I was excited about this place when we moved in but soon disappointed...<br><br>I'd recommend this place if the maintenance was better. I feel kind of bad saying that because I think the maintenance guy Charlie is mentally challenged. He tries to do a good job but I don't think he has the skills to do much work. Sometimes he had to come back 4 times for a simple problem to re-fix it, and some of those times I'd just fix it myself because I got tired of him comming over.<br><br>The first problem we had was the A/C, the ducts are poorly designed and can't really cool the apartment off except at night. That's not such a big deal by itself except our A/C was horrible and on 24/7 and we were paying for it for a whole year. We complained several times during the year but the manager and maintenance said it was working fine, then finally they checked it out like they should have the first time and fixed it.<br><br>The other big thing was the internet connection. The free connection that comes with the apartment is the most unreliable internet I've ever seen or heard of. If you like having the internet you're going to have to pay for your own. You can always walk to the library when you have to get on the net. But if you have to do something for a class the night before and the library is closed, then you could be screwed.<br><br>I've stayed at 4 different complexes in San Marcos and I think Les Chateaux is a better deal. Even though it was built 20-30 years before this complex it had better management and maintenance. The A/C also worked a lot better and electricity and rent was way cheaper.<br><br>
