Hampshire Downs Apartments

Avoid ground floor From: -Anonymous- Date posted: 10/23/2005 Years at this apartment: 2005 - 2005   Apparently most ground floor apartments have water pipes (flush/tap etc) from floors above running through the bedroom wall. This is very annoying since you keep hearing the people above you flush. In our case, there's also air trapped in the pipes and the pipes keep making a lound banging noise everytime someone upstairs uses the tap or flushes (the trapped air needs to get out). Since the water pipes run through the bedroom wall, goodluck if you're trying to get some sleep or a quiet time!! Management says they cant do anything about it - since it would require major structural changes. I would avoid ground floor apartments.
