Management at 36 Hampton Avenue clearly does not care about students. After a power outage, all the meat in my fridge spoiled. As an NSFAS-funded student whose allowance had not yet been paid, this was a serious financial loss. I respectfully asked for compensation and was completely dismissed. Their response? The outage was “not their problem” and we should take our fridges to other houses during outages, which is unrealistic and not something anyone agreed to when signing a lease. Students are paying rent. The least management can do is invest in proper backup solutions and fix ongoing issues like broken doors. The lack of accountability and basic empathy is unacceptable. Prospective tenants should think carefully before moving here.

My experience staying at Hlalakamnandi has been consistently frustrating. There always seems to be a problem, most notably with water and electricity. Initially, there were frequent water outages. After numerous complaints, tears, and endless follow-ups, a borehole was eventually installed. Despite this, residents are still charged astronomical water bills, and this year the so-called “water coverage” charges doubled without any clear or believable explanation. The amounts feel completely made up and are never properly justified. When you raise concerns, management either ignores you or takes an extremely long time to respond—often with an unhelpful or rude attitude. There is little accountability and no sense of urgency when it comes to resolving issues that directly affect tenants’ daily lives. Electricity charges are equally shocking and far higher than what seems reasonable for a residential complex. Overall, I do not recommend this property. To make matters worse, there appears to be a pattern of removing reviews that are not favorable, rather than addressing the real issues residents are raising. Tenants deserve transparency, respect, and fair billing—none of which I have experienced here.
