Positive Reviews: Many residents praise the amazing staff and apartment complex. Knights Circle is a great property! They have a lot to offer students at UCF from their amenities to the apartments to their location. The staff is even better! They are always making sure the residents are taken care of and have made my living experience simple and easy. One reviewer mentioned living there for two years and loving it. Maintenance came the next day if there was a problem. They felt safe and the shuttle was a great option for me since I didn't have a car. Knight Cir is a great place to live if you are attending University of Central Florida. The place is huge and it comes with many amenities for it's residents. It is right across the street from the university and the people here are great as well.
Negative Reviews: Some reviewers have expressed concerns about pricing policies and customer service. We were in the middle of signing all the paper work (within 2 days of getting the paper work and quote) and they raised the rent on what we already signed by $15 per month. They say they are sorry and ask if they can do anything else for… you. Would be nice if they were like other places that provide quotes that are good for 3 to 5 days while you review the contract and have a day to tour the location. Nice that they are associated with UCF…. no need for any customer service as they have so many people wanting places to live they can do whatever they please and offer no service what so ever - either pay and like what we charge or leave. Another negative is that a small percentage of the complex still has old furniture in use rather than the updated furniture in the display rooms.
Policies
