Spectator Apartments

I recently moved to Spectator from a neighboring apartment complex. With that being said, I experienced the fire alarms, along with other things that I personally thought could've been handled quicker. What I can also say is within the past month there's been an eagerness to get resolved and for that I think it should be rewarded. I terminated my lease early and took advantage of a special that Spectator was having. No place is perfect, but I have faith in their current property manager.

I am writing this as we are currently in a Firewatch which has not been followed multiple times. From August until September 7th there have been 4 fire alarms. This has been an issue for over 2 years but management continuously blames residents. DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!

Constant false fire alarms ALL THE TIME. the valet trash isn’t taken out on time.

Extremely disappointed with my time at Spectator. Last night, the fire alarm went off at 3:30 AM and continued for 5 HOURS. This is a recurring issue and management does absolutely nothing to fix the situation. Please reconsider if you’re thinking about moving here

A Nightmare Dressed like a Day dream. This apartment complex is one of three locate near the scenic Battery and now very famous Truist Park, but Spectator is arguably more known for its infamy in the area. Initially this place was lovely and well maintained but it’s been clear after living here for two years they are just another complex trying to earn a quick buck. Within six months the parking privileges were limited and they had the audacity to make some spots pay to park for $150 a month... while only charging Truist Park visitors $40 to park on the property. They did not give notice of these changes and as a result I got fined a ticket and had to fight it with the parking company. The pool area is always busy with college age people and very loud speakers for hours on end. The mail room is always a mess with packages strewn about without space or care of people’s private belongings. Management is very slow to fix or resolve issues if at all as I am lying here at 5:30 in the morning writing this review on the last day of our lease after the fire alarm has been going off for the PAST TWO AND A HALF HOURS. This issue is the icing on the cake for Spectators laundry list of growing problems. In the past two years this alarm has gone off no less than two dozen times. Sometimes it goes off for twenty minutes other times an hour. Management has made excuse after excise for the issue whether it be winter and the pipes freezing setting off the sensors or the building itself settling and setting off the sensors. Regardless it is an ongoing issue that will likely never be fixed. My main problem with the alarm isn’t the lack of sleep, it’s the fact that now my husband W sound asleep next to me with them still BLARING. What if there was ever an actual fire or issue? What if our lives were in danger and he didn’t wake up due to the fire alarms crying wolf for the past two years?! Spectator is now a danger to it’s own residents as they cannot be sure whether the alarm is a real alarm or one of many false ones. This is thankfully the last time I will have to hear this ugly symphony of fire alarms written to the tune of management excuses while Spectating the end of my contract with this contract. Lee mas
