Resident 2014 - 2015

10/20/2015

I was attracted to Crittenden Way Apartments because of the price of rent compared to a place on Elmwood (WHICH I ADORED). I figured I would save some money. I was okay with the appliances not being completely new and not having a built-in microwave, but what I did not accept was the bug bugs, the disrespect, and the overall lack of consideration the staff has for its tenants. Now not everyone is bad, but the person who stands in for the owner is EXTREMELY RUDE. The FIRST day I moved in I had bed bugs biting me at night. At first I thought I was being bitten by spiders, but after googling and actually seeing one I knew different. I initially called the office to tell them and I was told that someone would check the place and if they see anything they would exterminate. I thought fine. I saw them so I know an expert would certainly see them. Later, I got a letter saying they had not sprayed b/c of lack of evidence. It wasn't until I yelled, showed pictures of the bug and bite marks that they actually sprayed. When the exterminator and I went into my apt together the second time he lifted the cushion and immediately saw one. All of 1min. Even as I told the lady at the front desk what I endured she said "It's not like they harm you". WHAT??? After that I had other incidences of poor heat control- either too hot in the summer (even with the windows up) or too cold in the winter. I had an incidence where I woke up to thousands of fruit flies in my bathroom then kitchen. I had no garbage out and I had just cleaned my house with bleach. It took about 4 days for them to exterminate. I had to find ways to get rid of them myself. The power constantly goes out which I can't say is their fault but is totally an inconvenience amongst everything else. What really upset me was having the agent for the owner become verbally aggressive with me. She illegally had my car towed because she deemed it non-drivable because the exhaust was hanging and tenants c/o that I was taking a spot. I was going to get it fixed, but had to go to NYC for a 4 days. There was no notice on my car when I got it out the towing lot. When I CALMLY went to speak to her after a week having a chance to cool down she yelled at me upon my arrival and asked me how dare I speak to her. I was supposed to speak to the front desk according to her. I attempted to tell her that I had already spoke to them but they sounded unsure. She had her hands in my face and her speech was very abrasive. Again, I had not even opened my mouth and she was already yelling. PLEASE DON'T LIVE HERE. THE LOWER RENT IS NOT WORTH THE AMOUNT OF DISRESPECT YOU RECIEVE. I took the time to write this just to warn others.
