Overall Review of Upside Doral
common22 reviews mention this
Staff service is a mixed story
Residents describe staff who can be very responsive, but some also report poor follow-through.
A large portion of reviews highlight staff members by name for being helpful, professional, and quick to resolve questions or issues, including during the move-in process and when repairs are requested. Other residents, however, criticize communication after management changes, describing unanswered calls/emails, missed follow-ups, and promises that never happen. Even in the positive reviews, parking and access issues come up, which suggests service quality can depend on the situation and the team handling it.

Maintenance and cleanliness divide residents
Residents report both well-kept common areas and recurring problems with upkeep.
Some residents praise the building for being clean and well maintained, pointing to maintenance staff responsiveness and care that keeps the property in good condition. Other reviews say common areas fall short, with problems like dirty lobbies/hallways, neglected amenities, and lingering cleanliness issues. A few residents also cite specific operational breakdowns (such as elevators and electricity), which strongly reinforces that day-to-day condition can vary by time and situation.

Parking is a recurring inconvenience
Parking creates frequent friction, from access problems to extra costs.
Several reviews complain about parkingâdifficulty using spaces or access controls, and the sense that parking rules and logistics are not user-friendly. Others mention added fees or unexpected charges tied to parking, including residents disputing whether costs were communicated upfront. Even among more positive reviews, parking is singled out as the main drawback, suggesting it stands out against the rest of the experience.
caveat14 reviews mention this
Management communication concerns linger
Communication problems with management show up repeatedly in negative reviews.
Multiple residents describe frustration with how management handles charges, requests, and follow-upsâespecially after a management transitionâsaying they had to chase answers for weeks or longer. In these negative accounts, residents report being promised callbacks that do not arrive, and some describe being told issues would be addressed only if a review was removed. Positive reviews still point to certain staff handling questions well, but the management-communication theme remains a recurring negative thread.
common10 reviews mention this
