The Monroe Atlanta Apartamentos

I started renting at the Monroe in 2022 and when I first rented I LOVED living here. Rent was decent for the amenities, the part of town, being near Bobby Jones, the leasing office/maintenance staff were great and helpful. It all went downhill from there.

Two members of the staff left, Nate and Jessica (there is another Jessica there now, it is not her obviously). And LeShaun from the maintenance team left as well. Their loss was felt immediately by many renters. The three of them went above... and beyond to make people feel comfortable, have their needs addressed, etc. They how to retain tenants and keep them happy.

Worth mentioning that the pool is great, the gym is small but it has all the neccessities, and the rooftop is cool.

In 2024 I moved out of my unit to a new unit in the property and my rent went up expotentially. (Between 2022 and 2023 it went up by only by about $100). We were paying almost $2600 for a unit less than 1,000 SF. At the time I knew I was getting screwed but let them because my lease was about to end and I didn't have the time to figure out a plan b.

Not even 9 months after signing that new lease in 2024, I broke my lease and moved out. I found a place with the same (if not better amenities) walking distance to my office, for 200 more SQ FT for $300 LESS a month. Then I go on the Monroe website to see what they've listed my old unit for? ALMOST $500 LESS THAN WHAT I PAID FOR IT. All this is to say that there are better places in Atlanta for cheaper. Although if my unit is $500 less then maybe it is worth it for the money LOL.

Last thing I'll say is they love charging all these random fees on top of rent. Pest control, parking is crazy, an amenity fee (my current place doesnt have this as a seperate fee), trash valet (that I never used because the time is so inconveinent) and they don't include that in the price on the site.

Great staff and well maintained facilities. Love living here!

I feel like this place use to be worth it for the money (overall communication, appliances working, maintenance, overall apartment events improvements) and now it feels like a super expensive college apartment with no staff really caring or making efforts to be seen (updates to events 2-3 hours before they start; lack of communication/maintenance struggles since LaShun left). It sucks because a bunch of my neighbors/friends have moved from here due to this. I will still probably renew since my... partner is moving in and we love the location. I have hope it’ll get better.

We moved here from out of state for a government job. Loved the location being minutes from office and within walking distance of shopping, groceries , restaurants and medical services. Love the access to miles of trails in a wooded setting along streams in and around the Bobby Jones Golf complex. Modern, clean and fresh facility that offers covered secure parking, amazing meeting areas, outdoor pool with grilling. Layout provides a quiet and private feeling with easy access to all the... amenities. Added feature of dog park field for fun and play! We love it and proud to call it home!! Lee mas

Moving to Atlanta, I had heard a lot about how dangerous the Buckhead area is, and was actually looking at apartments for rent in other areas. But the building is simply so beautiful and well done and I found a unit with the most gorgeous long, winding balcony I’ve ever seen. I have not felt scared, nor have I heard of any acts of violence or other criminal activity in my apartment complex. The people are kind, polite, and respectful. Most everyone has a dog, so if you like animals, this is... definitely the place to be! It seems like everyone knows each other because we all go out and walk dogs or around the perimeter. It’s close to a lot of great restaurants and shops. Midtown is really close and it’s a quiet and safe community. The leasing officers and managers are also always great. I have loved every single one of them, but I’d like to give a special shout out to Nate. Nate is like the community mascot. He is exceptionally kind, a great listener, funny and easy to talk to you about your questions, concerns and even difficult life situations. They all are. Every single person who works here has been nothing but lovely to me, and I would highly recommend living at The Monroe! You’ll love it. Lee mas
