Good location, fairly cheap, could use more space

Good location (about a 15 minute walk from the law school), all utilities (including high speed internet) besides electricity included. The building is old, but many of the rooms were recently renovated and look very nice inside.

During the summer there was one cockroach in my apartment, but maintenance came in the next day to apply pest control in my apartment. Both maintenance and management are prompt in responding.

The package system is not always ideal. Anything shipped through USPS arrives without an issue, but other packages (ex. through Amazon) are sometimes left in the courtyard, leaving them vulnerable. Also, there was one incident when someone hopped over the gate and took an unlocked bike that was in the courtyard, so just make sure to always lock your items and bring them inside when you can.

The space you get is definitely enough, though it is a studio and the bathroom is small.

It seems like mostly young people live in the buildings, but it is surprisingly quiet most of the time. There are even some older tenants living here as well.

Good place to live for Drexel University students

The apartment and facilities are very nice. Office and maintenance support are excellent. Rent is not low, but probably is competitive. Utilities are quite reasonable. Neighbors are generally quite friendly.

Great for students

Great value for the price. Management is responsive and even recently upgraded the internet for accommodate remote work in response to COVID. Overall, no major complaints.

Good, Not Great

My apartment is relatively old and out of the way, but management is fairly responsive and the neighborhood is relatively safe. Overall, it's one of the cheaper options for living alone.

Needs work

Expensive for the old building, needs extensive work, many cracks in the ceiling. Paint needs to be scraped as owners have contiuiuously painted over and over. But a reliable space that allows cats.

good but high price

The apartment is pretty cool with a living room along with a bathroom and a kicthen. But the price is higer than average considering its location (house nearby is $600-700 per month, comparing to 895 here). Additionaly, Drexel shuttle bus ends at 8:00 pm, which leaves me pretty worried when walking back alone. I have suffeedr several times on Lancaster ave when some guys have stopped me and asked me for money. So for that, I would not recommond you guys to live here.

good first apartment

I was barely home so it was a nice place to store things. No central air, which sucked and for the beginning of the winter the heat didn't work. It was good location for my school. I would recommend it to any other students. It was affordable and the location did just fine.
