Studio apatrment review

From: blickcd@aol.com
Date posted: 3/8/2005
Years at this apartment: 1985 - 1986
 
Just found this web site and had to write a review on the studio apartments, since it seems that all current reviews are for the larger units.

Please note the date that I lived here, which was in the mid 80's. Although it's been a long time since I lived there, reading the other reviews tells me that little has changed.

Overall, the studio apartments tend to take less abuse and so are in better condition than the larger units. I lived in #358 if anyone wants to put a memorial plaque there in my honor.

If you check out the web site www.campusviewapartment.com/quadrangle/index.html you can find the various floor plans there. #358 was a Studio "A" plan, which was a main room, larger than the average dorm room, for living and sleeping. There is a regular sized bathroom complete with tub/shower combo. There was a full kitchen in a small room to one side which was more than adequate, but too small to put the table and chairs in.

How noisy the place is depends mostly on who your neighbors are. Rule of thumb seems to be noisy on the weekends but okay during the week, which fit my lifestyle at the time. Most noise came thru the door to the hallway and very little from above or below.

I thought the place was a little high priced, but if you are a sophomore looking for your own private apartment this is about all you have to choose from. It will serve your purpose until you can shop for cheaper housing further away from campus.

The pool was somewhat of a joke because it is tiny and closed early in the fall, not to re-open until summer when I had moved out.

Although I've probably said enough, you can contact me at the above email address with any questions.
