The Curve at Melrose markets itself as a luxury apartment but I promise you itâs the complete opposite. Letâs start with management. Since June 2023, the front office staff has changed three times. The current community manager, Jade, has an awful personality. She is rude and delayed the repair to our drywall by lying to the regional manager about the extent of the damage. Hugo and Steve are the maintenance men. Steve is great and always friendly. Hugo has an anger issue and would benefit from taking classes. Heâs come into my home and yelled at my sister after a shelf in our fridge was loose. He fully broke it off and said that he was going to charge us for the damage. He has a history of this explosive behavior. Iâve never met Shalysa M but she is commenting on my sisterâs review saying that we were evicted. We were never evicted. In fact, Bowen Johnson is the regional property manager who agreed to let us break our lease because of the various flaws here. He has been quite understanding of the situation but that is likely because he has other things to worry about (the ongoing legal battle between the Curve and the state of Arizona- look it up). Shalysa, I see youâre busy responding to everyoneâs reply. When was the last time youâve visited this property hmm? Would you live here?
The Curve will scam you by only showing the model unit and not allowing you to view the hallways where your actual unit will be. The hallways are painted a horrid shade of blue and green, similar to a Nickelodeon game show. The carpets are filthy and the halls smell like garbage. Residents allow their dogs to defecate and piss in these halls. Outside of the main entry to the building smells like a zoo because many residents do not pick up after their animals. Iâve seen Hugo, the maintenance man, pouring fabuloso along the rocks to hide the smell. The gym does not have complete sets of weights and there have been many times when the treadmills arenât working. This apartment is not accessible to those with disabilities. There is no ramp in front of the main door which makes it extremely difficult to access. The same goes for the back entrance near the elevator. No ramp so you have to walk all the way down the sidewalk and around to get to your car. There are no trash cans in the front which encourages people to litter. Another thing they donât tell you is that because of the popularity of the location, there is almost never any parking in the front. There are clubs surrounding the apartment and a new shopping center nearby. If you enjoy your peace of mind and cleanliness, do not live here. Youâre better off at a motel 6. Cheers
