From -Anonymous-: I will preface my complaints by saying that some of the problems I've had at this residence have more to do with the area it is in than the owners.

From serpicosghost: Oh, where to begin. This apartment is a hole.

From -Anonymous-: I lived here during my entire time at Ohio State. I changed apartments once, moving from 42 to 50 during a transition period right after Northsteppe bought the complex, during which they refurbished the insides of all of the apartments; that was back in 2000.
