Loud, rowdy tenants, ants and fire alarms

If you pine for your college days and yearn to live in a noisy frat house again then this is the place for you.

Had a major ant infestation. While waiting for pest control was told by the office to spray Windex, as ants hate Windex.

Loud groups of rowdy people partying at all hours in the halls and parking decks on weekends. Lots of empty beer bottles littered in the parking deck as well as fast-food containers.

Fire alarms keep going off. One month alarm went off 3 times, once allegedly because a tenant was grilling outdoors at 11:30 PM.

Depending on the side of the building on which you live, will hear traffic noise 24/7 from GA 400 or construction noise.

One month received three notices advising that apartments had been burglarized and/or cars stolen. Tenants were cautioned to be mindful of strangers in the complex, etc.

In addition to rent and water charges each month there will be mysterious charges such as "common area fees" and "administative fees." Tenants get a statement mailed each month advising what is owed, it's that confusing.

Bottom line: the floor plans are very nice, the staff try to be helpful, maintenance does respond to requests within two business days and the location is convenient to MARTA, etc. If you want to live in the heart of Buckhead and be where the action is, then rent at Post Stratford. However, the units are way overpriced for what you get not to mention the noise, the ants, safety issues.
