Yo!
 

Horrible place to live...

Years at this apartment: 2006 - 2007

 
My wife and I moved here in May of 2006 because of the price offered. A three bedroom apartment with 1200 sq ft for 805 a month! Whatta deal! Turns out that this is the worst apartment complex we've ever lived in. The management is constantly changed and shifted and never leave notes or communicate with each other so any time you leave a message with someone other than management at the office you are guaranteed to not get a response. When we moved in we had these immediate problems: the doorknob on the spare bedroom was missing and replaced with a lock only so the door was never able to be closed and we never had a key, air conditioning issues of leaking and unable to reach the entire apartment so some rooms would be freezing and others unbearably hot, the tub in the master bedroom would constantly fill and drain when the upstairs neighboors would use their washer and dryer, and other issues that weren't life threatening but just things that should have been taken care of before we moved in. Also, this complex WILL NOT let you attach a dish satelite to ANY part of the building including your patio making it impossible to get satellite if you prefer it and having to get their crappy cable, which they have a deal with. It is now February of 2007 and the pipes of the building are STILL not repaired or working correctly. Woke up this morning and cannot flush the toilets and have to wait for maintenance to get here. Ashley told me they were in the office at ten 'til eight AM and that he was coming over at that time, a walk of about 100 yards. It's now 9:46 Am and still nothing. My wife has to go to the apartment office to use the restroom. The shower in the master bath goes from freezing cold to scalding hot in seconds, causing us to dance and leap out of the way and take twenty minutes for a ten minute shower. Also the locks on the gates around the complex are either broken or completely missing sometimes so all sorts of people walk around the apartments who don't live here at all hours of the night. Our front window of our apartment was broken one night while my wife and I and son were away for a couple of hours on Friday and after calling and leaving a message with the answering service on Friday, then with Chris on Saturday and again with Chris on Sunday, I call today and find that Ashley knows nothing about it.
These are just the things in the front of my mind. The management of this complex has got to be the worst I've ever encountered. My wife and I pay our rent every month on time and good, quiet tenants yet we're treated badly any time something goes wrong and we have to bring it up. I will definetly tell anyone and everyone about this property and when I find out who the owners of this property are I will complain to them and also to the Houston Apartment Association.
DO NOT RENT FROM THIS PROPERTY! I warn you!
