Yo!
 

YOU WILL HATE IT...TRUST ME

Well this is the first apartment place I've had...and I really expected more.

First of all...unless you have an ABNORMAL tolerance for noise, you shouldn't live anywhere but the third floor. I don't know if the guys living above me are TRYING to be loud or it's just poor construction. But they stomp around like elephants...and they wake up a couple hours before I have to and it sounds like they're jumping from the top bunk of bunk beds.

Secondly...the appliances are old. I mean really old. My refrigerator shakes and rattles every time it shuts off like someone is trapped inside trying to get out.

Thirdly...the drains have never worked right. I hate to make Dran-o a regular part of my apartment expense. I would clean out the drains regularly to try to make a difference, and when I take a shower the tub STILL fills up faster than it drains.

Fourth - When I moved in...the place was a mess! There was a broken, un-replaced light bulb in the bathroom...hadn't been vaccummed....paint job was shoddy and quickly done to get it over with.

Fifth- The window rattles even when shut...and it's SOOOOOO windy up here that it keeps me awake nights.

Sixth - The parking by my building SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to arrive about an hour and a half earlier than I do back from work to park within what seems like a half a mile of my building. And let me tell ya, that's a LOT of fun in 30 mph winds trying to lug in groceries.

So that's my story. I don't really like bad-mouthing places so maybe it was just my instance. But somehow I don't think so.
