the kitchens and bathrooms are so tired- tiles coming up, they are not kept up well at all. in between tenants they "say" that they clean the carpets- i think they just vacuum- and they paint- but the kitchen had lost of dust and bathroom had major grime- soapscum, mildew in the shower, tiles missing on the floor, and the tub is peeling. in the 2 bedrooms, the smaller bedroom doesn't have a phone or internet hookup, which is a pain in the butt for roommates. but worst of all, i get BUGS- ALL THE TIME- the nastiest things you've ever seen, too. Every night i come home fearing what has laid eggs that day in my apartment- i get centipedes that run so fast when they realize you see them, they're really hard to kill. millipedes that are always on the ceilings, waterbugs in the sink, spiders of all sorts, ALL the time- especially in my bedroom, which backs up to the woods, as most of the buildings there do. yeah sure, homes, apartments, they all get bugs, but i kill at least one a day, and recently due to the humidity, more than 3 or 4 a day- its nasty. they lay eggs, i'm starting to notice cobwebs, and i found a spiders nest on my stairs. i hate it there so much. i've only been there for 10 months and i can't wait to move- its disgusting. if you have allergies, DEFINITLY not the place for you- they never clean the air filters, so there is always so much dust, pollen, etc. I really can't tell you how awful it is.
the only pluses i can give it is that security is around 24-7, and they'll help you out with anything- setting up maintenance work, walking you to your car. the parking is eh- if i come home after 10pm, i have to drive around. theres a lot behind my building, but its often full. during the snowstorms this winter, i couldn't even go home for 3 days, because there was no where to park- they didn't plow ANY spots, just the road, and only big enough to drive. no street parking, no lot parking. it was awful. and i slipped and fell twice because they didn't salt the walks. maintenance is very speedy, they'll fix it quick, on time, and they're curteous.
when i walk into my vestibule, which leads to six apartments, there are cobwebs, spiders, and it smells awful. i put one of those air wizard things out there, but it died quickly. my neighbors wake me up at 6am, even though there's a quiet rule from 10pm to 8am. their kids are loud- WAY too many families at this place, and its entirely too small for families in the 2 bedrooms. but the bug situation is just really awful- i have to get my place exterminated every month, but it really doesn't help- they crawl in thru the door, which doesn't close all the way, or the windows, which, if the glass is left open, they can crawl thru the big gaps between the screen and the window frame- the screen is on the inside, which is so asonine, and not all the windows open anyway. GOD i can't wait to move. This is the 3rd apartment I've lived in, and I've never had even remotely close to the kinds of problems i have here.
