakes that cost their residents valuable time and money, and they refuse to pay for it! DO NOT LIVE HERE! Review from Google
Mar 2019: Never ever even consider living here. not worth it. Yeah it’s cheap but this place is literally disgusting. Mold, bug infestations, nasty carpets and ceilings. Terrible living conditions. If you have allergies, you will be miserable because there’s mold everywhere in here. When you call they act like we’re idiots and just spray bleach on the mold, which kills it TEMPORARILY and leaves the whole apt smelling like chemicals. Sometimes I’ll be laying in bed when a spider or some other bug falls on me. Not to mention when I shower the ceiling legit falls on me in white globs. Nothing like washing your hair and feeling like a bird just pooed on you. Also red film appears in the shower, sink, and toilet which might have something to do with the pH of the water in Baton Rouge, but it collects and turns black. I’m a fairly clean person and I’ve never had such a problem with random black/red gunk appearing in my shower, sink, and toilet so often Review from Google
Mar 2019: The place is nice and the lease is reasonable. Only 10 mins walk from LSU with active school bus shuttle every 10 mins. Review from Google

Sep 2018: leather on couches ripped, stains on ceiling and floors, mold everywhere in bathroom.we have emailed management multiple times then went in person twice, they told us to email, then ignored us again!!! affordable but only bc the AC broke 4 times within a year, you can’t open the stove without opening the fridge, the whole apartment smells like gas when u try to cook, and the internet is awful. don’t forget the multiple roaches, ladybug infestation (literally 50) and a mouse in the closet one time! Review from Google
Aug 2018: The Armstrong is a great place to enjoy your college experience. It’s affordable and the amenities are excellent. Management and maintenance work very diligently to solve residual issues. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Review from Google
Jun 2018: I've been living at The Armstrong for two years now and I truly love it! I lived here under the previous management (American Campus) and saw the transformation when the new management came in (Campus Advantage). The problems I've ever encountered have been dealt promptly by management or maintenance. The rates are some of the lowest in BR and I personally feel you get a lot for what you pay for with all the renovations. Review from Google

Jun 2018: Awesome renovations and a great price for students on a budget. It takes a little love, but it is overall a great place. I have no major complaints! Close to campus and food too. Review from Google
Apr 2018: I am sure the servies and staffs suck. don't believe their words. If you want to waste time and money, Enjoy there. Review from Google
