Westwood Estates 100 Riverbend Drive, West Columbia, SC 29169

"Was sooo surprised to see the mixed reviews…. I’ve been here two years and haven’t experienced any of these problems THE staff is extremely nice. I have a premium, one bedroom and premium is just that it feels like a luxury apartment for a low price. not to mention this is a peaceful working area Maintenance is super quick and polite and actually clean up after themselves. My only thing is I can’t wait for the pool to be open"

"these reviews are fake. this is literally a scam the management is run by adolescent individuals that have no idea what they are doing in the slightest. we’ve been locked in our house, our window fell through and hasnt been replaced, mold in the door floors walls etc, no ac for the whole time we have lived here over 80+ degrees everyday and they either tell us they don’t have a maintenance team or when they send someone out they say they don’t know how to fix it and it’s never done. no water most of the time, holes/cracks in the door floor walls, and random fees like bug maintenance ( they never spray for bugs) you cant have anything in front of your door. just run in the opposite direction get as far away as you can"

"I don't know what happend to my previous review. Most of these reviews are fake. The water is off daily. Trash all over the place. Grass left to be knee high before lawn is mowed. Pool been down for two summers. Laundry room only open when open. Which is rarely. Phone rings to emergency after hours numbers, no one answer or calls back. Office door sign says open, blinds closed doors locked all day during business hours . No phone . VERY rude staff. Courtney and Katherine just stand outside and smoke and flirt with the Hispanic workers. Yeah Anthony was prob best thing shaking for that office. They have an excuse for everything. Allow people to have animal food for so called indoor outdoor pets outside on porch to feed all the strays.Only some people are held to standards of cleaning up dog poop. My neughbo has 3 of them and never takes bags out . Fighting and screaming all day and night . Raise rent prices with no updates, no use of amenities etc .. when I moved in you had to register vehicle qnd have parking tags, there was on-site security patrolling on weekend nights etc. Now nothing. Raise rent for what? It should come down!"

"I’ve been here for a few months since October. The water is always cut off at the most inconvenient times last week it was off all day 3 days in a row. Maintenance takes forever to come fix anything doesn’t matter how serious, they have a pest problem doesn’t matter how clean you keep it. I was also told water was included and my rent would be $959… it’s not. Notice most of the good reviews come from ppl who don’t even live here. The new neighbors above me are the worst a lot of drug traffic in and out and super loud arguing fighting and playing loud music late on school Nights. Just ghetto, Police are always being called The place is so run down and getting worse. There was even shooting out here heard recently.They are letting any and everyone move out here. If you work from home I suggest looking elsewhere. Not a good place to have your kids. My sons didn’t want to come outside anymore and other neighbors feel the same way.They change management so much there may be a different manager by the time I send this.The laundry room is only open when the office is open so it’s inconvenient. Just so many things I could say. I’m more than happy to break my lease just for peace. I know it’s affordable but you definitely get what you pay for here. I would recommend going elsewhere if you can help it."

"I lived at Westwood Estates for about two years and I have to stay I’m not pleased with a lot of things at this community. My partner and I have a 8 month old baby and we’ve had a squirrel issue in our apartment that never got taken care of and the previous property manager stated it was nothing she could do. We transferred to a new unit and the beginning of this month and it’s just as bad as our old unit. Hot water tank is outdated, flooring was never replaced, doorframes wasn’t replaced, on top of them always turning off the water. If I’m going to be paying $1,029 a month I want everything to be updated and for my family to be comfortable."
