The Coronado is a TERRIBLE place to live at. At a first glance, it looks like a wonderful place to live. Once you actually live there, you get familiar with the negative side of living at the Coronado. I lived there for four years in a one bedroom apartment. I paid $1050 a month in rent. The apartments seem nice at first, but the staff there is not so pleasant to work with! \r
1. I was in my apartment when my heater broke in the middle of winter. I understood and they said they would fix it. It took over a month to get the heater fixed in my apartment! There was a draft in my apartment of cold air. It was 50 degrees in my apartment and it was ~35 degrees outside. Space heaters didn’t help the situation. I ended up staying at a friend’s apartment, because my apartment was uncomfortable to live in. So when replacing my heater, they decided to STEAL my favorite beach towel and stuff it down the exhaust hole in the floor to keep gases from getting into the apartment. They could have provided their own cloth or towel, but no they decided to use MINE without asking! Once they finally installed the new heating unit, they kept my towel!!! THEY WENT INTO MY APARTMENT AND STOLE MY PROPERTY!!!\r
2. After having lived at the Coronado for four years, I knew the apartment needed a deep cleaning before I moved out. I had established with the management office, Front Door, that I must be present for any inspections and any future work that is to be done in my apartment! The Coronado changed management to Peak Campus Management. This new management company decided to not allow the residents to be present during the final move out inspections. How convenient!! My family friends and I spent a WHOLE DAY deep cleaning the apartment. After going through several bottles of cleaning products, magic erasers, we decided to patch any holes in the wall with spackle and even purchased new drip pans for the oven. It was the cleanest that I have ever seen the apartment! I finally get a list of deductions from my deposit; they said there was an $85 cleaning charge. I am furious. Why should I even have bothered cleaning the apartment at all?? \r
I would not recommend this apartment complex to anyone!! Not only can you not trust them around your property; you can’t trust them to not nickel and dime you for all of your money when it comes time to leaving. It was just so convenient for them to switch move out inspection policies just days before the majority of the people in the complex are due to move out!!!\r
