I agree on the suckiness. In regards to the office staff, when Stephanie was there (up until 2 or 3 months ago), everything ran great. If there was a problem (you were being too loud, for example), she would mention it to you and that would be that, unless it continued. If something needed to be fixed, it got fixed. Now with the new/old manager Autumn (who they had moved temporarily while we did our tenant surveys so that the apt complex wouldn't get a bad review), all you ever get are nasty notices on your door about things you've done, some of which NEVER HAPPENED, or in which they cite things that are incorrect/untrue. I was cited for being loud and partying, when in truth I work until very late into the night and am not home for such shenanigans. Yet I still received a nasty note because someone complained. Also, my dogs bark when I'm not home. I've tried to correct it, honestly. I crate them so they feel a little more secure, I try playing music or the t.v. softly so they don't feel alone, and apparently they're still barking. I'm saving money for 2x bark collars, but in the mean time there isn't a whole lot that I can do, other than try to teach them to quote Shakespeare instead of bark.
In regards to the laundry rooms, they got new machines that work pretty well, except now the price is $1.50 per wash/dry.
As to the fees, they charge you a pet deposit for EACH pet you have, ranging from $300-$500 depending on the size of the animal. This price is supposed to go towards ripping out your carpets, treating pet stains, etc. However, they don't tell you that the pad UNDERNEATH is not covered, and if they have to rip that out due to, oh I don't know your puppy having accidents on the carpet that seep through (it's a liquid, don't know why that would happen >.>), then they charge you to replace it. Also, if they have to replace the carpet, it doesn't matter whether it's for 1 dog or 12, it still has to be removed, so why would I have to hypothetically pay $1000 for my 2 dogs as opposed to someone with a cat at $300' It's just another way for them to screw you.
It's great pricing for college students; let's face it any place is south Florida that has free A/C is a good deal. My average FPL is $40-$50 a month, give or a take a few bucks. And I leave my A/C set at 60 degrees always.

it seems like a lot to have 2 dogs in this apartment and i am sure if the office is contacting you a lot about your dogs barking they are getting a lot of calls. i live next to a person with a dog and it drives me crazy. while they are out all day i get to hear there dog bark all day as i work at night. i dont care that they have a dog but all the people around you dont have to be happy about it if they are going to bark all day. you dont live in a house you shuld take that into consideration. you live in a one bedroom apt what were you thinking?

I have 2 small dogs, so the size of my apt is not really an issue. And it was only one neighbor that was complaining, b/c as soon as she left the complaints stopped. I do try to keep them as quiet as possible, but my point is, they're DOGS, and dogs BARK occasionally. Some people need to get over it. Also, if someone has such a problem with the fact that a tenants dog is going to do what comes naturally to them from time to time, then they need to move into a complex that doesn't allow pets. Simple as that.
