Huge complex

Years at this apartment: 2007 - 2009
 

Pros:
-Office staff is usually friendly, but not always.
-Decent parking.
-Large balconies with a pretty large storage closet.
-South most building that runs East to West is newer and thus nicer.
-Some nice amenities like the swimming pool that gets closed down every other week for somebody shitting in it (There are signs stating you can't use the pool if you have suffered any diarrhea in the past 2 weeks or something. Nobody seems to pay attention.), barbecue grills that are used by most people to dispose of cigarette butts and beer cans, and grassy areas that seem to be swamps instead of a yard.
-Seems like a relatively safe area for being in the city. For those of you who have commented on it being 'very unsafe', welcome to living in a big city...But seriously. This is Salt Lake, which is NOTHING compared to other big cities like LA.
Cons:
-Thermostats NEVER work properly.
-Minuscule and slow to refill water heaters. Hot water lasts very little time.
-Painting was obviously done by a blind one-armed monkey. Paint brush marks and paint drips all over the place.
-There appears to be a connection between top and bottom floor in the bathrooms in the cabinets. The bathroom cabinet has a hole in the sheetrock cut out to accommodate the knob used to turn the water on and off. I think there is a matching hole downstairs. I've had 2 downstairs neighbors in a row smoke and I can smell cigarette smoke quite often (I don't smoke at all).
-Management claims they talk to loud neighbors, but I've never seen any improvement. Had to call the police because we had a neighbor shouting and playing his freaking guitar at 3 in the morning. What in the hell'
-You may think the property is FULL of crime because occasionally you notice curious white clouds of marijuana smoke drifting around (okay no clouds, but you can smell it for sure). People smoking pot in their apartments are doing you no harm. Relax.
-People think the parking lot is a racetrack. I may not have the skills of a police officer at judging speed (i.e. that is, a speed gun), but I've seen people literally drive through the lot at what I guess is about 50mph.
Biggest con of all: For the size of the apartments, the prices are riiiiiiidiculously high and they charge you an insane amount of money for water. It's water, not vodka! It shouldn't cost $60/month extra! $60 for a month of vodka is a pretty nice deal though.
If you are desperate for an apartment and don't mind putting up with a few nuisances, they will suit yourself or a small family adequately, but look around a bit before making a final decision. I will post a recommended rating for only one reason...
