COLLEGE PARK Apartments

It was hard to get myself to even give this place one star. There was a lot that went wrong this year- the attached pictures show many (not all) of the damages that were present before I even moved in. One of which was a leak on the ceiling of the shower. The entire ceiling was sagging and the water leaked into the shower. It took about three work order requests (a week or so) for them to come and fix this problem which was a health hazard.
Not long after moving in, I also noticed a frequency of... mattresses that other residents had put in the dumpster, it was almost a weekly thing. My neighbor informed me this was due to bedbugs - which she had also had because of the apartments. Despite my best efforts, the bedbugs made their way into my room in early spring. I had brought in all new furniture, yet the apartment management claimed that I did not have enough evidence to prove the bedbugs came from their complex. After my wife and I had disassembled the bed frame and moved the mattress and box spring (both of which had protective coverings around them- which we had to replace with new ones costing us $115) slept in the living room for about a month. We had to wash all of our clothes twice to ensure the bedbugs had not gotten into the clothes (costing us a total of about $150). We ended up throwing out our brand new bed frame since it had gotten so infested.
For treatment options, the complex could bring an exterminator in to spray the room- an option that they would not guarantee to work. They conveniently did not communicate that this would cost us $300 until they already started treatments. On top of all of this, the exterminator could not even get into our room because the apartment office had lost their key, asking if I had changed the lock- which I hadn't. I had to give them my key so they could do the treatments on the bedbugs that they were responsible for.
Living here was such a nightmare, I do not recommend this place. Read More

I moved in to these apartments because there was nothing else available at the time. They are way too small and way over priced. During the move-in process, Tonya the Office manager, and Kim the Property Manager were nice and really seemed like they care for their complex, I thought maybe this wont be so bad. Nope. As soon as I moved in, that completely changed.

When I moved in to my apartment, their was sitting water in the cabinet under my sink. the wood was horribly warped and molded. There... were items left in the apartment by the maintenance dept. There was even rice and a dead roach in the kitchen cabinets that got painted over! they couldn't even be bothered to clean the apartment before I moved in!

After living here for a little while, I noticed there was a strong smell of marijuana coming in from my vents. I do not smoke, and this was very off putting and made me sick to my stomach. I called the office to inform them that residents are smoking weed (which in illegal in this state) and I was told "What people do in their homes is not my business". Seriously?? This is your complex?!

Roaches everywhere. the office just says "We know about it and are working on it" but I never saw any evidence of them working on it.

Break-ins happening all the time. Nothing gets done. The staff doesn't care about any of their residents. They just want your money. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else. I broke my lease and moved after just 6 months, I couldn't stand it anymore. STAY AWAY FROM COLLEGE PARK. Read More

The appartments are substandard with small living areas and are completely over priced due to the location across from the college. The only saving grace is the polite maintaince man who tries to make wine out of water working on the grounds. The woman (Kim) who is in charge of the office is for lack of a better word, wretched. She over charged me on multiple occasions, refused to update my name in the system thus forcing me to pay under a previous tenants name and was down right rude. When... asked questions she often wouldn't even respond back, ignoring me to my face or would shout from around the corner from her desk. If you have any self love, do not move here. Read More

Several break-ins (we assume by previous tenant that has a key), many times we have come home to the keyless deadbolt locked with no one inside! Our complaints are met with "oh that's terrible" from management... DOGS OFF LEASH EVERYWHERE. Tenants let their dogs out from their back porches to go to the bathroom and don't pick it up and responsible pet owners get blamed because they're the one's seen taking their dogs out... ROACHES EVERYWHERE. Management takes at least a month with several... notifications to send someone to spray (could legally break lease due to this)... Loud neighbors, barking dogs left on porches, rude management in handling complaints and work orders... Do not live here. Read More

I have lived at this apt over 8 years and I had enjoyed it. Located across the street is Weatherford College, and the stores are just down the block. As far as living here goes, I can not think of anywhere the managers take a personal interest in their clients.Last summer, my AC went out and it took only two days for them to get me a new one. Also when my dish washer went out, it took them a week to order and install a brand new one. ... I am disabled and use a wheelchair, and there is a lip at the front door when I frist moved in they made a wooden ramp for me, then about 7 months ago they made a cement ramp for me. Another reason that this is the place for me to live, when I had to go the hospital back a few years ago, the managers made sure that when I got home I was okay and had enough food and anything else I may have needed. I can not think of a better place to live. Read More
