"**Avoid Nicholes Square Apartments at All Costs!**
Let me start by saying: AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE! My experience at Nicholes Square Apartments in Bay City has been nothing short of a complete disaster.
First, they showed me a clean model apartment that looked decent, but when I moved in, I was assigned a unit that was an absolute nightmare. It stank of dog urine, was infested with roaches and ants, and was completely unfurnished—all for a staggering $745 a month plus ridiculous fees. How can they justify charging that much for a place that is clearly unlivable?
Then there are the fees. They hit me with unexplained charges, and when I asked for a breakdown, I got nothing. Does this property even pay its share for utilities related to common areas? It’s hard to tell, considering the lack of transparency!
As for amenities, the lease states I should have access to all of them: the gym, the mailbox, the pool. But guess what? They provided none of that! It’s all a bait-and-switch tactic.
Let’s talk about electricity. I paid $313 to Reliant for two months, and then they had the audacity to charge me an additional $96 for electricity on top of that. When I reached out to them with detailed receipts to dispute this charge, they completely ignored me. It’s unacceptable!
To top it all off, I clearly communicated on my first day that I would be moving out on August 19th. Instead of acknowledging this, they refused to accept my notice and charged me $416 until the end of August. How is this legal?
I’ve attached all the necessary documents, including my emails and itemized bills, but it’s clear that they don’t care about resolving these issues. All I received was a check 0f $930 instead of $1250 for my initial deposit, and they’ve ignored my requests for adjustments.
Do yourself a favor and steer clear of Nicholes Square Apartments. You deserve a living situation that treats you with respect and integrity—not this nightmare!"
"Nichols Square Apartments has been my home for the past almost four years now! The first place I moved into after moving out of my parents' and I remember the leasing office made it very easy for me and they were accommodating and understanding. It's a peaceful community to be a part of. Have enjoyed my time here, thank you!"
"DO NOT LIVE HERE!!!! Place is infested with fruit flies and roaches. Water damage and mold everywhere. Told the office I was moving out but apparently they didnt write it down and now are forcing me to pay 2 more months after my lease ended. DO NOT MOVE IN HERE!
After no response for a week, they finally responded to my email and said that I still had to pay even after emailing them a copy of my WRITTEN NOTICE TO MOVE OUT!!
This place is awful and ran by horrible management. AGAIN DONT MOVE HERE, THEY WILL SCAM YOU!!!!"
"I’ve lived here for three and a half years and by the end of our stay, we were definitely ready to leave. Our first two years here were acceptable since we knew the situation here was temporary, but by year three the apartment was truly showing its age. And that’s the real problem with Nichols Square. These are forty year old apartments that haven’t been maintained in any sort of decent condition - they’ve had repeated coats of paint slapped on the walls, new carpet put in, and some other cosmetic repairs done, but the lack of major renovations have contributed to major issues.
These major issues consist of: mold coming through the paint due to moisture in the walls, wasps coming out of the actual fireplace because the flue was crooked and chimney grating hasn’t been maintained, an air conditioner that’s over ten years old breaking five times during the course of the lease, unknown leakages under the carpet which caused more mold/mildew, foundation issues causing multiple cracks which allowed pests to come in.
It hasn’t been a peaceful three years.
GWR - and to be clear, I place sole responsibility for conditions here on GWR’s shoulders, they’re the ones with the money, management just does for us with whatever pitiful amount their yacht-owning corporate overlords dole out to them - clearly thinks that Bay City is in the back of beyond and sees no financial benefit to restoring these apartments to a fit state for long-term living.
So here’s my advice. If you want to live somewhere for six months in Bay City, you can stay here at Nichols Square. The pools are good, your mail will get here, folks are friendly, management is very responsive and kind. The paint on your tub will stay fresh for awhile, and there’s usually hot water when the water isn’t being repaired. Watch out for the plentiful wasps, you should be fine if you don’t have a chimney. The raccoons are adorable, maybe adopt one of the hundreds of stray cats that losers leave behind when they move? But then it’s best if you find a new place to stay rather soon, because your apartment will fall apart, the insects will notice the cracks in your place and move in, you will get respiratory issues and constant headaches from the mold, and there won’t be anything you can do about it because you are required to sign a mold waiver when you move in, and the mold’s been covered up by the paint that’s been put over it. Good luck!"
"It is a good place to rent, I recommend it. Angie Balbas helped me and explained things very well. Quiet, safe and good facilities."
