Mallards of Brandywine

WORST APARTMENT EVER! First off I moved in to an apartment with a broken refrigerator that ruined all of my food (it took 4 weeks for them to replace it) and the hot water didn’t work for 10 days. I rented a 2 bedroom on the second floor and was moved out with in a month and half of being there. Some noise is expected when in an apartment from neighbors of course… It’s an apartment, but having such obnoxious neighbors in almost every single building is ridiculous! The asshole that lived under me didn’t have a job, I’m pretty sure he did/​still does drugs and would literally yell on his phone from 6pm — almost 3 AM EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. I mean this guy was screaming at the top of his lungs! I am a full time worker and student so as you can imagine, sleep is very important to me. This happened EVERY NIGHT. I mean it… EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT. I repeatedly told the apartment manager, Sookie, and was time every single time «he’s just having family problems» or «he just got a divorce». Ummmmmm is that your information to share?! And Maybe it was the 1 and a half hours of sleep I was getting every night or one of the hundreds of other things wrong with this place but I DONT GIVE 2 SHITS ABOUT THIS ASSHOLE AND HIS PROBLEMS! I’m paying $ 750 bucks a month for a place that I don’t feel safe at and I CANT SLEEP IN!!!
I then confronted the asshole and politely asked him (at 1 in the morning when I couldn’t take the screaming anymore) to please quiet down because I am a broke, hungry, tiered, college student who has a 14 hour day ahead of them in just 4 short hours (you get the point), only to have him tell me «YOURE LUCKY I DONT JUST COME STAIRS AND INVITE MYSELF IN!» And then slam the door in my face… And continue to scream and somehow even louder than before…
I am a 5’0 100 pound 20 year old and this guy has to be 6 feet and at LEAST 300 pounds of muscle. So yeah… I when to speak to Sookie about this (apartment manager, who btw is as sweet as can be) and was told «you must of caught him on a bad day»… JEIALCJAVSODKAHAOWOCKAOW WHY DID IT EVEN COME TO THE POINT WHEN I HAD TO SAY SOMETHING IN THE FIRST PLACE?! Not to mention the time I was walking my dog and 2 guys I’ve never seen before tried to sneak up behind be to do God knows what until my dogs scared them off.
ALSO the walls are paper thin. Everytime my neighbor next to me used the bathroom or took a shower I could hear the water and EVERYTHING ELSE. There are unsupervised kids running around everywhere, drug dealers, and what looks like prostitutes. Oh not to mention the place is invested with bees, that never gets taken care of. THIS PLACE IS TRASH. Spend the extra money to live somewhere decent!!!

Not sure this place entirely justifies the prices, which are about $ 50 higher than other apartments in Deland. Granted, you get to live a bit outside of town in a nice neighborhood. On the other hand, the apartments are oddly laid-​out (trapezoidal living/​dining rooms) and the walls are pretty thin. I’d go for a second story unit if you won’t want to hear the occasional footsteps above (or your neighbor snoring every night, as was our case). The apartments seem pretty clean and come with a security system. Nine-​month leases are available, and the staff are pretty friendly.
