I enjoy living at Social West Ames. It’s fairly priced and the amenities are great. The only complaints I have are regarding noise and occasional difficulty paying rent. I live in Steinbeck right near South Dakota Ave, so it gets very loud with cars and buses. For paying rent, sometimes extra fees are strangely added on that I have to work with the office to get removed and it occasionally deletes my payment info which takes a bit to set back up. Other than these things, I think it’s a good first/college apartment with good amenities.
Property Manager at The Social West Ames®, Responded To This Review

Maintenence requests are fixed in a timely manner and utilities are nice. Walls are also thick so you cannot hear your neighbors much. Events hosted by the complex happen with little warning, so they are hard to attend.

We’re glad to hear that maintenance requests are handled quickly and that you enjoy the utilities and the sound insulation. We are always looking for ways to improve, so we will take your feedback about event scheduling into consideration.
The space is nice and the price is very fair for what you get, the only thing is maintenance requests take an abnormally long amount of time and sometimes aren’t fixed the first time around.
Property Manager at The Social West Ames®, Responded To This Review

Been pretty disappointed with how concerns are being handled. Haven’t been able to get straight answers or many things done. Hoping things improve soon.
Love the amenities and the apartment. I wish that maintenance was faster when we have issues that need to be addressed quickly such as an AC that went out at the end of June when it was 90 degrees outside.

When moving here I was extremely nervous to live with a stranger and in a town that I barely know. I was matched with a nice and quiet roommate and have been slowly getting to know the town better.

The apartment complex has nice amenities. The rooms are spacious. I also like the garage feature. The problem areas, maintenance and updating the units. The staff are about average, nothing special about the team.

Maintenance came fast for the few requests we made. The gym is pretty nice and available 24/7. I've never been to any, but The Social always posts community events for residents to go to. My one complaint was the amount of spiders in my apartment.

Maintenance is frustratingly slow but otherwise the experience has been fine enough. I put in a request to fix something over two weeks ago and it has yet to be fixed or even recieve any communication regarding it. Besides that though, rent is affordable and the location while far from campus is fairly quiet and the rooms are quite sizable.

Such a fun and clean living space. I have enjoyed my time so far and I can’t wait to see how else this goes. I love the amenities that are offered
It’s my first year here at the social wear Ames. My favorite thing so far about Steinbeck specifically has been the small community. Everyone in my building is very sweet and kind.

Sometimes it good here but I don’t think management or maintenance get back in a timely manner. They are good to you the first year you’re here but after that they don’t care about you just your money. Management especially doesn’t care about you. You can try to talk to them about something but they won’t respond because they just don’t care!

Living in the social for three years has been an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, I found myself immersed in a vibrant, close-knit community that became like a second family. The modern amenities and thoughtfully designed spaces provided the perfect environment for both relaxation and productivity. I loved how everything from study areas to social events was crafted to encourage connection and creativity. The friendships I formed and the memories we created, whether during spontaneous late-night conversations or shared meals, have made these years some of the best of my life.

As of my third week here, I would say it is a medium quality housing option for college aged people, pretty nice amenities, good communication from facilities staff, nice distance from campus, and easily accessible online portal for resources and payments.

I absolutely love it at The Social! I am from a small town about 3 hours away in Eastern Iowa and The Social felt like home almost instantly. The staff is very friendly and helpful with every step of the process and the facilities are amazing. Very pet friendly, my 2 dogs love the dog park and all of the grassy areas surrounding all of the buildings!

I haven't really gone to any events that have been held due to working or school. Although they sound like fun, they are always during times I am unable to attend. If a survey was sent out for availability, I feel more people would be able to attend.

Apartment seems nice, but the office is very disorganized. Sending out ammendments to my lease the day I move in and overselling floorplans are two examples of problems that could easily be fixed with better organization.
