Horrible, not a good place to live for those who are not into drugs or living in a building where there are more than 2 drug dealers, after the smell of crack and marijuana kept coming into my room I told the owner and everyone in the management office and they said there was nothing they could do and when I reported it someone from the office told people in the building and 3 times I found water with urine thrown infront of my room door and once again nothing anyone could do. The maintanence man cleans the shower floors with the same mop he uses to clean the bathroom floors inwhich they are the same bathoom floors that are covered with urine around the toilet bowl area. People smoking crack and marijuana in the bathrooms and leaving the remains all over the bathroom, ceilings are falling apart and showers covered in mold. I dealt with it because I was laid off and in school, but as soon as I saved up my money I was gone and at the end of my stay I was owed 160.00 because I paid 1 week ahead of time and when I spoke to Brad who was also incharge of renting the rooms out he said that I was correct and they did owe it to me, but when I spoke to another person incharge he said no because we pay after the stay and that was a lie because for 2 yrs the rule was to pay in advance and since I lost my receipt in my move he said I couldn't get the money they owed me, but what a contradiction. Why is he saying bring in the receipt and you will get your money, but without it I couldn't when he had first said we pay after our stay and yes ofcourse they did have a copy of the receipt in their receipt book, they are theives and liers and it so messed up for the Green Street area in Jp because Jp is an awesome place to live, but this Property and the people who work there deserve to go back to their country and remember what it is like to struggle and be taken advantage of because that it was they are doing to good people who need a room and cheap rent, my warning to all good people who need a reasonable rent situation is to get a room mate and don't bother with Union Green Apartments
