I moved into COLONY WOODS with the original managment in Aug '06.

From minute ONE there were problems. The apt they were going to move us into already was occupied! The management let us in to an apt FILLED with things. I was actually scared that they might do that to me sometime.

They NEVER give adequate notice for important things (perfect example: they put a note on my door the night BEFORE they started to re-tar the parking lot, I didn't get the note, and was TOWED AT MY EXPENSE.)
They will have people come in to spray for bugs (which doesnt help, btw) THAT day, when you have no idea. I have been sleeping or with someone, and all of a sudden someone is just heading in the door.

The management is by far the worst to deal with though. There is one MAIN woman, and she could not be more rude for NO reason. They now offer a free tanning bed to tenants in the clubhouse, but you have to ask staff to turn it on for you. I asked her nicely...she rolled her eyes and sighed at a simple request. Imagine fighting about rent or other issues....this woman is a MENACE and the MAIN manager. The rest of the staff appear to be teenager friends of her teen daughter that works there with a similar attitude.

The landscaping is ugly. Nothing looks clean.

NEVER EVER MOVE HERE. IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY AND YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!!!
