Yo!
 

Getting an apt in Marchwood is like taking the bar

They are INCREDIBLY picky about who gets an apartment here at Marchwood.

They have a tendency (they meaning TOM) to insist falsities "You're the first on the list!"

For example, I am a student sharing an apartment with three other girls. We applied for a large two bedroom in which the manager suggested we reside in a smaller apartment for the time being while we waited just a FEW MONTHS for the larger apartment to be available. It is now a year a half later and I am still living in my small apartment, uncomfortable sharing a bedroom. The apartment has several holes in the walls that continue to exist because my maintenance requests are ignored.

Maybe I've just had a bad experience with Marchwood. I'm sad to say that what I thought would be my dream apartment is definitely not, and I am moving out come summer.

i am a long time resident of the marchwood and college studets are very hard on the rest of the regular residents of the marchwood, they pack 3-4 students in a 2 bedroom apartment which causes a lot of noise, wear and tear. they forgot how safe they are here. i'm sure management did not allow you to move to a larger apartment for reasons well known to you. P.S. don't you still live here? summer is over!!!!

I lived at the Marchwood for 4 years while attending Temple. If you think getting in is like taking the bar, it's pretty obvious why your having problems. What a nit wit! Tom and Steve have to deal with people like you on a daily basis, trust me they know what they're doing. You need to move further down into Germantown, than you'd have something to actually complain about.
