I wrote a review for Ansley Forest a little over a year ago entitled "Overall, I'd probably stay."

I stayed.

And I'm going into my third year.

I moved from a two-bedroom to a one-bedroom unit last year and really only lost the space from the other bedroom (which wasn't mine anyway).

The tiles in the bathroom are still not the color I'd pick (which is white because it goes with everything), but they are a nice pale yellow and are easy to match to rugs, a shower curtain, etc.

The bedroom in my current unit is slightly smaller than my old unit, but the kitchen is bigger, as is my walk-in closet.

Now people, common sense is going to tell most people that older apartments will need more upkeep.

It's up to the tenant whether or not he chooses to live in a place where things will likely need repair due to much wear and tear.

I saw this place before moving in -- I looked at the rails on the stairs and saw that paint was chipping off -- and yeah, I said "what the hell -- the price is PERFECT." And I'm still happy I made that decision to move into Ansley Forest.

I'm still pissed off about an incident recently where my AC unit was broken and not fully repaired (meaning: replaced) for more than a month and during which time my electricity bill skyrocketed and management told me it was essentially my own problem.

SKYROCKETED.

In any event, I really would like for someone to find me an apartment complex who WOULDN'T do the same thing.

My unit was replaced and it now functions perfectly, as does every other fixture, unit, etc.

I've had them fix in my time here.

I am a good tenant and I always keep up my end of the lease, so until I can afford more I would have to say that this is by far the best community within my budget and you won't find anything better if you're in my situation, on a strict budget, and need to be in Midtown.

For the price that I pay and the location in which I live I am getting SUCH a deal!
