Great apartment

Great access to school, comfortable apartment. It's nice to have a 24 hour doorman and all utilities included. Definitely feel very safe. Management is also super responsive, and all my problems are fixed by the day after I submit a report. Only complaint is that it's a bit far from grocery stores.

Great for law students

Only issue is it is occasionally difficult to find a parking spot, if you are looking for one.

Shoreland is great!

It definitely is a bit on the pricey/fancy side, but I think it’s worth it for the location (bus stop in front, next to the lakefront running trail, somewhat close to Trader Joe’s and close to open produce.) 24 hour front desk and package pickup is great. Management has been really nice so far.

Great Location & Amenities

Building is very nice, 171 stops right in front making it very convenient. Amenities like the club room and gym are clean and easy to use. Front desk staff fantastic.

Shoreland

The building staff at Shoreland is really great, for the most part. They're very responsive to maintenance requests and keep the building very clean and in good shape. They do take an excessively long time to process your packages before letting you pick them up.

Solid, slightly overpriced

Shoreland is convenient to the law school, and I have no problems with the apartment or management company, but cheaper options exist if you look.

Building is great, Mac is iffy

MAC has been a bit iffy at times– they tried to trick everyone into bundling their utilities into one payment under the guise of convenience, but upon inquiry we found out it would about double the amount people were paying for utilities. The staff in the building and maintenance has been great though. I signed a two-year lease which is why I am still there. If they try to raise the rent again in conjunction with the utility increase when I go to renew I'll probably leave.

Also, top floor has tiny windows. It was disappointing for sure.

A lot of other law students live there which is convenient.

Feels like home

Compared to some of the other apartment buildings I would say Shoreland is the best value and experience. The front desk staff make you feel at home and always welcome. Maintenance requests are usually completed within 48 hours. The lighting and general apartment experience is better than Regents. Quite a few law students live in Shoreland so you get a nice community feel and you don't have to leave much. Also the bus stop is right outside and they usually give you $70 of Uber credits per month for rides home from the law school (after 5:30 and before 8:30 on weeknights).

Wonderful apartments

I really like living in the Shoreland. I think the amenities (particularly in-unit laundry) are great, and I like the social component of there being so many law students in the building. The front desk staff are warm and personable and maintenance has been incredibly prompt whenever I needed them.

Hyde Park Reviews

222 reviews
I prioritized living close to the law school in an area with restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery stores. 5252 offered all these things. I can also easily walk my dogs to the lake from my building.
Comfortable and walkable, decent selection of amenities (restaurants, grocery stores, etc.) and close to the lakefront. Not much nightlife
Hyde Park is a fantastic place to live. My girlfriend and I see ourselves staying there for a long time.
Great neighborhood close to the school. Many students live here, which is good for social events.
Hyde Park is a pretty place, very lowkey though. Not much going on (few bars & restaurants). A bit far from other happening neighborhoods in Chicago. There are crime issues (cars broken in, muggings) but not horrible--just have to be vigilant about avoiding risky situations.
Hyde Park is quiet and feels a bit more like a neighborhood, but it is easy to get downtown via the CTA buses or the Metra Electric. The neighborhood itself has some nice cafes and things, but there is less to do outside the school
Hyde Park is the BEST. It's beautiful, active community of people who just really care about the neighborhood. I feel safer living in Hyde Park than any other neighborhood I've lived in Chicago (Lakeview, Logan, Wicker) because the people who live in HP have done so deliberately; they came here either due to the University or simply a desire to live here, which means people say hi on the street, strike up conversations in grocery lines, remember you when you see them at brunch, etc. That being said, I wouldn't recommend it for people who want to be in the middle of the action (the Loop). I chose HP because I have no patience for the bustle....and because it's way cheaper. My apartment would rent for twice as much if it were near MPP.
I don't get why people dislike Hyde Park so much. Although, to be fair, I do not go out much and when I do, I have a car. But, I really like being able to walk to school everyday rather than have to commute. Plenty of grocery options, especially now that trader joe's is open. Decent number of restaurants around and they're good; nothing spectacular. As for safety, be aware and don't walk by yourself at 2am; use common sense and you'll be fine.
