Review for Colonial Terrace Apartments

Where do I begin?!!! I needed a place to move into quick, because i was commuting over 60 miles one way to work each day so I stopped in at colonial terrace to see what they had. When I called the guy I spoke with told me that the rent was 525 per month with a 250 deposit. I filled out the application and the lease agreement still thinking that the rent was 525 per month. Then was told that it was actually 595 per month after I signed the lease. The manager did tell me that they were updating the apartments and the one that he wanted to put me in would not be updated. It has wood panel on the walls and this horribly stained carpet that no matter how many times you deep clean it, it's not going to look any better. And the roaches were so bad that they would smoke my cigarettes. On top of that I asked to be placed on the bottom floor because I have a two year old daughter and he still put me on the second floor. Maintenance sucks big time. My stove stopped working and I told management the day I paid rent he said that they would "send someone up", three weeks went by and nothing, then I found out that the window that in my daughter's room which is at the front of the apartment mind you, window did not lock. I found this out one weekend when my baby was visiting her grandmother and I came home from work one morning to find a man asleep on her bed. (HELLO) I asked management to fix it, another three weeks and nothing, stove still broke and window unsecure as well as the air conditioning unit not working. Because of feeling unsafe in a piece of crap that I am paying 600 bucks a month for I had my boyfriend to move in with me. (he's 6'4 320 pounds) He went to management and pointed out the problems, the stove, garbage disposal, air conditioner, the window in my daughter's room. another 2 weeks went by and nothing was done. So we went to the owner of the complex and I'll be damned if they finally didn't send someone over to fix all the problems, but they still aren't fixed. My stove won't heat properly, my a/c heating unit doesn't work properly, the garbage disposal still leaks, but management says that it's my fault that none of the stuff works.

Parking HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Good luck. I live on the second floor near the center stairs, parking is so horrible that I actually have to park on the other side of the parking complex and walk all the way across to go to my apartment.

Office staff is a sexiest pig that if you are attractive he sexually harasses you until you are totally uncomfortable and resort to waiting until after you noticed his car gone to go pay your rent or you send a male friend to give it to him.

the condition of the unit is like it is stuck in the 1960's. The Noise level is unbearable. On new year's eve the tenants that stay downstairs and two apartments over had a get together and I heard every song they played in my bedroom which is in the back of the apartment. If my downstairs neighbors take a shower I know about it, if they talk too loud I can tell you everything they said and it doesn't help that there are people that live here that do not control their children. If you want to enjoy a quiet day lounging on you coach in you living room, you are bound to get disturbed by loud children running past you door or maybe even knocking on it. I stay to myself and you almost have to get into a physical altercation to get peace in your apartment. Add if you find a parking spot close to where you live you will have to almost choke slam the kids and teenagers, because they seem to want to use you vehicle as patio furniture, a baseball, and home base for tag. The parking spots are so small that the person parking next to you is definitely going to hit you car with their car door. My car has so many scratches and dings because of the this.

No to mention that this place is about a block from the city police department. The Police are constantly called there and will block the entrance. One point over the summer a cop almost hit a kid because he was speeding through the parking lot.

I would't recommend this place if you just wanted to keep your worst enemy's family pet there. I am beyond ecstatic that my lease is up in about 6 weeks. seeing how the manager BUSTER told me that we are not getting the deposit back, I am tearing the shit out that place.

so RUN RUN away!!!!!!
