HORRIBLE AND HAVE MICE!!!

That's right...a brand new apartment with mice!!!! I have an infant and this is very upsetting since I usually leave her on the floor to play. I'm a neat person, my apartment in squeaky clean, yet these disgusting creatures found their to the THIRD floor... so I call management and they say they can only send someone over the next day.

NOISE: yep...from the apartment above me, beside me (and I'm at a corner unit so I only have to share my wall with one other apartment)...all around there's noise; outside with cars playing loud music, drunk/drugged people screaming bloody-murder at 3 a.m., not to mention the construction at Quarrystone. Maintenance is always doing work outside and it can get noisy but at least the place looks nice...also, there are dogs barking constantly and sometimes the owners will leave them unleashed in the hallway which is terrible when you have a child (danger of the dog jumping). I should also mention that the fire alarm goes off all the time.

EXPENSIVE: don't be fooled by the discount rate for the rent. Here you pay electricity, water AND GAS! I was shocked when I got a gas bill because I was told everything was electric, and when I called management they told me that the heating system is BOTH electric and gas. During the winter, the heater will turn on but blow out cold air after a few minutes AND during the summer, the AC will blow out hot air after a few minutes. After complaining, they keep changing the vent filter but the problems persists. They're thieves!

It looks nice but I think it was built in such a rush that the job was poorly done... the walls have uneven paint, there are paint drops all over the carpet and tiles, and the carpet has bumps under it that feel like rocks.

I can't wait to move out of here....I truly hate it here. Don't make the mistake of living here...it's awful!
