BARKLEY APARTMENTS

I was told my unit would have a clean carpet upon move-in. When I moved in there was animal hair and food in the carpet obviously have not been cleaned.

How in the world does that happen?

Friendly staff but there is constant dumpster divers, at least two homeless camps in the forest and multiple break ins. Other then that the maintenance workers at on top of things

Maintenance and the office staff are very responsive.

We lived here for a year. The staff in office and maintenance always so helpful and nice! They responded really quickly to questions and resolved any issues (just few minor things) really quickly.

Beware, of being seduced into thinking these are well built apartments. Management will tell you that they are only 12 years old, so you might think that the noise level between upper and lower apartments isn't going to be so annoying that you have to have some sort of white noise on all the time for peace. It is annoying, and in general will sound like an elephant is above you. If you have noisy neighbors below you that fight or argue, you will hear it even through the carpeting and floor. The... refrigerator/freezers are terrible. Very small freezer space and if you fill it, you will have problems. Your lease is going to be very long, over 10 pages, and there are many unfair conditions (almost criminal). When the time comes to move out, you will have management bringing "god knows who" into your apartment up to 20 days before you leave with only 24 hour notice, whether you are there or not. If you don't want to be in buildings with pets (thus fleas), they will tell you that there is another building that doesn't allow pets. You might want to rent there: beware they don't tell you that they allow any person who claims a disability to have a pet in that building, so there could still be fleas. They say no smoking is allowed in or near apartments, but they allow smoking on the property, so if smoke bothers you don't plan on having your non-air conditioned apartment windows open during hot summer. After your lease is over if you want to stay on month to month your rent could go up by almost $200/month. They want to move people in and out, thereby making a profit off non-refundable deposits.
