Greentree Apartments

As with any apartment complex, there are pros and cons.
Pros:
Property manager is very concerned with tenant safety and all proper procedures regarding smoke detectors and fire extinguishers are followed upon move-​in.
Property manager has respect for tenant privacy and notice is always given before your apartment is entered by either him or the maintenance staff, and in many cases can be done by appointment so you can be present for the visit.
Rent is cheap for a 1 bedroom in Bloomington, so the price is right.
On-​site laundry room if you need it.
About 2 blocks away from the city bus line, and close to the B-​Line Trail. Within about a 20 minute walking distance from Kroger and half hour walking distance to Downtown.
Pet friendly and reasonable pet fees.
Well maintained and nice to look at grounds in a very green neighborhood.
Mostly quiet neighbors.
You’re allowed to grill out on the patio area outside of your door.
Full-​sized bathtub.
On a back street so not much traffic.
The design of the kitchen and living room being an open space is much nicer than having a tiny, separate kitchen and a tiny, separate living room.
Choice of either Comcast or At&t for internet, phone, and television service.
Cons:
Only 4 washers and dryers used by almost 60 apartments total, so sometimes have to wait for available facilities. It’s better to do your laundry on a weekday/​night rather than the weekend for more likelihood that you don’t have to wait.
Extremely tiny stove, and very little in the way of any kitchen storage.
Windows and doors are so outdated that you have to seal them yourself for Winter, otherwise you’ll end up with high electric bills.
High turnover of maintenance teams leading to inconsistent quality in maintenance.
Dumpster is often overfilled, and it seemed that the trash collection company was coming less frequently than it did when I moved in.
Tenants take advantage of the fact that the policy of cleaning up after their dogs is not enforced by often leaving dog droppings on the ground.
Neighbors down the street are often shouting at each other outside and receiving occasional police visits.
Only one wall-​mounted air conditioner (which is a window air conditioner stuck in the wall), and the design of the windows in the living room does not allow for an additional unit to be used in the living room.
