Who This Residence Suits
West Run may work well for you if:
- You are looking for a low entry price. The starting rent of $425 (indicative) matches the city from‑price, so it can be a cost‑conscious choice if you share a larger unit.
- You value a friendly on‑site team. One reviewer, Kyle Perry, gave 4 stars and wrote: “Very helpful and friendly staff; never had an issue. Both leasing office and maintenance are professional, friendly, and welcoming. The apartments themselves are suitable and comfortable for the price.”
- You have a car or don’t mind a commute. The property is about a 20‑minute drive from campus (per a review). If you prefer a quieter living environment away from the immediate campus bustle, this could be acceptable.
- You are planning to live with 2–3 roommates. The available unit types – 2‑bedroom, 3‑bedroom, and 4‑bedroom – allow you to split costs among multiple people.
Who It Does Not Suit
West Run may not be suitable if:
- You need reliable, fast internet. Multiple reviews flag WiFi issues. Morganne Sparks wrote: “EDIT: Do not live here, plain and simple. The WiFi continues to go off and on and no matter they tell you they lie. I’ve called multiple times about the WiFi and they always say it’s fine. As a college student I would suggest living somewhere that has reliable internet especially if you’re online like I am.” Similarly, Kyle Perry’s positive review ended with “The only issue is with Single Digits, t” (the comment cuts off, suggesting an unresolved internet provider problem).
- You prefer walking distance or a short bus ride to campus. Yustin Auong rated the property 1 star and noted it is a 20‑minute drive from campus. That distance may be inconvenient without a car.
- You had a poor experience with management. Yustin Auong strongly advises against the property: “Absolutely do not waste your money on these people. I promise you that you can find a better situation for similar amounts of money. … It’s one of my biggest regrets ever.” While this is one review, its tone suggests a risk of dissatisfaction.
- You are an online learner or rely heavily on a stable internet connection. The WiFi complaints appear in both low‑rated reviews and are echoed indirectly in the higher‑rated one.
What Residents Actually Say
Below are verbatim excerpts from the three Google reviews provided with the data. They illustrate both positive and negative experiences.
Kyle Perry (Rating 4)

These comments highlight two recurring concerns: internet reliability and distance from campus. The positive review focuses on staff helpfulness and value for money, but also mentions an unresolved issue with “Single Digits” (likely the internet provider). Prospective residents should weigh these reports carefully.
Price Positioning and Room‑Type Guidance
- Price range: $425–$695 per month (indicative – confirm with the operator).
- City from‑price: $425 – the starting price of West Run aligns with the lowest listed price in Morgantown.
- Unit types: 2‑bedroom, 3‑bedroom, and 4‑bedroom apartments. Pricing per unit is not broken down by room type in the data; typically, the lower end of the range ($425) applies to a share in a larger unit (e.g., a 4‑bedroom), while private or smaller units cost more. You should ask the operator for specific rates per floor plan.
Because West Run is the only student housing property listed for Morgantown on this platform, you cannot directly compare it with other options here. However, the data suggest it occupies the lower price tier for the city. If you are on a strict budget, a shared 4‑bedroom unit could be the most affordable choice. If you prefer more privacy, a 2‑bedroom unit will cost more.
Booking Timing and Availability
The available move‑in date is 14 August 2026. Morgantown’s student housing supply appears limited (only one property listed), so demand may be concentrated. To secure a unit for the August 2026 term, consider starting your search early – ideally several months in advance. Lease terms and minimum lease lengths are not provided in the data; confirm these directly with the operator when you inquire.
Tips:
- Contact the property to verify current availability for each room type.
- Ask about the specific internet provider and any history of connectivity issues.
- Clarify deposit requirements (the data show “null” – no amount is recorded).
- Request a tour or remote viewing if possible, especially given the mixed reviews.
