The apartment is modern, central and convenient. 24 hours porter, the management company fixes things if they are broken in the apartment. I am very happy with it.

Great place to stay but expensive to live at. Lots of Wharton students, great location, and convenient to get around the city.

Wanamaker has been great so far - the building is in such a convenient location, the doormen are incredibly friendly and helpful. I also love living in a building with so many other students. I'm constantly running in to people and it's easy to coordinate meeting up, whether its for group projects or social activities.
(Note that I rent directly from my landlord, so don't have to deal with the management company)

I really enjoy the Wanamaker building. Here's a run-down of my pros(+)/cons(-):
+ Excellent location close to campus and close to Rittenhouse activities. I feel like I'm at the center of everything.
+ Social atmosphere with lots of Wharton students in the building. Great for building relationships and Ubering to campus.
+ Relatively affordable -- feels like a good value
+ Good neighborhood amenities: Revolution Taco, Irish Pub, Vernick an upscale bar and a few other bar options are all across the street; several dry cleaners <1 block away; 7-Eleven <2 blocks away, the other major apartment buildings are all nearby; Rittenhouse Park is 1 block away
+ Management is pretty hands-off, but they're institutional so imagine they would be responsive with anything needed
+ Excellent views of the city if you're on a higher floor
+ Gym is functional but not great -- if you're a workout buff this won't cut it
+ Rooftop with pool is great for socializing in the warm months of the year
- Fully immersed in the "Wharton bubble". You can definitely get your quiet time in your apartment, but you are almost always going to run into someone you know coming in/out.
- Older building with wide variance in unit quality. Some have old carpets, tired finishes, etc.
- Walls are thin (problematic if you have a roommate or a penchant for playing loud music)
- Utility bills are unusually high

Lot to love:
1. Great location and nice view
2. Spacious for a studio!
3. Quick repair / maintenance service
4. 24/7 doormen who are delightful
5. Many students to share rides with to campus, lend/borrow emergency (and random) items from, etc.
6. Well organized (events, there is always someone at the lobby and front door, common areas are kept clean)
7. Great communication and easy payments with landlord
8. Online system is efficient

Could improve:
1. Unit should be cleaned and repaired (if necessary) before new tenant comes in ...make an obligation for landlords managing condo units
2. Windows shake with strong winds, making noise
3. Could have a common area to read, work, print, etc

Great apartment and location for the price. Lots of other Wharton people in the building. Deal with Comcast for cable is a good value. Nice to have a gym on days when it's cold, rainy, or you're in a hurry. The people at the front desk are amazing. Maintenance is responsive and thorough. No dogs is nice. Quiet building.

Rooms overlooking Walnut may hear the trash being collected in the mornings. It's noisy. Also, some of the bay windows are noisy when the wind is blowing.

I've loved living at the Wanamaker. The location has been excellent and although not one of the newer buildings in the area, the building is well maintained and has been a great place to live.

Great experience at Wanamaker House - doormen and maintenance staff are incredibly friendly and very responsive. Lots of Wharton students in the building which is nice. Location is amazing - close to Rittenhouse Square but only a 20-30 min walk to campus. Would recommend!

Packages system could be run better. There are limits on when you can pick up packages and the system is not totally digitized / reliable. Can't have late parties. Skimpy on repairs in apartment - we are often charged for lightbulbs and things. Restrictions on when cars can park outside of Wanamaker so it's not always easy to get food deliveries.

No real complaints other than the fact that the building doesn't allow you to sublet during the summer.
