Who This Residence Suits
The Arlie in Arlington, Texas, is a furnished student apartment community that works best for those who prioritize a low starting rent and a convenient all-in-one bundle. With a minimum monthly price of $464 (indicative — confirm with the operator), it matches the city’s from-price for student housing, making it one of the more accessible options in Arlington. The property includes WiFi and parking in the rent, which removes two common monthly expenses that tenants in other buildings often pay separately. If you are looking for a simple, move-in-ready unit without having to shop for internet or a parking pass, The Arlie’s inclusive model can simplify your budget.
The residence offers a range of unit types — one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom, and four-bedroom floor plans — so it can accommodate both solo renters and groups who want to share. The availability date is mid-August 2026, which aligns with the typical U.S. academic calendar. Students arriving for the fall semester will find the move-in window convenient.
The on-site maintenance team receives consistent praise from residents. One review by Ivan Lozano, who lived there, states: “The only reason for the 2 star is because the maintenace team is amazing, thats all i can say.” If you value responsive repair staff above all else, The Arlie’s maintenance crew appears to be a bright spot.
Who This Residence Does Not Suit
The Arlie is not well-suited for tenants who expect attentive management or fast resolution of chronic issues. Multiple resident reviews describe serious problems with the leasing office. Nakia Nicole warned: “So I just want to start by saying if you are a UTA student and looking for housing DO NOT STAY HERE !!! management- is terrible it sucks they don’t care about nothing you have to say ..they’re not professional and they won’t come out & speak to the residents if they have concerns.” This review, though emphatic, reflects a pattern of dissatisfaction with how the office handles complaints.
Another long-term resident, Mimi, reported an unresolved pest problem: “I reported an ongoing roach issue multiple times that was not resolved in a timely or effective manner.” For anyone who requires a pest-free living environment from day one, this is a significant risk. Additionally, Ivan Lozano mentioned being charged for things “out of my control” after moving out. These accounts suggest that move-out billing can become contentious.
If peace of mind regarding management and cleanliness is your top priority, you may want to look at other properties in Arlington that have a stronger track record on those fronts. The Arlie’s overall Google rating of 3.9 out of 5 from 387 reviews is moderate, but the written feedback skews negative, especially concerning office staff and recurring maintenance issues that go unaddressed.
What Residents Actually Say
The three Google reviews provided give a clear window into the resident experience. Here is a summary of what people highlight:
- Nakia Nicole (1 star): “management- is terrible it sucks they don’t care about nothing you have to say … they’re not professional and they won’t come out & speak to the residents if they have concerns.” This review points to a fundamental lack of communication and respect from the management team.
- Mimi (3 star): “During my first two years in a one-bedroom unit, my experience was manageable; however, I reported an ongoing roach issue multiple times that was not resolved in a timely or effective manner. Due to increasing rent, I moved into a shared unit during my thir…” The reviewer rated the experience three out of five, balancing a tolerable first two years with a persistent pest problem and rent increases that forced a unit change.
- Ivan Lozano (2 star): “The only reason for the 2 star is because the maintenace team is amazing, thats all i can say. They charged me for things out of my control after m…” The praise for maintenance workers is genuine, but the move-out charges left a bad taste, leading to a low overall score.
The common threads: maintenance staff are competent and helpful, but the management office is perceived as uncaring and difficult to deal with. Pests (specifically roaches) were reported but not resolved to the resident’s satisfaction. Rent increased over time, and move-out fees were disputed.
Price Positioning & Room-Type Guidance
The Arlie’s starting monthly price is $464 (indicative — confirm with the operator). That figure matches the city’s lowest from-price of $464, meaning it is among the most affordable options in Arlington’s student housing market. The maximum price is $1,829, which likely corresponds to larger private units or premium floor plans.
Given the unit types available:
- 1-bedroom (1b): Best for a single resident who wants full privacy. The starting rent is likely at the lower end of the range, but confirm with the operator.
- 2-bedroom (2b): Ideal for two roommates who want separate bedrooms and shared common space. The per-person cost can be especially low if you split the rent.
- 3-bedroom (3b) and 4-bedroom (4b): Suited for groups of three or four students. These can drive the per-person rent even lower, potentially close to the $464 floor. However, be prepared for the management challenges described by residents.
- Shared units: Mimi’s review mentions moving into a shared unit during her third year. Shared arrangements may offer lower individual rent but involve more people and potential noise or cleanliness differences.
Because the cheapest units may be snapped up quickly, you should confirm availability early. The property was listed with inventory as of mid-2026, so for a 2026 move-in, the available-from date is 15 August 2026.
Booking Timing
The Arlie opens for occupancy on 15 August 2026. In the Arlington student housing market, where only eight properties were recorded in the dataset, competition for the lowest-priced units can be high. A reasonable strategy is to begin your search in early 2026 (around January to March) to secure a spot, especially if you want a one-bedroom or a specific floor plan. Waiting until the summer may limit your choices to higher-priced or less desirable units.
Be aware that rent may increase between the time you first inquire and your lease start. The reviews indicate that rent increases occurred during tenancy, so locking in a rate as early as the operator allows is wise. The lease length (min_lease is null in the data) likely defaults to a 12-month term, standard for student housing. Confirm the exact term and any early-termination fees with the operator.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is The Arlie close to campus?
The property is located at Arlington, TX 76013, which is within the Arlington area. The dataset does not list specific universities, so distance to any particular campus should be verified on a map. General transport options include driving, biking, or using the local bus service. Because the address is in a residential part of Arlington, walking distance to grocery stores and restaurants may vary.
What is included in the rent?
Rent covers a furnished unit, WiFi internet, and a parking spot. Utilities beyond those (electricity, water, gas) are not explicitly listed as included, so you should ask the operator whether they are part of the rent or billed separately. The furnished aspect means you do not need to bring a bed, desk, or other basic furniture.
Are there any hidden fees I should watch for?
Residents have reported unexpected charges after moving out. Ivan Lozano mentions being charged for things “out of my control.” It is prudent to ask the management for a clear list of potential move-out fees, cleaning charges, and repair deductions before signing the lease. Take photos of the unit’s condition upon move-in and keep all correspondence.
