I've been at Chetwood Circle for a couple years now and was referring a friend to Padonia Apts when…read moreI noticed all of the negative comments. Configured I would chime in, which I normally don't do either negatively or positively. Before moving in owned a house and sold it to temporarily live in an apt until another home is purchased. Don't like apartments but living here has somewhat changed my mind. Neighborhood is clean and crime free from what I noticed. The maintenance people have been very responsive to any repairs I've had. They fix issue which has only been a couple and leave a note saying they were there, which was a nice gesture. Whenever I have to go to management office (not very often) they have been very kind and responsive. Never have problem with parking or vandalism. Rates are competitive with similar properties. Convenient to highways. And shopping and even PA line. Cons- it's an apartment, which isn't Padonia fault. It's not a remolded unit but still nice and clean. I would recommend getting a renovated unit, which are very nice and if I'm going to be here another year or more I am going to switch. Truly has been a pleasure and with all the windows and lighting in apartment I love it! Hope this helps anyone looking. Good luck!

You should probably look elsewhere. Here is a break down review…read more There are essentially no lights in the apartment. There is a light in the kitchen, den, hallway, walk-in closet, and bathroom. There is no light in the living room or bedroom. I guess that is on me for not checking to see that there were lights in the apartment before moving in? The kitchen has minimal storage and the storage it does have is questionable. Two cabinets above the fridge do not open. The storage above the sink is lacking structure and caves in the middle. Things will break. Under the sink is just an open space. It is unsettling because there's at least one mouse in the apartment. I do not want to store things under the sink out of fear that the mouse will get into it. The bathroom light is attached to the fan which is super loud and does not vent. I have to shower with the door wide open in order to vent the bathroom. The reason the bathroom needs to be vented is because the paint they used for the bathroom has an oil in it that leaks when exposed to heat. Any time hot water or steam is used in the bathroom, the ceiling leaks a yellow oil. This oil drips on the ground, down the walls, and onto the sink. In order to make the bathroom somewhat "clean" I have to clean the ceiling twice a week. After about two months of living there, the tile started peeling and chipping like paint. The lack of ventilation also causes mold to grow above where the "tile" ends and wall begins. The drain is rusted and there's no drain cover, just a circular disk to place over the drain if you want to take a bath. The floor of the tub takes on a black color if you don't clean it weekly. The toilet paper holder is across from the toilet and is nearly impossible to reach. I had to buy my own holder so I can actually reach. Everything about the bathroom is stressful. The light cover in the den is so low that I, a 5'4" human, have bumped my head on it. It shattered within the first month of me living there. I can only assume they did that knowing everyone would break it and they could fine us for it. Honestly, that is a smart move on their part. There is a mouse living there. I have spotted it multiple times throughout my time here. It only comes out at night and no traps work. I submitted a maintenance request for it a few weeks after I moved in. They sent pest control to come. I didn't receive a letter to lock up my dog, so the man couldn't come in. I had to wait another week for them to come back because pest control only comes on Wednesdays. I provided the main office with the number for my dog walker so she could know when to come because I didn't want to leave my dog in her crate for 10 hours. The dog walker came and then put my dog in the bedroom so she was out of the way for pest control. I came home to my dog terrified, my bed peed on, and everything on my dresser now on the floor. That was 100% a me problem which I was fine with as long as there was no more mouse. But pest control didn't do anything! They said they did not see any activity (which makes sense because it only comes out at night) and they put down traps. They said they didn't spray anything because I have a pet that roams. But I had already put down traps. So, my dog freaked out and peed on my bed for absolutely nothing. I got married while living here and asked to add my husband to the lease. I figured it would just be adding his name to it. They wanted $500 for me to add him even though literally nothing else was changing. When I paid $500, they were upset because I did it online and not by a certified check. There was a notice taped to my neighbor's mailbox that said they are taking him to court for failure to pay rent. That was such a disrespectful way to go about it. That is a private matter and just shows how much they value money over all else. Most dog owners don't pick up after their dog. They put the nicest people who care a lot in the leasing office because it is impossible to get mad at them. But the company itself is terrible. The design and functionality of the apartment is atrocious.
