MAA

Living at Acklen has been great! It is super convenient to both the 3401 and Crystal Terrance VUMC bus route, making it easy to get to school and you don't have to pay for parking. The management is nice and responsive. We have a few social events a month. I honestly have no complaints about living here!

Individuals at this apartment are not friendly or kind. There are many pets in the apartment complex and owners are not reliable in cleaning up after their animals. Management charges for anything possible. Environment is overall poor, however there are many available amenities.

A lot of Emory med students live here their first year! Great price, very close to Emory and convenient

Average apartment with good community

Great location for first year! Tons of students live here.

If you want to live near other grad students, this is the place to be! There are tons of young people, and it's very social. It's also quiet and spacious which is nice. There are sometimes issues with maintenance.

Management is decent. Great location, cheap prices. Lots of medical students here which is great. Facilities are nice.

The building is great - there is a huge study room on the fifth floor that has a Starbucks coffee machine (with three different types of coffee, hot chocolate, and tazo tea). It's usually quiet and has lots of different study spaces + a conference room if you need to do group work. The gym is way nicer than a normal apartment gym (has a stair master!!) The lounge areas on the first floor are also really great. There's free food like once a week at apartment events. You'll have valet trash which I initially thought was silly, but I now love (which means that you leave your trash outside of your door and someone picks it up).The apartment management is also really nice, and even though the building is huge, they know my name which I appreciate. I would definitely recommend!

No one will come out and visit you but it's a lot of space!

Average experience

Great value for the price

Consistent, unfixed maintenance problems

Overall I'm very happy with this apartment. It is a nice building in a great location. Close to some bars and restaurants but also right on a bus line to get downtown and to campus. It is more spacious than something downtown for the same price, but downtown is still a 5 minute drive/walkable on a nice day. Also, AMAZING rooftop lounge area that is by far my favorite part of the building.

Good overall/good amenities. Good location - on bus route. Free printing. Tons of natural light. Occasional malfunctioning parking garage gate.

We really like our apartment at colonial village. It is in Duke Forest and is surrounded by so many trails. The apartment itself is large and very nice, and the complex has a great pool and big hammock area. The main downside we have experienced is cockroaches. Other than that, we are very happy here.
