Do not rent from Diamond J! I was completely in love with my apartment at the Picadilly when I first saw it. At first glance the building is incredibly charming. It's a turn of the century apartment building right off of South Temple and 500 east. Hardwood floors, tiled bathroom and kitchen, high ceilings and a decent size. It lost it's charm really quick. The building has roaches. MAD ROACHES. Like I opened up a cupboard our first night there and 25-50 scurried away from me. The landlord was prompt in spraying the place, but through out our lease we would see them hiding in dark corners. The summer was the worst. You could see them in huge mounds on the front and sides of the building at night. Makes me shutter thinking about it. Worse than the roaches, the building is full of drug users. Seriously crazy people in this building, crazy people who invite more crazy people over to hang out. I threw a mattress cover into the dumpster once and 10 minutes later a neighbor knocked on my door trying to sell it to me. Another time some guy stopped me in the hall and asked if he could borrow $10 because "the bitch across the hall from you won't front me". There were a handful of really cool people who lived in the building and we all kind of laughed nervously with each other about all the crazies. The police were called to the building on a regular basis, but I never saw the management take any sort of eviction action. My lease ended the end of February and I moved out promptly. The apartment was left in immaculate condition and the manager Brian advised me that I would receive my deposit back within 30 days at my new address. It has now been over 2 months and I've yet to receive it. Not even an itemized list of deductions taken from my deposit. Phone calls aren't being returned and my emails have been ignored. I finally got a hold of Brian earlier this week by calling from a friend's phone and his reply was "You haven't got that yet? You need to call the main office." *CLICK* I've drafted a letter giving them 7 days to refund the deposit before I take it to small claims. Stupid that it even has to come this far. Cute apartment, awful neighbors and a shady management company. read more
