The Station Alafaya, orlando-fl

If I could leave -5 stars, I would. My daughter’s apartment was disgusting upon move in and our experience has only continued to be disappointing. There is rarely reliable internet service, and we were eventually told it is not included in the lease\. **Beware if dependable internet is important to you, especially for college students. Garbage is frequently not picked up on time, contributing to bugs and poor cleanliness\. We have also submitted numerous maintenance requests regarding the condition of my daughter’s balcony and other issues. Photos will be attached so prospective residents and parents can see for themselves. The apartments look **nothing like the model** we were shown before signing. Most disappointing has been the lack of help or accountability from management and corporate. **Do your research before signing a lease here! As a parent, I wish we had known then what we know now.

horrible. would rate 0 stars if i could. don’t even waste ur time touring this place. the parking is ridiculous. there are not enough spots and u get unlawfully towed. if u want to bring a guest they can only park on the third floor and the residents all park there and take up the spaces so they don’t have to pay for a parking pass since it’s overpriced, so you can’t have any guests without them being towed. the service is horrible and no one ever answers the phone and you can only talk with a stupid ai bot that is terrible and can’t help with anything. you’re better off living literally anywhere else.

Would give 0 if I could. I originally signed to a 4x4 and completed my lease. I was forced out of that lease and had to take up a 5x5 as The Station could not roommate match me. Rooms were not cleaned upon move in. Refrigerator was full upon move in with moldy food. Cat bowls/food found all over unit and none of the current renters are pet owners. WiFi goes out constantly and currently has been out for a week. During the latest outrage I was told to go to Starbucks to complete homework. AC goes out often too, and Orlando is regularly 90°+. My unit fire alarm got set off and would beep constantly for at least a week and a half after the property screwed up a scheduled maintenance, and proceeded to threaten me with a charge because I “tampered” with it. This accusation was only dropped when the fire department got involved per my request. Again I must stress this was not fixed for a week and a half and we had to deal with constant beeping throughout that entire time. I filed 3 emergency complaints with the fire service provider, as well as a few maintenance requests with The Station, they did not take this seriously. The rooms are nice, but are given the landlord special and the modern appeal drops after a month of living here once you realize how many fundamental flaws the station has. AC filters were not changed a single time I lived here to my knowledge. Pool/golf sim is constantly out of service. Trash compactor is often full to the point of over spilling into the street. NONE OF THIS REVIEW IS HYPERBOLE OR DEFAMATION: I have the receipts. Bottom line, don’t let this review stop you from renting here, if you’re comfortable paying 1000+ for a single bedroom in a 5x5 in which you rarely have the amenities advertised, rent away. My two cents: College Station would be a better rent. Period dot.

Don't sign a lease here. The billing is atrocious. The unit care is poor. They will nickel and dime you, but more like $10-20 add-ons. Examples: Back door came off. Took 5+ days to have *the door put back on*! Had to prop up door with furniture. Billing is willy nilly: utility charges not entered by 1st of the month, so you can't pay all at one time; multiple errors and it has only been 2 months. There are a plethora of extra charges, some which you can opt out of and some that you can't. Even when you opt out, they still bill you. One of the charges you can't opt out of is a $20 PER MONTH charge to receive mail, and even with this, they will REFUSE PACKAGES. The wifi is spotty at best and the unit has evidence of some sort of mold. I have pictures which won't upload. ETA: The response from the owner is disingenuous. How about management reaches out to me? How about they respond to my previous communications?

Eva is truly the best thing about this apartment complex. Her communication, patience, and willingness to explain everything clearly made a very stressful situation much easier. If it weren't for her, I would have lost my mind. I hope management knows how lucky they are to have her. She deserves to be recognized and promoted. Thank you, Eva, for all your hard work and kindness! This 5 stars for you
