Mur-Cal Apartments

The apartment layout is fantastic and there is tons of storage, but....

The management company and owners don't waste any money on the upkeep of these apartments. I have lived here for 2 years, and have only had the a/c filter changed 3-4 times. The floor tiles in the bathroom and kitchen and hallway are chipped and coming off. The carpet is indoor/outdoor glued to the floor with no padding. And maintenance is a joke, there isn't any except when they feel like coming. The manager here is friendly but can turn on you in a minute if you have a problem with the property or complain too much. And the biggest problem is the mold in the bathrooms and kitchen. When it rains really hard my carpeting is soaked by my front door. I don't have the means to move and need the rental assistance hence the ONLY reason I still live here. But for those who have never lived here and don't know.... if you can find a place to move other than here do so. If you just have to live here like I do, do it knowing up front what to be aware of. If you move here you get what you see. Don't expect much and if you need repairs you'll have to do them yourself or have someone else do it because you will either not get help through management or if you do get help most likely it is the cheapest repair possible. Most likely you'll wait forever to get it done. I still have things waiting to be repaired since I moved in and they aren't done yet. These would be great apartments if and only if the owners and management took the residence seriously and tried to put in a bit of effort to make these liveable. Believe me the owners wouldn't live here for a week if they were forced too, neither would any of the maintenance or management. Too bad they are letting some really nice layout'ed apartments go to ruin. A great potential going straight down the drain just because no one wants to put in any effort or cares about the people that have to live here. So sad, really.......
