A sad and pathetic building where nothing works properly, run by crooks from Wilson Management and the white-trash janitor that is universally hated by everyone that ever meets him (from the mailman to EVERYONE in the building), he's so incompetent that other tenants are offered discount on their rent if they're willing to clean and maintain the property because he's unable to do his job properly.

You want more' There's plenty more:

- In the last year I had a mouse in my apartment, bedbugs, huge spiders, giant ants, etc. The building's response: We'll call the exterminator and charge you $250! I added pictures for those whom might not believe me.

- Building is about 100 years-old, literally. The monorail runs right in front and rattles the building each time it goes by. The next medium size earthquake will probably bring it down (the '01 quake almost did!). Smells like old, mold, and decay.

- No hot water if your neighbor is using the shower and terrible water pressure the rest of the time, the landlord's response: The pipes are old and the only way to fix the problem is to replace all of them, and that's impossible to do unless you empty the building of tenants and remodel from ground-up. So long story short: you get no water part of the day. Also, the showers are built for midgets and you basically have to get on your knees to get wet.

- The elevator is a super-slow claustrophobic death-trap that loves breaking down on Friday nights and because Wilson Management is unwilling to pay the elevator company their weekend rates, it won't get fixed to Monday the earliest.

- You want heat during the winter' Don't count on it! This old "classic" building still has those old radiators that make lots of clanking noise but barely works! I had to buy electric heaters to survive the winters. You might say that's not a big deal since the utilities are included in the rent, but the catch is that you can only use a certain amount of power at once, meaning that if your heater is on and you turn on the microwave, the fuse is blown and no more electricity in your apartment! It's very charming.

- There's no washer and driers in the units, and the ones in the dungeon/basement barely work. Be sure to bring plenty of quarters.

- Steps on both the front and back door, so if you have any disabilities don't bother coming. They also make moving great fun. Just horrible architecture all around.

- It's a no pets building even for therapy and doctor prescribed pets. I can guess they want to keep the building safe for the mice!

- Area is filled with homeless and drug addicts. You have to lock the garbage so crackheads won't go through it! No worries, when they can't get to your half-eaten pizza they just defecate next to the garbage bin so you can step on it. I added a picture of the daily mess you have to deal with it.

- Super noisy building. From the drunk neighbors doing drugs on the deck, to the screaming homeless in the parking lot next door, to the never ending barrage of trucks in the alley.



I could go on and on about this trashy building. I actually feel sorry for the few nice people that still live there lost with the creeps and drug dealers. Do yourself a favor and pick a better place to live, there are plenty in the area. You might think you found a bargain but there are no bargains in this world, you gonna get what you pay for it! And that's specially the case at the Sheridan Apartments.
