I made the mistake of signing an automatically renewable lease, with sixty days notice required if you aren't going to renew. Don't ever do that. Prior to my lease officially renewing, my job transferred me across the state. I explained the circumstances to management. I couldn't give sixty days notice but they didn't care. It was my fault for signing a crappy lease so I want to give others fair warning to read the contract and not do the same.
On the day I moved in to my apartment I had no fridge and a dirty floor. And then when he did show up with an old fridge, the maintenance man wanted the movers that I was paying by the hour to help him move it in.
I had multiple issues with my radiator not working. I lost count of the times maintenance was out to fix it. Each guy who came out swore it was a different issue then the previous guy and then promised he fixed it.
The neighbors were not that bad. The next door neighbor would occasionally have loud fights with her boyfriend. My biggest issue was the smoking outside my apartment.
