This is my third apartment complex in the past 3 years, and it is by far my favorite. Management are not only friendly but incredibly responsive. The location of the property relative to downtown Durham and Brightleaf is great. Also, while the rent is not "cheap", relative to other 1 BR, 1 BA apartment complexes in the same Durham area, it is one of the cheaper options.

It’s fine. Nice unit but kind of isolated. Amenities are kind of subpar too.

Amazing location in the heart of it all!

Love living here. Not too loud and good amenities

For the most part, I really like living in my apartment complex. It is close to downtown and the university. I like the amenities here. The staff are responsive and ready to fix any problem that we have. The are renovating the building so that is a bit of an annoyance.

It's convenient because of its location, its amenities and its staff.
However, works were carried out throughout the year, this was a bit disturbing. Many times, the amenities were out of service. Renting month-by-month is not an option, it's super expensive that way.

Great location convenient to American tobacco, downtown, and a 5 minute drive to school/hospitals. Management is decent and maintenance is fantastic. Apartment is really nice, mine is also one of the bigger 1 bedrooms, so prices are likely less than I said.

We chose to live at 605 West End after a thorough apartment search of all the different neighborhoods and communities. When we leased, the management company had changed over that same weekend, so I think rent prices may have increased slightly, but it still seems to be lower than many of the surrounding buildings. As a result, the new company has been doing renovations to the building common areas which have really elevated the atmosphere.

It is a perfect location to get to Fuqua (~8 minute drive) and the 9th street area, and we can walk almost anywhere downtown. Parking is included and there are plenty of spots.

Our biggest complaint would be that sometimes maintenance seems to take their time with getting to our tickets, but if we call and follow up with the office, they seem to get handled ASAP. Additionally, the closets aren't huge in either bedroom, and same with kitchen cabinets, but we were able to work through this with some storage containers under the bed and purchasing a simple rolling kitchen island.

Poor internet connection, which we could not choose the service provider. It has not been improved and still risks the access to important events such as job interviews.

The facility is nice. I wish I had known that the age demographic is on the older side, because I value being able to spend time with other Duke students.
