Resident Testimonials

"I’ve been living here a year and have nothing but good things to say about South Duff. The apartments are great and really cost effective for the price, they are very pet friendly and are located just opposite to the dog park, and the office staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Maintenance is extremely prompt and the premises is clean and safe. I highly recommend living here!"
- Irvin P.
"South Duff is an AMAZING place to live! All the workers are so kind and go above and beyond with everything. They put so much effort into events that I’ve never seen any other apartments do. Today we had a farmers market with products from local businesses! Each event is so fun and has so much effort put into it. Every time you walk into the office everyone has a smile on their face. In this day and age you don’t see that as much. It’s so important that you can trust and enjoy being around the people who run your apartment. I never feel embarrassed or scared to speak with them. They are amazing at listening to what you say and taking action immediately. If you need a place to live in Ames, the first place you should apply to is South Duff. I guarantee you won’t regret it!"
