no ac in gym and pool cannot be used
Have lived here for 4 months. The pool was empty for most of that time and then they waited until 100 degree weather to start repairing it. It still cannot be used. We have to go to another complex to use their pool.
Over the last month, the gym temperature has been between 89 and 101 degrees, averaging 93. The ac has not worked since I've lived here. In the winter, the gym was like a refrigerator, since the heat did not work. Every time I ask about it, management personnel get an annoyed... look on their face and say the same thing "they're working on it." They've been "working on it" for 4 months. Pretty sure they are just leaving it off to save money. Meanwhile, the lobby, right next to the gym is freezing but they won't put a fan in the doorway to blow cool air into the gym.
Gym is always filthy and the machines are not maintained at all.
Some of them are so rusty, corroded and damaged that they cannot be used properly. Which is sad, because it's actually good equipment. They need to be oiled and repaired monthly.
Not to mention that there are always lots of screaming kids running around wildly in the gym without parental supervision.
When I mentioned this to management, the employee said that there was nothing that they could do. Residents do not use a key to open the gym door, they force the door open by putting their foot on the wall and pulling the door until if opens. It has been broken and poorly repaired 4 times in the last 3 months. Kind of suspicious why residents do not have keys. I'm guessing that they are not residents. The gym is more like a playground for children. Just a matter of time until a child gets hurt and Marquis gets sued.
They should give residents a free pass to Planet Fitness until they decide to fix the ac.
I had to spend the first week cleaning and sanitizing the apartment because their employees did such a horrible job.
The computer in the business area rarely works .
So, they are basically stealing rent money from us by promising a gym (which can't be used because it's so extremely hot as to be dangerous to exercise in) and a pool that cannot be used.
wonder if they will reduce our rent to make for the inconvenience...I'm guessing not.

Hello - We are disappointed to hear that your experience has not met expectations and appreciate you taking the time to provide detailed feedback.
Regarding the pool, we understand the extended downtime has been frustrating. The repairs required an... electrical permit and inspection from Wake County, which delayed the process. As of July 8, the permit was approved, and we have reached out to schedule the final inspection. Once completed and approved, the pool will reopen.
The gym HVAC system requires full replacement. The estimate has been approved and submitted, and we are now awaiting vendor availability to proceed with installation. We will continue to keep the community informed as we move forward with this project.
With regard to gym access and door damage, each home is issued a gym key at move-in. We are aware that some individuals have repeatedly forced the door open, resulting in multiple repairs. A community-wide message will be sent to remind residents to pick up a replacement key if needed. Additionally, we have not received a report of the business center computer not functioning; should this occur again, please reach out to us immediately so that we can resolve the issue. Should you have any further concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly. Thank you, Maggie at CWS Customer Care
