Basically, the saying is true; you get what you pay for. Although, it was my first apartment without living with my parents from day one, I wanted to leave. To start, if you hate bugs, do not live here. There is every type of bug here from centipedes to colored spiders (I woke up one morning with dead spider legs on my blanket). Then, I walked outside my bedroom door and found the biggest centipede I ever saw in my entire life on the crack of the door. Anyway, this wasn t just a few bugs, this was an infestation. I tried borax, industrial bug spray, calking, basically everything you could think of to end the bug infestation and nothing worked. I repeat NOTHING!!!
If you live on the ground floor (first floor) expect to hear everything and I mean EVERYTHING. From a sneeze to a whisper. These walls are paper thin and you will not get any sleep, especially if you are a light sleeper. There is only one air condition unit for the entire apartment, so if you like to sleep in the bedroom at night, you might need to sleep in the living room since that is the only place where the air conditioner is. Don t expect it to work well though; it blew sparks every time I turned it on.
Not to mention, there are other safety hazards such as the mold covered walls. When I say covered, I mean covered because the mold is covered by white paint all over the apartment. Instead of fixing the mold problem, the cheap people hear have decided to cover over it by painting over it, you will easily notice the bumpy walls that have been painted over to hide the mold spores.
The apartment is a decent size for the price but it is obliviously is not worth all these problems in my eyes. I was a healthy college student when I graduated. I spent one winter here and experienced more health problems then I ever had in my entire life thanks to these hazardous problems. I even ended up in the ER. These apartments are like hundred years old. There are putty marks all over to try to cover up the holes in the walls.
Please just don t move here if you have a family. There is absolutely no parking. Even if you have one car, I hope you don t have a lot of friends because they will have to park like a mile away to come and visit you. Parking is impossible.
The laundry mat is expensive. Its so ghetto that they used a cardboard paper wedge to fix the door that had a broken lock. So, much for feeling secure. Oh yeah, and the cops like to visit these apartments a lot for whatever the reason may be. My boyfriend said he saw them here on more then one occasion. People like to talk late at night and party outside the doors drinking with no respect for anyone.
They say no pets but there is dog poop everywhere and I have seen all sizes and kinds of pets here. If you don t like animals feces don t move here.
The pool is never open. Oh yes, and unless you have a car, this place is useless. The closest Wa-wa or Wal-Mart is at least 15 mins away, nothing in walking distance.
I have just tried to warn you about the truth. They say University Park , but all I have witnessed is a bunch of weird looking perverts and homeless people trying to come into the laundry mat. Please, if you care about your safety and health don t move here. I never felt safe here, especially when the maintenance person came in without knocking. Two words LOOK ELSEWHERE!!
