Living in an 1bedroom-1bathroom apartment with kitchen in this building is good and safe, especially during COVID-19, but there are bugs and occasionally mice. Very close to school, Penn bookstore, restaurants, etc.

Sansom Place East is very convenient for school, grocery shopping, the trolley, etc. The staff is friendly and helpful, and organizes social events with free food and other fun activities. The building and surrounding neighborhood are very safe.

Doable place very close to campus but are pretty old. Can definitely get a better one with a cheaper price if off-campus

Sansom place East

It is very convenient because it is close to the classrooms. Maybe it is not as big or new as other apartments, Sansom is also a good choice for its convenience and safety.

Sansom is a good choice for international students for its convenience. It is close to the classrooms. Even though it is not as big or new as other apartments, its convenience and safety can compensate.

The academic year lease and the location were the most convincing factors. It's a bare-bones dorm but a great option for those not looking for a luxury or high-end apartment.

Very convenient to the law school, but state of the housing is questionable. Smoke alarm is triggered during oven use, while sauteeing, while boiling, and during hot showers. No hood/fan over stove. Windows don't fully shut. Only light in bedrooms is a lamp (cieling lighting removed/plugged). Hole in bedroom wall. Limited storage space. Heating/air conditioning very finicky, only has controls in one bedroom.

My randomly assigned roommate is not a law student, and is wonderful. RA is also wonderful.

It was built in the 70s and nothing has been improved since. It's old and shabby and pretty unpleasant.

Does the job. No complaints.
