Beechstone is the worst place to live!

From: avoidbeechstone
Date posted: 6/19/2004
Years at this apartment: 2003 - 2004
 
I broke my lease early to get out of there!!!

Noise: You can hear other tenets TV's. I could hear the couple next door fighting all the time. Cars with loud music would drive bye at all hours of the night.

Staff: They are nice to you until you sign your lease and then it's down hill from there. They will harass you about stupid things. They are unhelpful when you call. It takes forever to get any thing fixed.

Laundry/Gym: WHAT A JOKE! The machines eat your money and never get your cloths dry. The gym has all old broken equipment.

Apartment: It has a nice layout, but needs to be remodeled. The brown stained carpets need to go. The Master Bath is way too small, you can't even turn around in the shower.

Parking: Is wok, though the spaces are very small, that is hard if you have a SUV.

Price: Way to high! They charge you for heat, hot water, and cold water.

Pets: Very pet friendly though the pet fee is a bit much, and I'm not really sure where that money goes'

I would avoid Beechstone at all costs, there is plenty of apartments in the Portsmouth area..I would shop around and use Beechstone as a last resort.

VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure to take pictures of the apartment when you move in. They are known for charging you for "normal wear and tear" I got a bill for $800 to replace the living room carpet. In the letter it stated that they were replacing the whole apartment due to "normal wear and tear" but they wanted me to pay for the living room. Now the living room is the entrance, wouldn't that out of all rooms receive the most wear and tear' In the end after writing letters and calling I ended up paying $350 so they wouldn't give me BAD CREDIT!
