I have lived in Hampton Hills for about a year and a half, and I definitely plan on leaving and never looking back. The first lease I signed was a 6 month, and for that period things weren't too bad. However, as soon as I signed the year long lease the way I was treated went to hell!
I am a fairly young resident, therefore I get blamed for anything that goes wrong in my building. One night, when I was not even home, glass was broken and there were some guys talking in the parking lot, both of which I was asked about. The walls are also as thin as paper and, thus, I have gotten complaints for absolutely ridiculous reasons. I got one complaint for walking up my stairs to my apartment too loudly. Yes, you read that right, I got a complaint for walking. I am afraid to have more than 1 friend over past 10 o'clock, even for just a late dinner and a movie, because the walls and floors are so thin, and if we make a tiny little peep, you can bet there will be a notice on the door in the morning.
In another instance, a friend of mine was on leave from the army and staying with me. The manager of the apartments told me that he was not allowed to visit unless he was on the lease. He only was staying with me for a week.
Continuously, there is a disgusting ant problem! If you leave fresh fruit on your counter you can bet that within a few days you will have an ant and fly infestation. I have also found a mouse trapped in my garbage can under the sink.
My appliances are also less than satisfactory. My refrigerator is so dry that if i put any bread product in it, it comes out stale. One time, I had grapes in there, and they turned into raisins. My oven has extremely sparatic temperatures, and I never really know how long to cook things, as it varies from time to time. My shower also decides to change temperature and pressure at will. I often feel as though I am showering in a warm rain.
The management is extremely unhelpful and rude. If there is a problem, instead of trying to figure things out with you, she will assume the worst. I work until late, and often times do not get home until after midnight. She confronted me about this, implying that me getting home after quiet time was unacceptable. I don't know about you, but as an independent person, paying for the place I live, I think I deserve the right to come home whenever I desire.
So unless you enjoy being a prisoner in your own home, and not allowed to have any guests other than the bugs and rodents that share your space, do NOT live at Hampton Hills.
