Wasn't terrible, but glad I moved.

We lived in Foxglen II for a few years when we first moved to MD.

When we moved in, we were told that the kitchen and bathroom linoleum would be replaced (it was pretty gross) and it never was.

They recently took all the astroturf off the balconies though, and didn't seem to have any plans about recovering them as of when we left in March.

It was a bad decision because there is a DEFINITE noise problem there and now it just helps everything echo.

You can hear your neighbors doing everything, anywhere in the apartment.

Including passing gas.

I wish I was kidding.

I never saw any kids in the front office unless they came in with a parent; the front office is a bit unorganized but I never had any serious problems with them (although they must have lived in Fox Glen I 'cause I never saw them outside of the office).

Our leasing agent, who no longer works there, gave us the wrong type of apartment so we couldn't get a pet, even though we specifically picked the place because they claim to be pet friendly.

You're supposed to live in a ground floor apartment to have any type of animal, but there was a family with a pretty huge dog that lived on the second floor of one of the apartments and let it out on the balcony to bark at all hours.

Don't know if they've changed their minds or if those people just didn't care.

We had a few problems with things like leaks and they were fixed pretty much on time and properly.

The appliances are on the older side and the gas stove has no emergency gas shut off--our pilot light would go out a lot and the apartment would STINK.

There was a huge biting ant problem where we lived.

The windows aren't very well insulated and in the winter you freeze.

You can also hear everything in the parking lot clearly even with the windows closed.

Smells pass through the air conditioning vent, so you can practically taste other tenants' dinner.

The parking spaces are very small so if you like opening your car door the whole way, you're going to have problems.

We also had some loud and scary neighbors.

I had to call the cops more than once because of security issues with various guests of tenants but nothing was ever vandalized or stolen.

The living room was huge, the kitchen is pretty tiny and the cabinets/counterspace is lacking, but the bathrooms are a good size, there are lots of closets, and it still isn't bad for the price.

I know the place we live now is less noisy but I definitely miss that huge living room.
