  Can I give less than one star. My daughter has moved in this year, and it's constantly something. The gate hasn't worked in I know the last 4 years. No security for the safety of the residents.

  When my roommates and I first moved in, we walked into a unit covered in black mold- on the walls, the ceiling, the kitchen, even the floorboards. The smell was overwhelming and damp, and the air filter hadn’t been changed in who knows how long. The place was completely unlivable. It was also filthy: wine stains on the walls near the trash, pet hair and dandruff everywhere, dirt and leaves scattered across the bedrooms. It even looked like a cat had clawed up the walls and corners. We hired a mold inspector to document everything, and he even said he wouldn’t let his children step foot in that unit. Because Central refused to move us elsewhere, we ended up staying in a hotel for two nights- we weren’t about to breathe that in. We fought hard to break our lease that same day, but they wouldn’t allow it. Eventually, after pushing and pushing, they moved us into a newly renovated “elite” unit. We were grateful for the upgrade, but extremely frustrated that it took so much effort and that breaking the lease wasn’t an option despite the atrocious condition of the unit. We were supposedly the first tenants in that new unit, yet mold still began seeping through the walls. So they literally painted over the mold and called that “brand new”. Classic landlord special. Not to mention, my toilet wasn’t even mounted to the wall correctly, the constant water leaks, and AC going out. On top of the unit issues, my roommates and I had several uncomfortable experiences that made us feel very unsafe. A stranger once walked in off the street through the UNLOCKED gate by the Hillcrest intersection and harassed me while I was walking my dog. One of my roommates was followed in the parking lot twice. We’ve both been catcalled. Drivers in the lot are reckless, and we ended up in an accident because of it. Marijuana use is widespread, and with it came what happened recently: a drug deal gone wrong that led to a shooting. (Check the news from 11/15/2025. Also, Central isn’t exclusively for students. We were never asked to provide proof of enrollment at South during the application or leasing process, so essentially anyone can live there- and it shows. If you only want to live there during the school year (August through May), they charge an extra $100 per month. And if you try to relet your lease, your chances of finding someone to take it are slim to none. Management also sucked but to be fair, shoutout to Tim and one maintenance guy (whose name I unfortunately can’t remember). They were the only bright spots. Tim worked the front desk and always helped with questions and package issues: but even then, packages routinely took days to be delivered, and some simply disappeared. I once had an Amazon delivery with a photo showing it at the front desk, but when I went to get it, even though Central hadn’t notified me, it wasn’t there. I never received it. In short, no amenity, discount, or promise is worth the stress, safety concerns, and health risks we experienced here. These aren’t minor inconveniences… they’re genuine hazards. If you value your well-being, peace of mind, and basic respect from the place you call home, do yourself a favor and avoid Central entirely. I wouldn’t wish our experience on any student or parent. Please read the reviews, ask around, and trust the patterns you see: Central has repeatedly shown that resident health and safety are not priorities. You can find better, and you deserve better. Don’t gamble with your living situation when there are plenty of other complexes in West Mobile that will treat you with the care, professionalism, and security this one fails to provide.
