Canyon View Apartments

I will first start off with the good because it will take the least amount of time.
1. The façade is nice. In the middle of the complex is a grass area that has a walking path. (But people just let their dogs out the door and let them run around off leash and unsupervised so you have to deal with dog shit and keeping unfriendly dogs away from your kids)
2. The water heaters are large capacity, we have yet to run out of hot water for shower/​bath.
3. The layout of the 3 bedroom is nice. I like the way it looks/​feels.
Now, hold onto your butts, this will take a while!
We have been here for less than a month and I can’t wait for the contact to be up! This unit was filthy… I mean seriously gross! We were told several times that it would look like a brand new apartment after the «cleaning lady» worked on it! I noticed a lot of paint chipping off the walls and said oh okay so the walls will be patched and painted too then? She seemed perplexed, like as if that isn’t a normal thing that an apartment complex does for a new tenant. She told me «No, we don’t paint the doors or walls.» I was shocked with how crappy they looked so I said «Oh? Okay, but they will be at least cleaned right?» «Oh yea! Everything will be completely clean.»
So we had to wait for almost 2 weeks for this «cleaning lady» and «carpet cleaner» to get their job done. Finally we get the call to come sign the papers and pick up the keys the next day! This place somehow looked worse then when we did the walk through! The only things that were clean? The stove/​oven and the mirrors… THAT’S IT!!! I was confused as hell so we went back to the office to find out WTF happened and naturally they were gone for the day! So we were stuck, nothing at all we could do! I am still pissed that I had to not only move our belongings into a disgusting apartment but that I had to clean everything before I could put anything away! I was up until 6am cleaning just the kitchen so that I could finally put food away! There was food literally dripping from the racks in the pantry also food dripping from the bottom of the cabinets! Food on the ceiling, walls and floors! I found someone’s pubic hair in the damn refrigerator!
I can just picture the nasty ass standing there with the door open wide, scratching his junk while contemplating what to eat… Yuck!!! I don’t know how it’s possible but the dish washer is so dirty inside… Not only am I not going to clean it but I am not going to use it! I’d rather hand wash! The bathrooms were just as bad if not worse than the kitchen! «I» had to clean someone else’s piss off the toilets so my children could use the restroom! There was blood on the bathroom door! BLOOD!!! WTFH?! The bathtub in the hall is missing chunks and the floor is warped, it feels like you’re gonna fall through! There are burn holes, food stains and possibly old toothpaste in the carpet! The pad to the carpet is so worn my heels hurt just from walking!
On the screen door there is food ground into it, crayon drawings and either burn holes or is just so old it’s falling apart! The vertical and horizontal blinds in the living/​dining room were absolutely caked in crap! The smell of cigarettes was so strong I could smell it from the kitchen! I pulled those nicotine stained nasty smelling things down and threw them outside! And when we turned in the check list paper the only thing the female had to say was «Well I know I cleaned that one set of blinds in the dining room because I sprayed them with simple green!» Yea… you forgot the other side of them… oh, as well as THE REST OF THE APARTMENT!!! And the manager, denied that the people were smoking inside… really… burn holes in the carpet and nicotine stains? It took a little over a week to get a new set of blinds dropped off to us. You know what? I’m curious what the deposit actually covers!
After less than a week of living here and all the shit we have already had to deal with we were trying to enjoy ourselves and have fun on SUNDAY at NOON mind you and the door bell rings. My husband answers and this cross armed jerk off from down stairs almost steps into my apartment gets up close to my husband and says in a real douchey voice «can you keep them from stomping?! Its really loud downstairs okay?!» Then just walks away! No «Hi I live below you guys and I know you just moved in and these are crappily built apartments but if you could possibly try and not be so hard when you step, it would be appreciated» You know, some kind of respect! Nope, he actually tried to physically intimidate us! We were being as quiet as we possibly could while trying to enjoy life. And to have this asshat be such a dick right off the bat?! Nope, not gonna fly. A week later at 3pm my daughter’s were playing in their room and dropped a small bucket of toys and then the dumb ass actually started pounding on his ceiling! Are you serious?! We can’t accidentally drop something?!
DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!
