do not recommend at all!
These apartments are significantly more expensive than many other complexes in the area, yet residents are charged for amenities that are not consistently available. For example, the main entry electrical system was broken, and the volleyball court was closed. Utility costs were another major concern. Electricity and gas bills were noticeably higher than in surrounding neighborhoods, with no clear explanation. In addition, the only internet providers compatible with my unit were Verizon and AT&T, both of which are more expensive than other providers available in nearby areas, leaving residents with limited and costly options. The move-out process was especially frustrating. A significantly reduced portion of my security deposit was returned without clear explanation or proper documentation supporting the deductions. The final inspection was conducted without my presence, meaning there was no independent verification of the reported issues. Although I have video documentation from the time of move-out clearly showing the condition of the unit, this evidence was not acknowledged or considered. Another major issue was lease renewal. When my lease was expiring and I asked about extending it, the management increased my base rent by $700 (asking Total $1980 each month for royal suite 1 bedroom), which effectively felt like pressure to move out rather than an option to renew. What was especially concerning is that the same unit was advertised online at the previous lower rent, making the increase unclear and unjustified. Due to this sudden and excessive increase, extending my lease was not a realistic option. Communication with management team was another disappointment. The tone of emails and conversations often felt condescending and unprofessional, creating the impression that residents were being spoken to as subordinates rather than treated with respect. Overall, considering the high rent, limited access to amenities, unusually high utility costs, restricted and expensive internet options, lack of transparency during lease renewal and move-out, frequent tenant turnover, and poor communication, Club Meridian does not offer good value compared to other apartment complexes in the area. These combined issues ultimately led me to decide to move out.
