Nice...if you want to live in the ------

I didn't know what I was getting into when I moved here. The apartments are huge which I thought was great for as cheap as they were. But you get what you pay for. When I was shown what was to be my apt, one of the bedroom doors had a huge hole in it (like it had been punched all the way through.) The manager assured me it would be replaced before I moved in. I put down my deposit to hold the apt. then 6 wks later moved in. The door was not replaced and the toilet in the main bathroom was missing the seat altogether and had MOLD growing in the bowl! I complained to the office who sent someone out right away to put a new seat on the toilet and measure for a new door. The next day they came with a new door, put it on and it didn't fit, so it couldn't shut all the way. We lived there for 6 months and they never came back and finished the job. The carpets were the cheapest I've ever seen and had horrible tar stains everywhere. I ran my shampooer over it at least 5 times and they never went away. I also had people showing up at my door wanting drugs thanks to the previous tenants who I was told sold pot, cocaine, you name it. Our son's toys were stolen off the back porch after only being left out there less than 10 minutes (not an exaggeration.) My husband went looking for the kids and never found them or our son's stuff. As it got closer to the end of our lease I found black mold surrounding the window in our room, but they never did anything about it. We are military and have rented apts in 4 other cities. This was by far the WORST place we've ever lived, hands down.
