No bugs, quick repairs, doorguys are great and staff are wonderful, package room makes a difference - I know deliveries will be safe, shuttle service in the am is invaluable.
Great size for cost, gym in basement is great.
I took advantage of parking, cheapest around. Close to center city, close to campus, right on the Penn Bus route.

I feel safe here. Apartments could use some updating, but overall, 10/10 experience. Lived by myself in apartments for the past 5 years, 2400 has been by far the best experience.

There are tons of Penn grad students living here, and for good reason. It's not the newest building, but they just replaced all the windows and the amenities are nice - doorman 24/7, free laundry and gym, shuttle that takes you to campus in the morning (though it leaves too late for most clinical rotations). It's across the river so you have all the convenience of living in Center City but it's close to the Penn hospitals.

I believe 2400 Chestnut is the most convenient building for Wharton student. The apartment has shuttle bus service to school, has low rate monthly parking spot, has cable TV channel, and has a so-so gym, etc.
About location, it locates next to 2401 Walnut (I can get there in 3 mins from my bed.), about 10 minutes away from Rittenhouse square and many places Wharton people will meet, close to TJ's and Rite-Aid, and less than 10 minutes away from 30th station, etc.
The building is little bit old but condition is good. So if you want to live "practical" and "convenient" place, 2400 Chestnut is good option.

- Central location between campus and Rittenhouse square
- Amenities kept in good condition and no major complaints but nothing spectacular
- Nice features - internet and cable (moderate quality) included, doorman 24/7, gym
- Mostly grad students (med, law, business schools) - offers 21 month leases
- Average bang for your buck

It is a very good location in the middle of everything. Gym is ok. Dormans are great. Apartments are good value.

Management is very responsive and people at the front desk are very nice. However the building is rather old, as a consequence it is does not insulate heat very well. The cabinets should be replaced.

This place is the best. The management/maintenance are responsive. There are great free laundry rooms on each floor. Doormen are fantastic and friendly (know your name). Facebook community is helpful. FREE van Shuttle to Campus in the mornings. Lots of Penn Med/Law/Wharton students here.

Building shuttle to and from school, gym with extended hours, free rental for garden patio, conference room, free laundry, and inexpensive parking and rent add up to a great deal. Because this building is 5 minutes further away from Rittenhouse than other buildings, the monthly rent is hundreds of dollars cheaper. However, it's literally right by 2401 Walnut and Schuylkill river park. It's also closer to campus, Penn park, etc. than most other Wharton-heavy buildings, save for RiverLoft. Usually, more than 40-50 Wharton students live here each year, so frequent dinner parties are a great way to meet your neighbors.

2400 Chestnut is a great apartment building that has 33 floors and about 12 apartments on each floor. It is located in Centre City but is very close to University City. The building offers great value and even has a free university shuttle service that is very helpful in the winter. There are about 30-40 Wharton students staying in the building right now. There are two drawbacks - washer/dryers are on every floor so need to shared, and there is no official "lounge" area in the building. It is right by the river and offers spectacular views! Would I move elsewhere after 1st yr? No.

Pros:
1) 2400 Chestnut is located midway between the school and Rittenhouse square, and is right next to the river for those who are interested in going for long runs along the river trail.
2) Fantastic management that is always supportive and reasonably responsive to requests. 3) The doormen are friendly and are a big help in attending to your requests as well.

Cons:
This is not a high ceiling building which some of the brownstone or other fancier apartment buildings can offer.
