Cheap! But beware.

This is a very old building that has some problems but is very well located. (Pluming issues, heating doesn't work properly, we've seen rats, etc) On the other hand, the lease price is low compared to other newer buildings so If you are in a tight budget it's good. The management is very unfriendly and they are not truthful. We've asked several times for them to fix stuff and they don´t show up and later they say that they did fixed it. /

Great value if you don't mind an old building

Simple building, has not been refurbished recently but good value for price. Some pest issues, but management company is responsive.

Very cheap, but lots of old building issues

The price is affordable, but the building is old and has several problems: - Mice - Heating is too hot (really too hot, like a sauna and I am Brazilian) in some apartments and too cold in others - No cold water in my kitchen sink - Among others.

Great value IF you find the right unit.

The residence is pretty old, which means that it is both somewhat charming, but also somewhat run-down. Everything hinges upon the specific unit you get: some units are really nice and come at an incredible rate (particularly the "executive studios"), while other units are so nice (particularly the actual studios). I just recently started to see cockroaches, although management was very quick to send in an exterminator when I complained. Location is ideal- a little off Rittenhouse Square, but on the side that is closer to campus. Building has some Wharton students but is not overrun with them like the Claridge or 1500 Locust.

Perfect location and very affordable rent.

Perfect location and very affordable rent. However, the management company is not very responsive and can be slow to fix maintenance issues, which has been a problem since the building is really old. Some of my classmates in other units have had issues with mice and cockroaches.

Great place - but check your water before you lease!

For the price it's great (cheap and almost 600 square foot alcove studio). Very cute old building. However, the water is terrible. My shower hasn't worked correctly in two years. Temperature alternates between cold and scalding nonstop. Their plumber has looked at it many times and the answer is always "weird. I don't know why it's doing that." I've spoken to other tenants and they have similar complaints. /

The cheapest doorman building you'll find in the best location, but rooms are small and building's old

The management company is a pain in the ass to deal with- the women are really "helpful" until you sign and then turn into pumpkins. The apartments are some of the cheapest you'll find in a doorman building in CC, but you get what you pay for- it's a very old building. The heating system is a noisy old radiator (although nice that heat is included!), the bathroom isn't in great shape, the "kitchenette" is pretty minimal (large fridge, small sink and ovenstovetop)- the studio is very tiny (~300sqft). Positives are great water pressure, very friendly and helpful doormen, great location, hardwood floors, close to 2401 and basically everywhere else so I just don't spend a lot of time in the apartment.

Make sure you check your unit before renting

Bathrooms are old, visit the exact unit you are considering renting and pay special attention to the bathroom (rusted tub, broken cabinets) /

Old building with maintenance issues, but can't beat the location

Older building but relatively cheaper than most apartment buildings in the area. Great location close to everything.

Fitler Square Reviews

Fitler Square is really cute and homey. It's around a lot of other medical students, so it's a good social area and has an easy commute to school. It's also great if you like running because it's right off the trail on the river. Food is good but a bit homogenous (compared to West Philly especially.
Locust and spruce feel a lot safer than market or chestnut at night. Very residential streets with beautiful brownstones. Also close to dog park and the river walkway. About 10min walk from the popular buildings and 25min walk to huntsman
good place for people new to the city! close to both Penn and a lot of stuff downtown. I never lived in Philly beforehand, and definitely recommend this location
Love the neighborhood! If you're interested in being close to the center of the city and being able to actively explore Philly (for a not extreme price) it was great! Also was easy to get to my school - University of Pennsylvania. 15-20 mins to get to school by transit; 30 mins walking.

That being said I did notice that most students lived on the side of the school!
The beautiful tree-filled neighborhood is full of families, dogs, and students - it is safe, full of great restaurants, and boasts an equally quick walk to both University City and downtown attractions. The immediate access to the Schuylkill River Trail also can't be beat. While we lack apartment amenities, we love living in a historical brownstone that has charm and character. This is an area where you can live as a student and stay for another 20 years after that.
Great neighborhood, though expensive for Philly. If you're a Penn grad student who wants to be near campus but not on campus, it's ideal for distance from school and the Rittenhouse area. Lots of parks and residents are friendly.
There are residents without housing in the neighborhood. They're good people and new residents should be respectful of them and their belongings.
The neighborhood is very residential. Not a ton of bars/restaurants which can be annoying if you just want to pick up food after a busy day, but it's right near the park and Skukyhill river trail which is great for exercising and getting outdoors. Close to Trader Joe's and South Street market which is convenient
Center City is a fantastic area. I live on the northern side of it, which is the more financial/industrial/apartment building side. I live 2 blocks from a busy Trader Joe's and inches away from tons of great restaurants, corner stores, and shops. It's close to Rittenhouse Square, a swanky square block with a tiny park in the middle, as well as the Schuylkill River trail (great for running and biking) and the Art Museum area. Multiple major bus lines slice through this neighborhood, making it quite easy to get anywhere when you don't want to walk or bike.
