Marquis at Stonebriar

Its been 18 months since i moved into Marquis. This is a good, safe and friendly community. The leasing staff is very cooperative and the whatever Maintenance requests that I put on were done on time. I like the neighborhood around here since it is calm and safe. With no worries, i can jog around even during midnight as i never saw any safety issues. There is a golf course and a lake next to the apartment. The layout of the apartments are nice. I have renewed by 3^rd lease now and i am happy to stay here. Only concern is, some apartments are old and needs some renovation. Rents during renewal are going pretty high may be because of the demand. Other than that, I can recommend this community to all who is looking for a calm, safe and affordable apartment.

I have lived here more than once. I keep finding myself coming back to this complex. The reason I have left at the end of my lease is to try out somewhere else just for a better location for shopping, restaurants, etc. The only downside is there’s nothing around besides a Kroger since its placed in the midst of a residential area. But that keeps traffic low. I only had one problem living here and it was a noise complaint which was resolved timely. It is a very quiet complex. Neighbors are friendly. The grounds are clean. Its a good safe area to live. I would recommend it for sure.

I recently just moved out of these apartments and wanted to give my review. While these aren’t the nicest apartments in the area, I really loved them. My only reasoning for even moving there to begin with is because my family lives across the street & I needed to be close due to certain circumstances. I was surprised at how quiet the area is. The pond is really relaxing. My neighbors were really nice & I never had issues with loud neighbors. The staff was great. Anytime I had a service request, it was done within 24 hours. The location of these apartments is so convenient to the highways & shopping & restaurants. I definitely would recommend them.

Please please don’t come stay here.
They nickel and dime you for every single thing and the quality of service received here is pathetic.
The leasing office staff is very rude and racist.
Every time I open a maintenance ticket the team comes in messes things further.
They have this apparently (COOL) valet trash but not once have they picked up trash from my doorstep.
I pay 20 $ a month to throw trash by myself.
Also the laundry in the apartment is messed up. They are old systems which are not even being changed or repaired. Also they are not even keeping the pool and gym clean.
No pet rules being followed as well. A dog took a nice dump near my apartment door and had no choice but to clean it myself.
In short I wont renew my lease.

I moved in about mid-​June, and needed a place within a week to move into. They had a few one bedrooms available, and they were within the price range I was working with at that time. My how that has changed.
I was offered to forgo the amenities tour if I wanted, but I figured why not. I was then shown one of the empty apartments; they only have one layout for one bedroom. The downstairs units have addition closet space under the upstairs unit’s stairway. I liked having the extra space to store my camping gear from the elements.
I’m very happy with my move-​in. There were some issues at first; and maintenance was good about fixing them. The only issues I’ve had with them are;
— If the water coming out of the walls is from the overflow in the tub then you need to fix the pipes.
— I put a request in to have my sink drain checked, and they replaced the tub drain. The request said sink. I get it; he was in there a few times for the tub. And he actually DID replace the tub drain, which had the slightest leak. The issue was fixed immediately.
Is that bad? Not at all.
They let me borrow a dolly to move some furniture, and one even helped me carry my couch in. They also say hi when they are around. Maintenance is never perfect, but these guys are nice and have handled what I needed fixed.
I don’t have any bug or pest issues; then again I’m a clean person and have 2 cats. With fields nearby that can be an issue.
My neighbors are very nice. Everyone that has lived there has been pleasant to live by. Even people that walk their dogs say hello.
A LOT of families live here, but I kind of like that. I laughed at the kids in the parking lot playing. They don’t damaging anything, or behave mischievously. There are some people my age, I’m not that old but not in college anymore, so it s nice to see some ladies at the pool as well. The pool is nice too, and seems like everyone enjoys it.
However, I do have issues with parents letting their kids run around the pool with no adult. Or the parents that drink at the pool while their kids are playing there too. I see this as dangerous, but it’s not the apartment’s fault. Nor is it a major dysfunction of the pool area. They do, apparently, enforce the pool closing time, as I found out twice. They’re nice about it. However, they aren’t as good about unlocking the pool in the morning.
PROS:
— Beautiful and quiet area.
— Packages can be delivered to your apartment by the office staff (for those of us that work later than the office is open.)
— Friendly staff.
— Community events.
— Decent apartment gym
— Wild rabbits, it’s actually fun to see them at night or in the morning.
CONS:
— The prices are quite steep at about a grand for the smallest floor plan, and they have no negotiating power. I’m a great tenant and would image they’d want to keep us there, but they can’t budge on their pricing. This is why I’m moving out, and pretty much the only reason.
— I didn’t like the fact that I paid $ 500 for both my cats, and none of that is refundable. Normally you can get 50% of it back if they feel like parting with it. My pets are NOT messy and I have never had an issue getting that deposit back. Though, I don’t have to pay a monthly fee for them on top of my rent, there’s a silver lining even if it’s a very thin line. It IS a deterrent for pet owners such as me.
— The gate, particularly the right-​hand gate, is broken half the time.
— I’ve had to park in the middle of the front of the leasing office to check mail because all the front parking spaces are occupied. This is when the office is closed. They rent out the space inside and I have to park behind other cars to get to my mail. I find this to be a terrible inconvenience as a resident.
Overall I liked living here and I feel I made the right choice. Aside from taking a job in the Dallas area, and this location being pretty far from work and the gym, I’m moving because the over $ 1,000 for a 750 sq. ft. place is ridiculous. It might work for some, but I fail to see how it’s worth the price.
Update: Apparently I’m being charge $ 67 for additional cleaning. The invoice says there was a heavy pet smell after I moved out. I shampooed the carpets, and have NEVER been charged for additional cleaning in any regard with my pets or myself. There was no heavy pet smell, and I can be certain no one on the property can back-​up the claim of the cleaning company.
I spoke with Teresa in regards to the matter. After giving a reason that there could have been a musty smell, the busted water heater, and simply saying I could produce at least 3 witnesses to the fact that there was no «pet odor» she was kind enough to remove the charge.
I must emphasize that I Was kind to her with my emails. I didn’t use profanity or vulgar language, nor did I make accusations. I gave her facts which lead her to offer to remove the charges. I never was rude to her as she was just doing her job. I did thank her.

We lived at Marquis at Stonebriar for a year. We found the location to be very convenient close to Sam Rayburn. We stayed in a 3 bedroom place, it was pretty neat and clean. The cabinets and kitchen counter top look outdated and needs upgrades. They recently painted the exteriors. The maintenance folks are very prompt and fix any issue right away. There was this one time in summer when our AC stopped working and someone came late in the night to fix it. The pool and the fitness center is very nice. The neighbors are quite friendly and not noisy. The landscape is maintained well. It is nicely located next to the golf green and the lake and pleasant to walk or go jogging.
When we first signed up and moved in, the staff (Ms. Amanda, Ms. Elizabeth and Mr. Michael) who helped us with the paperwork and getting us signed up were very knowledgeable, helpful and very friendly. In the period of one year, there were atleast 4 different people who came and went and mostly did not know to answer even simple questions or sometimes gave contradictory answers. This is one thing we found very frustrating that they did not hold on to the wonderful staff.

We moved in a few weeks ago and while the staff are very friendly and respond to maintenance requests quickly I’m not sure I’d choose this place again.
I’m honestly on the fence, if the apartments were upgraded this place would be fab but the cabinetry needs upgrading as do the countertops (off-​white laminate, blah) and the appliances are white. If they had granite and stainless steel it would be perfect. The laminate wood floors look new though and are quite nice.
They do however have a great pool area and fitness center (one of the cleanest I’ve ever seen) and everyone is friendly. They also offer online bill pay and maintenance requests which is helpful if you only remember to call them late at night after a long day.
The 3 bed 2 bath we live in has ample storage, a laundry closet with plenty of shelf space and an open concept living /​dining /​kitchen. There’s a full linen closet for both baths and a generous balcony. No problems from our neighbors — everyone is really nice and our Sheltie, Sadie, gets to meet lots of doggy neighbors on walks.
It’s a great location in Frisco, close to pretty much everything you’d need including easy access to Hwy 121.
Overall a good place to live if only they’d update their tired 90’s kitchen /​bath décor it’d be perfect!

I just recently moved out of these apartments and I loved it. I lived in apts throughout the last several years but this place really takes care of people. They also allow you to pay online and submit service requests online. They were very responsive to my maintenance issues. I never had a problem with noise or even parking like at the place I lived before here. My neighbors kept to themselves and never bothered me. If I had to live in an apartment again, I would definitely come back here.
