Noise is terrible
Been here for only 2.5 months and I want to move out already. I live above tenants who stomp. I get they're heavy walkers but I don't think courtesy exists. The tenant was rude and inconsiderate. The first week, my sister and I both went up to politely let her know that people live below her and can hear all the movements. She yelled back at us with an attitude which has been a big factor into why we don't like this apartment. From what we've experienced so far, some neighbors are not friendly.... I don't understand those who say "This is apartment living. You have to deal with it." Why should I? I'm paying my money to live here. It's to the point where we know exactly where she's walking, what she's doing and when she's home. Whenever they walk, they vibrate our apartment, ESPECIALLY when her son runs. All we've ever asked for is courtesy and it's not something we get. Would not raise a family here.
Also, management isn't the greatest because they won't/don't do anything about it. The new manager is nice and understanding enough but all they ever tell me is that they can't do anything about it. I don't quite understand how you tell me that you can't tell her how to walk or be more courteous, yet at the same time she's disturbing our peace and quiet and it doesn't matter to you? Quiet hours specifically say 10pm to 7am. She wakes up at 6 (sometimes 5:30AM) and stomps around the whole hour getting ready for work. Technically, they're not following regulations as she needs to stay quiet (STOMPING INCLUDED) until 7am.
I know it's an old building, but perhaps fixing the carpeting or sound insulation might be beneficial to future tenants. Everyone deserves to have their peace and quiet and my sister and I have not experienced it here. Our neighbor upstairs is seriously going to break through the floor one day. I wake up every morning between 5:45AM-6AM to their stomping and it's affecting my sleep patterns. Would NOT recommend this place until you've FULLY inspected it. Ask for a showing in the evening when you can hear the neighbors walking upstairs.
Thank the LORD we are moving out in December to a 3rd floor unit, away from the terrible and inconsiderate noise upstairs. I hope that serves us better.
