I have lived at the Merritt Station apartments for over 4 years and have been very satisfied with…read morethe location and all the staff. It is a peaceful and quiet place to live. Jackie and Fran were always happy to assist in any way they could, especially regarding any concerns about the maintenance of the grounds, our general safety, and overall concerns. The apartment is spacious and has many amenities that I really enjoy and the location works well since it is right by the Merrit Parkway. I continue to value the time spent here and often recommend it to other friends who have been looking for a new apartment with a lot of amenities already at the location, including a convenience mart, liquor store, pool, gym, pavilion, doggie park, basketball court, ample parking, and a beautifully maintained grounds.

Steve has the right STUFF!! I was initially put off by this curiosity shop because many of the…read moreitems weren't priced. I'm not a fan of asking "how much is this?" each time I see a piece that interests me. But I was quickly won over by the owner's friendly, hospitable and inviting demeanor. He explained that there is so much turnover in inventory, and so much of it, that it's a challenge to price everything quickly. Ok, cool! Doubt alleviated! As we ventured more deeply into this cavern filled with treasures, we discovered lots of cool pieces that struck a chord! The shadow box filled with badges and medals was alluring, and the sports memorabilia piqued my nephew's interest. The furniture was fabulous, many one-of-a-kind pieces that would surely add flair to any décor. There's also a case of figurines and knick knacks that would make cool conversation pieces. Another large display case held teapots, teacups & retro kitchenware. Everything was well appointed with little vignettes hither and thither on every table and shelf. We were quite mesmerized by the place. It was clean, well organized and intriguing. My daughter gathered several copper pots and containers for her collection, as well as an unusual brass unicorn spigot/faucet that was delightful! My niece perused the aisles while my sis-in-law and I spied the jewelry cases! I found some sterling silver & turquoise earrings along with a unique kite brooch of onyx and mother of pearl. Sis found a dainty pearl necklace, a strand of long cultured pearls, & a pretty pair of vintage cameo earrings. I loved Steve's willingness to wheel & deal and he made our day!! The prices didn't put a strain on our purses!! We left this shop chattering about what a fun experience it was to enter this enchanting establishment! I dare you to leave empty handed!

I recently had a very positive experience with Silver City Electric. There were a number of outlets…read morein our kitchen that weren't working properly. Kevin returned my call very promptly when I reached out. Since he was already working in town, he was able to swing by the same day. After explaining my issue, Kevin got to work diagnosing the problem. He found the culprit, a poorly wired outlet, within a matter of minutes. Kevin rewired the outlet correctly, installed a new outlet and ensured it was flush mounted; previously, it had not been. He stayed around for a bit and ensured all the other outlets worked and had the correct voltage. This repair gave us back the functionality of the majority of the outlets in our kitchen. I can't say enough about the level of service Kevin provided. He was timely, professional, personable and clean. He charged a very fair price for the work he did. I highly recommend calling him for electrical work. We plan on utilizing his services in the future.

Kevin is honestly the best electrician I have ever hired. I've only ever hired one other guy, but…read moreI'll tell you what, I don't even remember the name of his business, and I certainly didn't bother to leave him a review. I mean, the other guy was good; he did what I hired him to do. No complaints. But Kevin, damn. Kevin is incredible. I don't know how to explain it. Just hire him for something electricity-related, and you'll see what I'm talking about. The guy is a master. Actually, I think he literally is a Master Electrician. He really knows his wires. Kevin installed six new recessed can lights in a room in my 1860 farm house. Before Kevin's handy work, the room was dark and depressing. No one ever wanted to be in there. You just felt lonely and sad in there. But now, with the new lighting Kevin installed, when you're in that room, you feel like a happy daisy in the middle of a warm, sunny Spring day. But only if the lights are turned on. | Hire Kevin for all your electrical needs. You won't be disappointed.

I have lived in a Carabetta Apartment for 5 years now at the Brookside Gardens complex. I can only…read morespeak for my location, but as I drive around Meriden I see Carabetta Property signs often. I can say, they maintain the property and apartments very well. At my complex, Monday through Friday, EVERY morning I see the maintenance guy walking the property with a pail, picking up any debris, trash along and cigarette butts with checking every hallway. I have only called for maintenance service 5-6 times, but the process was easy and the response is timely. I was charged $25 when I locked myself out of my apartment, while not happy, it is fair. All in all, I can say I am happy and plan to stay here a long time. Pro: Quiet, dumpsters emptied regularly* and the exterior and interior areas are kept very clean. Con: Could use more visitor parking. *This is important to me, I have lived at complexes where the dumpster is not emptied enough. Disgusting when they are overfilled.

I have not had too many problems living here since I moved in. But one thing I have noticed is that…read morethe decent neighbors have all been moving out quickly lately. And the loud and obnoxious neighbors seem to be sticking around and recommending this place to everyone just like them. Because it's starting to feel like I live in a ghetto around here. Inside my apartment is fine. Except for when I can hear huge parties and fights happening at apartments nearby. Or the increasing instances couples screaming at each other and slamming doors. All of that aside the Flats is a good place to live for a couple or if you're a single person who can afford the rent it's nice. Especially since heat, hot water and electric are all included in the rent (which is pricey). Above all this you lace has been good to me and I've never seen or heard of any cockroaches or bedbugs around here. Thank God or I would've moved out immediately! The office staff is also nice and helpful.
