Living here was one of the worst housing experiences I've had. My roommates and I ended up having…read moreto move out due to an ongoing roach infestation that the management team repeatedly failed to take seriously. We spent over $100 out of pocket sealing drains, cracks, and vents, and had pest control come out multiple times, but nothing changed.
The roaches--Turkestan roaches, which live in sewer drains--were coming from the property itself. Pest control even showed us the nests on-site. We had to pack up our entire apartment so they could deep spray, only to see more roaches the next day.
What made the situation worse was how unhelpful and unprofessional the assistant manager Valissa was. When we brought a parent in to advocate with us, she brushed off our concerns, saying, "That's apartment living." She admitted to living with roaches before and even told us she was "also from the ghetto," which felt like a racially charged attempt to relate to us just because we're Black. She was rude about even basic concerns. Meanwhile, the front office never answers the phone--we have call logs to prove it. I've called five times in one day with no response, and once, my roommate literally watched Valissa sitting in the lobby eating grapes while the phone rang. She ignored it and then casually offered us some grapes afterward.
To her credit, Sharoy seemed more helpful from my roommate's experience. She offered to pay for our movers and helped us buy supplies, and she said they'd keep our rent the same if we stayed. That was appreciated--but after talking to other residents with the same issue, we realized staying wouldn't solve anything.
We even emailed the VP to ask for some kind of rent adjustment since we were being forced to move out before our lease was up. We weren't even given a chance to speak--we were told flatly that the request was denied and that we still had to pay full rent and return our keys by June 30 or else get charged another month.
This complex had the perfect amount of space and could have been great, but we were pushed out by a roach infestation and a management team that didn't care. It's exhausting and financially draining to have to move again, especially after already packing up once for a deep spray.
Beyond the roaches, maintenance is slow. I lived here nearly a year and my oven and bathroom lights were never fixed. One time, a worker came to fix the tub, left tools in the tub, scraped the paint, and even left a shoe print on my bed.
If someone posts about roaches at this complex, believe them. And if management reads this--do better. Hire responsive staff, treat tenants with respect, and stop gaslighting residents about major pest issues. If u can help it stay out of apartment 212
