This place is horrible
Submitted: March 26, 2013
Stayed: January 2013
I was supposed to stay here for 3 weeks and my hellish stay lasted one week. It started the minute I walked through the door. The place was filthy, stained carpet, dead bugs in the lower cabinets, 1 gross old towel and 1 wash cloth and a hard dirty stain mattress to boot. I actually went to TJ Maxx to purchase my own towels, wash cloths and sheets. The pictures are very misleading. There is no grass, dogs roam free and yes, the owners do not clean up their pet mess. I thought I could tough it out, then the nightmare really began. NO INTERNET! This was critical for me because I was in online classes. The management made several promises, however, I ended up spending over 12 hours of my own time waiting for Time Warner several days, no show. Then came the day I decided to leave this place, I couldn't take the bugs (roaches), dirt and no internet anymore. I was asked to spend a Saturday waiting for the internet company. The manager Jo asked me Thursday to wait. I said no...I would not wait any more so she said she would make sure to have someone there. Saturday came and went. I called Time Warner and they said she cancelled the appointment Friday morning. I found out she went on vacation. However, never calling me to tell me the company was not coming. All I have to say is I have never experienced such a horrible place. Management did not care I was visiting. I had to buy my own towels, sheets and oh...there were no pots and pans until I complained...then 3 showed up. This is not a vacation rental. The couch is torn, worn and I will post pictures on trip advisor so you can really see what you are getting. I have never written a bad review on VRBO. I guess there is a first for everything. If you don't believe me...google the apartment reviews. It is all true about Arlington Oaks Apartments. One last thing...I wrote the parent company and they did refund my complete stay because they could not even get answers from management.

My kids and I spent the weekend in Dallas and stayed at this rental. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. The linens were clean and fresh. The kitchen had all the items needed to cook meals during our stay. It was the perfect place to go after a long day at Six Flags, the Cowboys Stadium, and Discovery Legoland. There are plenty of restaurants all within 5 minutes and you are also very close the highway. We were never more than 15 minutes away from our longest point of destination. I will definitely book our stay here again the next time we are in town. A nice touch from this rental was the staff- they were all attentive and made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible.

Our family was in Dallas for a soccer game at cowboys stadium. My wife, four kids and I walked to the stadium from apartments. Plenty of restaurants nearby. Only thing is the mattresses were a litlle uncomfortable but no big deal.

We enjoyed our stay at Arlington Oaks. The only thing I did not like was that there was nothing on the bed between the sheet and the mattress... The apartment was quiet and enjoyable - prime location as well. Will definitely stay again
