This place is a joke!

My drama is not with maintanence, nor is it with my neighbors, my problems are with management of this complex and it is really too much to write about but i will try. Originally i applied for a 3bdrm w/den about a month prior to move in. Management never allowed me to view the apartment until 5pm on the day before i was to move in. They kept saying the apartment was not ready to view. When i finally saw the apartment it was only a 3 bdrm. At this point i felt stuck - i had movers scheduled to come at 8am, i had new furniture to be delivered at 8am etc. So therefore, i had to continue on with the move the next morning - or have a lot of money lost with all the delivery charges. Not only was the apartment not cleaned, the fixtures were not on the light switches, the bathrooms still had nails and bolts on the floors and counters, in other words the apartment was still not ready for move in - but i had to get in there with my screw driver and piece it together my self. As far as the apartment, it sucked and still do. The knobs on the washer and dryer were both striped - they eventually had to replace the washer and dryer. The roaches had taken over. They were everywhere in the apartment (bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, closets, etc) I was ready to leave my own apartment and let them have it. I was there only two weeks when i had a flood through my 2nd bdrm a/c vent. Management told me to just file a claim with my renters insurance agent (after two weeks, that´s funny). Parking sucks. They have tow trucks ANY TIME OF THE DAY. Not after a certain time, but all day long. We have to purchase extra day passes for guests - which is no problem but management run out of them. Yes, they have the nerve to run out of parking pass. How in the world can they ever run out of parking passes especially on the weekend. Funny right?!!?!?? When the apartment building glass door broke it took them about 3 weeks to get it fixed. Then the day before Thanksgiving - thru that weekend, management decided to tear down the front porch steps - imagine that, carrying all your Thanksgiving groceries, or transporting all your cooked food and/or all of your guest walking up a thin ramp. The ramp was so thin i had to take off my big coat to walk up it. Any way- i guess you see my point. In a nut shell my tenure here has been horrible. I very rarely have company because of the embarrasement of roaches, cant get extra parking passes, or just not know WHAT might happen on the property that day. My building sits right off suitland parkway and it´s very dark on the side of my building, there is no light out there so i feel very scared leaving out early in the mornings. I began looking for new apartments a month after i moved into this apartment. It´s really sad when your not comfortable where you lay your head.
