Awful...

I didn't like living at Scandia one bit. I lived in a 2-bedroom apartment. First of all, this place is very old. Something breaks just about every week. Have a cell phone' Don't count on comfortably using it inside the apartment: the reception inside is horrible - I had to go outside and talk on the phone many times. Next, the laundry room appears very clean when they take you on the tour. DON'T BE FOOLED. That is them doing window dressing - it is usually extremely dirty as no one ever cleans up, and the dryers are full of lint. They also have a questionable maintenance crew - they are fairly creepy. However, maintenance does get the job done pretty quickly. Next- I really have no idea who management is. There is someone new every week it seems, and they are not friendly at all. And it is never comfortable..its either muggy or cold. Also, parking can be a problem because the "christians" in the church across the street think it is christ-like to use this apartment's visitor parking spots. Also, they are fast to try to slap late fees on. They even tried to give me a late fee one day before the due date for my bill. Plus, this apartment is wide-open to the entire city- so anyone can roam it. I once got approach by some homeless guy in the parking lot..I thought I was going to be mugged. And my roommate had some lady knock on her door for a couple of weeks asking for money.

And now for the positives: When they aren't being hogged, the apartment has a good number of visitor parking spots. Maintenance gets things done quickly. Hmmmm, yeah, thats about it.

Here's the bottom line: For the amount of money it costs to live at Scandia, you can get so much more and better at some other apartment complex. Say No To Scandia.
