Stay away! Horrible Management! Unsafe!

Absolutely the worst apartment experience I've ever seen. Before moving in, I wanted to verify the size of the beds in the apartments, and couldn't get someone on the phone ALL SUMMER LONG. So we moved my daughter in, and because one of the residents they "matched" her with had renewed, they never cleaned any of the apartment, not even the bedrooms and bathrooms of the other three girls. And when I say "matched", the girls stated in their matching application that they were non-drinkers, yet they were matched with someone that had a shrine to alcohol and would stand in the kitchen taking shot after shot. We only saw this person for 30 minutes and she had consumed 2 cocktails before we left. Anyway, the girl ended up leaving because she didn't like being matched either. She left without cleaning anything, so the three girls did that. Since the girl left there a month ago, they stored their brand new vacuum and mop outside the door of the girl that left so it was out of the way, and the maintenance guy stole it one day when he was replacing the smoke alarms that went off twice. There is no emergency # to call there, so the fire department had to come to disable them, stating the devices were over 10 years old and most didn't have batteries in them. After reaching out to management, I was told that my daughter and her roommates were lying about the location of their vacuum and mop, and there was no apology. The maintenance man returned the items and said that he was afraid that they were going to steal the other girl's things, so he was there to "secure anything valuable". He did not ask the girls who they belonged to. When I called the office and spoke to a lady who said she was not the manager (which she admitted to being just that later in the phone call) she said that the girls were liars and she was not going to do anything to resolve the matter. This is absolutely the worst place to live. Security gates have never worked since move-in. Do not let your college kid live here. They are taking advantage of them and not providing the service or security that a $6100/mo apartment would warrant, nor are the appliances, flooring, or other aesthetics worthy of paying this amount.

Love 400!

A lot of these old reviews are from under previous management but Greystar has really changed 400 Meeting for the better. They care about their residents and the maintenance team is top-notch. They just got new security too so I feel really secure in my apartment. The rooms are huge and I have a view of the Ravenel bridge from my window. I love sitting out at the pool and the new coffee machine in the lobby. It is only about a 10 minute walk to campus and 2 blocks from King St with a million bars and restaurants. I would recommend any CofC student live at 400 Meeting!

400 Meeting St Review

Very overpriced, can’t leave the lease because you agree to pay for the whole year not month by month. They make their money by advertising safety, security, and luxury for people who either have enough money that they don’t care or come from a distance and can’t visit so they go with something that looks dependable, but it is basically just overpriced student housing with poor management and no way to get out of your lease, and a lot of the rooms border Nassau street which looks very different and less safe then the pictures they advertise.

If you don’t care about money and just want an easy (fully furnished) place or have a pet it may be good for you though.

Terrible Management / Property in bad condition

The units themselves are modern and livable, but the management is terrible and the property is always a mess. Management likes to blame residents for issues in the apartment. Broken HVAC, mold growing in HVAC closet after management locked them for no reason, missing flooring in our unit, cable doesn't work, broken fridge with no refund for sopiled food, etc. The amenities that they heavily advertise are NOT what they seem - the pool is always disgusting, there is never any propane in the grill outside, there is trash all over the place, the elevator is often filled with old food or animal waste. Staff locks access to the study room on the weekends so no one can use it. They raise rent every year with no incentive to resign but will give $800 to new residents who sign. Customer services stops as soon as you sign the lease. The only reason I have stayed is convenient location. The proximity to school is wonderful, but the area isn't that safe. The neighborhood behind the apartment is not safe. Apparently a homeless man died in the bushes last year. Overall, they are terribly understaffed and unprofessional. The corporate management office isn't much better, they refuse to speak with customers about property related issues. So there's no one to go to about issues with on site management.
