Nightmare on Abbott

I would never recommend this apartment complex to anyone...We lived there for a year and in that time it seemed like the entire complex went to hell. One of the buildings burnt down! No one ever came to fix things when they broke...and that's if you can get ahold of anyone seeing as how basically every afternoon the staff took a 2 hour lunch break and left early everynight...and pay no attention to that sign that says "Be back at --:-- because it's been set to that time for days! We started repairing things ourselves to same time...like our toilet, the shower, and even the front door! During the winter they decided to change all of the hinges on the front door and while the man they contracted out to change them was installing the new hinges he told me that the door did not fit into the door frame and if someone wanted they could give a good swift kick and be inside! The outside doors are not locked and there are no lights in the parking lot for saftey at night. In the spring our rain gutters clogged and everytime it rained our balcony flooded so bad that there was an 1" on standing water soaking everything out there. The laundry facility in the basement was disgusting and you felt like you were going to be mugged everytime you went down there. People were really gross too...they would leave there garbage out in the hall for a couple of days and the halls were always dirty and smelled bad. The "workout facility" was full of broken equipment that they were always in the process of replacing (I've talked to people that have told me that the equipment has broken for years!) and the pool had to be closed down for chemical reasons! So...if you're not into living in a total dive do NOT live here...the cheap price is tempting I know...but it's so low for reason!
