Elevators continue to break down and place is infested with roaches
Pros:
1. Staff is friendly and helpful
2. Good location for me
Cons:
1. The other reviews are correct - there are a lot of roaches here. The exterminator gets around to the apartment about 3 times a year. If you continue to see roaches you can ask the main office to have them come again. The exterminator usually just walks in, does 2 quick sprays/squirts on the floor in front of the sink and leaves. It's good for about 3 weeks. Then you start seeing roaches again(usually baby ones in my apt).... I am constantly having to buy Raid and use it every weekend. That usually keeps the roaches away, but I shouldn't have to spend money, and breath in Raid fumes all the time.
2. The elevators are constantly breaking down. There are 11 floors here and people either have to stay in their apartments until the elevators get fixed or walk up and down the stairs (carrying groceries, work laptops, brief cases, etc. at times)
3. As another reviewer wrote there is a smell in the hallways, and usually some light trash/paper on the floors where people drop stuff and don't pick it up. The strong, spicy smell, I think, comes from all the cooking some people do inside their apartments seeping out onto the hallways. The carpet has been here a long, long time. And yes, you do smell marijuana at times.
4. People don't seem to care about cars here. I have more dents in my car since moving here a few months ago then I've ever had. Also, some people like to always take up two parking spaces and the office says there's nothing they can do about that. So, you end up having to park in the very back of a large parking area because others want to take up two spaces in front of the building. I've never lived anywhere else where the office wouldn't take care of this issue.
5. There has been a smell coming from the refrigerator area in my studio apt. It almost smells like escaping Freon. Visitors have noticed it, and so did one of the office staff. However, Maintenance apparently can't smell anything. I'm breathing in whatever this is, yet nothing is being done.
