    ***Update. Was 1 minute from getting a boot in my car this morning. Went to front office to get a parking pass, as instructed, and was given another VISITORS PASS! Wtf! This place is ghetto as hell. Do yourself a favor and don't move here, if you can help it. Which i know you can because there are plenty of apartment complexes in the area. 2 stars is now 1 because my time is continuously wasted.*** Only giving 2 stars because I needed a 2 month lease, they were able to accommodate and the unit was clean when i moved in. However, The customer service sucks, from the leasing office manger to the security desk staff. I had to call and show up to the leasing office, the day before i was due to move in, before the manager sent the necessary documents for move in. You pay for parking, it's included in rent, but it if you move in on the weekends the you have to pay via a pay to park website, after 12 am. Why wouldn't you just give me a visitors pass until Monday? Lots of trash and flies outside of entrance. The building set up is not that great, as far as moving goes. So check to see where your unit would be, in comparison to where where parking garage access is. I'm only writing this review because I'm moving to the far side of the complex on the top floor, by myself. I've been making multiple trips back and forth carrying what i could, so i decided to go to the front desk and ask if they had a wagon or dolly that i could use. Security asked for my ID, which i didn't have because my purse is in my room, because I'm moving. I understand the policy but he was there when i came to get my keys & He knows my apartment is far from the front desk. He then asked for my cell phone, as collateral, which I said no to because no you won't keep my phone. This why i have time for this review. So now I'm taking one more trip from the car to my room and I'll return with my ID

    I am going to GSU. The room was supposed to be ready for move-in on Wednesday 8/18 and was told it was not ready. I went to Westmar on Thursday 8/19 and was surprised by the condition of the apartment and my room. I attached the video that was taken today. Obviously I have not stayed in Westmar yet (the room is not ready nor being cleaned yet), so I talked to leasing members that I can't stay in Westmar because the place is not ready per stipulated move in date (8/18), and the room condition made me very uncomfortable to live there. However the leasing members were unwilling to provide full refund. Wish they were more willing to work things out. As a student, now am I stuck. Again, I have not move in and I am looking for full refund.

    westmar "student" lofts is nothing short of a polished piece of crap in my 5 months living here. i think it would be appropriate expense wise if you weren't paying almost $900 for the very bare minimum and unfortunately sometimes not even that. on the surface westmar seems like a fun, social, clean, and safe place for students to live, but it is very far from this. 1. As seen in the images below there is always trash everywhere. Not just piled up at the trash chute making you run from the elevator to your door from the intense funky & unsettling smell. It is also on sidewalks, in the bushes, parking garage, and basically anywhere imaginable! this is a glorified trash dump by the looks of it at times! 2. The appeal for some is that wow only students are allowed to live here seems safer right? the security even seems pretty tight around westmar when you first sign your lease, however, anyone can live here if they are willing to deal with all the issues that come with it. Even 30-40 yr old people walking around the halls! student living i think not... & if you think this is a safe environment because of security and the front desk you are highly mistaken. in my short time here someone fell victim to gun violence and not a single tenant was informed of this tragedy. not only did a firearm go off in the building but in previous months there was also a stabbing. Way to go westmar! All we received was a text about an "incident" in the lobby! At this point i don't even feel safe here! 3. Maintenance and building up keep is a joke! From personal experience my garbage disposal was clogged & overflowing. It took maintenance 5 days & 4 calls from each of my roommates to get someone to fix a sink! we couldn't cook or clean for 5 whole days. This is only the beginning. Along with this, our door has stopped working completely 4 times. once nobody was answering so i called westmar & told them it was important that i got into my apartment soon! they came the next day and one night they even suggested i sleep in my car if nobody was answering!! Sleep in my car after i pay this unreasonable price for housing! So the 24hr maintenance isn't followed through with and completely a lie expect them to come 2-4 days after an issue! 4. parking! the parking garage is a money grabbing fee lot that preys on young college kids l! beware of where & who you park in the westmar garage. the very first night i moved in i was booted twice after nobody thoroughly explained the rules of the parking garage. If booted it is a $70 fee & i can tell you they are getting there money!! they boot day and night for what I have no clue! 5. amenities are a joke as well! what you pay for you will not be able to use during COVID with no price reduction! the gym is currently closed along with the mold that inhabits it. Also the student study rooms are closed! During this uneasy and cautious time i understand the closing of our amenities, however, we are still paying for them in our rent which is highly and utterly unreasonable. WiFi! If you need reliable and fast WiFi connection Westmar is not for you! Weekly wifi issues cause for failed zoom meetings, lagging classes, and constantly loading netflix. You cannot rely on anything Westmar assures you will have when signing a lease! 6. keys and doors. You almost have to pray one of the exterior doors open with your keys since they only work half the time. they apparently fixed them because before there were no locks on any doors except the main door, which i saw as a huge safety concern! they apparently "fixed" this by putting locks on every exterior door, however, they don't work at all & leave you in unreasonable circumstances constantly locked out! 6. Elevators never work unless it the main elevator that reaches the lobby. So you are forced to walk the stairwell, which I have no issue with if it wasn't for the constant animal waste that you may step in going up and down them! As pictured... again westmar is nasty. I could really go on and on about the unlivable features of Westmar, but really if you have absolutely no standards, low expectations, a strong stomach, loads of patiences, and $900 to waste on living in this dim lit 4x4 smelly box Westmar is the "student" housing for you! All jokes aside, do not trust the pictures or promises westmar present to you. it is false advertising at best! i highly recommend living somewhere cleaner & safer! get the most out of your money! I will not be renewing my lease & advising everyone who ask to find a better living situation since westmar is clearly not looking out for its residents! EDIT: westmar replied to this saying to call. i have emailed & called the number along with my mom & we have not heard from them... just saying. work with someone who will work for you not for your money.

    IF YOU VALUE YOUR SAFETY and well-being, especially if you are a female, DO NOT MOVE HERE!…read more The gates in the parking garage move slow enough for several cars to follow in behind one person. There are no cameras anywhere but the lobby, and the parking garage and hallways wreak of weed. When I and several other residents complained to BRETT about these issues, he replied that the "same can be said for several apartments in Atlanta." Who hired this guy?! He routinely displays a total lack of empathy for literally any and ALL issues concerning residents. This past Sunday (7/15), A MAN FORCED HIMSELF INTO MY SISTER'S APARTMENT, demanded to use her phone, forced himself into her bedroom, and finally left only after her dog scared him off. After notifying the police, we contacted the leasing office. Brett displayed zero concern for our situation, refused to notify other residents of the CRIME that took place, or even acknowledge that the incident in question was considered a crime. Soon after, I found out through the few people I know in the building that THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO 2 OTHER FEMALE RESIDENTS IN THE BUILDING ON THE SAME DAY. All 3 victims gave identical descriptions of the suspect. Still, BRETT AND ELLE'S MANAGEMENT REFUSE TO NOTIFY RESIDENTS OR IMPROVE SECURITY, because "only 2" residents filed police reports. Long story short, any benefits one might enjoy from living at Elle come with a steep price, and that price is your safety. Management, especially Brett, are incompetent and come across patronizing to residents. DO NOT MOVE HERE!!! Side note: Elle has lost hundreds of dollars worth of my packages. This has happened to me enough times to where I no longer have packages delivered here. Instead of helping, Brett immediately told me "we're not liable." The issues here are endless. EDIT: Elle notified residents of "a man knocking on residents doors" only after several residents complained about management's inaction online. In the email they fail to mention that this MAN FORCED HIMSELF INTO MY SISTER'S APARTMENT AND BEDROOM. (And other resident's apartments on multiple floors) This is NOT an accurate report of what transpired and further demonstrates the management's incompetence.

Right from the start I got what I wanted - a huge patio, quiet side of the building, tons of storage, and a floor plan I knew I would enjoy. The leasing staff is accommodating, friendly, and professional. I utilize the biz center, pool, gym, and have had some great parties and screenings in the rec room. They also show their appreciation of us/tenants by hosting events often. And the location cannot be beat!

We would definitely recommend this apartment building.

Perennial Properties needs to replace this parking vendor with a more ethical company. If a property owner contracts with a booting vendor, there should be some recourse for correcting errors and making refunds.
