Camden Brookwood Apartments

Review date: 2021-09-13

I chose Camden Brookwood largely because of the star ratings and reviews on Apartments.com. Anytime you sign a lease, you're taking a risk, but I felt it was a more calculated risk because I had the reviews and ratings to help me decide if the downsides were deal-breakers for me.

I've been in the new apartment for a little over a month, now. We're in a top-floor apartment in the 2000 building. The layout is called the Sundial, and has a spiral staircase and a loft... inside the apartment. You can find a walkthrough on YouTube that shows it.

The move-in experience has been pretty smooth. The folks in the leasing office are wonderful, especially Dani and Tara. There weren't any "surprises," which was a pleasant surprise.

The unit, itself, is very quiet. Since we're a top floor unit, I can't say if the sound insulation is good between floors, but it is quite good between units. I've heard our next door neighbor only once (and it was when she was singing quite beautifully... I had to strain to hear her, though!).

Outside the apartments, we have some people with muscle cars or modified mufflers that make a lot of noise. They don't tend to be audible but for a few minutes in the mornings, though. I've also been able to hear music coming through the windows before, but pretty much only on Friday nights and not for a terribly long time. And it's quiet enough that it's only bothersome if I don't have any music or TV on.

I haven't used the amenities outside of the dog park so far because we're still moving in and because of COVID, but am looking forward to starting to do so in the near future.

I will try to remember to come back and update this review if things change in the future. Read More

DO NOT MOVE HERE. I relocated from San Francisco to these apartments 2 months ago and it has been the worst experience I have ever had with an apartment complex. I'm now having to look into paying to break my lease, although all of my CONSISTENT complaints over the last 2 months have been well documented. Called corporate for help - they promised to follow up with me and I never heard from them.

(1) BUGS BUGS BUGS - if you don't like bugs, don't move here. They are everywhere all the time.... Pest control is a joke. They spray chemicals into your home that are toxic for pets & leave sticky pads everywhere. It's not consistent and you have to keep asking for them to come, or they will just stop.
(2) Security is an issue - there have been several car break ins, an auto theft and an attempted home robbery in the TWO MONTHS I have been here. Right now, there's a truck in the garage that has been sitting on bricks with a busted window for at least 2 weeks.
(3) The dog park STINKS. Literally makes me gag when I walk by it. Mind you, I'm walking by on the 3rd floor breezeway to my building - the dog park is on the ground level. That's how bad it stinks. And don't get me started on parking here.
(4) Construction all the time, everywhere. I'm listening to them hammer on the wall next to me right now. Yelling, banging, dust and debris all over the building.
(5) Packages get stolen all the time. There is no secure package system and I've had one package taken. Other residents report all the time on the community page about their packages being taken.
(6) Technology package is terrible. My internet is constantly buffering and it took me two weeks to get the cable turned on.

Look somewhere else. I regret the day I moved in here. Read More

This community offers the best value out of all the communities we looked at. It's a great location in the heart of Atlanta, the management company has a wonderful repuation, and cable, internet, laundry machines, trash collection EVERY night, and 24 hour service is all included. This value can't be beat. Highly recommend this community.

Camden Brookwood is an awesome community, great location. The staff is very helpful and attentive helping with all of your needs and concerns. The grounds are well kept, maintenance issues are answered within 24 hours.

I have lived at Camden Brookwood a little over one year. They have a great leasing/maintenance staff, and the location is prime. I would recommend living here to anyone. Just like any other apartment complex, yes you have to pay a application fee and stuff.... BUT, out of all the places I have stayed, this one is definitely worth it for sure. Its clutch!
