I called ahead to make an appointment and the woman on the phone was nice enough that I didn't think to change my mind about going for a tour. When I get there, I notice that there are no gates to secure residents and there was a Clarkston Police patrol vehicle sitting at the entrance of the complex. I went inside to get the tour started, and the people in administration acted like they had no idea why I was there. It took them about 15 minutes to understand that I was there to tour a 3-bedroom
...apartment. Now, when I called to set up the appointment, the lady told me that they did have 3-bedroom apartments to tour; when I got there, they said they didn't have any 3-bedrooms available for a tour. They finally gave me a key to self-tour a 3-bedroom that they "claimed" was in the middle of renovations. The apartment was in the back of the complex, and I felt very unsafe getting to the unit. The walkway to get to the apartment was dark and it was 2 in the afternoon when I was there. When I walked into apartment, I didn't want to touch anything because it looked so gross; I felt like I was going to find a body in the apartment! There were tools in the apartment but there was no clear sign of any kind renovations taking place. The floors were dirty, the bathrooms were small and dated. And the worst thing of all: there were NO light switches in any bedroom. There were no lighting fixtures or even sockets for the light switches to be installed. The apartment was too far from sunlight for there to be any natural lighting through the windows, nor would I want to open the windows in that complex. I gave up trying to find anything good about that apartment, so I went back to the front to give the key back and leave. When I got to the front, the lady at the front desk asked if I liked it and I very honestly told her no. I wanted to ask how far in renovations they had gotten, but before I could, the lady took the key from me and said bye. I would not recommend this place to anyone who has kids, valuable belongings, or wants to have a strong sense of safety in their community. 0/10
