Toilet Water from our Upstairs Neighbor was leaking in my Roommate's Bedroom and More!!!!!

We had so many issues while living in this apartment. First, our upstairs neighbor's toilet flooded over and the toilet water began to leak through my roommate's ceiling and got all over her clothes in her closet and carpet. However, the manitence did come by quickly and he did inform us that it was toilet water and he sprayed cleaning solution on the carpet and dried it with that famous big blue fan.
2nd, sometimes I had to turn on the water in the bathroom sink in order to get hot water for the shower. Also, there was no fan in the bathroom but a window up above the tub. Since, we didn't have a fan, we will open the window after a shower to avoid mold accept for the winter because the window was frozen. However, opening up the window didn't even help because the mold started to accumulate. And when the summer came, there was an ant farm in our tub but I was able to prevent more from coming by spraying lysol around the window edges twice a day.
3rd, We lived on the ground level, so when it rained, water from the outside was leaking or should I say draining into our kitchen. The carpet was soaked in our kitchen and it happened everytime it rained until the gutters were fixed. However, the maintence man did come everytime and sprayed his cleaning solution and dried it with the big blue fan but then the apartment will start to smell like pee and mildew since they probably never thoroughly cleaned the carpet.
4th, our floor level was not even leveled correctly, it was lopsided, so I couldn't even put a DVD tower stand up without it falling down.
5th, my roommate's car got broken into and her car stereo was stolen.

However, I thought the staff was nice, maintence did come quick depending on the issue if not, then I will complained twice about it then they will come. I did like the location, it wasn't too far from campus and it was on the #26 bus route which ran every ten minutes. The monthly rent was about $364.50 including cable, heat, and water which I thought was reasonable. Are electricty bill a month average a total of $24.00 and I thought that was cheap.

Overall, I will not move back here again and I do not recommend anyone to move here due to all the issues in the apartment. ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!!!
DO NOT MOVE TO ABBOTT POINTE APARTMENTS!!!!!!!!!!
