Boardwalk at Alafaya Trail Apartments

still and say they’ll put in an order. My roommates and I called the office every month to fix our dryer and it was never fixed. But don’t worry, you’ll definitely get overages every month! My roommates were all seniors and one fall for two months they all went back home and I was hardly there and kept the a/c off cause the winter was cold enough I didn’t need it, and still! 14 dollar overages for everyone! The amenities suck, the “hot tub” is a lukewarm pit that is always full of soggy leaves and half dead bugs. If you ever wanted to feel like Shrek in his swamp, try boardwalk! Also your fridge, pantry, and bedroom closets are horribly small. Some furniture has been replaced recently, some off it looks like goodwill has better stuff. The carpet and “wood” floors are old, stained, and falling apart. The water pressure in the shower is weak and for two months I didn’t have hot water in the shower even though I told them on move in, ended up googling how to fix it myself and bought some tools from Home Depot. Pros: the pool ( not the hot tub ) is kinda nice, close to campus, quiet. Cons: literally everything else!

anyone coming to UCF!

moved in. This is because management hates to look at their own move in inspection sheets. Not only this, most roommates that I have had got overages every month due to the set electric being way too low. Do you have a gaming console or a computer? Be prepared to have an coverage of TEN dollars a month per person. Im sorry if it sounds like I am ranting here, but they just hit me with a move out bill two months after i moved out for items that were on my move in inspection sheet and all they did was claim that it couldn't be helped because it went to collections already. I enjoyed my time here, but it was through veiled glasses. In total over the time that I've lived at this apartment. They have probably overcharged me in the area of 500-600 dollars. Remember folks, cheap is cheap for a reason.

Pool area is terrible, which is why nobody parties there, even though its college housing and that's usually what college kids do. The hot tub was a luke-warm, half-full puddle the last time I went. Apartment lighting is terrible, always dark and depressing, not a good study area, or living area for that matter. Bedroom doors are made of cardboard. I can hear my roommates as if they were in my room. If you move here, buy a box-fan and keep it on max speed to try and block out noise. Get a place up front so you actually have parking. Not worth the $600 a month, even for college housing. I can't wait to move out.

on the stove. The shower rod in my bathroom also broke on me while showering. I called boardwalk multiple times to handle these issues, and my roommate also went in. After 2 days of complaining someone came in and pushed the oven back into place, plugging it in, still without a door, leaving us with a major safety hazard. My shower rod was also still broken and on the floor. My roommate and I went in to speak with someone about the problem, along with another friend of ours in the complex and her oven door was also broken and she moved into a DISGUSTING apartment. When we went in we immediately brought our concerns up to one of the leasing agents, I believe her name was Allison, and she was immensely disrespectful. We made it clear that we were upset that we were being forced to pay $585 for the entire month of August and yet the rooms still weren’t move in ready. I asked to speak with one of the people in charge and she wouldn’t let my friend from a separate apartment in to speak with him as well, just me. He was polite and said they’ve had a lot of maintenance orders but ours would be taken care of. When I went back outside and my friend asked to speak with him Allison said no. My friend asked Allison why her apartment wasn’t move in ready and Allison proceeded to laugh at her. I also asked about the security gates being broken, as we were under the impression that we lived in a gated community, and she just told us “yeah they’re broken” and they’ve been broken for some time. My friend then asked if the amount of work orders/time to have work orders fixed was usual and Allison told her “To be honest I’m not going to answer any more of your questions” and then turned to her computer and proceeded to ignore us and refused to turn to us. I have never been so disrespected by a customer service employee in my life and from reading some other reviews about boardwalk this seems to be the norm.

horrible at matching random roommates though so come with friends!

left Orlando thinking all was said and done. Only to receive a letter 3 months afterwards stating that I was being charged for a months rent because the sublease that THEY found to take my place decided that he/she did not want to live there. This is absolutely ridiculous and I do not understand how this makes any logical sense. Along with this bogus charge, Boardwalk charges you whatever overages they want each month. There's been months when all the roommates are out of the apartment and we still receive overage charges. Do yourself a favor a look elsewhere. There are a ton of great places in the area.
