Review for The Landmark At Barker Cypress Apartments

When we first were told where we would be living, we were told that the apartment was brand new. Unfortunately, this was not the case as there were stains on the walls and carpet. We were also told that the building they were building next to it was probably going to be some store, and that it wouldn't be a problem in regards to sound. BIG LIE!

The apartment looks pretty decent to the naked eye, but if you look closer you will see problems. The apartment itself seems to be built by some of the cheapest materials known to man. There are cracks in the foundation and uneven surfaces/corners in the kitchen. The apartment itself seemed unfinished when we moved in, but there were stains everywhere. Seemed pretty weird.

When we moved in there was problems with our Air Conditioning. The bedroom does not ventilate as well as the rest of the apartment, so if you have a computer and TV, forget about it! It is seriously 10 degrees warmer in the bedroom than the rest of the apartment. They told us there was no problem at all.

Beware of any complex near Building 13. The business next door makes this complex unbearable. It is a landscaping company where every morning 6AM sharp you hear engines running, trucks/fork lifts backing up, and just loud noise. MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, THERE IS A FAULTY FIRE ALARM THAT GOES OFF AND STAYS ON FOR HOURS. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING ABOUT THE LENGTH OF TIME. IT IS A CONSTANT SHRIEK! ON TOP OF THAT THEY HAVE THIS EQUIPMENT THAT MAKES AN ANNOYING SOUND THAT IS ALWAYS IN USE.

Parking can be a problem at times, but for the most part it is decent. The apartments are not that well lit at night, and could be very dangerous in the future.

They also seem to have a problem with management, as this main lady can be pretty rude at time. It's a different lady than when we originally moved in, and definitely not as nice.

There is also a mix of people who live in the apartments, from your pot smokers to your parents. A lot of young twenty party goers as well if that is not your thing. The pool is always packed with parents and their kids, and it is so small.

Granted they are pretty spacious apartments and look nice to the naked eye, but these apartments are packed with serious noise and shoddy carpentry.
