I am now entering my 2nd year living at River's Edge, and I have to say that after today especially, I would live here longer. I was only looking for a cheap place withing walking distance to campus, but I got so much more. The only down side is I can hear the train fairly clearly from my bedroom.

When I moved in, the tenants in the apartment above me had cracked the seal around their toilet, causing a leak in my bathroom ceiling. Maintenance not only fixed the leak around their toilet without them calling, they fixed my pipe and repainted my ceiling while I was at class.

Later in my 1st year, a light had burned out in my kitchen. I never replaced it because I could use the overhead light on my stove. When a maintenance crew member came over to fix a blown circuit breaker in my dining area (connected to the kitchen), they took the additional time to fix the faulty lighting in the kitchen and they gave me a free box of light bulbs (usually $1 a pop).

When I went in to renew my lease, they offered me a bunch of promotional gifts for doing so, including a new ceiling fan for my bedroom or dining area, fresh caulking for my bathroom and kitchen. I think some other options were a broiler pan and something else, but they had choices.

Last night, my A/C unit completely shut off. I checked the circuit breaker and then called Emergency Maintenance. They came over in 20 minutes, examined my unit, and said it was a blown fuse, but since they were out of supplies, they couldn't fix it until morning. When I cam back from class today, they replaced my A/C unit with a brand-new one (remote controlled and energy efficient) at no extra charge to me.

I would highly recommend this complex to anyone who needs to be close to campus.

This is obviously total bullshi*t.
