My daughter just moved into the Embassy Apartments and the staff was so patient and accommodating. Paige was so professional and friendly and showed us multiple apartments and options to meet her specific needs. The staff genuinely wanted our move in experience to be seamless. The building is clean and well kept. The view from the apartment is beautiful. I feel comfortable knowing she will be safe in her new home. I definitely recommend this beautiful apartment building. ...

Mellissa is absolutely amazing! She was so polite and sweet from the beginning to end in the tour process. She let us explore the building while we waited. She was more than happy to answer any questions we had. And it felt like she genuinely cared about taking care of guests and making sure they find exactly what they are looking for. I have rented at another Orosz property before and the staff is amazing. So I am definitely happy with living here. ...

I recently moved into The Embassy, and couldn’t be happier with my decision. The apartment and location are top-notch but what truly sets this place apart is the incredibly helpful staff, especially the front desk team. Paige went above and beyond to make my move-in seamless and easy, which included answering the many questions I had. Not only was she very helpful in the stress of moving but also friendly, professional, and ready to assist with any request. I highly recommend The Embassy to anyone looking for a new place to call home. ...

After living her for the past 4 years, I was sad to leave my home to move to another state. The staff at Orosz Properties have been phenomenal. They have always been so kind and prompt to fix any issues. My neighbors here were awesome, I really felt a part of a community. I have nothing but good things to say! ...

I just toured the embassy this past week and signed the lease the same day. Paige gave me the tour and she was really nice. The apartment was big, clean and had good views of the city. I can see why this place fills up so fast.

Royal Arms is such a beautiful apartment complex. We have found the green space in the middle to be a perfect picnic spot on nice days. Our apartment must have been all redone right before we moved in because everything looks new. The office and maintenance people have all been really nice. We're glad we found this place! ...

Have lived here a while now and love it. The leasing team and maintenance teams are responsive and take care of any items I've contacted them about quickly. They keep the everything clean and working.

My girlfriend and I moved into Bedford Crossing 2 years ago and absolutely LOVE this place. As someone with a cat, I love how cat friendly Orosz is. All the little details of our apartment are AMAZING. We are frequent use the garden patio and have been enjoying using the fire pit with friends. Everyone is super friendly. As for the quality of the actual apartments, they feel like you are living in luxury. I cant say enough good things about it, we love it here!! ...

I’ve recently moved into an apartment managed by Orosz Properties and I love it. Everyone is so nice and helpful and I feel really safe here. Anytime I’ve had an issue in my apartment maintenance fixes it within a few hours. The unit itself is beautiful with new appliances. I really have no complaints. ...

I’ve been here for 4 months now and have 0 complaints. I work at EPIC and needed a place set up before I moved here. I worked with Mellissa for months and the time she put in to make sure I was comfortable and confident in my decision to rent here, was unmatched. Anything that I need fixed or have questions about, the maintenance teams is on it within the same day. The rent is reasonably priced for the area. Plus, I have everything I could possibly need and actually feel safe and taken care of. ...

I have lived here for a few months now and it has been a great experience! Paige and Mitch genuinely care for us including our security and safety. They have been so helpful with the move and periodically check in on us to see if all is going well. The maintenance team has also been very responsive to our needs. All in all, I would give ten stars if I could! ...

Place itself is nice, but the management is really really terrible. So, only decide to come here if you don't care about dealing with management. Any time you have to deal with them, it's very bad. 3 times I had to deal with them over last year and each time it was terrible to say the least. Also, lot of hidden costs in the new lease. They charge $50 per month for heating, regardless of you need it or not, even in summer months. I haven't found a single other place that charges for heating in summer months. They will not allow you to leave early if you need to or want to move out as well. ...

Very bad management staff and owner. Increased rent 40-50% for everyone once they took over. Did not care about existing tenants. No response to maintenance requests. Either you get no communication or rude communication if you try to call. Better pay more somewhere else than get stuck here and deal with them. They are not even letting me leave early and I have to pay rent in two places as a result if I move to a place available now. ...

Making this anonymous so Orosz can't retaliate. Orosz has very poor management, building maintenance, and overpriced property. They seem to care much more about making vain aesthetic improvements so they can upcharge rent while serious maintenance issues go unaddressed. For example, at Royal Arms (which used to be "Karen Arms" before Orosz changed the name to make it sound fancier) several buildings have malfunctioning heat that left units frigid in the winter. Pretty much every building has very old pipes that cause bathtub clogging. Tenant maintenance requests take weeks -- sometimes over a month -- to be completed. Rather than address these serious issues, Orosz focuses on spraypainting hallway floor heaters white (which, by the way, left noxious fumes that wafted into people's units after they shut the doors to prevent proper ventilation) and spending $150,000 on red rocks they put all over the property. Orosz Properties cares more about maximizing their income than they do about providing quality housing. They are a predatory company. Do not rent with them. ...

I have been living here for a long time (combined about 10 years) and basically Orosz taking over the apartment complex solidified my decision to leave. The rents have spiked by 20-40% for all the residents, with no significant improvement in the apartment area. No central AC, no in unit washer/dryer (our laundry fees have also been doubled), many people's thermal controls are still broken, many people's maintenance requests have gone unanswered or marked as complete even if they weren't done. Les Orosz has not shown much interest in working with the tenants to reach a middle ground solution even. For how much they're charging for basically absence of any modern amenities (2 bedroom: 1500-1600, 3bedroom: 1600-1700), there is no reason anyone who has a common sense should stay here. You can find other places that are pretty close to Royal Arms that are either about the same rent or cheaper with more amenities and better management. Don't make the mistake of coming here ...

It was quite nice experience, but their monthly rent is way to expensive. You can hear noise mostly all day, lots of freshmans are living altogether in this apartment. One of party apartment, but much better than Hub or James. They are taking off lots of money from your deposit when you move out, so be prepare before you move out. Maybe taking pictures and so on. ...

the apartment has the worst landlord in the country. Most of the people working in the office are very rude and stupid. They pretended to be very nice and friendly only when yout are signing or renew your contract. After you sign the contract, you are stuck with a bunch of rude idiots in the office and mean landlord. They sometimes come in to the apartment without notifying us 24hr ahead. The worst of all, they will charge you for like carpet cleaning and painting when you move out. They charged us more than $130 for cleaning the carpet, but we ysteam vacuum the place brfore moving out. They will basically take away all your security deposit no matter how hard you try to clean your apartment. So avoid this place if you don't like to deal with a bunch of rude idiots I rented from fall '07 through summer '08. ...
