| - Please, save yourself the agony and do NOT move here. I've been nothing but stressed since I've moved in.
Pros:
*Decent sized space (but not worth the price)
*Convenient location
...and that's essentially it.
Cons:
*Infested with roaches. I started seeing roaches the night I moved in. They are the worst to get rid of and they refuse to have the whole complex inspected. I personally sprayed, I set up traps, I had them spray, I fogged my place three times, and finally got them to fog my place after much resistance and a call to the health department. I'm still killing and finding roaches even after all of these treatments. I started sleeping with the lights on because I was so afraid of stepping on one if I got up in the middle of the night.
*My closet smells musty/mildew-y and so does the air when the AC comes on. Within a week all of my clothes and towels smelled musty and its terrible. I bought two order eliminators for my closet and that barely helped. I had to buy FOUR plug-in air fresheners for my bedroom/living room which helped a little, but I know it's just covering up the smell.
*Maintenance requests take weeks and there's a serious lack of communication. When you move in, you have to inspect the place, report any damages, request maintenance if needed, etc., which I expected. Majority of complexes do that. I requested a new sink faucet for the bathroom because the old one was eroded. I waited over a month for the sink parts to come in, was told it came in, waited a week for it to be installed, and they said "well there wasn't a leak but we replaced it anyways." I never said anything about a leak.
*There's only two garbage bins for the entire complex so it's constantly overflowing. If you get within 15 feet of it, it absolutely reeks.
*Utilities aren't included so while the rent is
decent-ish, I'm paying at least another $150 for water, sewer, trash, and APS. My water has gone up significantly since I moved in. It used to be $30-$40 for my water and now it's $85. There's absolutely no way I use that much water in a month considering I live by myself. So either their meter is off or they're ripping me off.
*They don't give out gate codes. You either get a key card or remote (which costs extra) so if you have guests over after the gate closes, it's a huge pain in the ass to get them inside.
*The staff in the front office stop caring about you once you sign your lease. When I was given the tour and talking about the terms of my lease, they were very friendly, informative, and seemed generally interested in my well-being. This immediately stopped when I was given my keys. If I ever have a question or concern, they're very short and snotty with me or they immediately "let me have the manager call you back" and don't even bother trying to answer.
Please. Do not move here. I wish I would have listened to the other reviews.
