Villas On Guadalupe, austin-tx

Maintenance and some office workers were nice; however, there are too many structural issues. My apartment had pipe issues twice which resulted in me having to be temporarily removed from mg apartments both times due to flooding. Management can be slow to respond if you’re not pestering them for a reply. In the first relocation, it took them 2-3 days to rehouse me and my cat, and on the second relocation, they were able to rehouse me the following morning. However, staying at a shelter temporarily due to their lack of urgency was humiliating. The pool is pretty, sometimes, and I enjoyed a few of the events they held for residents. Best of luck to whoever gets my apartment (404) — hopefully no more pipe failures!

Former resident at VOG for a few years. Residential: Units were great and no major issues with insect infestations/power outages. You will have to clean vents in move-in though. Other's experiences may vary. Management: In my experience, they really improved after Spring 2024. Before that there were many random fire alarms, AC, and internet outages. Can't speak for others. Geokey: It was added in June 2025, so very recent. It was fine for parking garage use, but could malfunction certain days hence -1 star. Current tenants may have more opinions on this. The former key fob entry process was rock-solid and personally far more convenient. Overall: Great pick though can be pricey. Management was reasonable and did not play any tricks. Great apartment choice for undergraduate years and generally quiet area.

I would rate it lower if I could, Villas on Guadalupe management is quite simply a laughingstock. They have utterly lost the respect of their tenants. The “locking” system, and I use that term loosely, that management deemed appropriate (affordable) is absolutely horrendous. Geokey is by far the worst app ever designed. Rather than using a fob system or even lock and key, Management decided to employ an app that requires at least a minute of loading in order to unlock your requested door (selected among the hundreds of other listed by name, some noted as *backup backup). In addition the explicit safety hazard that comes with having to wait for a minute while Geokey decides to unlock your door in the middle of downtown Austin, recently, Geokey has eliminated all but the garage entrances to be accessible due to malfunction and extreme management negligence. The included picture truly depicts the disgusting nature of Villas on Guadalupe, despite the hyper-edited photos its website wants to force down your throat. The “pool” has been out of commission for over two weeks without a sign of any intention of fixing. Hopefully this testimony can act as a cautionary tale to any poor soul considering on signing at Villas on Guad. That being said, the carpet in the bedrooms is quite a nice touch, the bill to have them professionally cleaned at the tenants expense, however, not so nice.

My son Kaius loves his one bedroom, fully furnished apartment with a balcony that overlooks the pool. We just signed another one year lease. It is a perfect location and walkable to UT campus for all his classes. Safe with the garage parking and easy access to local shopping and restaurants. Great place! Highly recommend.

This apartment complex is awesome! Very convenient to walk to classes. Very clean and kept up well. The Staff is amazing and VERY helpful. Brittany is and continues to be a rockstar and helps with anything you need! 10/10 I would recommend checking this place out if you’re at UT!
