Best places: Apartment complexes in Philadelphia, United States

🫤 I wish the staff treated the black residents with the same respect/cordiality as the white residents (Anita, of note, has a pattern of standing there staring at me as I go through the lobby without offering any greeting or wave of acknowledgment. Which has been unfortunate/awkward/uncomfortable). A...

👍👍 Another year has gone by as I continue to reside in this awesome building and I continue to be amazed and particularly grateful to the entire staff that work so hard to keep everything impeccable not to mention their perpetually positive attitudes. So I will just re-run the review I wrote last year....

😠 I lived at the Griffin Center City apartments for 3 years while my fiance was in medical residency. During our time here, there were so many false fire alarms that not only myself but my dog developed anxiety related to any kind of alarm resembling the fire alarm. The elevators are constantly breaki...

😠 The pool heating system has not worked for the better part of 2 years. The new solution is to keep the pool and air at a temperature that is way too cold to swim in so if you are moving here do not expect to be able to enjoy this amenity. Edit: today they announced that the heated pool is no longer...

👍 Newly-constructed building with great amenities and staff. Some apartments have great views of downtown! The only minus point is that certain amenities are breaking down often (it is great to have public grills, but they were broken after only a couple of weeks), but that is probably due to other pe...

👍👍 UPDATE September 5, 2023: I am still in awe at how great this building and community is. We have social groups, game board groups, tons of community space and study rooms with people that help each other make the best of their time in Philadelphia. A group of us took a trip to the Jersey Shore this...

👍👍 I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience with the leasing department at the Collins, I am so excited to call this place my home! Danielle has been an amazing help from the moment she toured me to the moment I’ve signed the lease, she provided me with all the necessary information to have a successfu...

👍👍 My tour at the Ludlow with Ryan was a fantastic experience. For some of the apartments in Philadelphia I looked into, tour guides were insensitive and didn't respect my time. However, Ryan made me feel very welcome during the tour, and we handled everything promptly. The tour allowed me to see the c...

😠 BE CAREFUL BEFORE YOU APPLY!! I was told that they "did not have enough information" to run my background check and as a result I need to pay a guarantor in order to live in the building. The reality is they did not ask for those information (bank account, pay stub etc.) and would not accept them ei...

🫤 I have stayed at other Sonders and loved it but here, it was a mess. I stayed 9 days and couldn't get anyone to fix a broken dishwasher, broken shelf in the refrigerator and outlets that weren't working. And the fob key access was a nightmare. I got locked out a few times and couldn't get anyone to...

😠 Horrible moving out process. Got charged hundreds for normal wear and tear (which they claim it’s beyond wear and tear) For example: one thing that we were charged was the stove (which was not new to begin with at the time when we moved in). After all, thought our security deposit will cover for thi...

😐 This apartment is okay. Cons: Street noise, thin walls so you can hear your neighbors and anyone in the hallway, no functional bathroom or kitchen fans, pitiful gym, no installed lighting in the bedrooms, and limited supply of hot water. Pros: location, nice ceiling to floor windows with pleasant ci...

🫤 2 stars for this building is only fair because the unit itself its worth 4 stars, but the management is worth 0. I lived in the Girard for 2 years, and dealing with the management staff was somewhere between painful and unbearable. The building and unit is very nice, and the front desk staff (who ar...

😠 I have never taken the time out of my life to write a review for anything. I mostly feel like things are “adequate” or “fixable” with a small change in my routine. This is not one of those cases. Ever since management has changed, my experience at the Republic has been very bad. I have not had cons...

😠 I lived there for 5 years and paid all rents promptly. I didn't cause any damage or create any issues during my stay. However, after moving out, my deposit was deducted. I have made four attempts to request a breakdown of the deductions via email, but they have completely ignored me with no reply. I...
