Review for The Connection at Athens

My experience is great. Everything is well managed. However the apartment is located quite far from the college and it is hard to manage without car. Although a shuttle is arranged by the property owners at a regular schedule but still there is a lot of time wastage that happens because of the difference between class and the bus schedule

Great for a Student On a Budget

The Connection at Athens has gone through a management change this year, and they are great. They are very responsive and consistently ask for resident's opinions. I enjoy living at the Connection because it is fully furnished, in a quiet area, and close to Publix, Aldi, and Target. The apartment area is clean and has a newly repaved basketball court, a newly renovated gym, multiple pools, a volleyball court, and a dog park. The apartment has its own storage space and walk-in closets.

The only con about living here is that it is a drive from campus, but the apartment has a bus that runs to and from campus throughout the day.

good place if you are bringing a car

Good apt with a gated community. Lots of amenities and comes furnished. Huge closets and lofted beds for storage underneath. Washer and Dryer in unit. Have a shuttle to campus but not as reliable. New management starting Aug of 2023 and all previous issues I have had for the last 2 years

The Connection

The Connection is only about four miles from the law school, is across the street from a Target, and down the road from several grocery stores and restaurants. Comparatively, my rent is reasonable for all of the amenities that are included. I've had a really positive experience living here, and there are no glaring concerns.

The Connection

Good, furnished property. Very close to Walmart neighborhood market and to the big target. 8-12 min commute to school. Biggest issue with complex is the gate being broken constantly and just open for everyone without using the fob. The closets are HUGE.

Great place to live and very affordable

This apartment is a short drive from campus, provides 24/7 security, numerous amenities, and has on-site maintenance to assist with any issues. It has been a great place to live and continues to surpass my expectations for a college apartment complex.
