Hanover Place

You get what you pay for at Hanover Place, and then pay more for things you don’t get. Upon moving in, the bathroom had wood rot in the corner near the shower, and water stains that hadn’t been cleaned in what looked like months. Turns out the shower flooded the bathroom whenever turned on, and required an extra curtain because maintenance was absolutely unhelpful in remedying the problem. The shower and toilet also back flowed sewage into my bathroom on one occasion, and even though the maintenance cleaned the portion that soaked into the carpet, I was left with a wet stain for a few weeks.
The walls are paper thin, and not only did I have to hear my neighbors scream at each other every few nights (they also managed to break their windows onto our shared patio… twice), I could even hear the neighbors two floors above me when they played music. Also managing to let in more noise, the front door had a noticeable gap between the floor that functioned flawlessly in letting in cold air and letting air conditioned air escape.
The carpet, which had been «professionally cleaned» prior to move in, smelled heavily of mildew, yet the staff took no hesitance in charging me the same carpet-​cleaning fee to perform the same service.
All this I could deal with given that I expected terrible quality given Hanover Place’s reputation for the cheap price, but I was more than miffed upon moving out. After having thoroughly attended to the cleaning checklist, and restoring the apartment to a level well above the mess I moved into, I was still charged $ 500 in fees.
Forget about your security deposit. They charged $ 100 for replacing the generic, $ 30 Walmart blinds in the living room (which were absent the first few weeks of my stay, and installed only after persistent pestering of the maintenance department). Another $ 100 for their mildewy carpet cleaning service and replacing drip pans. And then $ 150 each for cleaning the already cleaned kitchen and bathroom. Yes, $ 300 to clean about 80 square feet of space.
Do not consider living here. The apartments are in shabby condition, you’ll have to listen to your neighbors nightly, and you will get charged beyond your security deposit in move-​out fees.
