Long Lane Apartments

Convenient to center city, quiet, clean accessible to public transportation and when I have an issue with my unit the management company 5akes care of it immediately.

Nice area BUT for the price and what I experienced NOT WORTH IT. I stayed here for 2 years and it was OKAY in the beginning but my son got really sick and spent days in the emergency room. I was not able to pay rent b/c of the days off of work I spent in the hospital (single mom, no family up north). I thought by explaining my situation to management I'd get understanding and suggestions on anything they can do to help me so that they can get paid. Brenda, the office manager, made it clear they don't accept any outside help from programs (fine) but she suggested that I send my son away since I was having a hard time taking care of him ???? I was disgusted by that comment and thought about reporting her but after hearing how often she spilled my business to other residents, I realized she doesn't know any better. Also, I assumed Steven Lentz more than likely would side with his employee. I never came back to the office again during my time here. I kept everything in writing. When maintenance was necessary, they spent less time fixing the problem and more time "throwing a blanket over it". I had mold and mildew growing in the bathroom ceiling, the tub peeled and turned colors everytime I washed it. Whenever I filled the tub up with solely water (for my at the time 1 year) the water would be a cloudy color which lead me to believe the tub had a coating of some sort that children shouldn't be soaking in. The bathroom ceiling also would have brown kinda of staining from the lead paint they used after the steam from the shower got to the paint. The stove gives off so much heat its UNBELIEVABLE. There is a serious roach and pest problem in the apartments. The washer and dryers in the basement are extremely small. I had to split my son's tiny clothing load into two loads just to wash his clothes. They also do not have a change machine for the laundry and do not provide it. If you have to go out and get change or wash more than a half a load of clothes for $1.50 to wash and a $1.50 to dry then you're better off going to the laundromat. Parking is not solely for the residents at Long Lane Apartments. People that live in the row homes or elsewhere use the parking garage also. I can't tell you how many times my packages have gotten stolen. They have 24 hour surveillance in the lobby. I asked if they can rewind the tape to see who took it and nobody knew how to "go back that far". So much for security right? Let this place be your last your resort. Despite my issues financially, there were other residents who are ahead on payments and still experienced their own issues at Long Lane Apartments.
