Things were okay when I first moved in, then everything went downhill...
1. My upstairs neighbors were so loud at 3am that they literally woke me up on several occasions. I wrote a letter to management to complain, but no real changes.
2. The parking situation is a joke. Recently, I came home at around 1:30am on a weekend, and there were NO SPOTS. I mean not even one single resident OR visitor spot! I had to drive around for 45 minutes until someone actually went out. Ridiculous.
3. I have complained about the lighting situation, but nothing really has been done. The lights in the parking lot are so dim, they might as well not be there. And this on top of the fact that I have to park across the street at 2am and walk 1/2 a mile to my apt in complete darkness really pisses me off.
4. My dryer was broken, and I was told it would be fixed by that weekend. That turned into a total of almost 3 weeks and being given the runaround.
5. My stupid access code for the health center never works, so I have given up.

On the plus side, the staff is pretty friendly and the apartments are big, but there is way too much to ----- about to make me stay here another year!
