  West Inman Lofts: Where Luxury Goes to Die West Inman Lofts is what happens when you slap the word “luxury” on a building and hope nobody looks too closely. After living here, I can confidently say that management and the maintenance department appear to be working for two completely different properties. Security is more of a suggestion than a feature. There have been numerous car break-ins, homeless people getting into the building who shouldn’t be there, and recurring problems with access doors and the gate. Residents are told to call the police when incidents occur, while the advertised security presence is limited to certain overnight hours and days. Storage units were broken into years ago and related doors never properly fixed. Nothing says luxury quite like paying premium rent and wondering how secure your building actually is. Keep in mind, the storage units that were broken into so easily has the same locks as the apartment doors!!! The lack of cleanliness is equally impressive. The parking deck hasn’t been pressure washed in YEARS! Touching certain surfaces around this building can make you feel like you need to wash your hands immediately afterward. The pool has had thick green algae, while the lazy-river-style area went neglected for years. Eventually, management announced they were finally going to do work on it—as though residents should throw a parade for the property finally maintaining an amenity they were already paying for. Should we arrange a ribbon-cutting ceremony, too? The elevators regularly stop working, the gate has a mind of its own, and fire alarms make frequent guest appearances. Apparently, reliability is an optional luxury upgrade. Then there’s the air conditioning. The HVAC units appear to be original to this roughly 20-year-old building, and my AC broke almost every single year, often multiple times a year. Maintenance would patch the immediate problem, only for it to break again a few months later. Rather than address the underlying issue, the strategy seemed to be keeping an aging system on life support indefinitely. In all my years living there, I never once saw the ductwork or dryer vents cleaned—not even in my own unit. Dryer vents clogged with lint can create a serious fire hazard, so this isn’t just about cleanliness; it’s basic preventative maintenance and safety. Apparently, preventative maintenance is another luxury amenity that didn’t make the brochure. At this rate, duct tape and positive thinking deserve their own line item in the maintenance budget. The package room is another adventure. Around the holidays, packages are piled everywhere, sometimes making it difficult to navigate the room. Packages go missing, and delivery notifications aren’t always reliable. It’s less a package room and more an Amazon-themed scavenger hunt. And if you report a problem to the leasing office, enjoy the classic response: “We’ve never heard of that before.” Strange, considering the next resident reports the exact same issue. Either the building has an extraordinary number of unrelated coincidences, or management has perfected the art of acting surprised by its own recurring problems. To be fair, being near the Atlanta BeltLine is convenient. Unfortunately, the nearby delivery traffic on Airline Street also brings its share of noise and congestion. West Inman Lofts has potential, but potential doesn’t fix broken elevators, clean neglected common areas, maintain amenities, or replace aging equipment. Calling something luxury doesn’t make it luxury any more than putting a tuxedo on a raccoon makes it management material. If you’re considering living here, I wouldn’t recommend it. Don’t let the marketing do the thinking for you. West Inman Lofts: Where luxury goes to die, deferred maintenance goes to retire, and residents pay premium prices for an ongoing experiment in how little upkeep a building can get away with.

  Lived here for 2+ years but just moved out. I had no problems with management and the maintenance guys were great. Building is older but location is what you are paying for. I really did enjoy living there. I moved because the belt line is in a state of decay and was getting worse by the month. Thursday-Monday nights were sleepless because of gunshots, marta, and drunks yelling outside my window returning to their cars. Car was broken into two times. Convenient location but make sure you get a pool facing unit otherwise it will loud.

  The location is great, but that's about it. The hallways smell, and management tries to mask the odor with overpowering air fresheners. I only visit my girlfriend here occasionally, and I feel nauseous every time I walk through the hallway. Her HVAC system was constantly breaking down, and smells of mildew. It was an ongoing issue throughout the entirety of the lease. They did something to the upstairs unit's bathroom and sprayed some chemical but the smell spread into her unit below. The odor was so strong that my girlfriend left the apartment and spent the night elsewhere because it was unbearable. When she contacted the leasing office, asking what it could be, the response was, 'well, it's not a gas leak, so you won't blow up.' Overall, the location is the only reason to consider this building...I have a hard time believing some of the recent positive reviews are genuine because they don't reflect the actual condition of the building.

  During my latest stint of apartment tours, DeShon was one of the most knowledgeable and professional leasing agents I encountered. I just signed a lease at West Inman Lofts and I look forward to my time here.
