Bellarmine Hall - *USF STUDENT LIVING* Apartments

plan on having friends or family come over, expect them to have their car towed. I’ve had numerous friends have their car towed and were charged up to $375. Also, the amount of times they cut the internet off is absolutely ridiculous. There were so many nights I was stressing over submitting homework on time because the internet was so slow and down so often. Residents were also promised cable in all of the bedrooms and we didn’t get that until the last 2-3 weeks before moving out. Management and staff feel as if they can enter your apartment at any time which is really weird and the walls are incredibly thin so you can literally hear everyone around you. My roommate and I kept the place incredibly clean yet there were still so many bugs in our unit and not to mention the dead cockroaches we would always see in the hall. Please save your money and look somewhere else. This place bribes people with gift cards to write good reviews so don’t be fooled by the good ratings. This place is awful and I would never recommend them to anybody!

(approximately $50 per car if I recall correctly). I later learned that towing kickbacks are ILLEGAL in Florida! Fortunately, the conversation was captured on my dash camera, and I have been thinking about reporting Bellarmine Hall for taking advantage of students and residents with their illegal towing schemes. And if you ever have a problem there…even a seemingly harmless concern; put it in writing (e-mail, fax, etc.) because these people are beyond liars. They are makers and lovers of LIES. Plus, many of the reviews on this site that are high-ranking are by people who worked at Bellarmine Hall or the Catholic Church that owns Bellarmine Hall. For example: Alyssa, Marcos, Mason, Ricki, and Summer, all work or used to work there. I do not believe their reviews on this site are unbiased! You can’t have the waiter spitting in your water and then giving the restaurant good reviews. Oh….and the washing machines FLOOD (that’s when they are not destroying your clothes). Please don’t buy anything nice that you hope will last awhile. I had to outsource a lot of my laundry while living there. The Catholic Church, USF Catholic Student Union, and Aspen Height Apartments should be BETTER to their residents. My experience is that these people only claim to be Christ-like but are NOT!
