Terrible and Rude
I went to look at a two bedroom apartment at Appleton Apartments, and I went into the clubhouse to talk to management and I was very disappointed and annoyed. The lady told me they didn't have anything open, and told me nothing would ever be open even when I told her I wouldn't be looking to move for a couple months. Then when I told her about the ad on this website and other websites, all she said was, "Yeah, I need to change that." She also told me that since I'm a college student, they... consider me as 'above the income limit', so I wouldn't be able to live there even if they had anything open. I found her to be very rude and unwelcoming. Thanks for the false advertisement Appleton Apartments!! DO NOT GO HERE.
