Resident 2012 - 2013

4/30/2013

POOR (not fair as the rating only gives you its not fair at all its a $hithole) I am writing this review as a current resident to help others with their choice of whether they should move in or not. If I could go back in time I assure you I would not have and here is why. The construction of the units is absolutely as cheap as they could have done. The walls are paper thin and the all the appliances are VERY poor in quality. The construction is so horrible my place is literally crawling with ants and those rolly poly bugs everywhere. As for the water that's a completely different story. It's so bad it has rendered the dishwasher as a frivolous and paste laden square box due to the horrible water which is nothing I'd ever drink since it tastes so horrible and it literally has filled the water heater with huge deposit of scale which regularly spit out of the faucets in chunks. They've tried to clean the internal water tank but its still so bad it kills its efficiency which is pathetic to begin with. As for the windows and doors and general seals of the place.....be expected to be awful cold in the winter since they're so poor. You'll enjoy a nice gas bill over the winter months that's for sure. Which leads me into summer I just can't wait to see how much it'll cost to run the lackluster low grade AC unit that is in place. I am sure I'll have another huge summer bill if its hot. I have requested to hear from the owner of the facility yet I never received anything other than hearing from the property manager who tends to talk a lot and never really hears your concerns because he tells you all about the territory he has to cover and how well compensated he is for it. Like I care! The grounds are covered in dog feces as they do not enforce it and where there is grass and not mud or dirt you'll be sure to find a nice batch of dog poop. This in itself is just nasty as some days you can literally smell it in the air outside which makes for a nice treat when you can open your window if you try hard enough since the windows are so cheap. The state of the apartment when I moved in was absolutely horrific. I threatened to withhold rent and do you know what I was given? Dishwasher cleaner and some grass seed. Yep that's it! They've sprayed for bugs twice to no success and now I've pretty much given up on this dump as for it being anything other than a place to stay until I can get out. I hate it here and highly suggest you spend your money elsewhere. The staff ladies are nice but I get the feeling they talk about me after I leave as I am the complainer is the feeling I get when talking to them. I am going to start a petition to get the water system filtered as its now ruining my clothes or maybe it just the crappy washing machine but I am betting it's BOTH! I asked for a filtration system and they said buy your own. I'll charge them for damages of my goods since their water is so horrific. Bottom Line: DO NOT MOVE HERE YOU"LL HATE IT! It's a dump that's cared for very poorly which is no surprise as it certainly was constructed as cheaply as possible and believe me I work in the construction industry so I know.
