Review History for GoodTenant2003

Depends how you look at it....

If you want to see good, you'll see it. If you want to see bad, you will surely find it. We've been tenants since 2005. During the Stonebridge days, life was much nicer. The gate worked. There weren't any pipe/water issues. Management on-site were consistent. Turnover was relatively low. Sure, there were minor flubs due to the close proximity to the freeway, etc. We overlooked them. The property was managed well. Price was right. Large spacious apartments. Love the layout of the kitchen. Love the fact that the washer/dryer is an full-sized upright AND isn't connected to the kitchen. Love all of that! However, something bizarre has happened to the quality of life at what is now known as the Mosaic at Sandy Springs. First, when the Falls/apts next door had some work done on their property and it relocated the rats. YES, RATS. We had to endure the horror of having rats eat through the walls behind the dishwasher and the stove. That saga was handled and we haven't had any problems since. The management was nice enough to replace our flooring in the kitchen. While they were at it, they replaced the dining room carpeting with the same flooring as the kitchen. Bathrooms included. One morning I went out to my car to go to work. My rear tires were SLASHED. Yes, slashed. A minor bump in the life of a city girl. Then, as of recent, the repeated water shutoffs. Nothing is more annoying than that. Plus, seeing the bargain priced plumbers outside working day after day trying to put a patch on old city pipes sort of diminishes faith to some degree. Who's to blame? No clue. The dumpster is within sight as you drive in and out. Often times it's jam packed full and is an eyesore. Our neighbors below were playing music loudly for awhile and we were able to come to an agreement with them. That was a plus. Then, the all night dog barking on the balcony was finally solved. The Mosaic management put in extra lights in the dark pathways between buildings. We never felt unsafe at our location on the property. Our gym membership is off-site. Unlike my husband, I've always lived in a large city and grew up in a MUCH more diversified neighborhood where gunshots and robbery was a common event. However, my husband and I feel that it's time to say goodbye to Mosaic when our lease runs out. It's like a friendship that has lived its life and needs to part ways.
