The Bower is the most unprofessional, disgusting place I have ever lived. The only reason they have good reviews is because they give kids free stuff to post a five star reviews and make their staff do it as well.
When we moved in our apartment smelled like it had a dead animal in the air vents which we were told would 'take some time to fix'. Parts of the fridge and stove never worked, walls and floors were nasty and beat up, and nothing was ever fixed when we requested.
Our neighbors had very loud domestic abuse issues causing us to call the cops over and over... and they left piles

I visited my daughter and her 3 roommates this weekend. Despite many calls to the management for maintenance, problems have gone unaddressed. This weekend I was shocked by the roaches that roam the cabinets. I visited the front office and asked that the manager call me. I haven't heard a peep. The rent went up considerably this year...the girls pay almost $2000 for a 3 bedroom and the should not be dealing with the filth. I've contacted the ECU Off Campus Housing department to discuss this bad issue that is apparently rampant there.

Terrible customer service. Within less than 1 day of emailing everyone about repainting the parking lot they towed everyone and had no other way of communicating about towing. Tons of people went to class then came home to not having their car there anymore. In addition they are charging me liable for damages that aren't my fault. Terrible service and should be ashamed. Don't live here.

DO NOT stay here. I've been at the bower for 2 years now and when resigning my lease they told me i'd have to pay $30 more than what I was paying the year before. They gave me no warning about this and illegally raised my rent without notice. This place is also filthy and the maintenance crew doesn't fix anything. This place seems fine from the outside but there are so many issues that don't get addressed which is a huge problem for me. I really regret spending 2 years of my college life here. Management here is disorganized and unreliable. they do everything but help you. My

This place is the absolute worst place you could live. And please ignore all the 5-star reviews. The Bower offers gifts and money if you give them 5 stars. Living here has been one nightmare after another. When I first moved in it was super organized and I was actually excited to live here until I got to my apartment and my key didn't work. It took them over 30 minutes to get a replacement key so I could actually get in. And as soon as I got in it was such a letdown. There were dead bugs EVERYWHERE. Our air conditioner broke and it took them 3 days to come out and even look at it. Another

The rents are cheap and the apartment itself is just okay. The management is very poor. They are not organized and they give you the run around whenever you have an issue.
I would not recommend living here if you can afford something else. The location is convenient and there is a bus nearby that goes to ECU. The appliances need updating and the carpets looked like they needed replacing when I moved in.
I have had other people who have lived there talk about how poor the management is also. There are often loud parties outside and sometimes the cops show up. There were also shootings and robberies
