Stay Away At All Costs

Posted 5 years ago

The apartment I rented for one year with my two roommates in Midtown Tallahassee, FL was the worst year I have had in that town. I was a first year post undergraduate adult looking for an area to rent that was close to the fun parts of town and away from FSU's campus. Our landlord did not care one bit about our living situation in the house. We had problems all year while we stayed there. The tenants before us had hid a husky puppy from Jonathan and it soiled and ripped up the carpets, some baseboards, and wood floor. The house when we moved it did not have repainted walls, replaced or even steam cleaned carpets, the back deck was slick with algae to the point where you could not walk on it, the blinds were broken. It was a mess. Jonathan took care of almost none of it. While living in the house for one year, our AC was out intermittently for 21 days in the month of September. If you're not familiar with Florida in the summer aka September, picture sleeping in a puddle of your own sweat. Our ceiling fans in the back master bedroom and front upstairs bedrooms also ran on the same remote controller so when I turned my lights on at all hours of the day and night it meant my roommate did also and vise versa. This went on for weeks. The largest problem we had was the growing stain on the kitchen ceiling. The master bathroom toilet seal was not installed properly and a water stain grew larger and larger until it was so saturated to the point where it leaked through the ceiling into the right kitchen sink... FROM MY TOILET UPSTAIRS. This took over two months to fix. STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM THIS SLUMLORD IN MIDTOWN TALLAHASSEE.
