Parkway Commons

Dirty… They have only one or two maintance… They should hire more maintancer persons keep this place clean. about people work in the office… they always saying they try hard… Bs Bs. They probably will say samething and change nothing even 10 years later i guess can’t wait move out. I live in many diffrent apartment. This place its worst ever

If you move here, you will loathe this place. From misplaced mail, dirty hallways, disengaged staff, loud noise, poor maintenance, and constantly overflowing garbage area, it CAN’T get worse. Even a glass door was missing for over two weeks. Do not let the nice website fool you. This place is filled with trash on the weekends and most of the week. I can’t emphasise it enough, please save yourself and your nerves the trouble and avoid this place!!!

Big Mistake… run as fast as you can away from this money grubbing place and its condescending management and irresponsible management company! Seriously… run!

I have lived with Parkway commons since March of 2014. So far, I have not had any negative experiences with Parkway Commons. The office staff has been very professional and has addressed every concern of mine with respect. When our dryer broke, the maintenance staff was out to my place within a day, had it fixed, and even verified that they had my permission to enter my apartment.
If anything, know that they DO NOT allow subleases — we asked for a sublease and they denied the request.
Please ignore other reviews on this page that talk about the 60 day requirement. Basically, it states in the lease that you must notify management if you are leaving 60 days before your departure. I would imagine that others didn’t read their lease when they signed it. I just let the office know today that I am leaving in March and they were professional and nice about it. We are moving downtown so my wife can be close to her school for her final year.
Besides that, I really enjoyed staying at Parkway Commons and would recommend it to someone looking for an apartment in Carol Stream.

run, run, run… omg, omg, omg. i can’t belive i have to give this place 1 star bc this place does not deserve 1 star, parkway commons is the worst place to live in, menagment is very bad !! if you want problems and drama this is the place for it !! when i moved in here 6 months ago my oven was not warking at all, sink and tub was clogged up in the bathroom, shower head had no water pressure, elevator never works, kids running up and down the hallways at midnight, those women from the office (jannette, jennifer/​jen) towed my car 3 times and always found a reason for it, they charge you for every little thing,$ 100 dish instalation, there is a extra $ 65 fee if you don’t have rentars insurance, i was upset about them towing my car that many times so i went to talk to them in the office and guess what ??? they called the police on me, i lost my job and i was only 1 week late with rent they raised my rent $ 400 so i called jennifer at the office and i told her i will pay by the end of the month, she said” i will get papers served to go to court and im gonna have to pay everything and plus court and attorney fees”…i could not sleep at night it was always to noisy but they started accusing me of making noises, jen from the office called me on the phone 2 times saying they are going to fine me for making noise and all those times i was not even at home so this list goes on and on and on and on… i have never lived in such a bad place like this !!! only if you are idiots you will rent at parkwway commons. i rather be homless and live on the street then live here !!!

DO NOT LIVE HERE! I know some people have bad experiences at different complexes, but Parkway Commons is just God awful. First off, when I moved in a little over a year ago, they lied about the entire unit. The staff member who was helping us was extremely rude and unhelpful. She showed us a model unit which was semi decent, for a good price, so that’s why we had signed a lease. When we moved in, our entire unit was disgusting. Our fans were broken, outlets didnt work, and we only had one AC unit, when we were promised more. The maintence staff wont come to fix anything. You have to call and harass the main office for mulitple weeks about problems before anything is done. The landlord is the rudest woman I have ever met. She doesnt care about anyone living there and is only there to scam you out of your money. They lie about everything on your lease and try and suck you out of money even when you are trying to move out. If you don’t notify them 60 days in advance to your lease ending, they will just keep charging you even if you don’t live there. Trust me the place is run down, disgusting, and an unhealthy place to live. They are constantly having expterminators there spraying because the buildings are filled with cockroaches. The heat and hot water never work. There is garbage, throw up, and poop everywhere in the hallways. DO NOT SIGN A LEASE HERE IT IS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD !

First off I would like to say I completely agree with the reviews previously written. This place is garbage. The management is money hungry, they will charge you for everything. Their newest charges to your rent is recycling. Yes… They charge you for recycling. Recycling is supposed to be free. What the fuck!
The walls are paper thin. I can hear everything. Kids running around, some Asshole playing his saxophone which effects sleep for all you light sleepers out there. (myself included)
When there is something broken in the apartment, it take about a week to get someone out to help. This place isn’t safe either because the front doors (which can only be opened by a key or key fob) are always broken. Anyone can just walk in. This place looks like a dump hole. They post nice pictures of Parkway commons on their website and Unilocal but I think it’s from alot time ago when they first opened or Photoshoped. Lol.
I have lived here for 3 years and I keep thinking they will change but management is horrid and these ridiculous changes keep happening and this place is getting worse.
My rent is around 800 a month with a washer in dryer in unit and THAT IS The only plus to this place. You can’t find cheap rent with a washer and dryer in unit around this area. Which is why I am still here. I do however plan on moving this winter. Again I have NOTHING nice to say about this place. I hope it burns to the ground after I leave.
Please Do not rent from here. You will be disappointed.

This apartment complex is just awful! Do not rent here, it will be a huge mistake. The management here does not fix anything properly (shoddy doesn’t even begin to describe it) and then makes up excuses and lies. The parking lot is covered in potholes and when it rains it’s like a swamp. Not to mention our ceiling leaks constantly and management has never fixed it. You will also see water spots all over the building. The elevator is constantly broken because they don’t want to put in the money to fix it properly. There are much better places in Carol Stream for around the same price where you wouldn’t have to deal with an incompetent office manager like Marisol Randazzo.

This is not a great place to live unless you are looking for dorm life. They towed my friends car without the warning they told us they give. I even saw then towing on Thanksgiving! I had BLACK mold growing in my apartment and they took a month to fix it. There is always a lot of trash on the ground and they office does not respond quickly.
