I am a resident of Tower at Tropicana and the office staff is very helpful, and now that we have John as our on-site manager it is even better, before he took over this property you felt like you were visiting romper-room when you visited, or called the office, very childish behavior from the old on-site manager L.J. The maintenance staff is quick to respond, very professional and friendly. The grounds, including the pools, spa and fitness building are extremely well kept at all times.
Now for that word “LUXURIOUS” and the words “GOURMET KITCHENS”, the kitchen you see in the model is the only time you will see anything that remotely resembles a “GOURMET KITCHEN” and the last time you see an upper-end appliance will be in the model also. The kitchens in these apartments have never been redone since they were originally installed in 1991 when the apartments were built, except for the chrome wine racks that are located over the dorm sized refrigerators (the heat of the refrigerator is not good for wine). The cabinets are fiberboard with swollen and chipped finishes; sagging fiberboard shelves that are not deep enough for your plates, the cabinet doors have a Formica finish that is scratched and stained, the stoves circa 1991, are covered in scratches which are poorly covered up with spot paint. The countertops are painted-over, as are the counters in the bathrooms, the linoleum in the kitchen and both bathrooms is cut, burned, and stained. The “Newer” appliances that are actually in the apartment you rent are so low-end that they run-up your electric bill and do not work very well. Speaking of bills, that water bill they tell you that you will pay on top of the rent is not only for water, you will be paying for trash and sewer, plus a wonderful little service charge they tack on for the privilege of them over charging you for water, the bill fluctuates from $60.00 to $90.00 a month for water because they use what is called a R.U.B. method to calculate your bill, look up this type of utility billing on the internet. They use a service called Con-Service for the water, sewer, and trash billing; look them up for their reviews also.
The only term that can be used is “bait and switch” when it comes to what the model portrays and what you actually move into. So yes, do a walk through!! But then you will have already terminated your lease at your previous home or apartment, will have paid the non-refundable $120.00 holding fee and the application fees and will have your furniture in a truck waiting to move in. So leasers beware!!! Of the mistakes that I have signed myself into in my lifetime this one is at least bearable in that the staff is excellent, the exterior of the apartment complex is very nice and the floor plan meets my needs.

I have been living at these apartments for almost 2 years and I have not had any major problems. My car has never been broken into. Management only checks our apartment once a year to ensure the appliances are in order. The office sent out letters to their residents warning them about a peeping Tom, but I have never encountered him. The majority of my neighbors are friendly and quiet. The office staff is not as good as they were last year. We use to get monthly letters and updates but now we get nothing at all unless it is a warning. I have had the office make outrageous requests to accommodate whiny neighbors such as taking my dog on a different walking route because it makes another dog bark and that disrupts their neighbors. I declined because it would have been a huge inconvenience to take my dog to the bathroom on the other side of the apartments. The problem was their barking dog, not my walking route. I was a bit angry with the office for not seeing that, and for the fact that they called me once to quiet my dog’s barking because it upset a neighbor of mine.

Car was stolen once, broken into 18 times in 6 months, had to replace locks due to random break ins, have had the peeping tom try to break in while i was standing RIGHT THERE!, peeping tom comes by very frequently knocking over all the plants on the patio. Get an upstairs apt if you live here but you will pay an extra $25 mo. Management busts in your apt 3 times a year claiming to check appliances, vacuum the fireplace, etc. So if you like your privacy DONT MOVE HERE. Looks good from the outside, but everyone i know that lives here has been victimized by burglaries, car theft, robbery at gunpoint, harrassment by managemment. Overpriced but looks good FROM THE OUTSIDE.
