University Suites

My partner and I lived at University Suites for almost 3 years. I say almost because we signed our lease to move in August 2022, and we recently moved out in June 2025. We were set to renew again, but I graduated with my Master's degree and got a job in a different part of the state. I went looking for apartments in the Cullowhee area late, so options were slim. I toured a place that made me feel unsafe, and I scrambled to contact different offices to see if there were any other options. We ended up driving to University Suites to talk with the leasing manager, and lo and behold, we found what we were looking for. A two-bedroom furnished unit, close to the school, and affordable. We ended up having the unit that was right next to the dumpster, which was convenient. Sometimes, the dumpster

University Suites was an amazing and affordable place to live. I had great experiences with Ginger and she was very helpful, gracious, and understanding. I had a lot of health issues and she was extremely kind to me. I never had issues with pests or anything, and I loved living in my studio that was furnished. It was cozy! I loved living by the dumpster because it was convenient to take trash out. I worked third shift so I was occasionally woken up by garbage trucks, but it was truly a great experience. I don't think I have anything to complain about except how I wish I stayed there! Cullowhee was so far from Asheville and from my work, so that made it hard. I left after Hurricane Helene to be closer to family, but if I ever come back to the area, I'd love to return there. It was my home w

I was hesitant to live in an apartment after living in a hell house. Surprisingly, although I’m in a four bedroom, the apartment feels much bigger and much safer. Rent is affordable and you get a lot with it. The apartment itself is in pretty decent shape. There’s in unit laundry, a kitchen, living room, and each bedroom has its own private walk in closet and bathroom. Maintenance is pretty quick to fix any issues you might have and I’ve never had any problems with management. Majority of people here respect the noise rule and it’s pretty quiet, especially during the semester. Parking is a bit tricky sometimes but there’s enough that it’s not a big deal. My only issue is that the appliances need a bit of an update but are still perfectly usable and there’s no elevators for anyone who might

The Suites and Villas are excellent. They’re my first recommendation to anyone looking for great quality and affordable student housing in Cullowhee. Every apartment I’ve lived in has been fully furnished and well maintained with reliable, updated appliances. I’ve lived at both the Suites and Villas for over 5 years. Management has always been polite and considerate of tenant needs. Maintenance has always been reliable and timely with repairs. Rent is the most fair and affordable in the area considering the quality of apartments, appliances, and the amenities provided. Amenities are always clean and well kept.

Lived here for 2 years and it was hell. When moving out no matter if you book a walkthrough or not they will charge you cleaning fees. No matter how much you clean and paint they will still charge for no reason. We cleaned/painted everything and was still charged for 2 hours of work. Asked for an itemized recite and they don’t have them. When I first moved in it was disgusting, so I know that charging us cleaning fees is for them to do nothing and get free money. They will miss charging you rent and then come after you for it months later. Reported our broken dryer multiple times for them to say that we have to turn it to maximum heat, it still did not dry our clothes. Awful and full of excuses, you’re gonna get charged the same as more expensive apartment anyway so might as well move some
