    DO NOT LIVE HERE!!

    I never write reviews and I never insult people or places. That being said, if you want a calm and relaxing environment, utilities that work, competent management, or even barebones necessities like laundry rooms or mailboxes that work correctly, DO NOT LIVE HERE!

    When I first moved in, they refused to give me a fire alarm for two weeks. After I got the fire alarm, it came on randomly whenever anything even remotely hot was near it, to the point that I didn’t have it connected unless I was
    asleep because the piercing noise would happen all the time! After that, nothing seemed to go right. The garbage disposal gets clogged every time it’s used, and when I ask them to fix it, they “clean” it without fixing the issue of the actual disposal being broken so it just clogs again over and over.

    The mailbox fiasco? Wait until you hear this one. The mailbox door was busted open and filled to the brim with old mail, so I couldn’t get to any of mine. Every time I asked them to fix it, they said it was fine. I personally dug out the mail by hand for an hour only to find out that they simply hadn’t given me the key at all to begin with (I’d been using my apartment key), which I only found out the 5th time I complained. The kicker? I was the one who asked, if I had left it up to them, I NEVER would’ve gotten the key at all.

    But this week really takes the cake. So my power goes out in half of the apartment last Tuesday right? No big deal, blown breaker. Wrong! Maintenance comes and says they need to call the energy company, the energy company says they need a new meter and they’ll be in contact with management. Management swore they’d have it on today and then failed to do so. Do you know how cold I’ve been? The temp has gotten down to 45! Are you kidding me? I even asked for a space heater and what did they say? “No sir we don’t have one, your power will probably be back on tomorrow. If not YOU CAN CALL YOURSELF.” Hello?? Have they called at all? Do they care that I have a very strong lawsuit against them? Breach of contract anyone? They certainly don’t have what they promised. Negligence? I’ve gotten sick from the freezing cold and have had to move someplace else temporarily at my own expense.

    The only people who should live here are the children of attorneys. You’ll make millions.

    One last time, for everyone in the back who thought “oh this place looks pretty!” DO NOT LIVE HERE!!!
