4-minute walk to Ross, convenient location, responsive management, have had no issues.

Close to University

This place is a solid deal for the location. It's a 5 minute walk to Ross and only about 15 min to downtown. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby. Apartment is moderately updated but nothing fancy. Management is very responsive on maintenance requests. Service is usually performed same day. We even got a new oven within one day after ours stopped working. Rent also includes one free parking space, which is rare for Ann Arbor.

The building is less than 5 minutes from Ross and about 10-15 from downtown. The apartment is a good size but the kitchen is very small and the building is on the older side.

Pros: In comparison with other properties it's affordable (comes to about $813 per person in 2016-17 year plus additional $50-100 for internet and electricity). It's extremely close to the business school (only a 5 minute walk) which is great for winter. Furnished and building is in decent condition.
Cons: Can be quite loud on weekends and evenings since there are undergrads and frat houses surrounding. Only two washers and dryers for the entire building and they are frequently broken. Hallway often smells like pot and there seems to be no insulation so the units get quite cold in the winter unless you are willing to pay to blast the heat.
Overall: Good for students who are budget-conscious and want to be near law school/business school, and are willing to put up with noise and some inconvenience.

Old but super convenient

Oxford manages several properties but doesn't have adequate manpower in their office. Getting anything administrative done takes a long time and several follow-up calls. However, the location to Ross is very good, even though the inside of the building is quite run down. I live in a 4 bdrm/2 bath with roommates. Two people share one bathroom. The kitchen is small, and the fridge is definitely too small. They could have placed a larger one in the space. There is no A/C on the first floor (which is a problem in the months of Aug-Sept (maybe Oct) but there are individual units upstairs in the 3 bedrooms. There is heat throughout, but it's electric. It comes with 1 parking spot, so 1 roommate pays more for a slightly larger room and parking spot. We have had several maintenance issues, but that staff is very responsive.

It's close to school, not in a converted 1920's family home, and way more affordable than the brand new buildings. The landlord is usually good but occasionally hit or miss. Laundry could use some work. Big, comfy and quiet, at least by New York standards.

The building is quite old, and noisy because it's close to the main road and some undergraduate students have noisy parties on Thursday and weekends. There are only two washers and driers for all the residents. But otherwise it is a good choice, especially close to Ross.

Old building that often smells but after your first 4 1/2 minute walk to Ross, you'll be happy you live so close. Oxford is fine to deal with but the maintenance staff is amazing and fixes issues quickly. This is not a bad place for the price, location and ease.
