Lakeside Village

I lived here in 2007. The apartments were either being redone or had just been redone and the apartment i moved into had just been finished - - it had new cabinets, fresh carpet, and tile in the kitchen and bathroom. The apartment itself was a little small but I guess about average as apartments go. We had no real patio, because ours backed right up to the sidewalk, and the parking was pretty far from our door plus the parking lots had not been paved in a while....and the mailboxes were in a fairly inconvenient spot, all the way at the front of the complex, and not very close to the office parking...definitely get wet in the rain... the pool was nice, but the fitness center wasn't open when I was there. I never used the laundry facilities but was disappointed that w/d hookups were unavailable for 2 bedrooms. We did have a bit of an insect problem....but I think only because our apartment had just been redone and part of our building was still under construction. The office staff was very nice and helpful and has continued to be (I ended up moving out early and breaking my lease due to family illness, and they were very nice in assisting me and setting up a payment plan to pay for my early termination fees). It was much nicer than a lot of other complexes in St. Petersburg and Clearwater for the price range. As far as the other tenants, I only had complaints about the people above me who moved out before I did, but I was in a fairly private portion of the complex. Pros: affordable, nice apartments, great staff Cons: parking lots, ""landscaping"" more
