Ive lived at Place 72 for a very short time but I am truly so happy with it. First: Management is GREAT. Everyone is very kind and helpful. They are on top of the snow removal and send email updates to keep you informed. I submitted an online maintenance request (no emergency) and got a response within an hour. Moving from an apartment with awful unresponsive management they really are a breath of fresh air. The apartments are older and the ones that havent been remodeled are pretty outdated but you know what youre getting into before you move in. If youre looking for something fancy, you can pay an extra $400 a month for that ;) As far as the walls being thin I only ever hear my neighbors in the walking commons area, Ive never heard them from inside of my apartment. The location is PERFECT. It seems like you can get to anywhere in Omaha within 10 minutes. Its close to the Aksarben shopping area with a lot of good stores and restaurants. For a single person, these apartments are great. The apartments are spacious and clean (and thats saying a lot because I am a little crazy about cleanliness). Dont get turned off by the negative reviews. People always like to point out the negative and are less likely to get online and post if they have a positive experience. :)

I wish I could give them 0 stars. In late 2013, my husband and I, two poor grad students, rented an apartment here. By the end of our 2nd year, we were counting down to the day we could finally move out of it. The straw that broke the camel's back was water leaking (or more accurately, falling down like rain) from the ceiling and flooded our walk-in closet and bathroom. The apartment opposite from us was completely flooded. When we contacted CIP management to report our damages, they told us to contact our insurance company because they held no responsibility in these situations. We then asked if we could move out early because we couldn't stand the loud industrial fan they brought in to dry the carpet (it blew day and night for a week), they said we would lose our deposit and the remaining rent of the month (thank god, we already switched to month-to-month rent). We had to stay in that unsafe environment until the end of that month. When we moved out, they refunded us about 30% of the deposit, stating we didn't clean the apartment well enough (mind you, we did). A month later, a collection company contacted us on CIP's behalf to collect an amount equal to the partial deposit refund we got from CIP, saying it was an OPPD (electric company) fine. I contacted OPPD and there was no such fine. A friend of mine who stayed in a CIP's building in Lincoln told me they also did this to him. I paid them anyway because I didn't want to deal with disputing a collection item in our credit report. After moving out of Place 72, we paid only $400 more for a new 2 bed 2 bath unit (with our own washer and dryer) in a Broadmoor apartment community. The new apartment was 50% larger, and had plenty of natural light which improved my mood and health a lot. Our new community had 2 huge CLEAN swimming pools and excellent maintenance service. When we moved out, they refunded our entire deposit within a week. We no longer stay at any Broadmoor properties due to new work locations, yet we have only good things to say about Broadmoor. The same thing doesn't apply to CIP. Good bye dirty swimming pool, broken (shared) washers and dryers, paper-thin walls, loud neighbors, rude smokers and dark and outdated apartments. Please steer clear of this apartment complex!

First of all I would HIGHLY recommend looking at the reviews before even considering this place. I was in a tight pinch and decided to give the place the benefit of a doubt, so I called and made an appointment to view. I showed up 5 min before the tour (10:55) and waited 25 min for Brittany the realtor to show up. There was no phone call saying she would be late or anything. It was a no show. So I'm taking my business else where.

Good location. Very quiet and every room is a single bedroom, so there are virtually no kids running around. Generally good people living there....

Good location. Very quiet and every room is a single bedroom, so there are virtually no kids running around. Generally good people living there. The local management has really gone down hill. When I moved in back in 2014, they were great. When I left in 2016, they consistently failed to address maintenance issues and did a lot of really shady things when I moved out. I had to get in touch with the regional management to get my deposit back. Be wary and take a lot of pictures when you move in.
