As for this part, I mentioned that the food crumbs and bugs were present in my room WHEN I MOVED IN. There are no food crumbs in the room now; it is actually cleaner than when I first moved in.

I agee that Solutions is infamous for withholding thousands of dollars of deposit. There are some other decent apartments within walking distances of AUC. The Cote de Azur and Tradewinds are pretty good. I know several people living there who has fewer electricity, water or internet problems than the dorm, and they have very nice landlords who don't withhold deposits and fix problems soon.

Also, these are not common problem to the whole island. My boyfriend lives on the French side, and he rarely has any problem with internet, water or electricity. After all, he is just 5 minutes away from school.
