Regents Park is convenient for LLMs because many of us live there. The gym is ok, the laundry is ok too. However, a few of us have had problems with the concierge misplacing deliveries, so every now and then there are stories of people not receiving their packages.

There are pros and cons to living in Regent Park. The perks are a spacious room, a great view, and completed amenities. The maintenance here is a bit slow. It's OK if you are patient. I also found small roaches in the kitchen (which a pest control came to help with) and got a smell from a neighbor when they cooked (they opened their door = =''). Overall, it's overpriced, but being able to be surrounded by your law school friends is a plus! My concern before signing the contract was the carpeting floor, but it turned out to be better and I didn't have any allergy issues living here.

I think the facilities are OK. However, there have been at least three instances of shooting (I've only lived there for three months), and it is far from the law school (30-minute walk or 15-20 minute bus ride, several stops, and traffic impact ETAs)

Generally, the apartment is good. Though, one can see that it hasn’t been renovated for a long time.

Regents apartment is a convenient solution for international students. I would not recommend it to couples and even less to families.

Regents is a good place to live while you do the LLM, comparatively speaking. The place is old and it kinda smells, but it's close to the bus, 53rd, and other students, which makes it safer than being somewhere on your own. They do try to attend to maintenance, though it can be slow. It's spacious, warm and dry. The gym is a bit bare and run down, but you can get a workout in. The laundry works fine, though not for white clothes.

Good, but could be better

I decided to live in this apartment because many classmates from my program traditionally live here. Because many people live in this apartment, the elevators are slow and packages get lost sometimes. I see some criminal reports inside and outside of this building. The location is very convenient for grocery shopping and transportation to school and downtown, but I will not choose here if you will be here for a long term.

Lots of students live here - management and neighbors are nice. Laundry, utilities, parking, location all super convenient. You can definitely find cheaper and better quality housing in Hyde Park, but for busy grad students the convenience is worth it for us.

I really like my apartment in general. My favorite part is the view. I took a corner apartment at the South Tower and wake up everyday to see the sunrise in Lake Michigan from huge windows at my room and the living room. I am not sure I will ever live in a place with such an amazing view.

The building has everything you need; gym, market, package room, concierge. In winter, when it is freezing outside, this is very convenient. Also, most of our class lives here, so we go to dinners, parties and reunions without going out of the building.

Another very convenient part of regents is transportation. In the spring quarter we had an LLM class at 8:15 am and we all met in the bus stop and went in the 172 to class together. It was kind of a high school bus experience. :-D. The 6, which goes to downtown, is also available in that stop.
