I've been at Wimbledon Court for almost 2 years and I can't wait to leave here. Yes it's a nice size apartment, but there is no place for storage, the parking lot is the pits. If you have more than one car you have to fight for a parking space. Most of the neighbors are not friendly, and if you are not a pet lover, there are dogs everywhere. They do there business right in front of my door often. The rent is much too high for what you get. You have you own heating unit in each apartment that's loud and often keeps me awake at night, and we have to stuff the windows in the other bedroom with paper because it drafty. For the money there should be more luxury and storage space. The kitchen cabinets and stove are crap, and the rent keeps going up and up. People keep moving in. and moving out.
All in all not worth the money, and not a place you want to call home vWhRVi5nYYIuEh4W7K3l

I only have ONE thing to say. If you arent a pet lover then this isnt the place for you! When you were apartment hunting maybe you missed the part where it said big dogs OK on the rental listing. What did you expect???? Dogs dont use the toilet they do what is natural for them and they arent aware the space in front of your window is off limits. I get really annoyed by people like you who take up space in a pet friendly apartment and whine about the obvious, when there are so few good ones out there! GO move into a no pets allowed apartment there are PLENTY of those! And you wont catch anything 'doing its business' in front of your window! People keep moving in and out because thats what apartments are for most people a temperary respite and this frenzy only happens when the apartment complex is in high demand!(that is a sure sign THIS place despite your opinion is a GOOD one) Many of the things you point out here like your own heating unit...is a good thing "more luxury for the money..???" are you kidding have you been apartment shopping in the last decade??? This a great deal for the price and a large living space. As for stuffing the windows...call the office and have them come see what can be done. Do you expect them to read your mind and know your problems??? As for the neighbours being "friendly" not sure what that means do you want them to bring you pie and host tea parties??? If so you are right we are not"friendly". We dont try to run your over in the parking lot or throw stones at your window at wee hours of the morning either! We are all involved in our own lives and if you ever needed a neighbourly hand I am sure we would rise to the occasion. If you think you find better neighbours and better service elsewhere I beg you to try and open up your apartment to someone who has a pet or two and actually 'wants' to be here. If not ....well you know what this 'friendly' neighbour has to say...
