Avondale Station Apartments

There’s a reason for why their rent is cheap. Their furnace system barely works, and it’s obnoxiously loud. I could never get rid of the draft in the apartment during winter, and it’s worse since my apartment was on the ground level. As someone before me said, the walls are also pretty thin, and you’ll just be in the know of whatever your neighbors are doing. What bugs me the most is the deposit return process. The leasing office miscalculated the amount they owed me and my roommate, and we had to call them a number of times to get the rest of the money. And they weren’t even apologetic at all which made me write this review. The only positive side of staying there was the maintenance staff! They were very nice and caring people. But I do regret staying here.

Don’t move in here. I was attracted by the cheap rent and size of the apartments and was able to blow it off when little things went wrong, BUT– I just had to go a few months without sleep because management let 7 people live below me. They were running a Chinese restaurant out of that apartment and kept me up until 2 or 3 am most days (I had to get up at 6 am on weekdays, it sucked). They didn’t care when I went to ask them to quiet down, and disregarded the letter that the manager, Tina, sent. I give her credit for sending the letter, but the tenants didn’t care because they were leaving anyway.
AND they stayed longer than Tina told me they would, which may have been out of her hands but STILL caused me to lose sleep another week. Imagine trying to go to work on 3 hours of sleep every day for 2 weeks. Walking zombie. And what do I get for the distress this caused? A letter saying that I have to pay a $ 450 fee (not deposit, fee. i’ll never see that money again) for the cats that I’ve been catsitting for a few months, even though I’m only going to be here until December. Completely unreasonable, especially considering that there isn’t carpet here or anything that a cat could ruin. Bottom line– I remained flexible through the noisy neighbor/​no sleep ordeal but they were not able to be flexible with me whatsoever, not even for an inch. I can’t wait to get out of this hellhole.
PS The water pressure sucks, the blinds are the cheapest they could find and they break with normal use, the AC doesn’t really work, the paint is peeling. The walls are obviously paper thin, I could hear the guy downstairs snoring… I could go on.

Please don’t be fooled by price or size– both are nice. However, do you like mold? This apartment is covered in it as well as neighbors apartments. Defunct vehicles? Yup, got those too. Greg and Vaughn are awesome, but unfortunately some issues are out of their control for fixing. When I went in tossing my lease my ear was bent by an office staff member talking crap about tenants. Should’ve ran then…
