I recently looked at a few apartment complexes in SA and all looked nice. Having a tough time deciding which to go with. Anyone live at or know anything about these places? Any and all advice appreciated. Thanks!

Hacienda Del Sol

I lived at the San Miguel for a couple of years when it first opened (2005?). I thought it was a great place to live with an excellent, well-kept pool. Despite being fairly close to UTSA, it wasn't completely overrun with students. Still, it seems most residents were in their twenties and well-behaved. It was also a little pricier than others in the area, but worth it in my opinion.

I had a friend who lived in Signature Ridge and I always found it to be a little shady/questionable. It wasn't very quiet at night and the apartments weren't anything special.

I walked through Broadstone at the Colonnade when I was shopping around and didn't care for it. Your experience might be different.

I don't have experience with any of the others on your list - sorry!

Don't believe that 100%.
Before moving to San Antonio I used that and picked the 5 apartaments with the best ratings in the area that I wanted, all of them 50% rating or higher.
They all sucked.

My wife convinced me to drive around and we found an apartment much nicer in the same area.
I checked the rating on that apartment and it was 18%.

Have lived there for 3 months and I'm very happy with our choice.

Medical center, basically. The Colonnade ones are further out - they're at I10 and Wurzbach. The Vantage is at Prue and Babcock, I think. But basically the med center area.
