I love living at E2! My apartment is set up great and is small, but the perfect size for one person! The staff is very friendly and helpful and the amenities are great!

Building is really nice, and has worked out some of their kinks. However issues still arise. Generally management has been responsive. Gym could be better (small) but common areas and pool deck are awesome.

E2 is one of the nicer upscale apartments. Management is not entirely flexible and is likely to raise prices but the fact that a ton of MBA students live here makes the apartments a great place to live at.

New building with nice staff and amenities. Basketball court is fun and pool is amazing during the summer. However...

Frequent internet issues/outages.
Hot tub closed early (same time as pool).
Annoying policies.
Questionable value (especially if you're not going to be there during the summer).

This apartment building is all new, has great amenities and a ton of Kellogg students. You can get a bigger apartment plus a car space for the price you pay here but overall quality will prob be lower. That said, there have been a lot of conflicts with the management. There were many WIFI issues, office room printing problems and shady payments that were unexpectedly transferred on to the renters.
Overall we enjoyed our time here - but if prices go up next year we will definitely consider moving.

Coming from NYC, E2 is a massive upgrade in terms of space and amenities (big windows, dishwasher, washer/dryer in unit). It's also a lot of fun having so many Kellogg classmates in close proximity. The pool, jacuzzi and grills in the summer were amazing. That said, the building is still ironing out some important issues (frequent internet and elevator outages) and I wish the gym was a bit bigger (to fit more than 3 people at one time). Overall, it's been great but recommend tempering expectations for the future.

The apartment is nice, amenities are good, and a lot of Kellogg lives there so it is convenient.
But:
- you have to do DirectTV, mine hasn't worked for three months, I'm still paying for it out of my rent and the management company they use for it is horrendous
- the elevators are out a few times per month.
- they don't explain how much worse the west tower is to live in - there is no front desk and packages are often left on the floor because delivery people don't know where to go. Crossing over to get your packages is time consuming and it's further from school
- they don't allow two year leases

In retrospect, i would have rented something closer to campus that doesn't have all of these problems.

Great building and excellent amenities. only complaints are that the only internet option is unreliable and slow, elevators are frequently out of service, and it takes too long to pick up packages at front desk due to insufficient staffing levels. It is also a bit loud in the summer given all the students so be ready for that. the rooms themselves are really nice and spacious, and s till giving this place an 8/10.

E2 provides a phenomenal social experience - there are a ton of different amenities (ranging from an indoor basketball court to a theater) that make it really easy to get together for everything from work to play. Rent is a bit on the pricy side, but location is great (close to campus and some of the better restaurants/bars). Management can be a bit of a stickler on some seemingly small details (e.g. specifics on what patio furniture is allowed), but they are working to adjust to Kellogg student needs.

Good: Great new places, close to campus, pet friendly, utilities (minus electric) rolled into rent. Parking garage, 12th floor great view overlooking Lake Michigan, nice hardwood floors and high ceilings, built in bluetooth speakers, great pool and outdoor space, front desk (Sandy) is an amazing, understanding person who really takes the tenants needs to heart. A real stand-up employee. Gym (altough) small is really nice, and the basketball court is a plus.

Bad: elevators constantly are breaking down, internet has been slower than expected (although recently better), directTV is not my favorite, there are some families and older couples that clearly dont like the surplus of college kids (especially at the pool when it was warm)

Ugly: they have been raising prices as more people move in. I am not looking forward to seeing what our new rent will be when we go to re-up for another year in the spring.
