Slums
June 8, 2018 - Reseña de Apartments.com
I agree with all other reviews that it is a very secluded area, conveniently located and priced low but that's about all I agree on.
The entire complex is on 1 well for water! The first week we moved in we ran out of water for almost 3 days...thankfully it was in August and we were able to fill buckets at the pool to flush toilets, ETC. The water also regularly goes between smelling like straight chlorine to smelling like sewer and we refused to drink or cook with it.
The walls are paper thin ...
and you can hear EVERYTHING your neighbors are doing and smell everything coming from their apartments (good and bad). My small daughter learned the smell of marijuana from our drug addict neighbor. That's not all the drug activity going on in this complex either, I've witnessed numerous drug deals in front of our building and with the Rodeway Inn and other hotel on Route 28 right down the hill there is a lot of criminal activity. Our neighbors were robbed numerous times and while family was house sitting for us over a weekend someone tried to break into our front window. After hearing our dog the person left without gaining entry but the idiot dropped his wallet outside the window! The police were called and he was taken care of.
Just when you think things couldn't get worse I'm here to tell you that it does...the paint chips and peels frequently from the walls as the units are just caked with layers and layers of cheap paint. The window panes, door entries and bathrooms grow mold as fast as you can clean it because of the wetness in the area. The kitchen counters are made out of sheet linoleum so if you drip water from the sink and it gets in the poorly sealed countertops you will have ripples underneath making your counters uneven. The doors, windows and appliances are extremely old.
They don't shovel or plow in an appropriate timeframe in the winter and we ended up shoveling for our building with neighbors all winter long in order to get to work, they hardly salt to maintain the walkways. Town of Ulster owns the roadway this complex is built around so at least they maintain the roads but Skytop also uses that as an excuse to not do their part of the job. In the summer the pool is great when its actually open! We were here for 2 summers and both times the pool didn't open on time in the spring and there were a lot of days there were no lifeguards available so the pool closed for the day.
