GrandMarc at Tallahassee, tallahassee-fl

Scrolling through these reviews, I was quite hesitant to come and tour this apartment complex. However, as soon as I walked in the door, I was greeted by the lady named Marieliza, and she was so kind throughout our whole tour, she answered every question that I had for her. She was just overall really sweet. I didn’t see the rudeness that people were talking about in the other reviews!

Had a terrible experience living here. First of all my unit was disgusting upon move in. The whole building feels very old and run down but my unit specifically had mold on the vents, scratches on all the cabinetry, stains in the bathtub, and old dusty carpeting that should’ve been replaced years ago. The windows all had mold growing on the bottom so I couldn’t ever open them unless I wanted to breathe that in. Motel 6 looks like a five star resort compared to this place. I also rented one of their storage units to store my stuff for a few weeks while I was in between leases, only to come back and find that door completely unlocked, cracked open, with the lights on. Someone easily could’ve stolen my things while I was away. So many downgrades occurred while I was living here. They replaced perfectly good vending machines with a machine where you have to pay a monthly subscription to use and the items in the machine were honestly really bad/useless. Visitor parking used to be free but now they charge for it. And instead of maybe updating the study rooms with actually usable desks, they decided to hang up these big ugly paintings. The trash room is constantly dirty, the trash chute is entirely too small and borderline hazardous as I cut my finger on the rusty door once and immediately went to get a tetanus shot. The maintenance guys are nice, I just think the building is in such bad shape that it’s hard for them to keep up. The fire alarm situation is very much true, they go off at all hours of the day, though it was lower on my list of concerns considering how bad the air quality was in my apartment. I genuinely think living here triggered my childhood asthma. Highly recommend looking elsewhere it’s simply not worth it.

I cannot say enough about GrandMarc and the community assistants specifically Maddie!! She did an absolute amazing job showing me around and had nothing but positive things to say! Her bubbly personality really stood out! She is an awesome employee!!! Thank you Maddie!!!

Only decent living experience I have had in Tallahassee. Friendly staff and large bedrooms. I appreciate the laid-back parking situation compared to all the other money hungry student living spots. Not shabby for the price, give it a chance.

currently writing this at 6am after the fire alarm just went off AGAIN and woke me up. it constantly goes off at random times and i always have to peek into the hallways to make sure it's not an actual emergency, which is dangerous in itself bc god forbid an actual fire happens and no one evacuates. i've been living here for almost 2 years now and can confirm this is an issue that they just won't fix, even though they say they're working on it. beyond the annoying fire alarms, my apartment was in poor condition upon move in. the cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom were all stained or had big ugly scratches on them. the couch was filthy and i had to spend my own money on couch covers. the dishwasher was rancid and maintenance's solution for cleaning this was to run a cycle using my own dawn dish soap, resulting in me coming home to a flooded kitchen. while maintenance is usually quick to respond to requests, they constantly leave a mess behind and use your supplies without permission. they also will come in and do random jobs like swap out your light bulbs which is helpful BUT they don't notify you that they're doing complex wide maintenance so i'm always scrambling and caught off guard when they bang on my door. the doors to get into the complex are constantly broken or stuck, despite them bringing a guy in to fix the key fobs every few months. it really is a toss up of whether i need to fob into the complex or not because sometimes it's locked and sometimes it's broken and anyone can enter freely. you'd think that after years of having this problem they'd figure out another solution. the last huge inconvenience i've had to deal with since moving in is that they charge for visitor parking now. what used to be free and easy is now a hassle and money grab for no reason. i literally can't ever have friends or family over unless i find other parking arrangements for them because having to pay for parking in tallahassee is insane. i could go on and on about other issues but other reviewers have touched on a lot of them. save yourself the headache and don't move here!
