Alight West Lafayette offers quality-for-the-dollar apartments near Purdue, with good community amenities. The apartments come with nice furnishings and very good internet. Residents only pay for electricity, which averages a reasonable cost. The staff is generally helpful, responsive, and consistent, with quick responses on work orders. Maintenance requests are addressed without a long wait. There is flexible parking and new kitchen appliances, though some installation issues can occur. Some residents report occasional random charges that require clarification at the office. The location has a distance from campus, which can be difficult on weekends despite bus service. The apartments are not luxury, and the supplied mattresses can be stiff. Overall, experiences vary, but many find it a good place with seamless living for the price.
I tried different housings in West Lafayette and my experience with the management at Alight was by far the worst. Not a good housing experience overall

This apartment complex is a joke. The management is ridiculous and will decide to charge you for random stuff whenever they want to without notice. I’m currently trying to be told how to decorate my porch. I wouldn’t recommend living here. My rent has also gone up every year I’ve lived here and resigned a lease. Insane.

I’ve been staying here for a while and it’s been great. The management team is super helpful and maintenance issues are usually taken care of quickly. The community is peaceful and the amenities are nice too! I’d highly recommend this place for the ones looking for housing!
