Maintenance takes forever
On first impressions, the apartments are spacious and comfortable. However, every major appliance will probably break within the first year, and that can take days, if not weeks, to be addressed.
The apartment above ours had a damaged water heater that was leaking into our living room for 2+ weeks. A maintenance worker informed me this was normal because every appliance in the building is a discontinued model bought at highly discounted rates. Replacement parts are no longer manufactured, so... they're stuck trying to find spares on eBay. The only solution they offered us during that time was an industrial fan to dry the carpet.
Prudden Place is one of the less expensive Gillespie properties, so it's clearly not a priority for management.
