Review History for anonymous

Avoid like the plague of rats living in your kitchen...

This was my first apartment out of college. It was really close to work and convenient to everything. While it is in an awful neighborhood, the complex itself is actually pretty nice and secure since its off Roswell Rd. a bit. The 2 bedroom floor plan was great for my roommate and I. Additionally, the tennis court was great, and the pool is famous for the attractive people that hang out there on weekends. When I originally signed up, the office staff were nice and easy to deal with. <br> <br>The problems came in many areas: <br> <br>Twice there were horrible ant infestations (we´re talking trails of ants through the entire apartment. probably hundreds of ants). Despite requests to the office, they were handled with lots of bug spray. The cause was a neighbor leaving their garbage outside. We notified the office of that, and they did nothing about it. They informed us that the ants were after "water" because it was summer. They promised to send an extermintaor and never did. <br> <br>The neighborhood is awful. While my car was never broken into, many were. The apartment complex is simply in a very bad area. The gas station on the corner had cops there for one problem or another almost every night. Its been shutdown and reopened many times. <br> <br>When a bathroom started to have a plumbing problem, I called the emergency maintenance number. The crack maintenance team answered and said they would check in the morning. We told them the water was starting to get pretty bad, but they ignored the warning. The next morning, we awoke to 3 apartment buildings having flooded bottom floors (including ours). They did not replace the carpet (just the padding), and offered no discount that month for the inconvenience. <br> <br>Like someone else mentioned, the walls are paper thin. You hear EVERYTHING. The person above us was a single female of average size, but it sounded like she weighed 500 lbs when she was walking around. <br> <br>The rats problem is real and has been confirmed by someone else I knew that lived there. Again, the office was no help, so we had to take matters into our own hands with an air rifle. <br> <br>In one bathroom, a pipe fell through the celing into the tub. The office tried to repair it 3 times. Each time, the paint bubbled, buckled, and eventually the pipe was back inside the room where it did not belong. Needing a helmet to use a bathtub is not a good thing. <br> <br>There are better apartments in the area for similar prices. Shop around, and you´ll be pleasantly surprised.
