Yes, they are. It’s quite the amenity
Ugh you’re kidding 😩 i was about to sign a lease there because there’s nothing else right now but i cannot handle that. I’m sorry you have to deal with it :(
Honestly, I have a love-hate relationship with Westville Village. The leasing office staff is friendly and they’ve renovated the gym and courtyard this year, which is a steal considering rental prices now. But the fire alarms are a major reason why I’m ending my lease after two years. They go off at least once every 1-2 weeks. Good luck on your search!!
Yeah, it sucks because the place seems really great otherwise! Part of me would just deal but i have a cat who I know would have a heart attack at a blaring alarm in the middle of the night. Thank you so much for your insight, and good luck finding a better option!
Wait, really? I haven’t had an alarm go off in a few weeks.
In my building it hasn't happened since they repaired some pipes 3 months ago. However, I have to say you get what you pay for: the front door of my building is broken and I'm pretty sure they won't bother repairing it, A/C units in the apartments are very old so it consumes a lot of electricity and doesn't even cool enough during the summer, maintenance doesn't show up when you put in requests so you have to look for them around the complex and ask them directly to come over.
However, with current rental prices in the area, I think it's still a good option. If you end up renting here I recommend asking to inspect the apartment before your move-in date to make sure everything's working (especially the A/C, I've heard from multiple residents that it wasn't working when they moved in) or you'll be miserable the first couple of months dealing with it.
I think it depends on which building on the property you live in, they don’t all go off simultaneously. The most recent alarm I’ve experienced was last week, during the day luckily instead of night.

I live on fountain street and I hear fire alarms sometimes at night. Not too sure where they are coming from though
