Resident 2014

This place is hands down the worst place I have ever lived. I have never lived somewhere so totally unprofessional and awful. Even the budget suites where I was living prior to this place was a thousand times more well maintained and managed. First off, the apartment we moved into looked like it had been remodeled by a three year old. There were carpet tacks jutting out, the sliding glass door frames were bent and the doors would not slide right, there was human hair painted onto the walls in multiple places, stains on the ceiling of my bedroom, no molding in the living room. There were nails sticking out of every door way, there were planks that were deteriorated to the point of falling apart on the porch outside. There were popcorn ceilings even though the model we had been shown did not have them. The model looks great, and what they actually give you is totally slummy and disgusting. There were issues with the electric, most of the outlets wouldn't hold a plug, and it was like the power was turned up to high because all our bulbs would break every other time we flipped a switch. It took months and months to get them to actually finish cleaning up the apartment to an acceptable level. The laundry facilities were always broken down and DISGUSTING like they never bothered to clean in there, there were random holes in the walls of the outside that were not ever fixed while I was living there. There was always issues with the lights turning on much too late, or not at all, and it made getting around in the dark very difficult. The sprinklers were always broken and shooting water 20 feet in the air creating giant puddles every where. Sometimes the one outside our bedroom window would break and it would spray water into our room. Even after they were "fixed" five seconds later they would be broken again. But worse than the awful apartment, was the MANAGER!!! Totally unproffesional and vindictive, she made it a point to harass us again and again because we had contacted her boss over the poor state of the apartment. All our neighbors would set their trash outside their door before taking it down, yet we were the only ones who got cited for it. She smoked right outside the office and the smell would drift into our apartment like she was standing there and doing it on purpose. It was very clear she did not like us because we rocked the boat, but we had thought we were moving into a decent place and this place turned out to be a total slum. On one occasion after we had written a letter to her boss she actually came up stairs to yell at us while I was in the middle of cooking dinner. She said she smelled something funny, and 15 minutes later we had the cops knocking on our door saying they had an anonymous tip that someone smelled drugs. We invited them in and of course they found absolutely nothing, and they couldn't smell anything but the salmon and squash we were cooking. The tip was "anonymous" but we knew very well it was her just being spiteful because she had gotten in trouble. We were eventually let out of our lease because the poor state of the apartment and the fact that they could not seem to fix things in a timely manner. This is one of the worst places to live in this area and you can get so much better for the price. Renter beware!
