Solid Apartment, Not Great Value

We like our place. It is in a great location, right next to the 172 bus and directly above Whold Foods. Staff is nice. The gym is solid. It is pretty expensive for Hyde Park and maintenance is unreliable.

Overall Nice Building

The building has a newer feel in regard to appliances and amenities. The gym and terrace are very nice and they have programs such as free 15 cups of coffee a month which are nice perks. Overall, the building is also quiet and the rooms have quite a bit of light. Packages are handled efficiently as well. The main con is that maintenance can take a while sometimes.

Higher Price for Nice Amenities

Went to a more expensive apartment this year, and it was a good move. The apartment is spacious and amenities are nice. Downsides that even with the amenities it's pricy, the temperature is hard to control, and the lights from the high school across the street stay on all night so it can be hard to fall asleep at night. The location is perfect, though, right by a 172 stop, near 53rd street, and right above the Whole Foods.

Great place to live as a student

The building is clean and the all the facilities consistently work. The gym, parking garage, and resident lounge are great amenities that are easy to use and not over-crowded. The building is right next to several bus stops and the Metra, so it's very well-located for getting around Hyde Park and getting to downtown Chicago. Also, the actual unit is very spacious and just as I expected. The views from our living room are amazing!

Good

I really like living here. The place feels organized and secure. With two other roommates it does not cost me too much. I like that it has a gym and easy access to transportation.

The Law School NEEDS to do a better job letting students know about this property

- Right on the 172 bus line (just a 15 min ride to the law school)
- Right above a Whole Foods (I can go to the grocery store without going outside), and a direct 5 min walk to Trader Joe's
- Cheaper than Shoreland Apartments, which the Law School advertises to new students
- Incredibly nice staff, events, etc.
- Beautiful rooms
- Right next to all the restaurants on 53rd St.
- Can also pay for parking

Great Property, Not Cheap

I definitely recommend CHP, but it is probably more expensive than many Hyde Park apartments. Our apartment is big and we have never had big problems. The electricity is extra and parking adds a lot to the cost too. Washer/dryer and dishwasher in-unit are great, and the AC is strong.

Location is ideal for the 172 line and proximity to Whole Foods, especially for the winter.

We get a ton of light in the apartment because of the big windows, but it is odd that there are no light fixtures in the ceiling in the den (might be the biggest drawback, along with relatively thin walls). The staff is great, and it is nice to be ensured that your packages are secured by the front desk. Management could be more responsible, but that is typical for MAC.

City Hyde Park - Overall good, except the rent

The apartment is clean and spacious. The management is good as well. Location is good, as it is both near to law school, near to other apartments the classmates live, and also right above the supermarket.
The only downside is the monthly rent, which is very expensive compared to other buildings.

Hyde Park Reviews

I like Hyde Park. I'm close to everything on 53rd, and most of the time I don't feel unsafe. I'm also close enough to Kenwood that I can walk/run there for a more quiet, less busy experience. Kenwood Park is the best.
There's nothing that compares to being in the neighborhood that UChicago is in. Great restaurants and access to the world class lakefront
I like living in Hyde park- it's close to the law school, and I have all the shops and things I need around.
I really enjoy living in Hyde Park. I love how residential and clean it is. It's a great place to go on walks and explore the beautiful historic houses throughout the area. Yet, it still has plenty of restaurants and places to go. It's nice to live in this residential area close to the Law School and still be only a 20-minute uber away from downtown. Safety is something I think about a lot, but this comes with living in any big city. I try to avoid walking alone at night and walk in groups whenever possible. I never have my music blasting. I also carry my pepper spray and keys in my hand at all times when I'm out walking.
Very close to "downtown" Hyde Park so pretty much everything is around you. Transportation to the University of Chicago is also really close by. So are several CTA bus stops and the Metra. There are several restaurants, grocery stores, and shops close by. The building is truly located in a great place.

There have been very few issues with crime and gun violence around the area but like in every major city, being vigilant is important. I have not been too worried about safety but I am careful because things do happen.
Hyde park isn't the most convenient place to live in Chicago, but it is the most convenient place to get to University of Chicago. At times it may not feel like the safest area, but personally I have never experienced any issues. The commute to school is pretty easy, give or take the accuracy of the bus times.
It's got everything you need. Biggest thing is obviously the proximity to campus.
I love living in Hyde Park, you can view lots of beautiful scenery and easily access to the Loop area for entertainment.
Though Hyde Park is safer area compared to the nearby, needless to say, you should be careful not to walk alone in the nighttime.
