When I was looking at apartments, I was blown away by Avalon's amenities. After moving in, I still enjoy the spacious living spaces. I do not care for the lack of storage space, though. As a college student that is constantly traveling back and forth from my hometown, I found that I had nowhere to keep my suitcase in between trips. My other complaint is the management. They were young and acted mostly unprofessional. During my lease, management actually changed. During the change, some policies
...were brutally enforced, whereas they were over-looked before. Not to say that these policies were a bad thing, I think they were necessary; however, this abrupt change blindsided me finically. I moved in with a cat and went to the office at least once a month for about six months offering to pay the pet deposit. Every time, I was told that it was fine and that I didn't have to pay it. After the new management, I get a letter saying that I have a month to pay the pet deposit or risk getting evicted. I think this situation was handled very poorly. In addition to unprofessional management, the maintenance workers were EXTREMELY unprofessional and had a complete lack of respect for people's belongings and privacy. There are too many bad experiences with the maintenance crew to even list in this review. It got to a point where I did not feel safe in my own apartment. Obviously, my biggest complaint is the maintenance crew, everything else is so-so.
Max of 2. The pet fee is $450 for 1 pet and $700 for 2 pets.
