Overall Review of The Commons At Princess Anne

caveat 11 reviews mention this

Maintenance response is a mixed bag

Repairs and follow-through come up as major concerns in multiple reviews.

Several residents describe long waits for repairs, including situations where issues like air conditioning, appliances, plumbing, or general maintenance were not fixed for extended periods. Other reviews say maintenance is responsive and that work gets handled, which suggests the experience may vary by request or over time. There are also mentions that the office may not oversee the maintenance team consistently, and that getting ahold of staff can take time.

common 20 reviews mention this

Staff friendliness is often praised

Many reviewers describe the office and management as professional and helpful.

A large share of reviews highlight professional, courteous, friendly, or kind staff, with some residents specifically saying management and maintenance are easy to work with. A smaller group of reviews take the opposite view, describing rude or unfriendly office interactions, difficulty reaching the office, and promises that are not met. One review also says the office can be overworked or understaffed, which helps explain why responses may feel inconsistent.

common 9 reviews mention this

Grounds upkeep draws both praise and complaints

Reviews frequently mention cleanliness and property upkeep, for better or worse.

Some residents say the property looks clean and well kept, noting trash-free grounds and well-maintained common areas and courtyard space. Others describe conditions they consider unacceptable, including mold, roaches, dirty walls, trash, and signs of deterioration such as rust and water issues. Taken together, reviewers paint a picture where upkeep can look strong in some areas while larger maintenance or sanitation problems also appear in others.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Elevators affect day-to-day access

Elevator reliability is raised as a problem in multiple reviews.

Some reviews report elevator outages or elevators not working for seniors, and one comment describes elevators being out frequently in a building with multiple floors. Other residents counter that elevators are available to reach upper floors, which suggests the issue may be intermittent or dependent on maintenance follow-through. Either way, elevator access is clearly part of what reviewers pay attention to.

caveat 5 reviews mention this

Rent concerns and what’s included

Rent increases and value-for-money concerns show up alongside complaints about condition.

A handful of reviews mention rent increases and argue that pricing does not match what is offered or the way the community looks. One review also criticizes specific in-unit features, saying bathrooms aren’t designed for seniors and describing safety concerns. At the same time, the listing pricing provided for 2-bedroom units is shown as substantially below county and state comparisons, so residents’ cost perceptions may not align with that benchmark.

common 7 reviews mention this

Quiet setting is a common theme

Multiple reviews describe the community as quiet and comfortable to live in.

Several residents say they enjoy a quiet environment, and a few mention serene grounds, a lovely courtyard, or a comfortable day-to-day feel. A different review notes walls are thin and that noise from neighbors can be audible, which is a counterpoint to the quiet theme. Overall, the reviews suggest many people experience the space as calm, but some notice layout or soundproofing limitations.
