RUN AWAY!! NEVER RENT HERE!!!

Lived here for a year and couldn't wait to get out. I was so excited @ first because me and my son (who was 2 at the time) were getting our apartment and it looked very nice and clean and spacious. What a joke this place is. The office staff was so rude that I literally had to cuss the lady out because after a year I was sooooo tired of their crap.They have security there. For some reason, it's so tiny and gated but they still have security there 24 hours a day, they never made me feel safe at all. They were too busy being in people's business that were doing nothing wrong. You're only allowed 14 overnight stays per YEAR!! Yeah that's right. And anything past I think it was 1am was considered an overnight stay. So even when my sister from Chicago came down and stayed till like 1:30am she might has well have spent the night. Even when my boyfriend dropped medicine off for my son at like 2-3am and he was only in and out maybe 15 minutes they considered that a night. It was very much like a prison. Every guest that came over had to give up their ID that they will get back when they leave. And if you don't have an ID they will not let you in at all. That's very frustrating. I normally don't tell my friends make sure you and everyone bring your id or they won't let you in my apartment like they are coming to visit me in jail. Once my 14 "nights" were up they kept letting my boyfriend spend the night and they never said anything. I really just figured they weren't as strict as they said or I heard. I was wayyy off. One day they actually banned my boyfriend from ever coming to the property again because he had spent over his 14 nights. I was so pissed. I couldn't wait to get out of there. The neighbors below me were such jerks. They would always call security saying we were being loud. They came to my door one night and me and my son were asleep in the bed and they said we were being too loud and they were complaining downstairs''' I was like, do you not see us sleeping'' The security there as well as the office need to go suck a lemon. The people in the office just want you to get kicked out so they can move their family in. The worst place I ever had to live---by far. I never felt like I was at home --- EVER! I hate this place and I hope a tornado comes and sucks it all up, security and office folk as well.
