Bexley Village

I lived there for a year and the worst part was when the landlord kicked us out for construction for multiple weeks! The property management barely compensated us, gave us no place to live, and I struggled financially.

I love living in Bexley Village. It's in a nice area within walking distance of various fast food restaurants and a small, independently owned grocery convenience store. If that doesn't suit you, Kroger is a quick drive down Sheridan. The neighbors tend to keep to themselves mostly; a downside if you enjoy living in a neighborly environment. Being near Capital University, many students (including myself) call it their home. Occasionally they can get loud a bit later than is comfortable, but this… doesn't happen too often.

There is an open pool, though I personally don't go there often so I can't vouch for it. There is also a small facility of coin-operated laundry machines. Make sure to bring your rolls of quarters though, because there is no change machine in sight, and each load costs $2.50 to run through the washer and dryer.

As far as the apartment itself goes, it's fairly nice. We've had a few very minor issues here and there, but maintenance is always quick to respond. The bedrooms are a comfortable size, but the kitchen and dining room can be a bit claustrophobic. Though there is a dishwasher installed if you hate scrubbing dishes. The balconies are nice, but there isn't much of a view aside from the occasional neighbor taking out trash. The wall facing the balcony is covered in windows, though, which provides a lot of necessary natural light. There are no ceiling lights in the living room and bedroom, but there are switches connected to a single outlet into which you can plug a lamp.

Depending on what you're used to and who you live with, the bathroom situation in the two-bedroom can be a bit funky. The first bathroom, accessible via the hallway, is a half with a toilet and a sink. In this bathroom, there is a door to the second bathroom containing the shower and another toilet. This one has a door that leads to the walk-in closet of the master bedroom, inside which is another sink. Best to speak with your roommate/family in advance about bathroom procedures. Read More

Although this is an older & dated complex, it is quiet and enjoyable. The staff addresses concerns quickly and professionally. There is a good mix of professionals, students, and families. A pool helps pass the summer and a bike path is extremely close by. Bexley is a wonderful community that has an excellent school system. Thank you Bexley Village!!

This is a great complex to live in for those who want a small town feel 5 minutes from downtown. Bexley is a beautiful enclave near downtown. The complex is in the corner of Bexley and has a great pool. The first floor units often have patios that are dug into the hill, which I would not be a fan of, but the second and third floor units have great spacious balconies. No laundry hook ups in the units is a little inconvenient but they do provide a decently priced laundry facility. The… buildings have character, and are plenty spacious. Read More
