    The Pointe At Wyo - A huge hot tub

    The Pointe At Wyo

    (44 reviews)

    Hey apartment searchers. I'm a college student attending school in Laramie, WY and I've lived at…read moreThe Pointe at Wyo since August 2014. As I write this review, it's nearly April 2016 and over the year and eight months that I've lived here I've come to know the place pretty well. I'd like to share what my experience here has been like with you so that you can make an informed choice about where you choose to rent from in Laramie. When I first came to Laramie searching for a place to live, I had never heard of an apartment complex quite like The Pointe. Each apartment is composed of 4 bedrooms, each having its own full bathroom. There is a large kitchen with new stainless steel appliances and a spacious living room including two couches, two end tables, and one coffee table. There is a washer and dryer in each apartment. Each bedroom is furnished with a desk, desk chair, dresser, and night stand. It really is a modern looking and well equipped apartment that comes at a cost that you would be hard pressed to find elsewhere for what you are provided. What's unique about living at The Pointe vs renting with a traditional lease is that your rent remains the same no matter how many people are living in the apartment with you. For example, if you move into a unit that has three people living in it, and they all leave, you are not stuck with paying the rent of their three, now vacant, rooms. Your rent will remain at your signing price throughout the duration of your lease, in my case $535/month for a third floor unit with vaulted ceilings. During my initial tour of The Pointe, about 6 months prior to my move in, I was ooooed and ahhhed by the three hot tubs, firepit, the well equipped gym, and the newness of everything in the apartments. While I am still mostly happy living here, there have been disappointments. First of all, when I finally moved in 6 months after my tour, I was surprised to find the hot tubs lacking a crucial ingredient....water. And they've been like that. For. 20. Months. That's right, I've not once had the opportunity to sit in the hot tubs that I was promised during my tour and I've lived here for nearly 2 years. There has been a recent change in management and much construction has been going on in an attempt to get the hot tubs up and running. I just hope they get it taken care of sooner than later, because that has been a huge let down. Secondly, while The Pointe has since switched internet providers and now has much faster and more reliable internet, the internet was out for a couple of months in 2015. Although the fact that we didn't have internet was frustrating in itself, the tipping point for me was that we were not being communicated with from management. I just wanted to be told the truth. Tell me why I don't have internet and give me an honest timeframe as to when I might be expecting it to return. We were provided a temporary solution of mobile hotspots; however, most residents quickly burned through the allocated data and were again stuck without internet. BUT....management as I mentioned, has definitely changed for the better here at The Pointe. During a recent spring snowstorm, our internet went out. Having had such a negative experience with such situations in the past, I expected nothing different this time. But as I walked down the stairs to get into my car to go to class, I noticed a new sign on the entryway door. It stated that management was aware of the internet situation and was attempting to fix the problem. "Wow" I thought. This is nice, now I know that they know something is wrong and that they are working on a solution. In addition, The Pointe was tweeting live updates about the situation on its Twitter account. So nice to know what was going on as it happened rather than being left in the dark as we were in the past. So things are definitely turning around and really might be the reason that I resign a lease here at the Pointe. If you've lived in Laramie during the summer, you'll know that weather is pretty mild, but can get up into the 80s and so air conditioning is nice to have on those really hot days. Over the last two summers that I've lived here, the air conditioning hasn't worked at all...instead, "freezing up" and so you're better off just using the blinds and opening windows. Now, some of the other perks of living at The Pointe include a shuttle that runs to and from the University of Wyoming so that you do not have to pay for parking on campus, a large theater room that can be fun to hang out in and watch shows with friends, computer labs and study rooms to get homework done in, and a nicely equipped gym. The gym has the basics, a couple of treadmills, a couple of ellipticals (if they are not still broken....kind of cheap equipment but nice to have nonetheless), free weights, a Bowflex machine, jump boxes, and although I've never used it, a tanning booth that is free for tenants to use.

    If you plan or know anyone that is planning on living make sure to tell them not to. This place is…read moreso filthy and disgusting. They will do whatever it takes to take your money from you. And all the management does is lies and is extremely rude. They don't follow what they say and the don't even know what's in there own lease agreement. They say one thing then get caught in a lie and try to change it. They don't take responsibility for there mistakes. The rooms All smell terrible. And they make you fill out a roomate sheet to match with people that fit you and who you are but they don't pair you with them. This please is an extreme waste of money.

    Laramie is a little New Orleans and I'm not an animal house kind of girl…read more.. One of the nicest recreational facilities I've ever been in and a huge stadium (Laramie almost doubles in population during the football games). Yes, it does get below 0 in the winter and boy does that wind blow, but I would rather have winter there than some of the other places I have lived. Free movies on Friday nights in the union and multiple ways to get involved from religious activities to rodeo teams to swing dances on Thursday nights, and big name concerts such as Josh Turner and Brett Eldredge. College town prices in a drinking town. The engineering building is in quite a need of upgrade (feeling more like a dungeon to me), but has great views. One thing I considered before attending here was the small size (which is good if you want more one on one attention with your advisors but bad if your department is a little more clique-y). Another benefit of that was that grad students always got to do some kind of field project or be able to collect their own research. Having the King Air was a huge benefit. It was a tough program, but I'm lucky to have an advisor that didn't give up on me. One thing I didn't appreciate was the greed of the university officials. Here, one of my officemates was not funded for his PhD and my other officemate was not paid for her last semester and had to find an outside job. Meanwhile, they were still bringing in new students to the department and building a shiny new engineering building across the street. While I didn't fully appreciate it while I was there, I find myself missing those open skies and Wyoming sunsets. (And I'm happy to say that I finished grad school debt free because of this university) And P.S., that cowboy logo is everywhere, and I mean EVERYWHERE

    In town for a UW football game. Got a chance to stop into the university bookstore to grab a…read moresweatshirt and we also visited the Geology Museum, which was informative and fun to see. My review also incorporates my liking of War Memorial Stadium and the field house (where we went to tailgate). Wish I had more time to visit the campus but time was limited. Go WYO!
