Default Moving to Tampa, need help w/ apartment option!

Hi there,
I've never posted in one of these so forgive me if these types of questions have been answered. I am looking to move within the next month-month and a half and I have been searching and searching. I am thinking of The Cove Apartments off of Westshore. I talked with the office there and it seems reasonably priced. I have read bad and good reviews online (as it is with most places). I also looked into Sweetwater Cove, which is a little bit pricier...I am looking to spend between $600-$800 a month. I am most concerned with it being a safe area for me to stay in alone. I am finished with school but still young and looking to be in the downtown Tampa area. If anyone has any suggestions about either of these places I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

The apts are older but The Cove is a nice place IMO. If you are single or just like to party there are always parties at the pool by the bay. Many of the complaints are due to mgt which can change no matter where you live. I lived there for 5 years (years ago) and saw some good managers and some bad. We made some good friends while living there. Had lots of fun too. If you are single it is a good place to meet other single people.

It is convenient to the Westshore area.

Thanks so much for the quick info. I'm single, not really looking, but definitely will be looking for friends!

Hey Jenna, if you still check this forum- I was wondering if you had checked out The Cove (or even moved there)? I am moving down in October and am going to be renting sight-unseen (wherever I decide on), so I was hoping to get your take on it?

Its pretty high on my list, but honestly, probably just because of the pool on the bay...
