Used to be nice

When my husband and I first moved into the Royal arms, the management/building condition was excellent. We have been living almost two years when the building was sold and the management was taken over by another company. Since then, the building has degraded drastically. The new manager keeps less than 4 hours a day. Maintenence requests have to be put on a clip board outside her office and 'might' get seen to at some undisclosed point. The hallways and grounds are no longer cleaned. The manager has since decided to completely refuse to receive any packages, so if you work normal business hours, you will never get your packages. She won't even let the delivery people in the door.

On top of all that, the rent is being jacked up way beyond the worth of the apartment. We have a tiny little apartment (600 sq ft) and are paying nearly $750 for it.

I would not recommend anyone move into this building while it is under the current management.
