Poor Management and Maintenance
Reviews highlight the inefficient management and maintenance of the apartment complex. Tenants have difficulty reaching the office, and when they do, their concerns are often ignored or unresolved. Maintenance requests take forever to be addressed, and emergencies are neglected.
Safety Concerns
Residents express concern about the lack of security and safety in the complex. Broken doors, unattended children, and inadequate camera surveillance contribute to a feeling of unease. Incidents of theft, robbery, and assault have occurred, making tenants feel unsafe.
Unclean Environment
The property is often dirty, with trash, dog poop, and even underwear littering the hallways. Despite the presence of a weekly cleaning crew, the area remains filthy. The smell of cigarettes and weed permeates the buildings, making the living environment unpleasant.
Breach of Lease Agreement
Tenants report a lack of communication from management regarding lease renewals, and some have had to reset breakers due to maintenance neglect. The complex fails to provide a secure environment, with broken doors and lack of cameras compromising tenant safety.
