I would recommend Westgate if you’re looking for an apartment complex in West Hartford with a good location, general safety, and walk-ability. Although I believe my unit was slightly overpriced for the amenities received, the Westgate staff is a pleasure to work with. One of the leading consultants, Mina, is so welcoming and accommodating! She was able to help meet the housing needs of my roommate and I while in a rotational job. Thank you, Westgate!

I have to say so far my experience with Westgate has been pleasurable. We are in between homes and needed a place to stay for upward of 9 months. We toured Westgate as an option. The site was clean, the apartments were well maintained the the staff were excellent. The application and lease process was easy and smooth. We are looking forward to our move-in and will follow up again once we are in.
Steer clear of this place. As a resident of this complex for about 5 years, the quality of the accommodations and management have degraded in a compounding manner over this time. In my experience, this complex has gone from a decent and reasonable community in a fantastic town, to what appears to be a well oiled enterprise more focused on increasing their bottom-line above all else. The complex is old and I have seen numerous situations where things break and are then just \patched up\; this can be seen just by walking through one of the common hallways and looking up at the ceiling. This was just the tip of the iceberg of what I experienced. At the beginning of the pandemic when we were heading into \lockdown\, I expressed to management that I needed more flexible options with the lease renewal as my current lease was coming to expiration. Given the lack of written notice from management regarding the lease renewal (60 days), I exercised my right for the lease to default to a month-to-month term (written in contract) which was desirable given the uncertain times we were facing in the pandemic. A few days after the lease defaulted to a month-to-month term and I had already provided a rent check for that month, the property manager Sarah left me a physical letter stating that I would have to pay late fees of 10% (on the base rent provided that month) as well as a \month-to-month fee\ of 10% every month thereafter. The bottom-line, this complex is located in a great area in a phenomenal town, but there are much better options in the area.
I grew up in West Hartford and graduated from Conard High in 1986. I returned to town and officially became a resident again this past February---four weeks before the pandemic hit us in March, 2020. I have been blown away at how wonderful a community this has been, and have met fabulous new neighbors and fellow dog walkers. I absolutely love my apartment, and walking convenience to grocery store, drug store, coffee and pizza shops, The Center, and bus lines. I am so impressed with how staff and maintenance have taken care of both residents and property during a challenging year of global issues as well as when a dramatic summer storm resulted in damaged property--which was rectified within a short time--during a statewide loss of electrical power for several days. It is nice to know someone is on call 24/7. I have enjoyed watching the four seasons change in front of my large windows--and look forward to seeing the fabulous gardens again next spring. I particularly enjoy listening to the brook nearby behind my unit during stressful days in 2020. I am so thankful I chose this apartment complex above all others in the area. My rescue dog agrees :)
I have been living at Westgate for a year and a half now and have really enjoyed my experience! The apartments are spacious and clean with great amenities! The staff has been great as well! In particular, Amina, the Leasing Consultant at Westgate, has gone above and beyond with her hospitality and willingness to make me feel at home.
