The apartments are kind of whatever because it's just an apartment. In terms of "quality" appliances, the washer and dryer provided are nice, and the stove is nice. If you end up with a whirlpool refrigerator then hopefully the one you get doesn't freeze in the non freezer side, and then eventually not freeze at all on the freezer side. After the 2 or 3 maintenance requests related to dealing with the fridge my wife and I have just kind of been dealing with the fact that the fridge just sucks. I'm sure it can be replaced but at this points it's whatever. Another thing about the apartment that isn't the best is due to the hard wood floors, if your neighbors aren't very considerate or are just natural "stompers" then you will always hear them walking from one end of the apartment to the other. If you get a 2 bed 2 bath, in the master bedroom the door leading to the living room and the door leading to the bathroom, when opened, overlap the same space and is very annoying. If you get an apartment on the west side (side towards the Warren theater/creek) then during spring, summer, and early fall there are a good amount of bugs to deal with since the creek/woods are kind of just right there. Final thing that initially I thought was nice is that there is a trash pickup system. It was nice until I learned that one of the main workers for that company is a somewhat older woman who isn't necessarily the best candidate for the job in the sense that any bag that weighs more than 10 pounds just doesn't get taken. I understand the perspective of if all 12 apartments on your part of the building put out a 10 pound bag each then they can end up taking 120 pounds worth of trash, but that individual also isn't required to attempt to grab every single bag at one time and is more than capable of making a second trip. Whatever the reason is for not making at most 3 trips per section of building I am sure it's valid and reasonable, but as the person living here losing 180 dollars a year to an unreliable trash collector it is annoying. The bare minimum is met in the sense that the staff is quality and the place is a "place to live." I don't think any of the things listed above are necessarily deal breaking or anything, but it is definitely something that is to be considered when deciding where to live and what to deal with. Things that are convenient is that the complex is literally rock throwing distance away from a full walmart and that South BA isn't currently too traffic heavy. If you don't have a pike pass for the turnpike that is also within a rocks throwing distance, then be prepared to drive the 5 miles just to get to Highway 51. read more
