Mac Property Management

I have been living at the Kingsbury for 2 years now and love it! The apartment building is clean, maintenance is super responsive and make repairs very quickly, and the views are amazing! Also a very central location to enjoy Forest Park!

Wonderful experience, nice place which I have loved for almost 3 years. Everything is just so amazing and the stuff guy here are all kind and helpful. Always handle any maintenance issues in time.

This building is quiet, as it includes many students and doctors from SLU and WashU and Barnes' med campus. It is a little outdated with window unit AC and community laundry. Great drive (less than 10 minutes from school) and avoids the big traffic buildup since it is before the park. It is two seconds from the trails in the park, which is great to get outside. Fun access to restaurants and Whole Foods within walking distance. Be cautioned, I didnt look hard and did not notice before renting that the living room and bed room have zero lighting, so I had to buy lots of lamps. There is also no garbage disposal or peep hole (if that matters to you). I lived in Park Pacific before and, while that apartment had more bells and whistles, I more enjoy the quiet and location of the Montclair.

Extremely high rent but worst experience ever! Outdated amenity, noisy window AC, bathtub clogged twice in a year. No admin, tiny gym, shared washer and dryer. People living here are delusional!

This is a decent apartment building to live in. Has shuttle stop right in front but the management is a lil slow on responding.

Great experience

5252 studio - nice building, good management, nice amenities, spacious apt

Regents is not the best place to live, but it's definitely worth it. Cons: management isn't great, the package room is a mess, the elevators are slow, many of the apartments aren't updated, buses to campus are much less regular than they advertise. Pros: things tend to work, spacious, beautiful views of the river, social life, amenities, cheap. I think Regents is a good place to be if you want things like a gym, doorman, river views, and a law school community, while still having enough issues to make it cheap.

Overall, the Shoreland is a good building. The apartment is very nice, as are the common areas. The building is plagued by elevator problems--I've been stuck in the elevator on four separate occasions and have sometimes had to take the stairs because the elevators are entirely down.

So far has been a decent place to live. Bad gym though.

I like my unit, but it's weirdly shaped. Make sure you tour in person. Location on the point is wonderful and a ton of the class lives here.
My AC keeps breaking, but they are pretty responsive.

Great for a grad students living alone who want both privacy and a strong community. Spacious floor plan. Perfect for hosting small gatherings. I also love having in-unit laundry.
Only concern is that maintenance and the resident services team are sometimes hard to get in touch with, especially for urgent issues.

The Shoreland is all-around excellent:
1. Location: I'm a UChicago Law student, and it is great to be about a mile from the edge of campus.
2. Transportation: The 171 bus (with several campus stops) comes right to the Shoreland on both weekdays and weekends.
3. Staff: The concierge staff are wonderful, and packages/mail are handled securely, because they staff 24-hours. The maintenance staff are very responsive (within 24 hours) and friendly.
4. Amenities: While the rent is not cheap, it does include most utilities and does make for a very comfortable, operable, and clean living space.
5. Pleasant residents: Fellow residents are generally friendly and responsible. (For those looking for quiet, this is a good place!)

Great Apartment

I really like this apartment so far! Maintenance has been pretty quick (usually within a day or two), the bus is very convenient, there are lots of students in the buildings, and the apartment itself is nice. On the negative side, the gym is pretty small and the hallways are kind of ugly (yellow walls and old carpet). It also was pretty hot when I moved in -- I don't think the A/C is the best (in my unit at least).
