The Grove on Southlake Apartamentos

I moved here a few years ago (not listing when to avoid any kickback by management) as I needed a place ASAP and they had a decent place available. It was okay for about 1-2 years, when the hack jobs became apparent. They don't fix things here, they cover it up and keep moving, if you're lucky. It's not a gated community. The gates are always broken. Granted, that is on some of the residents (but that also tells you how some of the residents behave. Not all, but enough). There have been strings... of car break ins. There have been multiple complex wide flooding and massive pipe bursts. My walls are full of water damage and mold due to a few incidents (knock on wood, I have been lucky and they have been minor leaks). They didn't have enough dehumidifiers to clean up the water (if that tells you anything). Also, they didn't care that it was going to mold in the walls. I had to buy air filters to get rid of the mold headaches. You will have bugs. No matter how clean you are. I keep stuff on my floors along the baseboards to keep them away. The neighbors are noisy. The ceilings creek really bad. The outside walls are paper thin. They hold heat but you can hear everything said due to the thin windows and poor sealings. Poor "renovations" and work done all around. Save yourself the trouble if you can. Definitely not worth the price, but unfortunately this seems to be pretty normal overall (the entire description) for the Atlanta area. Lee mas

I saw the previous reviews & what I can say is, there have been great improvements. I’ve moved here Oct.26 2022 & haven’t had any issues. the community is great as well as the staffs. I can put in a maintenance request & they come out the next day. They even call me to let me know my request has been completed. I would highly recommend. 10/10

I am trying to save you a headache and potentially your health. My unit has such a mold and soot problem it’s disgusting. Majority of my clothing, items and furniture are covered in dark soot & mold. Poor ventilation in the unit caused an overgrowth in bacteria that even my plants inside were dying from mold growth. When I informed the leasing office about it, they said I can just clean it. They have huge trash compactors in the front of the community filled with trash that they do not empty or... remove. I can not wait to leave this place! Totally overpriced for underwhelming amenities and potential health hazard. Lee mas

Toya is amazinggggg. =} Beyond professional and very informative. Thank you again

I moved here about a week ago and I really love the layout of the apartment. The assistant manager Kevin and another guy named O'Bryan is a pretty cool. They were very helpful during the leasing process. I'm not so sure about the female that is working in the office though. She had an attitude because I didn't want to sign a paper requesting that I add additional money to my rent for some kind of feed the hungry program. I asked her what did this have to do with my lease and she said that it's... just something that the complex participate in and that she has never had anyone get upset about signing it. I told her that I didn't have an attitude but I came to sign a lease and a lease only. The day that I moved in I encountered a group of about 5 male teens having a very loud and serious argument among each other about breaking into apartments and stealing. One teen even made the comment that he steals. Upon seeing and hearing that I immediately began to regret signing the lease earlier that day. After about four days of living here I came home and found a letter in my door from the leasing office stating that there was a break-in a few days prior and that tenants are responsible for there own property. Also, I was told that cable and internet was included in the rent but Comcast said that the complex on offered basic cable. Needless to say, I was lied to during the lease signing about the internet. I had to purchase my own internet and was forced to pay for cable that I don't want. This apartment is supposed to be an upgrade from the last apartment that I had here in Morrow but now I'm not so sure about that. When this lease is up next year I plan to move. Gave one star because I like the apartment layout. Lee mas
