Cloverleaf Apartments

The property and apartment were ok and I had very noisy upstairs neighbors. But, I had to unexpectedly move out for a job and gave notice as required, but they wouldn't allow me to pay a fee and break the lease. They required me to continue paying the rent and pay the utilities. To top it off they decided to heat an empty apartment so my bill was higher; I turned off the heater when I moved out. As NM law states, the landlord has a duty to try to fill you as a tenant within reason. Most judges would say after 60 days that the tenant has fulfilled their duty. They never rented my apartment, never provided me with a list of how they would apply my deposit (required by law) within 60 days of move out and they never returned my deposit despite leaving the apartment clean and ready to move in. I would NOT recommend moving in here since they just seemed concerned with taking advantages of their tenants when the opportunity arises.

I have lived in many apartments though out Albuquerque, NYC and Portland and this is the only one that felt like a true home. It is the only one I lived the longest in. I lived there for 5 years and the only reason I left is I had to take care of a sick parent.The grounds are beautiful with so many trees, green grass and beautiful flowers! Don't forget the amazing pool! Several apartments even have their own backyard. No apartment is alike and I had one of the largest apartments! They all have their own unique attributes which make you feel like you live in a house vs an apartment. I had huge walk in closets, fire place, jet tub as well as my own washer/dryer laundry room. The size of the apartment was larger than my first house I bought! The staff was always helpful and available when needed no matter the day or time, including holidays. So when something broke and as you know things never like to break when it was convenient the owners were there to address and fix it immediately! I have owned several homes and I still miss this apartment and all it has to offer!!!

Where do I begin...If you want a honest review then it won't get more honest than this. I have been waiting to post this review since the time I moved in and out of my apartment and I have officially moved out so it's not a paid post or for any type of "reward" that some apt complexes give to write a review. It's just a honest review from a young, first apartment, grad student that just needed to tell you folks the real deal about this place. When I first was looking for my new home to live in for the next four years I literally stumbled upon this place around midnight one night and on an outrageous page number on apartments.com because I couldn't find the right apartment after searching for months. But when I say I thank God everyday that I found this place I MEAN IT. This was my very FIRST apartment and I stayed in it for FOUR YEARS!!! It's not everyday that you fall in love with an apartment and don't move out every year! This is the best apartment complex in Albuquerque. Granted it's not the newest, or most luxurious, but it's homey and for a 21 year old to move out for the first time, in a new city with no family, and live here ALONE without a roommate for 4 years?? I think that tells you SOMETHING. These apartments are spacious, they have lots of storage, mine had a washer and dryer in unit, they're super clean, and unlike other complexes there's no rodent or roach problem! Each apartment also comes with its own water heater so your showers are always as hot as you need even in the winter! In terms of security, no it's not gated. But in the four years I lived here only ONE car was broken into and stolen but it was eventually found and returned to the owner. That's because even though it's open, the apartment complex is in a very secluded area to where it's not in the eye for robberies or criminal-like problems. Occasionally there's homeless people ( just like all of Albuquerque) but the staff is always on their A-game and keeps them off the property and keeps the place safe. There is cameras around the property and all the properties on the ground level have fencing or gates around them, the only part that's open is parking. My first year living alone was very scary but the staff always took care of me and looked out for me. As a young female that meant so much and I always felt protected. Let's talk about the staff some more. The apartment manager Veronica is on top of her game, is one of the sweetest women on this planet, and actually gives a damn about her job! And the owner Tanya? GOD BLESS THAT WOMAN! She's always smiling, picks up the phone at anytime when you call her, and there's nothing she can't do or won't do for her tenants. I'm not kidding, do you know how hard it is to find management and staff at a apartment complex that (forgive my language) gives two shits about who you are, let alone you actually even SEE THEM?! Half the comments on other apartment complexes you read all complain about management! This isn't a chain apartment complex that just cares about money! The staff at cloverleaf actually CARES about you and they build connections, friendships and a strong sense of familiarity with all the tenants. There has been times where I've sat in Veronica's office for hours talking or been on the phone with Tanya just catching up on life. They even bought me balloons, decorated my door and gave me a congratulatory card for my graduation because they saw my journey the last four years I lived here for school! They supported me just like my own family has every step of the way. I know reading this you might think I'm literally bullshitting you. And that's fine!! All I'm saying is if you're looking for a place to stay, JUST GIVE THEM A CHANCE! Call them for a tour or stop by and see for yourself! You might hate it and that's fine, or you might fall in love with it so much that unlike other people who switch apartments every year, instead of having a headache packing up another UHAUL, you'll think, "good thing I listened to that girl and chose cloverleaf apartments" becuase all you'll be doing at the end of your lease... is begging to resign it!To the staff, thank you for everything. My family and I are so grateful and I will always cherish my first apartment. XXX

I stayed here summer of 2015 while getting training in Albuquerque. I presigned a 10 week lease before even seeing the place because I was coming from out of state. I picked the place because it's on the bike path and directly deposited to the training sight so it's convenient. But don't be fooled. This place was a mess. My night there was straight out of hell. I couldn't sleep in the bed, I literally felt like I was being eaten alive. I had bite marks all over me. I had to sleep most of the night in the bath tub. When I complained to management they denied they had bed bugs. But when they inspected the bare mattress they found a large brown stain the size of a large human on the bed. Gross. They told me they couldn't change the mattress until two days later so they housed me in another apartment which didn't have a mattress. They gave me a blow up mattress which didn't hold the air so I was sleeping on plan by the middle do the day. The air conditioning is old and musty and there is no air circulation. I couldn't open the window because I am female and alone and my apartment was the first floor, this apartment is next to the gas station. There was 3 days I had no air conditioning at all in 110 degree weather so you can imagine how hot it got in the apartment. When I complained to management they said they couldn't fix it until the following week because when it broke was Friday. If I had health issue I could have died in that heat. What's wrong with these people. If it wasn't for the stupid lease I would have packed and ran. I learned an important lesson, never presign a lease for a place you never saw.
