Aspire at West End receives mixed reviews from residents and visitors. Many appreciate the community for its modern facilities, cleanliness, and friendly staff. The apartments are described as beautiful, with amenities like in-unit washers and dryers, a salon, and an indoor swimming pool. Residents enjoy a variety of activities, including exercise classes and social outings, and the staff is often praised for being attentive and caring. The dining experience is generally positive, with some noting restaurant-quality meals, although there are complaints about service delays and food quality. However, several reviews highlight significant issues, particularly with management and staff turnover. Some residents express dissatisfaction with the new director, citing high employee turnover and unresolved maintenance problems, such as air conditioning failures and pool repairs. The cost of living is a concern for many, with some finding the rent increases and mandatory meal plans too expensive. Communication between management and residents is also criticized, with reports of unmet promises and inadequate responses to maintenance issues. Despite these challenges, many residents and their families recommend Aspire at West End for its vibrant community and supportive environment. The facility's location, close to restaurants and shops, is a plus for some, though others find the surrounding area noisy. Overall, while Aspire at West End offers a range of appealing features, potential residents should weigh the positive aspects against the reported management and cost issues.

I lived there for one year and 3 months too long. At first glance it does seem livable but after one month you know many things are wrong and this is not the place you want to live in for the rest of your life. Management is poor, activities are ho-hum, if you don't have a car, you will feel like you are in jail. You never ever know what to expect with the food. It is nice having a washing machine and dryer in your apartment which is not luxury by any standards. The only great thing about this place are your fellow inmates. This complex is surrounded by a big apartment complex built in the 1960s. That makes it rather noisy BUT it is located in what I think is the best area of Richmond.
