Wavecrest Gardens Apartamentos

not enforcing its own rules which are in the lease.

wouldn't advise walking to the subway and most people seem to drive in the complex (for good reasons). The beach is ok but there is mostly no swimming in the area. There are cockroaches and water bugs but the exterminator has been pretty good. The apartment itself is nice, it just doesn't make up for the other negatives.

to make sure they maintain a steady stream of the almighty dollar. The numbers of stars of approval I suspect is a garden and false to raise their profile for positive ratings. Trust me in this as a decent self respecting human being who believes people should be considerate of others and business ethics of honesty should be paramount.

issue), there being either a water main issue or pipes freezing so you can expect to wake up to no water, or some nasty yellow/brownish water (my assumption is the color is from the rust of the pipes?). Thirdly, we noticed a small roach here and there when we first moved in, but nothing too out of control or alarming (though I hate the sight of even one, we were able to get the problem under control), however as they began renovating the older apartments in our building, the roaches seem to be looking for a new home and now I am guaranteed to find a roach or three (big, small and in between) in my kitchen at night. And if you’re curious I do keep a very clean house. Fourthly, the parking! Let me start by saying, if you work a typical 9-5 you should be able to find parking on the property with no issue, but in the event that you work nights like myself, the odds of you finding parking after about 8 o’clock on some nights are slim to none. Now what options do you have if you can’t find parking you might ask, well if you choose to park illegally on the premises (i.e. make your own parking spot somewhere) after a few warning stickers on your car window they will have your car towed so that isn’t recommended. You could park on the street but after about 11p good luck. You could pay $110 for a parking lot spot and hope you live in a building close to the lot or else be prepared to walk (that wind coming off the beach in the winter is no joke) or pay $160 for a garage spot which is more convenient also more money. And last but not least of my issues, the walls are paper thin. You can hear pretty much everything through these walls.

EVERYTHING that your neighbors do. This is not a good place to raise a family. Granted, there are plenty of beautiful amenities in the neighborhood and surrounding areas. However, if you were to choose this apartment building simply because of that, you would end up regretting it because of how miserable you would be in this apartment. I have a baby who gets waken up at all sorts of hours because of my neighbors and when I tried to eradicate that issue with white noise music, the police were called to my apartment. I’m really ashamed to say that I live here. The owners really did not care about creating quality apartments for people to actually enjoy living in. I would only recommend leasing one of these apartments for a year and make sure that you have money saved up for when you need to move out. Be wary that they will try to keep your security deposit as well. Some of my coworkers have told me that Wavecrest kept their security deposit because of minor things (scratches on kitchen counters & things of the sort). If you can live somewhere else, I encourage you to do so. Make sure you test the walls... knock on them. If they echo, they are too thin. Good luck!

rent will continue to increase! Wavecrest truly has a long way to go before reaching "luxury"! The upside is the beach across from your apartment

INDOOR PARKING SPACE. ROCKAWAY ONE DOES NOT BILL CORRECTLY FOR PARKING, THEY GIVE YOU 6 MONTHS FREE BUT THE FIRST MONTH IS PRO-RATED BUT YOU ARE BILLED AS IF YOU HAD THE SPACE FOR THE ENTIRE MONTH AND THEY ONLY HAVE TIME WARNER CABLE. I HAD TO FIGHT TO GET A COPY OF MY LEASE AND THAT TOOK TWO MONTHS ALL TO FIND OUT IT WAS SENT BACK AN NO ONE EVER CONTACTED MY ABOUT IT. I HAD TO CALL AND EVEN WHEN I CALLED THEY WERE NASTY. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE AND I AM PLANNING ON MAKING A RUN FOR IT AND NEVER TO RETURN THEY ARE NOT WORTH THE MONEY. YOU CAN FIND BETTER APARTMENTS IN THE AREA OR STAND ALONE APARTMENTS HOUSES. THE CLOSETS ARE TOO SMALL FOR A TWO BEDROOM.
