The Negative reviewer should go back to the frat house - This is an apartment NOT A BABYSITTER!

Years at this apartment: 2005 - 2006
I don't know if the 2 (yes, i know its the same person writing twice) negative people want a Babysitter or something, but this is a PERFECT APARTMENT COMPLEX.
My question to them is "have you lived in an apartment before''"
SOME HELPFUL TIPS:
1. IF YOU HAVE BUGS, THAT IS YOUR PROBLEM. Bugs don't just appear. I have a can of raid, some off, and a broom that i regularly spray around my baseboards in the house every month or so to get rid of bugs. Now that it is summer, if you see a wasp nest or a spider web in a crevice outdoors.. KNOCK IT DOWN!
2. WHEN DEALING WITH MAINTENACE, CALL OFTEN. I imagine this guy who just posted calls once, at 6pm before closing and says "i need my air filter changed"... think that will work' It should, but it won't. Call in the morning. If it isn't fixed, call the second you get home. Call every hour if you have to. THAT is how you get service in any apartment: the squeaky wheel gets the grease. This isn't high school where mom does everything for you.
3. YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE THE PLASTIC BAR AT THE GATE CLOSE ON YOU. The only people that happens to are people who tailage (i guess you), nonresidents (maybe still you), or idiots (you'). Yes, after huge thunderstorms the gate doesnt work, and by default the 'exit' gate is open so we all just share the in and out. Considering that has happened about 5 times in a year, and lasted a day at a time, I'm happy. And, I LOVE the idea that some joe six pack can't just come up and steal things. If you buy an extra swipe car ($15), you will never have the gate close on you.
4. KIDS AREN'T NOISY. I am single, don't have kids, what I'm amazed at is that I never hear the many dogs (all on leashes) that are being walked, nor the little kids. Maybe you're just cranky.
5. DON'T TAKE BEER TO A POOL AT ALL. This isn't Greek Weekend, and it ain't a Rush Party. This is an apartment, with residents aged from 2 to 82. I can't for the life of me figure out why you assume that you as a RENTER should have the right to bring alcohol to a family venue (swimming pool). If you can't enjoy a pool without beer, sit on your deck and drink there instead.
6. THIS IS AN APARTMENT, NOT A BABYSITTING SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am a single early 20s resident in Walden now, I have never had a single problem... I realize you must be 18 and never lived away from mommy, but GET REAL! The problem isn't the place, it's YOU! NO ONE has "BUGS" at this complex unless they leave food and beer out while they leave their door open to smoke (which, amazingly, I DEFINITELY CAN IMAGINE YOU DOING!)
