If I can give 0 rating I would. Am a non smoker which I stated in my least but they paired me with a smoker. I reported n they didnt do nothing about it until i moved out. They be lying too. Never in my life again.

Rooms walls are super thin you can literally hear your roommate every move. Parking lot stays dirty, great college staff that works there but the adults and manager is horrible. Do your research before moving here.

I love living at The Gates!! Rent is great and the distance from campus is great. Sometimes there’s some noise in the parking lot late at night on the weekend, and of course working to get along with neighbors, but I’ve had a good time living here!

VSU students.....just stay on campus. If you have to live off campus go somewhere else. Here’s a quick look into what you’ll face: mold, mildew, roaches, spiders, faulty appliances, late mail, and did I mention when a tenant moves out they don’t replace the carpet? Yuck!

The gates are a wonderful place to live! i was new to valdosta and they made me feel at home!

This is the most unprofessional complex I have ever lived in. We put in a maintenance request to fix our kitchen drawer in September of 2020...it’s February of 2021...still isn’t fixed. We also have problems with our upstairs neighbors’ weed addiction. They smoke so much of it that we can smell it in our apartment about 5 times a day. We asked the apartment complex to deal with the issue and they said their was nothing they could do...right. We are NOT renewing our lease.

A great example of a place who can advertise something and make it look better than it actually is. Very thin walls and bedrooms are right across from each other with open vents on both so you can hear everything going on as if youre in there with them. Very thin walls so you can hear your neighbors all the time. Every morning, I hear my neighbors alarm on their phone go off and their alarm is at a normal volume, but it sounds like its in my room. Backyard area looks like a disaster. When advertising, they dont show the backyard area of the apartments but there are fallen trees blocking the walkway and dead leaves everywhere. Inside the apartments is very dark too. In the pictures, it looks super bright and nice but in reality, inside is really dark with the lights on because not that many windows, furniture is dark, the kitchen fridge and cabinets are dark too. Makes the place feel not so great.

I have been here through 2 leasing periods. Finally getting out now. I wasn’t able to get out sooner because of all the hidden fees that they fail to tell you about when signing the lease “I’ve checked, they’re not in it”. I hear my neighbors blaring music and yelling almost every night. I have asked them to stop and told management about it but it doesn’t change. You’re given a small silicone band that you have to wear to get in the pool and if you lose it you have to pay $50. WiFi is decent at best with outages just about every month even with good weather.

DO NOT LIVE HERE WHAT EVER YOU DO! Terrible place to live and I never felt safe. The office does not care and the company does not care about anything, but receiving a check. You are nothing more to them than a check. Live anywhere else, but here. You will hate it the second you move in.

Empty promises and lots of lies. Be warned. They DO NOT CLEAN ANYTHING when a tenant leaves. Found trash in the cabinets, clothes in the closet, trash behind the apartment. False advertising. There is no fiber optic internet, struggles to reach 10 up and down. Student Living Apartments they rent to ANYONE who can sign a lease. 5 star reviews have to be written by the front office. BE WARNED LOOK ELSEWHERE.

Its great here at The Gates Apartments! My apartment was clean with no bugs, maintenance came within 2 weeks of leasing to make sure everything was okay security-wise! A/C gets very cold when on low setting(Nice for HOTT summers). Pool is relaxing and not a loud area!

Their manager or whoever runs their leasing office needs to be fired. My friend got her car towed because of somebody else fault . She tried to contact them more than 4 times to and each time they told her they would get their manager. Now before this, my friend did call the towing department first to explain her situation. They understood very much and told her they would release it with no charges if the manager agrees. Now, when she finally spoke to the manager, she told was very rude and said she’ll tow any car no matter the reason if it didn’t have a sticker on there. The reason why my friend had her car was only because somebody else was driving it and they pulled in because the car was making noises. Instead of trying to help her or at least be sympathetic towards her, the manager told her that’s your friend faults and they should never park here without any permit. The manager knows that all she had to do was call the towing apartment saying she understood the situation and release it but no, she bluntly said I tow any car I see that don’t belong here, I just TOWED ONE MORE TODAY MINUTES AGO! What a ridiculous running of an apartment . Instead of sharing love and being a community, this apartment is ran by very stingy non understanding who just wants money . I hope that you, the manager reads this and find love and sympathy towards other people in the New Years. May god bless your soul.

Living here has been an absolute breeze. One of the greatest semesters thus far. The friendly staff are always helpful whenever i come to them with a problem..

Do not live here unless you want to live with a roommate that has a baby, that said all the other bad reviews are 100% true. Just don’t do it to yourself.

It’s been okay drains are small walls are thin it is quiet tho rent on higher end but everything is included

Dont trust people who gave them 5 stars. Also, horrible internet at the gate stadium, and they try to charge you as possible as they can. If you are rich person, i recommend you living this complex. You are just money for them not the client.

I lived here for 2 years. It was great for the most part. No one is ever at the pool. Its always open. The best part is that its literally 50 feet from a great bar - Ashley Street Station.

It’s a great apartment complex it’s nice and comfortable but affordable.

They only follow the lease when it’s convenient to them. Complaints and safety concerns not considered seriously. They also neglect to tell you that student was killed here last year. Prices are way too high for a place that is rapidly declining in service. There’s a lot of violence, especially from other tenants and if you call the leasing office or the police they literally couldn’t care less. Especially if you’re being harassed. If you care about your wellbeing then don’t lease here.

The Gates itself is great. Living quarters are one of the best student living. They should enforce residents to pick up after their dog. Itll keep the community looking presentable.

Super nice and responsible people work there. A lots to be done for sure.

The Gates has been amazing since the day I signed my lease. The staff is very professional and friendly and wonderful to do business with. I resigned my lease because of the convenience and great environment!

Ive enjoyed my first few months at The Gates. The staff is helpful and friendly and its such a nice quiet place to live. This is the best place Ive lived since coming to Valdosta.

Its a great place to live. Everyone in the office is super helpful. The rooms are pretty spacious and its really close to campus. I love it here.

Ive had a great experience! The apartments are nice and the staff are excellent. I love the community of the gates, and all the activities they put on in the office!

Very convenient place to live. The rent is a bit too high compared to other complexes that are equal in quality.

Good place for college kids to stay while away from home.

I resigned my lease because of the Environment. I have not had an issues yet and I love it there.

The staff at the gates are ver polite. They dont mind helping you out when needed. But I do feel that there are somethings that can be improved such as the utility bill Increasing even when Im not using my electricity or water when I am away on breaks .

Ive lived here for almost 3 years(this year is my last). Its definitely not the worst place to live but Im sure there are better places at a better price that have more to offer in Valdosta.Pros: 1. MAINTENANCE is great, whenever I have an issue they are always on it. 2. The grass is always cut. 3. They give away food in the office sometimes. 4. The complex is walking distance from VSUCons: 1. They charge overages every month that can range from $30 to an infinite amount of money, even if you and your roommate arent there. Rent is supposed to be all inclusive but its funny how they dont tell people the truth about the overages. 2. If you have an issue that the leasing office cant handle, they wont give you the corporate number. 3. They have assigned parking spots & only the lucky people get spots that are anywhere near their apartment. 4. The wifi included in your all-inclusive rent is weak which can be extremely inconvenient if youre a student. 5. A lot of students use financial aid to pay up rent, but the Gates will STILL charge you late fees everyday until the financial aid refunds drop. So no they are not financial aid friendly in my opinion.If I didnt hate moving so much and I wouldve moved after my first year. I would check The Gates out if I were looking for places but be aware of the fact that they WILL NOT tell you everything upfront. The rent is not the only thing youll be paying every month, they will find ways to get more money out of you I promise. READ through the lease yourself to know exactly what youre getting yourself into.

Very helpful and understanding staff

Its a awesome property! I love staying here

Great place to live! A lot of fun too.

I went to the gates on April 2nd to inquire about leasing a room. The lady that was working was very rude. She was watching tv on her computer with ear buds in her ears, and acted like I was bothering her by asking questions about the complex so I just left.

Clean place

All I have to say is.....BEST PLACE EVER!!!

Just need a bigger pool and maybe a game room. The rooms are nice

Awesome staff! Awesome amenities! Awesome place!

Great apartment complex! Would recommend to anyone!

The Gates has decent staff but the electricity overages are ridiculous and there is dog fecies everywhere outside near the pool.

This is a college apartment complex specifically for college students. Its okay for students but I wouldnt live there.

Management is poor on follow-up. I was given the amount for carpet cleaning fee, but was also charged a cleaning fee which was never communicated to me. I was due a refund after moving out. It was promised to me within 30 days, but it took several follow-up calls for me to receive it within 45 days.

Bad place poor management

Great place!
