Living here sucks. My fiancé and I are pregnant and wanted a place to call our own when we moved here. Living upstairs at my parent's house in a 10x10 room and sharing a bathroom with my 17 year old brother was better than living here. Bugs EVERYWHERE. I vacuum and clean bathrooms and everything 1-2x a week so the bugs are not anything to do with us. I'm considering cancelling our lease and getting out of here before the baby arrives because I don't want a child living in this nasty place. The
...only thing stopping me from cancelling the lease is moving when I'm 8 months pregnant. The staff is rude, they act like they want to "help" but deep down they don't give a crap about anyone here. Maintenance is SLOW to get to you, and when they do, 99.9% of the time they don't do it right. It is a vicious cycle. I've paid $125 less for an apartment in Creve Coeur and if maintenance wasn't to you in 24 hours or less, they started taking money off of your rent because they actually cared about the customer and their happiness. They have an exterminator that comes out every Tuesday. Everyone that lives here can put their name on a list to be sprayed. We have had our townhouse sprayed 5 times since January, whatever the dude is spraying is not working. I have a feeling he's spraying water. So we've had to invest $50 on top of everything else we pay for here to spray for our own bugs. It seems to working, so I'll keep my fiancé doing that once a week while I stay away for 4 hours because I'm pregnant and can't breathe in the chemicals. The laundry rooms are a joke. They cost too much and are disgusting. We have resorted to driving all the way to Valley Park because we found a laundry facility there that has new machines and costs 1/2 the price. Yes, it's a 40 minute round trip drive, but that drive is better than using the laundry rooms here. The only plus to these apartments is the way they look. When you are driving 15 miles/hour down the street, trust me, it looks nice. That was a main factor in us moving here. But after living here 6 months...total disappointment. I've talked to many other neighbors in the complex that live in everything from a 3 bedroom townhouse to a one bedroom apartment, and across the board everyone except one mom is dissatisfied with multiple things and won't be renewing their lease. The mom I mentioned is only staying here because she doesn't want to move her child to another school district.
