Resident 2009 - 2011

1/18/2012

The apartments certainly are nothing glamerous, but I already knew that moving in. The worse part of my experience in this crap hole was the awful management. Super friendly in the beginning until you sign a lease.. then NOTHING was attended to and they were down right rude when you try to talk to them. I never got an official copy of my lease that I could even read. I contacted them about several issues and they were always super rude and will tell you you have to write into their head office in West Lansing for everything. What is the point of having onsight management if you can't talk to them?! The pool near my apartment was unusable for the entire three years I was there. I was crusted over and solid green. The tennis courts flooded with sprinklers making them completely unsuable. The dryer never worked and wouldn't get fixed after numberous complaints (it was from the 70s!). The sprinkler would shoot the cars under the car port, making it a game of dodge the fountain just to get into your car. I fortunately never had my car broken into, but I did have a crack head going door to door asking for money after 10pm at night on more than one occassion. He was a neighbor in the building. The walls are paper thin.. I could hear the lady from the building next door screaming at her kids all the time. The honking and ------ rap music late at night was horrendous and if you're not a smoker then don't move here. My apartment constantly stunk from the smoke filtering up through the vents from the lady below me. I would also wake up to hearing her kid running around in the morning which tells you if it wakes a person up out of a dead sleep, these are seriously thin walls AND floors. 2 of my neighbors fought all the time and I could hear every F bomb (don't move here if you have kids with sensitive ears!)The other major issue was shopping carts people would steal from Meijer and leave all over the complex. My car has multiple dents in it from stray carts and the management never did anything about it. Several feral cats on the grounds as well. What finally broke me was when they couldn't get anyone to move in so they dropped the rent for newcomers. Then after I was living there for over two years, they wanted to increase my rent to a total of $125 more than what they moved new people in for!! They could not be negotiated with so I left and good riddance! I have never encountered more rudeness in my life. They will lie and try to keep your deposit too. Overall, a horrific experience and I am to happy to be out of this craphole! Yes there were murders also just down the block. I never went out at night. Don't move here!
