It is what it is. the ------.

Ok first of all this probably the best value in Akron. I will tell you that the apartments are old, they have been rehabbed, but they still have age to them (stairs creek, some patchwork on the ceiling etc. This place is in south Akron, a very depressed part of the city. I have lived her a month, and I will say it does still feel like the ------ even with the nice apartments. Until recently I couldn't hear my neighbors unless i went outside. but for Christmas I think they got a new stereo. oh well, I have been known to crank a few tunes from time to time. Oh and our neighbors seem to think the back yard is where the garbage goes. They did double bill me my first month, but they fixed the error quickly, and without much hassle (they even called me before I saw it online). With the repairs needed to the apartment, they were done quickly and as well as I would expect any maintenance man to do. (fixed within 24 hours) When we moved in the hot water was off, and I couldn't get the pilot started, I called emergency maintenance, they were there in less than an hour and got my pilot on. ---UPDATE----UPDATE--- We have since moved out! We had some bad neighbors move in October 2009. Since they moved in, there were fights, and noise problems. They tried to attack the neighbor with a knife. The cops came out every day to deal with them. I complained to the management 3 weeks in. Since they moved in, every apartment on my street got broken into by the back door...Even on christmas eve, nothing is sacred. I was promised 3 different dates that they would be evicted. end of december, end of january, and Februrary 5th. I was concerned for our safety, so I installed some passing link chain to go across the door, and put expanded metal over the window. on the last day in february, they tore though the screen and got in though the dining room window and stole my electronics, (they still couldn't get through the chain, so they didn't get my tv) but I had snow prints going from my house to theirs. This was a failure of management. And it isn't a safe place. Really, figure out a way to live in a smaller place and don't move here. A lot of people here are complaining, I think they just didn't pay their rent. It appears that the company doesn't treat people well who don't. I pay my rent, and they are the sweetest kindest people, and they have really taken care of me. What can I say, you are living in south Akron, not Stow. Things aren't perfect, but, for the price, I would like someone to find a better deal. Lastly, My friend spent the night and left in the morning a few hours before I got up and he didn't shut the door right. My door was open for 2 hours with me fully asleep. The only people who entered were the police to wake me up and tell me my door was open. nothing stolen. In fact a neighbor called it in. I think this place is on the come up. And it is a great place for you if you are making your first come-up.
