New management is terrible!

I have to agree with the last poster. I have only lived at the vintage for a year, but things have changed rapidly. I really loved this apartment for when I moved in. It was a little expensive, but it was quiet and well kept. Since they changed management a few months ago, however, things have been different. To be specific here are a few examples...
1. The day after the management switch I got a nasty note on my door stating that if I didn't remove "unapproved items" from my patio, I could be evicted within 24 hours. The unapproved item mentioned was a papasan chair I had out there so I could study in relative peace. It was not dirty, it was not broken, it just wasn't "patio furniture," whatever that means.
2. My A/C went out and after waiting for a good portion of the day the guy finally shows up. He spends an hour running back and forth between the units and claims it's fixed. It isn't. I complain again and this time he says it's a part that he doesn't have. Finally, about a week later, the thing gets fixed. This is San Antonio, folks. My apartment averaged 87 degrees with all the windows open and fans on.
3. Finally, I just moved out and got a bill for "phantom charges" like the previous poster mentioned. My deposit was only $300 because I signed on with a special, but suddenly I owe them another $50. This included almost $100 cleaning fee after my roommate and I spent a solid day going over the place with a fine tooth comb.
Anyway... at the end of my rant I'll just say this: The apartments are nice, but they should be for what you pay. However, dealing with the new management has been probably the most unpleasant experience I've had since I moved to San Antonio. Save yourself the trouble and stay away!
