BEWARE...DO NOT RENT

Thank god I only lived at VSC for one year or I might have gone crazy. I didn't unpack my apartment for about 3 months because I didnt want to believe that I actually lived in that rat hole. I supposedly rented the biggest one bedroom available, only to find when I moved in that it was about as big as some peoples closet. Upon move in, the bathroom was filthy, the rug (which was supposedly brand new) had rolls and bumps in it all over, and the blinds in the bedroom were broken in two. All of this was noted on the special "move in inspection".

During my stay, my apartment was chosen to be the show apartment (without ever consulting me, compensating me, or thanking me) so it was shown to future renters basically at any time on any day. I won't repeat much of the bad about the appliances, but know that you could find better at Goodwill down the street. The hot water in the apartment is good for the 5 minutes maximum that it lasts. And thats just when the water is actually on. Too many times to count during the year that water was "mysteriously" and suddenly shut off for who knows how long. They closed the pool for almost the entire summer so that sucks for the whole community that used to come and take over the pool every day and night. Parties at the pool in the middle of the nights were fun to hear while trying to sleep. The walls are paper thin. The parking situation is horrible. There was a wasps nest on the stairs directly in front of my door and even after notifying the office, I was stung repeatedly for about a week. I honestly think that there was a family of squirrels that lived in my ceiling because every afternoon I would hear them running around up there. At the beginning of July I notified them that the main light bulb in the living room was burnt out. I moved out August 1st and it still hadn't been replaced.

Finally moving out, I thought I would be free of this awful place. But no, they have decided to charge me not only for the broken blinds in the bedroom, but for chipping the coffee table and scratching the couch, neither of which happened. And for the rent that they get off charging every month for that tiny little place ($795) its completely outrageous.

DO NOT MOVE HERE. STAY AWAY. There are plenty of other nice places in tallahassee. This is not one of them. g-hKOS7s4Nq5n3hEIpHd
