Speaking for Parkview apartments -- One of the worst apartments I have lived in, but one of the better managements I have seen. The apartment is very old, wooden floors creak and squeak all the time. To put it briefly, I felt like I was living in a huge
speaker box. The most annoying thing was that the wooden material has a mood of its own, and it begins to "pop" making a loud, annoying, banging noise (may be due to the weather). I lived in a studio apt (311) and that's where I experienced it. It was so loud that my neighbor loving downstairs thought it was me and he began to retaliate with his own noise. It was a total pain to live in this apartment. The management, for formality sake, conducted "noise tests" and really made a joke out of it. They indirectly told me that I was hearing noises in my head and/or that I was the sensitive one. Anyway, if you love a peaceful atmosphere, you just want to stay away from these rickety apartments, totally!
