Unfortunately we were told many lies just to get us into the apartment. This wasn't the only issue, though... There are constantly kids playing in the parking lot and living anywhere other than the third floor is quite annoying, as you can hear every step the neighbors above you make (maybe we just had overly loud upstairs neighbors, though). We were told many things when we moved in and they all turned out to be false, such as can we store a grill on our balcony (without the tank), can you hear the upstairs neighbors or their toilets flushing (odd, but annoying, and yes you can hear their toilets flush) and is it a quiet place. We were told that it was quiet and that we could store our grill, as well as that we could not hear the neighbors or their toilets flush (we got an odd look, but they still said no).
About three weeks into our lease we were told that we had to get rid of our grill, which was clearly outlined in the lease, we just expected the office staff to not lie to us when we were asking questions.Also, quite a few of our neighbors left trash sitting out by their doors, which is also not allowed according to the lease, yet they did it anyway and sometimes it would sit for days up to a week.
The apartments are also very small and the location is a nightmare. It's located on a very busy street and takes forever to get out of the complex/gas station that it is attached to. I'm also not entirely sure why they are advertised as "luxury apartments", other than the fact that maybe new = luxury. The inside of the apartment was nice, but that's about all I can say that is good about the apartment.
On another note, there is a bar just on the other side of the fence in a strip mall that has a "patio" on the sidewalk and we couldn't keep our windows open when it was nice outside because people would carry on all hours of the evening and night, into early morning (2:00ish).
Unfortunately we were new to the area and had limited time for apartment searching and no knowledge of how busy the location was.
