Resident 2005 - 2015

5/30/2015

THE BAD: -If you have any packages coming in they leave all packages by the mailbox. There are cameras so if someone steals your packages or laundry clothes (it has happened on multiple occasions) you can go to management to review the tapes. -The pool is not included with rent and if you have additional guests they pay about $5 per guest per day. If you lose your pool pass you'll have to pay $10.00 for a new one. 6 foot pool -There is security alliance for the entire Admiral's Hills Community. Unfortunately someone was killed on the Ground Floor near the Laundry room also near Management Office (it was closed as it was in the early AM). Someone's motorcycle was lit purposely, tires were slash but this was all in mid 2000s. Currently there have been no incidents as of 2015. -Maintenance is quite poor. There are lists of things that need to be replaced in my apartment that have yet to been replaced as of years of requesting. -The laundry mat is always busy so try and do laundry during the late hours. Also expect to pay $2.75 to wash and $2.75 to dry for ONE load. They still have broken laundry machines that need to be replaced. -Cleanliness is quite decent. They do a good job making sure the grounds is clean but residents don't do a very good job of picking up after their pets. -BEWARE OF TICKS; The entire hill that is shaping up to be a forest it used to be mowed all the time until City Hall complained and now they don't mow it. But because of this factor there is grossly amount of ticks (be careful with your pets and always check them before returning to your apartment) snakes, and then awesome bunnies. -Otherwise the apartment is simply decent not modern like you would find for newly build condos/apartments. Keep in mind this was built 25 years ago. -Appliances aren't replaced often -Right now there is a lot of unreliable hours at the office as they try and find a replacement for an assistant property management. -There is no area within on-site, the community and the city of Chelsea for dogs to roam off leash. -They also do not provide a pet waste disposal or pet waste bags but you can go across the street at AXIS to utilize theirs. Snow time: The snowplows DO come just not as often as they should. If you shovel out your own spot in the both two HUGE parking lots (one in the front and the other in the back with TWO levels) expect some lazy people to take your spot and have fun plowing more! :) IMPORTANT: A/C AND HEATING - we are ending May and the A/C has yet to be turned on. With weather at 85 degrees plus you can't be comfortable in your own home. Same goes to when it begins to get colder out. THE GOOD: Nearby: Chelsea High School, Marketbasket Grocery Store, Starbucks, Five Guys, TJ MAXX, Home Goods, TMobile, Nail Salon, BK, etc. All this is walkable about 5 minute walk to the plaza. You can catch the 112 as there is a bus stop right on site but know this bus comes every 45 minutes or more and during the snow GOODLUCK. -You can catch a decent view of the fireworks on July 4th at the Mary O'Malley Park. Huge park that includes a playground for kids, tennis court, and huge fields. Sometimes they have plays near the bathroom stalls. The bathroom stalls are opened only on certain times by the city. -Quiet community -The Tobin is less than a 3 minute drive down the street. -If you have a boat - HEY there is a Marina across the street -The building does a BBQ in the summer and holiday feasts. They also have award winning contests. (I.E Drawing Contest) -Vending drink and snack machines can be found in the laundry room (most of the time the drink machine is never filled) -There is a decent gym for residents only (sorry to your friends).
