I LIVED IN THIS COMPLEX 2006 AND 2007. I HAVE LIVED IN OTHER APT'S IN THIS COUNTY WITH LOWER RATINGS THEN SPAN VILL, BUT THIS PLACE IS THE WORST.
1. THE MAINTAINENCE MAN USED THE "N" WORD IN DESCRIBING SOME TENANTS TO ME (3 TIMES)2. WHEN I WAS MOVING HERE IN LATE 2006 THE POOL SHOULD BE OPEN IN SUMMER 2007, MS. CHASE NEVER TOLD ME THE POOL HAD NOT BEEN OPENED SINCE 2001,SO THERE REALLY WAS NO CHANCE THAT THE POOL WOULD OPEN IN 2007.
3. I HAVE A HANDICAP PLACARD, AND I USED IT ONE NIGHT BUT WAS TOLD BY A TENANT THAT I WAS PARKING IN HER SPOT. I COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT SO I ASKED AT THE RENTAL OFFICE AND THEN TOLD ME SOME HANDICAP SPOTS ARE RESERVED FOR CERTAIN HANDICAP CARS. I THEN ASKED IF I COULD HAVE A HANDICAP SPOT ASSIGNED TO ME. MS. CHASE TOLD ME THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH "RESERVED" HANDICAP SPOTS AVAILABLE FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS A HANDCAP CAR.
4. IN APRIL 2007 SPAN VILL STARTED TO REPLACE KITCHEN AND BATHROOM WINDOWS WITH BETTER WINDOWS TO KEEP OUT COLD. GUESS WHAT! IT IS NOW MAY 2008 AND THE ONLY APTS. THAT HAD THE BETTER WINDOWS INSTALLED ARE THE APTS THAT FACE IN (THE PARKING LOT). IF YOUR APT FACES TOWARD THE OUTSIDE (STREET) THE WINDOWS WERE NEVER REPLACED BECAUSE THEY FACE SEMI-SECLUDED AREAS. IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME TAKE A LOT AROUND THE COMPLEX AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE DIFFERENT WINDOWS DEPENDING ON WHERE A TENANT'S APT FACES.
5. PERHAPS THE WORST THING ABOUT SPAN VILL, IF A TENANT HAS A PROBLEM AND CAN'T GET IT RESOLVED WITH RONNIE (MAINT.) OR MS. CHASE, ONE WOULD SEEK A WAY TO CONTACT THE PERSON(S) WHO OWN THIS PLACE. MS CHASE WOULD NOT GIVE ME THE PHONE NUMBER TO GO ABOVE HER HEAD. I EVEN WENT TO HOUSING IN BLADENSBURG AND ALL THEY HAD WAS AN ADDRESS IN VA. AND A PHONE NUMBER THAT WAS HOOKED UP TO A FAX. SO IF YOU LIVE THERE AND HAVE A PROBLEM UNFORTUNATLY YOU WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT. SO I DID THE BEST THING AND I MOVED OUT AFTER ONE YEAR, I WOULD'T RECCOMEND THIS APT. COMPLEX TO MY WORST ENEMY.
