Porta Rossa Apartments

I owed $12 and was being threated to be evicted. I understand the law is the law but $12 is enough for an eviction notice?

The apartment itself is alright, a little old but alright.

No excellence found here. Descriptions are lies. Purported policy says "no aggressive breeds," yet there are numerous pitbulls or pitbull mixes here. 25 lb. weight limit for dogs is not enforced. Also, despite bag dispenser and disposal units around the premises, many people don't pick up after their dogs.

Gang members, or gang wannabes have begun infiltrating the complex; police are here 3 or 4 times/month, at least. There is no quiet; loud music, loud talking, car horns at all hours inundate... the area. There was recently a gang-type riot on premisis, with at least on person critically injured. People, non-residents, come through the complex at all times of the day and night.

Trash is everywhere. The dumpster area looks like a landfill with trash spilling over and out of the dumpsters onto the ground. Discarded used furniture often lines the wall of the building closest to the dumpster area. The newly refurbished laundry room has been repeatedly vandalized.

My advice, find someplace else to live. Read More

I would give it zero stars but there is no option. This is the worst place ever.The management suck and they are never available. They don’t tell you they are infested with roaches. They come and “fumigate” but they won’t go away.Trust me you don’t want to live here. There is never any parking to have friends or family come over or your car will get towed away by the security.

Their waste management is horrible. They have 4 large trash bins for the entire complex (no recycling option-not environmentally friendly) that are uncovered and ore often overflowing. During windy days, the trash literally is EVERYWHERE; on the grass, scattered in the parking lot area, and the sidewalks are often littered with trash. During hotter days, you can smell the trash from inside your apartment since it's located in the middle of the complex. Never have a seen them clean the bins once,... and I think this is the main reason for their giant rat/cockroach problem. They also have a big termite problem, but I think it's also because of all the infestation that gets attracted by the trash. Tried to talk to management, been ignored, tired of being ignored and smelling trash. Definitely will not recommend. Read More

I wouldn't recommend to live here not one bit. Sadly as good as it looks and what they say, they're no perks to it. The apartment is really tiny inside. You will have cockroaches inside your apartment no matter how clean or how much you make the effort to get rid of them and better yet you will have mold inside your apartment too. Usually residents don't know when it's time not to get loud but yet they don't care. Residents dogs usually seem to be off the leash and attack other residents dogs,... which it's annoying. Porta rossa doesn't really have maintaince on site and when they do maintenance doesn't really want to help you in your needs or do anything to make sure the apartment complex is clean and sometimes they like to act like they're the manager. Lastly the patrol is just to check on the pool but the pool only gets cleaned one a month. Read More
