The Shay Apartments

Madison Allie Rob & Karla are the best leasing team ever!! They’re always greeting everyone with a smile and happy to chit chat :) The maintenance team is so friendly & are so helpful if you have any issues they’ll do their best to fix it right away!!! The Shay is the best!!

I lived here for two years and only left due to a job relocation. While the ad might not capture all the features, the private pond in front of the building is truly priceless. I enjoyed taking multiple walks daily for a refreshing break. Just a short stroll over the bridge takes you to Centennial Park. These amenities make living at the Shay a pleasure. The exceptional management team, along with the pool, gym, and numerous activities, make it hard to want to leave. Move here, you’ll love it!

People of Nashville and those moving here, do not consider The Shay as a place to live. The safety and security of this building are significantly lacking. After several complaints made over the last almost 2 years only empty promises have been made and it’s gotten to the point where a lady was attacked and robbed in our parking garage. I, along with others are trying to get out of our lease as this is no longer a safe place to live and management has shown little to know effort to make this a... safer place to live. Lee mas

I have lived at the shay for a year and a half without issue until this last summer. There have been continual security problems, ultimately leading to a woman being attacked in the parking garage. Management has been contacted on several occasions, but security has not significantly changed. Until this issue is resolved, I will be looking for alternative housing.

Living here isn't what it seems. Yes, it has awesome amenities and looks great but it's not worth it. I wanted to break my lease within a week but I finished it and I am glad I am gone.

1. Management- If you need something, you CANNOT rely on email or phone call. You have to actually go to them to get things done.

2. Residents- Your neighbors will be the young crowd. I'll gauge at, in university/graduated university or currently Post grad. Basically early 20's to mid 20's. Loud, messy people... , parents still paying for their rent. I get it, it's a business but it takes away from the whole "The Shay" experience. It's a shame. Summers were a drag. Parties late at night, girls and boys screaming and getting drunk. These people are also very messy. I CANNOT EMPHASIZE ENOUGH HOW DIRTY THE RESIDENTS LEAVE THE PLACE.

3. Apartment- THE WALLS AND CEILINGS ARE THIN. You can hear people talking in a normal volume yet hear every single word and every single step. YOU COULD HEAR EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON OUTSIDE. Cars, ambulance, train, and CONSTRUCTION all hours of the day. It's ludicrous how a nice looking complex didn't bother to think about thicker walls or sound proofing.

In summary, I personally didn't think it was worth it to live here. Management was horrible, this resident population is something else, and the apartment reeks. If your parents are still paying for your rent and you love to party at all hours, be loud, leave your trash everywhere, then this is the place for you. Lee mas
