I have lived at Wood Lee Arms for three years now. I have ONLY renewed my lease due to the convenience in location and reasonable rent. There is ALWAYS an issue. Once one problem is fixed, another one emerges. Management is un-attentive and non-responsive. During pre-COVID times the office door is rarely open, and the "be back soon" sign is up 80% of the time, making it nearly impossible to pay rent on time.
Ezra, the maintenance lead, is the only redeeming quality of this place. Since my
...maintenance requests are rarely responded to by management, and I have to submit one at least once a month, I've found it easiest to catch Ezra in the hall and he gets the job done!
Packages
Packages get stolen. They are dumped on the main floor of the lobby. I bought a PO BOX at the post office for $120 a year just to avoid this. It is inconvenient to drive there after work but better for the peace of mind. They purchased a locker system a month ago, and packages are still all over the lobby floor.
Spiders
Spider infestation in my room! I have submitted service requests on 3/10, 6/9, and 8/24 for maintenance to kill the spiders in my room. On a good day, I kill 1-2; on a bad day, I kill 5-6. They have now migrated into the living room from my bedroom. An exterminator has come twice, and the problem remains, yet there is no solution.
Parking lot
The parking lot entrance became destroyed Fall 2019 and remained disheveled for six-plus months!!! Pieces of the concrete spread into the road, and huge holes were missing from it. It was dangerous to drive up.
Trash
About a month ago, trash was not picked up for over two weeks; trash was overflowing out of the bins and surrounding area. Crows and vultures made this their new home.
Light fixtures
Light fixtures are continually going out. The lights in building hallway went out, and it was PITCH BLACK. We couldn't even see our doorknob to unlock our door. They did not replace them for two weeks, even with maintenance requests! When maintenance finally changed the lightbulbs a few months ago, they never put a fixture back over them!
Scent
The majority of the time, the main floor with the leasing office reeks, or the stairwells smell like cigarette smoke, dirty socks, and urine.
DON'T DO IT!!! You'll be happy you didn't!!
