Hull Flats

This place really ought to be condemned.

There is ABSOLUTELY NO noise insulation. As a ground floor tenant, I am able to hear EVERYTHING that the apartment directly above me does (TV; cell phones ringing; conversation, including normal everyday conversation as well as arguing and fighting; walking and running; vacuuming; scampering – and barking/yelping – of dogs, which "aren't pets" so they don't fit under the Cat Only policy provided in the lease, but because of federal law, their hands "are"… tied). Not only that, but I am also give the opportunity to hear the toddler TWO floors above me learning how to walk (i.e., stumbling).

In addition to having the "joy" of hearing ALL vertically situated apartments, there is also a bug problem. While I’m not entirely sure what/where they're eating, I have had a STEADY stream of both house centipedes and fruit flies that have found their "home" in my apartment (that, of course, in addition to the various, random, spiders, ants, and what have you) that you would expect to see occasionally in life.

As a final point, this place utilizes electric heat. So while the lease office will, undoubtedly, oversell the point that you’re ONLY responsible for the electricity bill, they will simultaneously undersell the point that basically EVERYTHING runs on electricity. They're doing this to try to hide the enormous electric bill you’re going to end up with during those cold winter months. As a single individual, living in a 1-bdrm and keeping the heat at the minimum as provided in the lease, my electricity bill for a single month has been just under $300. Only after pleading to the electric company––assuming there was some mistake––was informed that, no that actually is fairly common for places which use electric heat. Read More
