Review for Paddock Club Tallahassee Apartments

I moved in to the Paddock Club and expected it to be a great place since it is in a nice part of town and wasn't cheap. I was sorely disappointed.

Drawers fall apart when you open them due to cheap construction. While that may not be a big deal, it leads in to further problems. The apartment was built nearly twenty years ago, so all of the air conditioning units are failing now. Ours failed in April, and we have been without air conditioning for nearly two months.

On top of that, the a/c failed because a pipe was blocked and flooded over the a/c unit, and into our kitchen and living room. We had to wade through three inches of water to get in to our apartment or kitchen.

You would think that would be an emergency, but it took them two weeks to even try to fix the issue. They replaced the outside a/c unit and left it at that, even though our apartment kept flooding. There is now black mold throughout the kitchen and living room, and spreading through the walls and up the shared a/c ducts that run through this half of the building. They haven't even bothered pulling out the molded baseboards or drywall or trying to clean it.

They replaced the main a/c unit in the wall to try to stop the flooding after several more phone calls, and due to cheap contracting, incorrectly wired the new a/c unit and forgot to close the drain valve, causing it to flood water over the new a/c unit, breaking it after two days.

We called and explained that we didn't have a/c yet again, and they said they would have the part in the following week. It is now three weeks later and we still do not have a/c and are bounced around between the manager and maintenance on when they will get around to fixing it.

It gets over 100 degrees in June here, so unless you like living in a mold infested sauna I suggest you find a different place to live. If you are a tropical insect that feasts on mold, then this will be an ideal place to hatch your brood.

P.S The gates never work, and they had to pass out flyers warning people to lock their doors over a rash of break-ins.
