Clayton Village Apartments

hands. 2. The Washer/Dryer Situation - Each building has five units. Two buildings share a single basement. Every basement has one washer and one dryer. So, ten units share a single washer/dryer. Generally speaking, I haven't had an issue with waiting. However, there have been times when it has been backed up. Also problematic is the fact that both machines cost $1.75 per load. That's still cheaper than the laundromat but it isn't really cheap. The washer and dryer are both standard residential size which means that if you want to wash a large blanket you still need to make the trek to the laundromat. Pros: 1. Recent remodeled interior - When I first moved in the hallways had a dark, dreary and severely dated wood paneling. Now the hallways are brighter, cleaner and are sporting still-new-looking commercial grade carpet. 2. Storage unit - The storage unit in the basement may not be fancy but it is a lot of space. 3. Maintenance - The property and leasing managers (two people) live on-site. The property manager is an incredibly capable jack of all trades. Snow removal is prompt. Very prompt usually. And the grass is always well kept. Any time we've had an issue it has been resolved very quickly and very efficiently. 4. Convenience - Clayton Village is five minutes away (by car)from the Binghamton University campus. It is immediately across the street from a Catholic Church and immediately next door to the Jewish Community Center (which has a fitness center, pool and a daycare). It is less than five minutes away (by car) from the university plaza which has restaurants. Being located just off of the vestal parkway gives you easy access to the rest of the triple cities, Davis College and all of the shopping in Vestal (Target, Wal-Mart, Barnes and Noble, Lowes etc). 5. Utilities - Heat, hot water and cooking gas are all included in rent. Overall, I have been very happy during my time at Clayton Village.
