This was unfortunately my building at the time this was posted. I was told there have been no insect problems when I inquired about renting, and I had no choice but to trust as I was moving from another province to Hamilton to attend McMaster University and couldn't fly back and forth from the West coast to look at buildings.
To date, I have had problems with cockroaches for the past year (apt 216 - 1001 building), even though I keep everything very clean and dry. Several other people on the 2nd floor & one person I know of on the 6th floor have reported cockroaches as well. My apartment AND the whole building have been treated by pest control, my apartment has been treated 4 times alone.
And now, the property management, Avcan Management, wants to raise my rent. My request in writing to them to not raise my rent in lieu of the fact that I am living with cockroaches has been refused.
AVOID CAMELOT TOWERS!!!!!!!
do you have any other places to advise then?
ReplyDeleteDo Not Rent Here! This place is a nightmare! They have pest and building problems. They charge you for parking spots even in an underground that's falling a part. Plus the superintendent (new one) is impossible to deal with.
ReplyDeleteThat goes for 981 too!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely terrible, unsafe and unclean.
ReplyDeleteProblems I encountered living at 981 building:
1. Stolen Bicycle although locked to designated bicycle space in the building's parking lot
2. Stolen Truck Tool box (over 500$ value), No surveillance cameras are placed anywhere in/around the building except the lobby.
3. Mice problem
4. Heater problem
5. Cockroaches and insects everywhere
6. Makes you pay for parking underground and outdoor
7. Property Manager is extremely difficult to deal with
8. Terrible Maintenance
Overall worst experience ever. Avoid at any cost!
