I think it is my duty to inform any future tenants about this hellhole we had to reside in for HALF the lease. The first week we lived there, the apartment wasn't what we really wanted, but it was great for the money. ***I'm OCD VERY bad with cleaning*** That 1st Friday we got a wift of the ACTUAL garbage we had gotten ourselves into. My boyfriend left an empty can of soda in the microscopic area they call a kitchen. When we came back home, I went into the kitchen to put our food away and there were all of our roommates we didn't know we had. Grandma, Grandpa, Mama, Daddy, and all the babies.

Secondly, the incompetent, tasteless, self absorbed, power abusive security guard TRACY. He is an a**hole; point blank. This guy will see and speak to you as you walk out of the door. If you just go to your car to get something you left, lets say it takes you 3 minutes to walk to and from your car, when you come back into the lobby without the access card, he will not let you go back upstairs. This guy also thinks he can tell you who you can and can't have come to visit you. If he personally doesn't like you, he'll try to have you arrested for "criminal trespassing". The other security guards are pretty cool though.

Third, they will tell you that they are "trying to uphold an image" so they don't want you to smoke in the front if you're waiting on someone. But how can this be when you have a lady in BROAD DAY LIGHT eating out of the trash' When you have a group of 5 rough looking guys just standing outside trying to get every female's number who graces the doorway' The lights don't work on the main sign. Also, you'll see roaches on the elevator doors, on the walls, and the ceilings. This sounds like a BEAUTIFUL image to me.

Fourth, if you have a four-leg child, other than a cat, don't look to the Darlington to care. So all of you K-9 lovers, keep looking.

Fifth, PARKING!!! I HATE parking here! It looks great at first because you think the front is available, oh NO! That's for the medical office next door that has a huge parking garage. Then the back looks great until you find a space you couldn't fit a bike into because of the genius' on both sides taking up both of the already short, narrow spaces. If you have a long vehicle, parking is hell. And lets not forget if you park in the front just to run in to get something you forgot, you get a boot placed on your car.

The Darlington on received 1 star from me because I couldn't remove that 1 star. Overall, these apartments, management, and security SUCK!
