The Station Alafaya, orlando-fl

You are going to be paying for shit WiFi that is unstable, also unstable power, incompetent staff, and a slow service. Not to mention the sudden changes that they never warn you about that can take a long time. They send inaccurate emails to the whole complex but act like they know nothing about it. The gunshots that they don't tell you about that go off for a week twice a year nearly got me shot by one. My favorite was when we had a roommate who was screaming every night and during the day, saying repulsive sexual stuff so loud that my roommate could hear it through the walls. We had evidence, showed them, and they did nothing at all. They won't tell you any of this. If you think it's worth spending thousands on sending your child here due to schooling, or if you want to live here, spend your thousands elsewhere. This place looks pretty on the outside but its all just looks. I lived here for three years. The last two were a miserable experience. Never expect good or decent customer service here. The maintenance team is the only good part of this place.

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.

okay so the station hasn't had wifi in over a week and for students that would be a PROBLEM and instead of the staff being helpful every single one of them have been absolutely nasty to anyone who calls to find a resolution. The free rent can't be that good for them to be so dismissive towards the students whose parents PAY their bills.. and the lack of urgency and professionalism is alarming especially since they are due to graduate and have no wifi to do so!!!!!

I currently live here, my biggest complaint about the station is the lack of care from management. My apartments AC hasn’t been working properly for weeks, the inside temps are in the high 70s to low 80s, and yet management does not care whatsoever. My roommates and I have requested maintenance on it over 5 times. There is only so much that maintenance can do before management needs to get involved. The maintenance team is great here. I cannot express enough how frustrating the process of talking to anybody with authority is here.

I have lived here for a year and the wifi or power constantly goes out and even when the wifi does work it doesn’t and you can’t use it most of the time. the actual residents are terrible they always party and my roommates and i have gotten our door knocked on at 3 am by random people. I have had issues with my apartment to where i need the emergency maintenance line and every time i call no one ever picks up and the issues never gets resolved that same day. the gate doesn’t work half the time. the rooms are also falling apart, the door trim is missing, the oven light doesn’t work and constantly says it’s on, i have had issues with my toilet, washer, dryer and dishwasher, and the trim outside has nails sticking out of it. I have even put in several maintenance requests for this, and they have never been fixed. One time, my roommates, and I put on the heater as it was cold outside and not even 10 minutes later our apartment was smoking and the smoke alarms were going off and there was a burning smell throughout the whole apartment. now they also charge you for trash if you leave it outside, it’s ridiculous because the trash is all the way on the other side of the apartment complex and half the time people leave their trash outside anyways. The community walking through is trashed most of the time there’s trash on the stairwells of the parking garage and on the sidewalk and there’s dog poop everywhere. i would never live here again and i don’t suggest anyone ever live here.
