The walls are paper thin!!! I can hear every single move my next door and upstairs neighbors make... taking showers, flushing toilets, and kids jumping off of their beds upstairs and I feel as though the ceilings are going to cave in on me, regularly! My next door neighbors bass Reggaeton @ 6:00 AM, as well.
Furthermore, I overheard the maintenance people discussing the insulation beneath the structure one day outside of my open window and they decided they were only going to re-insulate up to a certain point because no one could even see past that certain point, so there was no need to bother. AWESOME because the energy bill is approx. 150/mo. There are raccoons and possums that live in the insulation and rip it up. These units are on "stilts", so there are all kinds of critters that reside under here.
I took the liberty to caulk/seal holes that were throughout my unit so that roaches could not get in because I saw some a few times. I wonder if the roaches are bypassing my apartment now and just going upstairs, which may explain the EXCESSIVE STOMPING my neighbors do so enjoy...
I really wanted to like it here, but I am unfortunately, I am at my wits end.
The windows and the sliding glass doors are shoddy, so you feel like you are outside no matter what! This place is an eco-enemy!!!
Please, save your money and sanity. Oh-- and the tenants let their dogs poo right under your window and will look you straight in the eye while their precious dog shats. Yummy.
