Bayside Commons

Unless you are desperate don't even consider this residence. Having served my year there I am now free at last and wouldn't want you to make the same mistake I did. The following are examples of tenants' consistently breaking the terms of their lease and nothing is ever done about it: children must play in designated areas only and stay clear of the road and parking areas (not a chance!), toys and personal belongings must be kept inside apartments (no way), balconies to be kept attractive to the eye (take a look!), tenant's should conduct themselves in a manner that will not disturb neighbors peaceful enjoyment of the premises (this only counts on rainy days and winter!). The parking lot sometimes looks like a mechanics convention ignoring the fact that repairs on the premises are not premitted. The complex is regularly visited by the police helecopter (sometimes in the middle of the night) and it is my guess that a large number of tenant's are there thanks to housing schemes.



So what can I tell you that's good? The staff in the office are friendly and do their best. Maintenance issues were always promptly delt with. It's a pity the complex owners don't give their on-site staff more support. Much to my amazement my car was always safe and never vandalized. The inside of my apartment was of acceptable standard and, if I kept my windows closed, general peaceful (maybe because of empty apartments around me?)



I have never writen a review on anything before but feel compelled to do so as I had a less than pleasurable experience at Bayside Commons.
