Q: Some of the rides here are quite carnival-ish. However, there are some good ones like "The Borg". The food sucks and is WAY overpriced as is the souvenirs. The park constantly smells like garbage and on a hot summer day when you've been waiting in line for a good hour it's not a pleasant experience to bask in the stench of garbage mingled with the patrons sweat. I would probably tolerate this park much better if I didn't have to smell that. It's great for kids if you don't mind spending all of your time surrounded by other's crying/screaming kids in kiddy-land or in the over-rated water park. Speaking of the water park - why is inevitable that when you finally get up to the top of the slide something breaks? This park always has something breaking mid-ride. There have been tales of people stuck on top of the Drop Zone for hours- not sure how true that is. OPTIONS:

Q: **UPDATE 06/01/2014** I've lived here since June 2012. I'm leaving because the rent went up again, they decreased my student discount, and increased the utilities. Pala Mesa isn't worth it. There's no club house, theater, dog park, basketball court, tennis court, water dispenser, the amenities are basic, nothing extravagant so I'm not sure why they're increasing the price. There haven't been any changes/upgrades with appliances or carpeting in the units just the community cosmetics. There's nothing new here that makes me want to stay and pay more. I have noticed new light covers for the entrance way, but it's looked like this for about 2-3 months and they're still not finished. When I didn't have a light for my apartment entrance they replaced it with the original style, not the new one. The lighting for the community is inconsistent, they told me there's an electrical problem and that it was put on hold at some point but the electrician was going to get it taken care of. The lights were fixed for about a week. The SMS notifications always change. I'm enrolled in rent reminders, movie reminders, package reminders, everything and then I log in to my account and none of its available anymore. It's happened several times. The very least they'll have is a rent reminder but I don't even get that as a text message, just email. They don't have a drop box for rent anymore which has really affected me since my work schedule is inconsistent. The office is closed at 6 so that forces me to go to the bank, deposit my check, wait for the funds to become available in 2 days, and then finally pay my rent. I paid my rent online on the 3rd early in the morning let's say 3am and got a late fee that same day but not until later that morning when the office was open so I'm pretty sure they apply it to the account, it's not automatic. I know when the drop box was there I could just drop off my rent and not get a late fee because the office wasn't open yet. FYI they don't take Visa credit cards! That was another headache. They take MasterCard and Discover, the convenience fee is $29.19. They also take cash/MoneyGram, $3.99 convenience fee. Electronic check is free. I took a look at a model and noticed the countertops don't look the same in the units. Maintenance is inconsistent. My window wouldn't stay open so I had to put in a work order twice until anything was done. I basically got a temporary fix since the part needed isn't available anymore and of course they're not going to fix it until absolutely necessary. He gave me a window lock (I haven't seen these around in years! http://www.amazon.com/Jed-Mart-2-pc-SlidingWindow/dp/B006KM2KDC/ref=lp_517830_1_4?s=hardware&ie=UTF8&qid=1401663822&sr=1-4) I am not sure how often the gym is cleaned but it seems every time I go, there aren't any sanitizing wipes for the equipment, the floors are DIRTY, and the bathrooms aren't kept up and restocked. Just the other day I was at the gym and the restroom was flooded! The locks don't always work on the doors for some reason and they were just replaced. I would just hope someone was at the gym already just in case I couldn't get in since I usually go at night. Yes there is a problem with scorpions in this community. I HATE IT! I love that they have pest control though. There is also a problem with spiders. Cob webs everywhere, especially on my entryway light that I share with my neighbor. They clean it like once every 6 months, but I think they cleaned it recently because I just got a new neighbor. The pool area is nice when it's clean. I was told by an employee they only clean it if there are 2 of them in the office. The hot tub doesn't work a lot of times and the pool furniture should be updated. There is Wi-Fi by the pool, but its hit and miss, very weak. Also the gate doesn't always work either. Don't bother calling 30 minutes prior to close, they will not answer. I am actually trying to call them to talk to someone for clarification for moving out, but I'll probably have to go to them personally. Rachel, the last property manager, was very sweet, welcoming, and genuine. There was a Cuban maintenance man (I forgot his name) that was great at his job, I haven't seen him around but I suppose he quit. I haven't moved out yet but I gave my 30 day notice already. I'll update my review after I move out about the security deposit and walk through. I'm probably going to be moving to a Bridge Property Management community. 7/1/14 Walk through was ok. I wasted money on paint though. I bought the color paint the representative in the office told me I have on my walls. Touched up the paint myself. Stacy told me when I signed my move out papers that I could just buy the paint and give it to them and not get charged for touch up. That story changed during the walk through though. Bottom line: Pala Mesa isn't worth it, Weidner isn't worth it & you don't want to deal with their inconsistency. OPTIONS:

Q: I recently stopped by the AZ Bread Company for a quick lunch while out running errands. I was hoping for a really great salad, but their selection was pretty unimpressive. Instead, I went with the turkey avocado BLT wrap. I had high hopes, but was sorely disappointed. It was super bland and boring, and I think that's tough to accomplish with a BLT. There was way too much turkey, so it totally overpowered the rest of the ingredients, and the avocado didn't seem very fresh. The only redeeming part of the meal was the red potato salad which was actually pretty good. I probably wouldn't come here again. The menu overall seems pretty unoriginal, and the ingredients just weren't very impressive. OPTIONS:
