Avondale - Decatur, Georgia

I enjoy living in this quiet community with its park-like setting. Older apartments have real hardwood floors, large closets and rooms (kitchens are small but functional) and plenty of green space. Management hosts events like movie nights by the fire pit, food trucks, holiday gatherings, pool parties and contests with prizes.

Pet friendly, nice diversity of neighbors and great location.

The apartment wasn't as nice as the one we toured initially. There is a lot of paint peeling in the bathroom on the tiles and in the bathtub. Once we moved in I noticed a lot of obvious "quick fixes" in the bathroom and kitchen. We rented this unit for the washer and dryer hookups not knowing there was no place to vent the dryer. Seems pretty dangerous especially since it is in very close proximity to our hot water heater (that is outdated) and gas furnace; which both look sketchy as hell and dirty.
I love the community garden and landscaping but I sometimes feel like my apartment is just gross. The amount of grease and grime on the kitchen cabinets - the carelessly nailed in plywood bottoms of our kitchen drawers. There is no vent for the oven (which is ALSO in close proximity to our furnace and hot water heater).

This Marta station is simply amazing to say the least! I got off of one of the busses and was rushing to make the train. I just bought a new bike, so it's still new to me having it. Well, I got off of the bus, and I accidentally forgot my bike on the front of the bus. Thankfully, I missed the train. Since I did, the bus driver actually came and found me to come tell me to do come get my bike off the front of the bus. That in my opinion, is the epitome of excellent customer service! He told me his name, but I accidentally forgot. However, he drives the route 120 bus, is an African American gentleman, about 6' 1" tall, average build, and has short black hair. Also, he's extremely nice, and very cool! Thank you to this bus driver and MARTA as well! You guys are awesome!

Great so far. Wish I would have gotten the ladies name that assisted me worth the ticket, she was wonderful. I have not been on Marta is a very long time. This is great. Headed north for dinner with friends and did not want to deal with 5 o clock traffic. Avondale is a very clean and friendly station.

Beautiful area, great neighbors, good management, low noise levels, great price. I really hope the rent never gets raised because I want to stay here until I get settled and buy a house.

JUST EXPERIENCED THE WORST BUS DRIVER I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED OUT OF MY 15+ years riding Marta. She worked this day driving bus 117 Sunday afternoon shift had just started around 4pm. Wasn't able to get her name but hopefully this info is enough. Her attitude was beyond horrible to be the start of a shift

I have been traveling to Avondale Station for over a decade....but my current experience is beyond dreadful. It is currently 6:57 p.m. I have been waiting on Route 114, the slowest bus on MARTA for over a hour. One of the fellow MARTA passengers told me the 114 was coming at 6:28 p.m. Lo and behold it is currently 7 p.m.....no 114 has shown yet. The other buses here have shown up 3 times or more since I have been here. The fellow passenger asked MARTA employees to see if they could find out what the delay was, and ot seems as if they don't want to do their job! A negative 100 from me.

I actually wanted to give them NO stars but the only way to give a review is to at least click a star to give a review. I am new to Atlanta and the marta system and I don't like the customer service one bit. I was getting on the bus and the driver didn't explain to me that I had to buy a card 1St then load money on it after I told him I was riding for the 1st time. He allowed me to put cash in and didn't give me a card. His reponse was that it wasn't his fault that i didn't know and that I had to pay at every stop until i got to my destination. Furious isn't the right word for how angry i was. I proceeds to ask several marta employees if something could be done. I received no help an mind you i am not from here and i am lost. This has really left a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to marta an its unprofessional employees
