Just moved out after living here 2 years. 1st & foremost, the staff is amazing. It's everything else that becomes unbearable. It's HEAT OR AC - You don't get both. What's even worse, you are GUARANTEED to have 2 miserable months out of the year - 1 where they haven't turned the heat on yet & it's 60 degrees. The other - they don't turn the AC on until MAY! Notice how it's in the 80's now?-add 10-12 degrees to that & that's the temperature of your apartment (one day it got up to 92°). There's not
...enough parking. Unless you're willing to add $60 a month to park in the garage, you WILL have to park BLOCKS AWAY some evenings (hope there's nothing valuable in your vehicle). Then comes the icing on the uncomfortable cake. Train Horns. The trains roll through the West Bottoms, directly underneath Quality Hill. 100 decibel horns blow every 15-30 minutes, every hour & THROUGH THE ENTIRE NIGHT. If there's more than 1 train, prepare yourself for 3-5 MINUTE HORN GAME, BACK & FORTH. It doesn't matter if no cars are at the crossings (there never are). It's the law. And your SLEEP WILL SUFFER from it. I had to keep music playing & a fan blowing, simply just to cut the impact. It will rock you out of REM sleep immediately. This is coming from a DEEP sleeper. Combine the heat with having to keep your windows open (doesn't help) & you have a deadly combination of frustration & discomfort.
DON'T MOVE HERE. At least until they finish renovating it.
Sincerely & Respectfully,
2 year tenant.
