The master bedrooms are in the center and don't share a wall with neighbors. This helps keep it quiet. - The office staff is wonderful! Sherrie and Lisa are so kind and they always go the extra mile. They try to make the best experiences for residents hosting events, taking care of issues and constantly working to improve the building. If you have any issue, they take it seriously and do their best to handle it quickly. They take the time to get to know the residents and they really care about your experience here. - The maintenance team. Chris and Al are the best! Unlike other places I've lived, they really respect that your apartment is your home. They get to jobs quickly and always ask if there is anything else they can help with. Even if it's just a flickering lightbulb they get to it right away. - You can easily walk to all the best places on Detroit.

If you like dog poop throughout the grass areas, unclean TRASHY neighbors, dirty hallways, unprofessional office staff, garbage overflowing, dogs barking all night long, mice in the walls, unsafe fireplaces, mold, shady business tactics, then you won't mind living in this dump. I highly recommend speaking with the neighbors and looking elsewhere if you're looking for a safe place to call home or a home where you will experience peace and quiet. You can get much better for the price you'll pay. THEY WILL RAISE YOU RENT EXPONENTIALLY EACH YEAR. They are not BBB members, and if you do your research, you'll find some other very honest, compelling reviews. Their rating with BBB, by the way, is just a little over 2 stars.

They are really good about cleaning their amenities which is so nice because I have lived in many apartments growing up and I would never set foot in their pools. But the pool, hot tub and gym at Sturbridge are always cleaned and maintained. Everyone in the office and the maintenance team are all so amazing and helpful. Turn around time for a maintenance request is usually quick and done if not the same day then the very next day.

We were not allowed to tour our apartment until 2 days before our move in date. We have a shared garage unit and as you can see by the picture it's mostly trash. They said that this was a garage, not a storage unit because you have a storage unit included in your apartment. They said this was going to be cleaned up which it wasn't. When me moved into our apartment it wasn't even move in ready. The window is broke and still broke no updates on when they're going to fix it. The flooring and the carpet are both coming apart. We have a 10 month old baby and my boyfriend was almost physically attacked by a lady who literally was having a manic episode. Management did not reach out to us to apologize or let the other tenants know that the crazy lady still lives and is living in our building. Unfortunately, we're stuck here. So let me save you the trouble and run. Way too much money we're spending every month for the amount of issues we're dealing with. Absolutely ridiculous.

Beautiful,…read moresafe neighborhood, unbelievable price and all utilities work great. 9.5/10 would recommend, only loses a point because cabinets are sticking but that should be an easy fix once i make a request. You'll probably be working with a woman named Linda during the application process, she's very easy to talk to and incredibly proactive. Couldn't be happier, the place isn't huge but it's all we need and very comfortable. Long version: my girlfriend and I are a younger couple, she's 26 and i'm about to turn 27. We wanted somewhere safe, cozy and quiet, where we'd be happy for years and someday may even raise a child. Because of this, i had to think about quite a few aspects before moving. 1. Brunswick is in the top 80% safest Ohio cities. Our building comes with a primary front lock, and our apartment has a lock as well. Double security to sleep even better at night. We see school busses dropping off children all the time, and everyone in the community strongly adheres to school speed limits and other subtle but noticeable details compared to other cities i've lived in. 2. The price. Seriously, i thought it was too good to be true. If you made it this far, chances are you might be looking for a verification of authenticity, so here it is. 3. Linda (the primary person you'll be working with during the application process) is fantastic. She responds quick, promptly takes care of any concerns and is overall just a very good person. Left us a gift basket and everything with some genuine thought behind the small gifts. 4. The apartment is the epitome of simplicity. It's small but not too small, very cozy, and above all everything met and exceeded my standards down to the high pressure shower head with numerous settings and blinds that automatically pull down or up without an annoying string. 5. Woodgate Village is located on a side street off a main street, so everything we need is minutes away. Food, gas, you name it. If you're someone who's looking for a peaceful, secure and quiet place to stay, look no further. Update: been living here over four years now and still have no complaints. Got very lucky finding this place during the inflation bubble of apartments and greedy landlords. Whoever owns and operates these apartments must be a genuinely good person interested in providing fair pricing and not gouging every cent like other places. Can't be happier here.

I have lived in Woodgate Village since 2012, and have been very pleased with the property,…read moremanagement, maintenance staff, and the location. I will be moving out in March 2020 because I am moving into a home, otherwise, I would be glad to remain here at Woodgate Village. I will miss living here. For one thing, the property manager (Linda) and the maintenance supervisor (Ed) are a great team who run this complex extremely well. For example, whenever I have had an occasional maintenance issue, the matter has been resolved promptly and professionally. Ed is obviously a skilled & knowledgeable maintenance technician, and is easy to talk with. Likewise, whenever I have had a question about something, I just send an e-mail to Linda, and have typically received a courteous, informative reply later the same day or next morning. It is obvious that Linda and Ed care about managing this property well, and want to keep their tenants happy. Besides that, I like the location. Basically, everything I need is within 2 miles, including grocery stores, restaurants, the gym I belong to, gas stations, car wash, library, post office, the high school which my son attends, etc. Everything is nearby. Also, I have been fortunate to have good neighbors here. Over the years, I have seen a few people come & go, and most everyone has been nice. I've gained some new friends since living here, plus it's very quiet around here, which I love. Woodgate Village is not the kind of place where a bunch of loud, partying kids rent. In fact, those type of tenants would not last very long here. The typical tenants here are either divorced/single adults or young couples starting out in their first place together. And, it's a very quiet place, even on the weekends... no loud music or people yelling at each other, and it's very rare that you see police being called here, etc. This has been a calm, friendly environment to call home. Bottom line: I have been very happy here, and highly recommend it to others.

All pluses. The thing that sells me on 200 West is the staff. If we ever have any questions, they get back to us THAT DAY. If we need maintenance on the apartment, it's almost always done within 24 hours. I can't express enough how great it is to have staff that you're able to get a hold of when you need them. The building is family-owned and I think that makes all the difference in the world.
