DTN Management SUCKS!

From: -Anonymous-
Date posted: 10/18/2001
Years at this apartment: 1999 - 2001
 
While Arbor Glen Apartments are very nice, the management company SUCKS! Even though I always paid rent 2 weeks early, one time I had a problem with MSUFCU. DTN was unwilling to work with me while I got things straightened out with the bank. DTN slapped on a $75 late fee and threatened with $49 in court filing fees and eviction, of course.







The hot tub is rarely working...when it is the water is nasty.







The workout facility is lame. No treadmill.







The power in the apartment goes out once in awhile. If you have a computer, connect it to a power strip for protection. My roommate?s computer fried (CPU AND motherboard went after a power failure/surge).







Parking is a nightmare if you live in one of the buildings on the east side. Not to mention they tow your ass almost immediately if you park next to the dumpster or in a snow pile area (regardless of the presence of snow).







The people in the office have no idea what?s going on. They screwed up my lease (of course because there are only 4 blanks to fill in). The turnover rate in the office is about 80% so there is no consistent dialogue with anyone. Tell someone that you think you?re going to stay and re-sign the lease, the next week you get a move-out notification in the mail because that person has left and never told anyone that you?re staying. They even assigned my apartment to someone else even though I told them 3 (yes, three!) times that I was staying!







All in all my problem is mostly with the management company. DTN SUCKS! They have bad people and bad policies.










is an update: My original review was on 10/18/01. As of 11/28/01 the hot tub was still out of order (they?re cheap bastards). Now it has been repaired, but only 1/2 of the jets work. Only 1/2 work because one of the pumps went bad because it took them so long to fix the heater!
