The apartment has been great and has a ton of amenities. It is also walking distance to many of the bars and venues downtown that Fuqua has its events at. The apartment unit itself is spacious and affordable. The gym is HUGE and better than most gyms in Durham. Lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance.

Review title says it all. I live in a 3br in West Village and my walls do not reach the ceiling. The walls are 8 feet and the ceiling is 14 feet. This means theres is very little privacy between rooms. We don’t really even notice anymore, but I would not recommend for introverts or people who frequently have guests over.

Beautiful apartments but not taken care of really well, especially for the price.

It has a lot of character which makes the downsides pretty much worth it.

Overall, this place has been great for me. I have a great view from my balcony of downtown and the pool. I have had relatively few issues with the apartment, and maintenance is pretty timely whenever things need to be fixed. The front office is wonderful and normally handles requests on the same day. My neighbors are nice and friendly. This place is also pet and kid-friendly. There are different generations and family configurations that live here. It is safe and I have lived her for my entire graduate experience.

The building is undergoing renovations and as a result we have had many maintenance issues and maintenance has been slow to respond to them.

Great apt away from 9th street

Good affordable option to live downtown.

I just moved into West Village, but I'm enjoying living here so far. I'm living in one of the units in an old warehouse building, so the building is very unique and has its own style. West Village is located downtown and less than 10 minutes drive to Duke's campus and the hospital. The location is perfect, because you can easily walk to restaurants and other businesses nearby.

I only really have two gripes about the apartment complex. First, the property management is not great. They fail to respond to emails and leave expectations unclear for certain obligations the tenants have (e.g., they said they would start fining for units that leave trash cans in the hallway after the garbage collection window, but they didn't respond to an email asking what that specific window is). Second, the price is pretty high. The apartments are great and spacious, and the commute to the law school takes 7 minutes.
