San Montego

We lived in this community for 3 years. It was a great place to live at the beginning, but in 2009, San Montego has become an old Condo in particular the constructions and the apartments amenities...They tried to improve the apartments but compared with what you can find all around, it is not worth the price you have to pay. The last 2 months the AC got so old that the air was blowing hot without cooling down... the maintenance couldn't fix it correctly although they came almost every week to try to fix it...at the end, it was not fixed and we had to pay 2 times 600$ eletricity bill per month because the AC was running non stop! Also, at the end we didn't feel safe anymore because the outdoor gate was always broken and remained open all day long and sometimes nights, in particular during the week ends ! I agree also with a previous review about the way you can hear your neighbors. Yes the grounds, the pool, (...knowing that the sauna never worked..), the Yoga classes and the appearances are nice, but , I wouldn't recommend a friend to live in a noisy, unsafe and getting old community. Pros: landscape, grounds, pool, free classes Cons: getting old,...safety, noise and apartment's ametities more

Moved into a recently remodeled apartment, thinking I would have new higher quality features, as advertised. WRONG. Most of the new features are no of high quality. Cheap ceiling fans, alarm system is not working, lighting is aweful. They repainted the walls, but they painted around the appliances, verses moving the appliances and painting the walls properly. The apartment had not been properly cleaned. There was tons of cat hair under the refrigerator, dishwasher, washer/dryer unit, and behind the toilets. ( which they might have noticed earlier, if they painted the walls properly.) The grout on the tile floor is dirty and black from something, I am not sure what. But with a lot of elbow grease and a little sweat, it has cleaned up. ( My sweat) The apartment in general is nice, but it hasn't been well maintained, and the recent remodeling is fair at best. Pros: Convenient location to local shops and parks Cons: Not well maintained, fair/poor remodeling more
