Barcelo at East Cobb Apartments

This property has left units on site without power for over a week. Tenants paying the expensive rental rates aren't even guaranteed access to consistent power. If you lose power because the property neglected to inspect their own facilities , they will do nothing for you. You will be left to your own devices. The property needs to explain immediately how they allowed paying renters to go without power or air conditioning for the better part of a week, practiced severe neglect , facilutated... tenet's food spoiling due to lack of power and endergerened the lives of tenets by leaving them to manage in an inhospitable unit and refusing to place them in another during a national heatwave. The property has offered no solution other than a "wait and see" approach and has provided no update, support, or even amenities to alleviate being left without power or air conditioning in a heatwave. You may as well be paying to live on the street. Read More

Worst place I have EVER lived. Unresponsive management, roach infestations, and when I moved in they had painted over the roaches and left urine on the toilet seats. My water ran black for two months and no one did anything. I also had a major leak for six months that no one would address, causing me thousands in water bill fees - which they will not reimburse or even respond to my emails. The trash is always overflowing, the nearby Air Force base is extremely loud (including daily 8am wake up... calls that are very disruptive), and the walls are so thin that you can practically hear your neighbors breathing. There was also mold, broken doors, and holes in the walls. Do NOT move here! Read More

This is by far the worst place I’ve ever lived my entire life. The roaches are horrendous. They never send out pest control. They never answer the phones. They never respond to maintenance request. I’ve sent requests in for 4 weeks in a row and the issues still haven’t been resolved. There is no reason I should be paying my hard earned money to be living under these conditions. The grounds are un kept and there’s trash and rodents all over and tons of stray cats. People don’t clean... up after their dogs. The breezeways always smell like pee. The lights in the breezeways have been out for over a week. I can’t see out my peep hole with the darkness and I feel unsafe opening my door early in the morning to leave for work. I don’t under stand how maintenance has the free time to ride around on carts but not fix issues. I cannot wait until my lease is up. I would never rent here again and I don’t recommend anyone be living under these conditions. Read More

I moved from out of state and relied only on the photos they had. First off, no real wood floors, these are wood vinyl stickers on hard concrete. Second, BUGS everywhere. I've seen earwigs, roaches, centipedes, (even tiny lizards), rolly pollies, giant ants, silverfish and boxelder bugs. I've never seen so many bugs in my entire life than I've seen the past few months living here. I'm done with this place, I'm going to move out soon. The kitchen is awful, the drawers don't open property and... there are like hundred layers of paint on the wall in bathrooms and kitchen. The only redeeming factor is that there is space, but after killing thousands of bugs, I just want to move. Read More

Where do I start? This place has had multiple managers in just the last couple of years and it’s all the same. The latest property manager, First Communities, is just as bad if not worse than the previous management. They took over in May and I have been waiting on work orders ever sense. The first month in they had different leasing consultant in the office every other day. The original manager that came in in May is already gone. I’m not sure what happened to her but now there’s a new... manager in her place. If you have any type of maintenance orders needed you have to start over with them again every week and they act like they have amnesia. They spent a lot of time grooming the outside of the apartments. This includes: painting the buildings constantly, planting new flowers, and taking windows and patios out. The inside of the apartments however, are not paid attention to. There are cracks in the walls, mold and leaks from the ceiling, roaches running rampant, and broken appliances from sinks to stoves. In addition to all of this, about twice a month they turn the water off without notice and when you call to ask what is going on they tell you that there is a major leak. That’s very concerning that we’re having weeks that we have to have the water turned off multiple times a month. What that tells me is that these apartments do not need renovating they need to be torn down and rebuilt completely and stop having Band-Aids put on problems that need deep and permanent solutions. They’re charging way too much money for these apartments my advice to you is look anywhere else but this. Read More
