Jan 2019: Great ward. Apartments are close to a bus and grocery store, so that’s good, and the hot water and plumbing works. Poor insulation and toilets take forever to flush, but overall good quality for the price. Review from Google Jan 2019: It has been a fun place to live and cheap. But it isn't the nicest apartment on the block. Somethings don't work as well, but they do get fixed quickly if you let them know. Cleaning checks are also pretty strict Review from Google Jan 2019: The management here is awesome! They are so quick to fix things and to make things happen. They also host parties and things so we can get to know one another! Its been really awesome living here! Review from Google Jan 2019: Management here at Brookview is amazing. They are very responsive, helpful, and willing to assist. Their goal is to help tenants have a great living experience at Brookview, and they do an excellent job! Review from Google Jan 2019: The apartments aren't great, but they're very affordable, which is mostly what I'm looking for as a college student nowadays. Management is fair, and the apartments are within easy walking distance of campus. No complaints here. Review from Google Dec 2018: I had the opportunity to live at Brookview during the fall 2018 semester at BYU. It has by far been my favorite place to live and was an amazing experience! I would highly suggest living here.
The ward is amazing and makes for a very social environment! If you are looking for a place to live make sure you check Brookview out! Review from Google Dec 2018: You definitely get what you pay for here. It is the nicest place, but it is well-managed. It is decently clean but old. The location is nice and there is a bus that takes you right to BYU campus. Review from Google Aug 2018: I would not recommend living here at all.
The 2 best things about Brookview are the manager and the maintenance man. They are very nice and care a lot about their residents. However, they have a very tough job because everything in Brookview apartments is falling apart and in terrible shape. The apartment units are old, the walls are moldy, the faucets are leaky, even the parking has huge potholes, cracks, and is falling apart. While this is the worst apartment I've lived in during my time in Provo, it is also the one that has charged the highest rent (for a Fall-Winter contract we pay between $330 and $340 per month). There are many other apartments in Provo where you can pay that same rate, have decent non-moldy walls, an apartment that isn't falling apart, a basketball court (I mean a real basketball court, not just a spot in the parking Review from Google Aug 2018: I have absolutely loved my time in Brookview. I'm in one of the older, not yet renovated apartments and it is definitely worth the money. Everything works and when something isn't working the maintenance is on top of things. What has made this such a great stay for me is definitely the people, the close proximity to campus, and the amazing ward! I think Brookview is competitively priced, and considering what I pay for rent and utilities, it is a great deal! Review from Google Jun 2018: I lived here for three years. Management was always kind and looked for ways to make Brookview feel like a community. Spacious apartments and even with turnover every fall, the people here are generally down-to-earth and good neighbors. That being said, the male apartments have a history of moisture problems during the winter and the parking lot was full of craters for as long as I lived there. Maybe they fixed that. Review from Google Jun 2018: The management is super awesome, the maintenance crew were very responsive, and the culture is just a very positive and uplifting ward! :) It’s right next to Joaquin Park which makes it easy to have super fun activities and barbecues, there are houses nearby where other ward members live that are fun to visit, and the utilities all work pretty great! Google Fiber is available, and all in all, it’s just a fun friendly apartment place to live. Review from Google Jun 2018: The people are fantastic. Everything works at these apartments, and if something doesn't work you can report it. They fix it pretty quickly. The apartments are a bit older and so they aren't as nice as newer ones. Review from Google Mar 2018: The 2 best things about Brookview are the manager and the maintenance man. They are very nice and care a lot about their residents. They both work very hard to ensure that everyone enjoys their stay at Brookview. However, they have a very tough job because everything in the apartment buildings is falling apart and in terrible shape.

The building is really old, which can cause a lot of problems, but management is really on top of taking care of any issues that you have. They really want to make sure you enjoy living there, and they will go far to take care of your issues. So if you ever have problems with things, be sure to report it right away! And the ward is great, just really good people.
That being said, because of the issues of only being one bathroom and being in an older building, you’re gonna want to snag one of the cheaper contracts to make living here worth it.
All in all, I’d give this place 3.5 stars because of the caring management and great ward mixed with the aging building that’s still in the process of being fixed up. Hopefully in the next year or so the building will be fixed up and this will be n Review from Google Jan 2018: I had great roommates and good friends, that was the only benefit of living here. Mostly it's too expensive. There are plenty of places off 9th East much more reasonably priced. My roomies stuff started molding, and maintenance left bleach footprints on his pillowcase. To be fair, they did lower rent that month. The faucet in the one bathroom (for six people) never really worked. Maintenance came probably six or seven times to get it to stop leaking, (they took their sweet time, it'd hold for a week and start again. At one point the water just wouldn't stop at all, it's a miracle they did something about it before the whole place flooded. Our stove-top has never really worked properly, the one time they tried fixing it they broke the back part with the knobs, and it still didn't work. The blinds are installed backwards. The laundry mat has ha Review from Google Oct 2017: The monthly rent is too high. Brookview is old and falling apart. In my first two months of living there, my roommates and I submitted over 10 maintenance requests for things like faucets leaking, oven not working, TV cable not working, etc. The maintenance crew just does a "band-aid" fix rather than repairing the problem. For a Fall/Winter contract, I paid $345 per month, which is WAAAAYYYY overpriced. For that amount of money, you could find something a lot better than Brookview. Do yourself a favor and don't live here.
Review from 10/25/17 on Google Oct 2017: This was a good place to live when I was going to school and sticking to a budget. Management was always really nice and their maintenance tries really hard to get things fixed quickly which I always appreciated. It is a little older of a complex so maintenance is going to happen regularly. It's a good location, just a few blocks south of campus and right by a park. Walking distance to downtown provo as well. Walls are cinder block so you can't hang many things up which was a bummer to me. But overall it was a good place, and you get what you pay for.
Review from 10/19/17 on Google Oct 2017: I wish I could recommend this complex but I cannot. It is inexpensive (I'm told prices went up after I moved out), but in the end problems like appliances that never worked, the water getting shut off periodically (sometimes with little to no notice, although I know that Management tried very hard to notify us ahead of time), and lack of storage space made it less than favorable. I have never wanted to post a negative review but I would not live at Brookview again.
Review from 10/12/17 on Google Mar 2017: Not kidding with the name! You can see the brook easy from here! I can almost skip rocks from this distance! Review from Google
