Careless building management and paper thin walls/ceilings
I hear my upstairs neighbors stomp until 1:30 AM every weeknight. After contacting the unit and building management, the problem only got worse. Building management has been contacted numerous times about the issue and nothing has changed. All they care about is getting their rent payments. Find somewhere else to live!

Disgusting
My room was gross. Chips and stains on the walls. Terrible odor for me around the entire building. The hall ways are dark and even then there’s chips in the paint. My floor was gross as well. Also not impressed with the staff, not only do they not update you on anything but they’re that fake nice that I hate. I was here temporarily for the summer and I’m so glad I’m moving to Union in the fall. What a dump.

Very poor management ruins a nice facility
Took close to 3 weeks to fix a broken dryer. Manager said she put in a work order but maintenance did not come for several weeks.
Cable TV lost half its channels 5 times over the course of the spring semester.
Subleasing/re-letting policies forced me to move out the day before finals started. They require 5 business days between residence to clean the unit, and although the new resident and myself agreed cleaning was not necessary, they refused to be flexible. The new resident had to move... out of her dorm the Saturday after finals which meant I had to move out before finals in order for her to be able to move in on time. Extremely frustrating.
Management did not communicate to me sufficiently how the financing would work for the re-letting process. When I called later on upset at the fact that they hadn't told me some details about it (which was a major inconvenience given me and the new resident had already exchanged money to coordinate the re-let), they told me I had never asked - even though I had asked multiple times in the office if there was anything else I should know or be aware of.
Elevators constantly broke down.
Had a security issue with a person entering my apartment and passing out. When I asked the staff to check security footage they never got back to me.
Overall extremely poor management.
