Getting OUT! It's not the place, it's the management.

It's not the place, it's the management. The apartments are nice enough. However, we've lived here too long! This overpriced complex has new, uncaring staff every month. They never act on suggestions or complaints. The place stinks from dog urine and the hall carpeting is filthy. The stairwells are rarely, if ever, cleaned (the same trash has been there for over a month!) and the security lights on the back stairs are faulty. There is obvious NO presence of security - no one walks the property on a regular basis. There are too many problems with the elevators and the electronic doors. The management doesn't care, does NO follow-up and never walks the property to look for problems.

What looked like a nice place a couple of years ago has gone downhill so fast. They keep the hallways at 80 degrees or higher even when it's much cooler outside. There's no ventilation in the halls, so our own air-conditioning has to work even harder. Even the cobblestones surrounding the place are disgusting - never powerwashed. Dogs pee on them and it builds up so it stinks, especially around the entry/exit doors. Complaints resolve nothing. They do nothing. They say they don't know anything about it. They don't offer to come investigate.

We are so disappointed with this place as we had wanted to stay here, but now we need to leave; we're too embarrased to have our family and friends over, much less find it a pleasant place to live. It's going to cost as much as a month's rent to move.
