The Americana

Great value for location and price. Owners haven’t updated carpet and wallpaper in years so the common areas are really junky. Management allowed one resident to glue (repeat, glue) kitsch and other junk to the tables in the common lobby and it looks really cheap and not uniform. Really turns off potential new residents.

this whole entire complex is infested with bedbugs. I have spoken to many of the residents that continue to have this problem. When I first went and told rich of the issue, he had told me that he is 100% sure that I brought them in to my place myself. How can anyone be 100% sure of this? He kept mentioning that no other residents had this issue but he was going to be nice and pay for the extermination just this first time but every time after this I will need to pay. I spoke over the phone with the exterminator that Rich hired and we set up the time and date for her to come by. I had asked her to call me an hour before she arrives so that way I could meet her and speak with her in person about the issue. She never called me. I actually ended up coming home from work to meet her since she didn't call and found out that she was already at my place spraying. I thought that this was a little weird. I went inside and saw that she was spraying with what looked like a big can of Raid. She also was not wearing a mask or gloves or any type of protection. I found that very very odd. I asked her what kind of chemicals she was using to kill the bed bugs and she could not give me a straight answer, she just kept describing what it does and how it works. I had her come back a second time which did not rid the issue. I told Rich and he said that I will need to pay for the 3rd treatment. I asked why would I have to pay and he responded that he said that he only pays for the first occurance. I explained to him that this is still the first occurance since the issue was never resolved. Rich and I have been arguing about this for 2 months now and I am still living out of bags which is completely riduculous. I am planning on calling the health department and also told him that I would be going to the news channels to report this. Since I have told him this, he gave me an eviction notice and expects me to leave within 45 days. This is the worst property management that I have ever dealt with and I do not wish this on any future resident. I will be moving out and of course be having to pay for my belongings to be exterminated so that I do not bring the bugs to my next residence. I DO NOT RECOMMEND MOVING IN!!!!
