I used to work at Melrose and I can assure you that all of the "staff" issues are not the actual workers. All of the office -------- comes from higher up in corporate. Melrose has the same problems that every other apartment complex has- slow maintenence at times, crazy move in, average parking, certain policies, etc. But I love Melrose because I have a lot of friends here and they all love it too. I love the community-wide programs that are put on. I love meeting other people that live here and I feel like I am part of a little Melrose network. I wish people weren't so selfish in all of their demands... go to the woodlands if your nose is that high in the air. The price is decent for a fully furnished apartment and that's all anybody can ask for. It's a lot better than the dorms.
