  Devolved from what used to be an incredible complex. I used to live at governours square in one of their townhome units in 2022, they were great then, management was easy and maintenance wasn’t bad, the online portal was also easy to understand and pay rent through… Now I’m living in one of their flat units, experienced the complex laundry rooms for the first time, that was… terrible. They, like other degenerative complexes, have partnered with spectrum so that they may be the only ground line internet provider you can choose. They have also partnered with Bilt, a company that collects your information for fun and hands over the rent check to governours square. We used to be able to pay you directly what’s up with that? On top of this, to discourage you from bypassing Bilt’s data-collecting drag net, they charge a convenience fee for a darned CASHIERS CHECK. I don’t know if this was a change in management, or just the way the world is, but don’t even bother looking at this complex until they’ve amended their parasitic company partnerships. Stuff like this needs to be criminalized. As for the goods? The unit I got, while definitely showing its age, isn’t too bad, things work. I personally think both this flat, and the townhome I rented, are nice. Modernized enough to feel up to date, but not too much to lean into unnecessary technology which is massively appreciated.

  When I started the whole rental process with Governours Square. The gentleman told me the apartment would not be ready for twenty days, because they had to repaint and get the apartment ready to be moved into. The day before I move in the apartment still had not been repainted nor had the wood laminate floors been cleaned. The blinds were broken. Can't raise or lower them. The blinds in the living room were broken and stained. The cabinets were dirty and had food crumbs in them. The front bottom of the refrigerator still had spilled food of some sort on it. If I would have known that the apartment was in this kind of condition. I would not have moved in, but I had signed the lease to the apartment sight unseen, because they would not let me see it beforehand.

  We recently moved in, and so far, our experience has been excellent. The staff have been very helpful, responsive, and professional. I especially appreciate the gentleman who has consistently answered my calls whenever I’ve needed assistance. When I contacted the office regarding an issue with the AC, he promptly arranged for maintenance to come out. I also reached out about an issue with the Amazon Locker, and he was able to resolve it right away. Thank you to the entire team for your excellent customer service and for making our move-in experience so positive. I apologize that I didn’t get the gentleman’s name, but I truly appreciate all of his help and quick response!

  Governours Square will keep you guessing, because this apartment complex has both its benefits and cons. For starters, I had an alright time staying here. The neighborhood is genuinely beautiful with plenty of trees, basketball courts, and other amenities. Seemingly very family friendly if that interests you, whereas I lived alone and was finishing my last year of Ohio State. The apartment was usually a 15 minute drive to campus for me. It really only was a problem once Columbus decided to redo all of the sewers alongside the road there in the area and along Kenny. I will say this place's biggest con was how it isn't really water friendly. The main road would flood, and my apartment had some water trouble with the rain we got while I was there. The wooden frame of the sliding glass door was damaged from all the water, and, while it did get fixed, it later got damaged again in the spring. The snow was awful too, and the plow trucks barely plowed the neighborhood up. On top of that, the communal washers and dryers always broke or flooded because people would throw their entire apartment in the machines, causing the washers to shake and break off of the water line. Weird that at the time they'd advertise in unit washer and dryers, and yet my unit never had one. I gave this place a 3 because overall it was a very mid apartment complex.
