A tenant in a basement apartment called to let the manager know that the upstairs tenants were constantly inviting over her boyfriend. The manager asked if the boyfriend had moved in, or if he was spending the night. Which the tenant explained it was during the day, every day! After explaining to the basement tenant that in most situations having your boyfriend over isn’t a violation of the lease. The tenant then explained that it wasn’t the fact that the boyfriend was over, it was the fact that when he was over, they would proceed to VERY loudly “enjoy” themselves, and that while he didn’t have a problem with the two expressing their love for each other, the fact that her bedroom happened to be over the main living area in his apartment and that he could hear EVERYTHING. All it took was one phone call from the manager to let her know she should “keep the noise down” and the mid-day enjoyment quieted down immediately!
