We lived at Uptown Canton for 7 years. We moved because rent was being raised for the 7th time. When I asked to have the apartment to get an upgrade like the new apartments my rent money paid for, they absolutely refused. We had to tape the kitchen cupboards so they would not peel also the both bathrooms had to be taped to stop peeling. The floors in the kitchen are the same linoleum from the early 2000's; also the counters and appliances which were installed in the early 2000's. They actually charged me $20.00 for the drip pans on the stove when we moved out. They can be bought all 4 for 10 dollars at Walmart. They never changed the drip pans in the 7 years when doing general maintenance. Carpet was 7 years old they only cleaned twice and I had to request upon signing lease 3 and 5. I also had to beg for a new refrigerator to replace the early 2000's one that was leaking. Paid for good furnace filters since daughter has asthma and the cheap ones they install were not good for her breathing. I took a vacation day and paid for the heat which had to be turned up and the electricity for space heaters they placed under every sink to keep the frozen pipes we had this past February from breaking. I did not deduct that from my rent. Parking is an issue and has been for years. We paid for two covered parking spaces and had to go the the office more times than I can count because people would park in our spaces. Asked management to paint "RESERVED PARKING" on the cover. Again they refused, but added the $50 per month onto my rent without fail. I could not refuse to pay for spots we could not use. We paid our rent every month on time, did not call them every time a light bulb went out, we did not complain when the loudest upstairs resident moved in, were good residents. I am so disappointed in the new staff they have. It's really sad that Uptown Canton treats good resident so poorly.
