| - Wow, where do I begin with how INCREDIBLY BAD this leasing company is?! First off, for three years I lived in one of the quads on Clifton Boulevard. The ad they have for this 4 suiter on their website is just lies. It is NOT the perfect location as it is right on the major intersection of W.117th and Clifton Blvd - it is always noisy due to heavy traffic, the alarm always going off at the CVS across the street, and the background train noise. There is always car accidents at the intersection and it is frustrating trying to get out of your driveway to merge onto Clifton Blvd during the morning and evening rush. Now a supermarket is being built at that intersection - it's going to be pure chaos! Speaking of the driveway, it is POT HOLES PARADISE. I'm talking small swimming pool size holes that jacked up our car tires. They refused to fix the potholes and just kept filling it with rocks and dirt - what a joke!
As for the quad structure itself - the building is literally rotting away. My husband once leaned on one of the outside walls and it moved! Like the whole side of the wall moved! Our whole balcony area was rotting away (as well as our neighbors) too and their fix was to just paint the floors and patch some areas - how about fixing the railings so it won't give way if my son leans on it ??!! Speaking of paint - they use the flattest, thinnest, cheapest paint they can possibly find. The whole place was the sickeningly cheap white paint color which stained and smudged easily. Our bathroom window ledge was rotting away since it's right in the shower. So they came out and re-applied a coat of the cheap paint and it chipped off and rotted away AGAIN! The kitchen cabinets and bathroom were extremely depressing and outdated, chipped and just falling apart and oh my god that place stayed DUSTY. It was just impossible to keep clean! I hate when leasing companies use the cheapest paint they can find just so they can charge you for any smudges or stains at move-out (which they can't legally do by the way as it's not considered beyond normal wear and tear). I moved into this place because I needed to move into a new place quickly otherwise there's no way I would've settled here!
Martin is the worse - he will tell you one thing and then turn around and completely tell you a different story. He deliberately withholds information from you and quite frankly I don't think he cares. Look at all the terrible reviews he gets on Google! Also I was told my key deposit would be processed on August 31st. I emailed them on September 11th to see why I haven't received the check yet. They claimed it was mailed on August 31st. Really! It takes almost two weeks to mail a check within the same city?!! When I finally received the check a couple of days later, it was dated for September 12th NOT August 31st which they claimed. Why lie? Just say you forgot, sheesh!
These suites are not "large" as they claim but extremely narrow which makes it near impossible to get furniture in, the floors were awful, crown moldings were all white which just got dusty and dirty by just looking at them, we had no faux fireplace in our unit, all of the balconies are crumbling, the surface lot is full of potholes, and it is located on the absolute noisiest and busiest street in Lakewood! Our kitchen was not updated - THAT IS A TOTAL LIE in their ad! The flooring in the kitchen was cheap, our cabinets were old, chipped and white which just got dirty all the time. Cabinet handles broke off easily over time and the white sink collected hard water stains all the time! In our new apartment, we have brand new beautiful oak cabinets with a stainless steel double sink and updated countertop - no comparison to the outdated mess we had at the Winwood suite.
Needless to say, I am so glad my family is now out of that Winwood place. I will tell you Winwood's rent for this property is really cheap for the area, but you most certainly get what you pay for!
