Bell Tower Place Apartments

From the very first day of my move, none of the air conditioners in my new apartment were functioning, leaving me to endure the scorching summer heat. To make matters worse, the apartment had clearly not been cleaned before my arrival. The washing machine and dryer were filled with accumulated hair and dust, and I even discovered shattered glass in the dishwasher filter.

When I raised these concerns with the apartment management, their response was nothing short of appalling. They dismissed... the broken glass as something that could be easily removed in seconds and claimed it wouldn’t affect a lot my living conditions at all. They showed complete disregard for my concerns, refusing to address the issues and forcefully closing my complaints without resolution. To top it off, they denied my request to terminate the lease, leaving me trapped in this unacceptable living situation. Read More

3/4 tenants on one floor moved out in the same month. That should tell you enough about the apartment. Expect $80-$100 increase in rent YoY. Read More
