Perfect location, solid gym, mailroom, etc. All utilities included. It's not as new as the other luxury buildings, but still quite nice. All condos so very unit specific

Very Nice Building - Experience Varies by Landlord
Units in this building are owned by different landlord. Mine is great and I have had no issues with the building itself, I only wish it had bike storage.

You get what you pay for
The Riverwest Condos are good, not great. There is a gym, it is small. There is a common area, there are no windows. The apartments are average sized and relatively cheap. Each unit is individually owned so each is rented out at different rates with different responsiveness. I've only had good experiences with my landlords though I can see how it could differ from condo to condo. The front desk staff are the nicest humans in the world! They take care to memorize the residents so that security is not an issue. The location is amazing - equidistant between Bonners and Drinkers, around the corner from pub.

Most cost effective given location
Riverwest is one of the most cost-effective buildings to live in. If you don't care about amenities (e.g. mediocre gym, no pool) and don't mind the oldness of the building, it's the cheapest place you can get while living by yourself or with one roommate.
Do keep your drains always covered though. Because the building is old, you don't want roaches to crawl through the drain on the odd occassion

Great but noisy neighborhood
The apartment is renewed and furnished. Also very spacious and sunny. Not great soundproofing esp. from the windows, which is an issue given that the neighborhood is busy and noisy sometimes

Great value
Living in this part of the city and being close enough to walk to Penn's campus is great for the amount of rent I pay.

Convenient, but a lot of apartment issues
This building is a co-op, so I cannot speak to the other units. Overall, I love the location and love the front desk staff. It is affordable for me. The gym has what I need, but is not particularly nice. My specific unit has had several issues- leaking ceiling, clogged sinks, etc. that took a while to repair. But that is the responsibility of my owner and would vary from unit to unit. Overall its been a good experience with a few hiccups!

Bare bones amenities but spacious
The building itself is a bit older and bare bones but there is a small rec center and business center. The apartment itself is pretty spacious. 1 bed/1 bath, 640 sq ft. Rent includes all utilities. Two wall AC units (one for each room). Two laundry facilities in the building so I’ve never competed for laundry. Perfect location between Bonners and Drinkers, across from 2116 for all your partying needs but without the rent markup. Overall, it’s a great bang for buck.

Fitler Square Reviews
That being said I did notice that most students lived on the side of the school!
There are residents without housing in the neighborhood. They're good people and new residents should be respectful of them and their belongings.
Cons: Trader Joe's is the only real grocery store here and may have limited selection for those looking for a supermarket; not as quiet or "neighborhood-y" as other areas, as it is in the heart of downtown; there is a freight train that runs along the river that can be loud, though I got used to it quickly
