If you are in the position I was in 2 years ago and looking for a place to live in Athens this upcoming fall, do not, I repeat DO NOT live at Lakeside apartments on the east side. During the year, I never got anything done from them, light in my room to the bathroom, never replaced any of the old crappy furniture, and bugs were everywhere, needless to say as much as I love Athens, I hated Lakeside even more.
A month after moving out, I get a bill in the mail telling me that I owed them couple of hundred dollars, this included washing the mirror (who the hell washes a mirror that is already clean) and charging me for crappy things that I had never gotten them to take care of. I didn't pay so they transfer me to this ghetto debt collection agency in Atlanta, I received few calls from them and each time I asked them to justify it, they hung up on me and threatened me to have put all of that on my credit history.
I have made some not so wise decisions in my time here in Athens, but Lakeside was the worst. So do yourself a favor and do not even think about living at Lakeside Apartments in Athens, Ga, by far the worst people and apartments in Georgia.
Crappy as it gets.
Word of Advice: Live on the streets if you have to.
