48 West, allendale-mi

Ryan and the entire team at 48 West have been extremely friendly, helpful, and professional throughout my experience. Ryan especially has gone above and beyond to listen to my concerns, communicate clearly, and work with me to resolve issues. He also helped me move from my previous apartment into my current apartment, which is much cleaner and a much better living situation. More recently, when I brought some roommate-related concerns to him, he took the time to listen and assured me that he would work on addressing them. I really appreciate how approachable and supportive the whole 48 West team have been. They have made a stressful situation much easier to deal with, and their willingness to help has made a big difference in my experience living here. Highly recommended!!

Lived here for 2 years as a student. Here are the pros and cons Pros: - maintenance is good. Never had a problem with work orders - apartments aren’t bad. They do the job - amenities are good - there is some nature behind 48 Cons: - not a very “college environment” many families and adults living here, not necessarily a bad thing just something to be aware of. - the guest parking situation is absolutely horrible. - they will try every trick in the book to get you to sign/resign, just be aware. I promise you, this isn’t the last day they’re offering that deal.

Genuinely the worst place I’ve stayed at. Don’t even try reasoning with management. Not only were they difficult to deal with but I got charged an extra fee for so many stupid things it’s just not worth it. Bonus, the guest parking is way worse than what it used to be when they switched the way the did it, very annoying and difficult. The boots got up charged even more! It used to be 50 but I hear it’s maybe 75-90 now? Only good thing about this place is the repairmen. Dennis is awesome! Anyways, try meadows! It’s cheaper and nice.

There are some things that are annoying about living here: facilities closing early relative to other apartments, picking up packages is a hassle due to office hours and underutilized package lockers, guest parking is always a hassle and absolute security has their own reputation, just to name a few. However, their saving grace is their maintenence team, they often manage to show up within 15 min of a request being put in and just fix the issue without questions being asked or any accusations of fault, Dennis is the best. 48 west management needs to get a couple of notes from Dennis.

I signed my lease in October and the leasing staff has been a great help for all the questions I’ve had. Leslie the manager helped us out initially and did a great job explaining the process. Avery has also been amazing answering my questions recently. I am excited to move in and make use of the great amenities. Definitely recommend!
