Spectrum

Hi there,
We moved in mid April and it’s time for a review. First of all, I wanted to give the place a 4,5 star review, but couldn’t. There have been a few instances where something was not up to par but it had NOTHING to do with the management team.
SW GAS employee basically barged in to our place without announcing who he was or where he was from. If my fiancé would have been home alone, that would have been pretty intimidating.
Apartment it self was so clean that we had trouble getting the smell of new carpet out. Everything has been great and the little things that were «wrong», (read scuff marks here and there and 3 pin holes form previous tenant, which we are using anyway), have been noted on the property report.
Evelyn, Haley, Hally, Greg, Ceasar, Juan and Matt are all great to deal with. Had 2 small issues with blinds which resulted in operator error (read my fault) which was graciously handled.
Small confusion in regards to assigned parking spots that was quickly resolved and we had a gate issue that was fixed. (some one decided to tap the gate on the way out)
They organise all kinds of community events. We’ve had Margarita Mondays, Cinqo de Mayo celebration and tonight is game night. There’s Yoga, Pilates and the pool area is currently undergoing some renovations. We’re looking forward to that being done so we can use the area. (Construction has not created any noise for us and we are in the building above the management office)
Gym is great and 24/​7, just wish the resident’s lounge would be open at night so we could watch the playoffs (I’m too cheap to buy cable). Everything you need is within a 5 minute drive and I can be on the strip within 15 minutes. If you use Über/​Lyft to get to places you can be there for between 20 – 25 bucks.
Neighbours are great, haven’t had any issues whatsoever. The only thing we hear is doors in the hallway that lead to the stairwell when they latch, that’s it. The units are alarm ready, you just need to pay for connection to a security company.
Bit on the expensive side, but I feel we’ve gotten decent value for money for it and the most important thing is that my fiancé feels safe.
Side note, if you are up stairs, make sure your furniture is flatpack or not on the large side, the stairways are not made for big frames and couches. Pay for delivery, you’ll do yourself a favour. We had some damage on our furniture moving in, but that was the moving crew.
We did fit a cali king mattress up the stairs with ease, just remember, a mattress is flexible, a box set is not.
I haven’t been all over the complex, so I can’t comment on the other stuff that people have said below. It’s getting in to summer and during the cool hours I keep my balcony door open which brings in a nice cool breeze. Haven’t had any major bug problems other then a few fruit flies due to fruit being out in the open.

I hope you don’t have a large couch, beware. Ours wouldn’t fit around the corner once inside the door. We had to give a $ 900 couch to the movers. Also, they have gas stoves and water here and because SW GAS is a LOSER company and can’t schedule connection until after they have a copy of your signed lease, and then it will be another 5 days before they can supposedly come out, be prepared to have NO hot water for a shower or laundry, and no stove top for cooking for at least a WEEK! We love our apartment and Evelyn in the office, but beware of these issues!

When my partner and I first moved in it was great. Got along with all the apartment management and maintenance people. Then two months in it got real the General Manager for the apartments got real shady with her tenants. Would ignore issues or problems with apartments and would not acknowledge wrong doing by staff (Maintenance People) there have been on several occasions that we noticed someone entering our apartment while we were gone. So we bought a security camera and spotted one of the maintenance people entering our place with out authorization. We brought this up to the General Manager and she ignored the issue. The apartment is full of the General Managers family members and many times receiving a discount for their stay in the apartments where the rest of us pay full value for our places. I would never stay in an apartment managed by Pinnacle every again. I feel sorry for the owner of the Property he is loosing such great tenants cause of an irresponsible Management Team. The only saving grace for the location is the Assistant Manager.

Take your business elsewhere. This place has the worst property management EVER. Move in was a complete joke (they tried to give us a totally different apartment than the one we put a hold deposit on two months prior) because our unit wasn’t ready EVEN THOUGH there was almost a month between our move in date and the previous residents. Now we’re on day three without a dryer and wet (now smelly) clothes waiting to dry…

we moved in these apartments in April 2015 the first 2 months started great with no issues. but after that it went to crap. we had issues with are neighbors, it was originally 2 people living there and now there is 4 adults and 2 kids and 2 babys. I made a complain 2 times and nothing has been done. We also have issues with are fire alarms we would be sleeping and they would randomly go off at 5am, maintenance said it was just low batteries but they must of replaced them 3 times in a month and it didnt make a difference. I later found out that when the downstairs neighbor would take a hot shower that the steam would raise up to are place and set off are alarm I than also learned that when i shower and leave the bathroom door open that the alarm would go off. Than if you like to cook, dont expect to be able to fry any food because the alarm will go off as well. I cooked bacon and 2 min after throwing on the pan the alarm went off. And maintenance again says low battery. Last thing is we have a roach problem, we are both extremely clean but we still have a roach issue. The roaches come out of the drains so you gotta make sure to cover them when not using unless you want a lot of roaches .
Dont move into these apartments
we pay 1260 a month which is very high for such a crappy experience

We were so excited to move into our place. The unit itself is very pretty, spacious & for the most part nicely upgraded compared to what else is out there.
The people who run the office are extremely nice. This is nothing against them however when we first moved in everything was perfect, until they started letting trashy, ghetto people move in all in & around our building. The upsetting part is the walls are very thin, I can hear everything going on from both sides. Including partying, loud music, couples fighting, conversations & even one day I was trying to «wake up» went into my bathroom and stood there quietly for a moment. I was shocked that I could hear the man next door peeing in his toilet. Kinda laughable.
My biggest issue now is, we didn’t live here last summer, we moved in closer to the end of the summer when it was getting cooler outside. Not knowing we were gonna have a huge annoying problem with mosquitoes in our home. I’ve done everything possible, it seems like after it rains they are living in the walls some where due to stagnate water & they get in our unit. I’ve been bite 4 times now, every day I find at least one, if not more.
The office basically told me that since they fly they can’t do anything about it. They gave us a light to plug in that the mosquito has to fly into to die. Lol. Now what do you think the percentage of it flying into the light? Slim to none.
We won’t be resigning out lease here. For $ 1200 a month, we can live some where else that’s more peaceful & bug free.

This complex use to be good. I’ve been here since October of 2013 and at the beginning it was alright my roommate and I had awful neighbors they were soon kicked out, we had a great security team that I saw constantly driving, walking, walking their K-​9 unit it was great security. The complex was relatively «quiet» maybe I didn’t know the true noise because my room faced the very back.
I’m in my new place and I’m right on the corner. It is SO loud people have no respect for others who live there and it’s awful. I work extremely early in the morning so I go to sleep early and people are always revving the engines of their «cool» cars, loitering outside my window yelling and screaming, I can hardly sleep! There is also absolutely NO security at all. I haven’t seen the security company in months so that’s that. The people who live above me are extremely loud it sounds like their rolling around on a rolling chair all over their place.
The maintenance gentlemen are extremely nice and very efficient when I place an order in and once they fix what needs to be fixed they check up a few days later asking how everything was.
The only other thing is the trash!!! Sometimes their is trash EVERYWHERE! I walk every morning and for the past about week the SAME to-​go box is sitting outside on the side walk, the same slurpee cup is still in the bushes, the dog poop overflows sometimes and it one looks awful and I smells horrid too! They need to do something about that.
I don’t think paying $ 1100 a month is worth it for this place. They really need to buckle down on the things that matter.

The place has gone downhill since I moved in. My motorcycle had an attempted theft and then was actually stolen within three months. When I asked the leasing office for surveillance video to see when my motorcycle left the property, I was told that the security cameras only face the walkways and the pool. I was sold on this property because of the ²⁴⁄₇ security and the surveillance cameras and they completely lied to me. Being a single girl living alone, I definitely did not feel safe living there anymore. My maintenance issues never got fixed and the construction in the place is awful. Worst apartment experience ever. My lease is finally up and I’m out of there in a real apartment and I couldn’t be happier.

Heard they’re doing renovations now, but I doubt it’ll be any kind of upgrade from what me and my boyfriend have now. First I would like to say that the apartments look absolutely beautiful when I first moved in.
After a couple of months of being here. EVERYTHING BROKE.
Our washing machine broke the first month we got here, had to call someone up and fix it.
Heater didn’t work properly. My boyfriend and I were freezing for a good month before it started to get warm around the place.
The microwave handle. Wtf. Just completely broke off one day while I was warming something up. Made of cheap plastic material.
The toilet stops working properly and water starts spraying from the inside and ends up drowning my bathroom before I even notice. WTF.
The blinds DO NOT open or close, they just click.
Right when we walk in. ALL carpet. So of course the first couple steps into the apartment you can definitely see where everyone stepped in to take off their shoes. Who’s freaking idea was that?!
The island in our kitchen is crooked. Don’t know how they messed that one up.
TO MAKE IT EVEN MORE WORSE. I HAVE THE WORST NEIGHBOR.
When we first moved in they called and filed a noise complaint. EVEN THOUGH WE WERENT HOME. (My boyfriend and I both worked graveyard at the time.) Got a call from the office the next morning to let us know we had a complaint. Oh my freaking God. On top of that we hear those neighbors complain every morning. EVERY MORNING. Hearing the husband call his wife a b*tch. And all sorts of names. The neighbors baby is basically my alarm clock. I hear it crying its head off every freaking morning. My freaking goodness. The walls are so extremely thin you can hear the next door neighbors taking a number 2! UGH.
So glad my lease ends in two months.
nice place but NOT worth 1155 a month. PLUS they keep sending me mails saying «resign your lease for only $ 1195 a month!»
This is the second time they’ve tried to raise my rent.
Can’t wait to get out of here.

The place is clean and cute but for 1200 $ in Las Vegas it should be.
If you want a quiet place to live don’t move here. You hear everything from every person around you. The courtyard is a echo so heels and voices carry thru every paper thin window in your apt.
I’m glad I only signed a 6 months lease and it’s about over. Never would move back here again.

I currently live at Spectrum and am waiting for my lease to end so I can move. These apartments absolutely have a bug problem. I’ve asked to have exterminators come twice and still have bugs. The new management team is unhelpful and incompetent. Of the few times I’ve asked for help there was none plus bogus fees and incorrect/​inaccurate information. For some reason it takes 4 days for them to change a light bulb in my apartment and three calls to fix my broken toilet. Currently I am waiting for a call back from the complex manager. I won’t hold my breath. I’m sure you will have a good experience moving in here like these people who are giving 5 star reviews but good luck after that. If there was a 0 star button I’d use it

BED BUGS!!!
Be aware! They have it part of their lease to check for bed bugs! Why? Because the infestation is real! This place is HORRIBLE! Disgusting. && management is only good for telling you «you signed the lease, it’s your responsibility now. Legally»… They’re the most careless people EVER.
Do not rent here. The most disgusting place ever. Don’t let the outside looking pretty cool you.
You have been warned.

They’re inconsistent with their pet policies. It floors me to see that they just added a sign outside with a cat and a freaking GOLDEN RETRIEVER when they don’t even accept that breed. It’s ridiculous. There are at least 2 pitbulls, a dalmation, 2 labs, and a mastiff that I’ve seen AND heard in the complex and staff act like those are ALL service animals. Whatever. The maintance staff aren’t trained well and take forever to get around to fixing stuff and forget it if it’s something urgent like your toilet or washer/​dryer. So glad I’m out of there now. I wouldn’t wish this apartment living on my greatest enemy.

Spectrum is a great community to live in. I love the area and my two story townhome is an awesome unit. They recently updated everything to include dark wood style floors. Around the place there are plenty of stores, restaurants and things to do. Also, the ladies in the leasing office are always nice and willing to help when you need anything. If you are looking for a place on the Sw side of town or close to Summerlin, look no further!

I was out looking for apartments in the Russell and 215 area. I was really impressed with the level of service I received from Misty she was courteous, attentive and informative. The community is not really large like most apartments but it had a very good sense of community. I would recommend you see Misty she will make you feel right at home.

These apartments show well but once you move in the real nightmare begins.
They are new and built as cheaply as possible. You will hear everything your neighbor does, including going to the bathroom. The buildings shake when any door is closed, makes me wonder if this place could handle an earthquake. The undesirable people that live here are the biggest problem. I can only imagine what this place will look like when the bus starts stopping in front of it. Residents here leave garbage outside their doors, park wherever they want — their vehicles are mostly crap so they don’t care, let their pets shit all over and not clean it up, leave gates propped open and the list goes on.
Nice attractive move in offers and cheap rent = you get what you pay for. They get 2 stars, 1 because I have too and the other for being close to the 215 freeway. That’s it.
**Update** New owners and management and if you can believe it they are worse than the previous ones. Maintenance is a complete joke. They don’t know how to fix anything correctly. New people being allowed to move in are trash. The complex across the street that is finally being finished has coated everything in dirt and you get to listen to heavy machinery early in the morning 6 days a week. They now get 1 star. My lease is ending and I cannot wait to be out of here!
