I am a male in his mid 20's (still like to have fun) that just moved to into The Bingham a couple months ago. Before signing the lease I have checked out countless apartments. This includes: Bridgeview, Stonebridge, Quay 55, Crittenden Court, E. 4th Buildings, Perry Payne, Statler Arms, Marshall Place, and even Chesterfield (only because of the rooftop pool). Chesterfield and some of the E. 4th buildings are the only ones you shouldn't even waste your time with. For me personally it came down to The Bingham and the first 3 listed. I loved everything about Stonebridge (Plaza, I hated what I saw in Towers) accept for it's location in the Flatts. I then went on to read a tons of reviews (mostly bad) about it so I quickly dismissed it from the list. At Bridgeview you got a lot of square footage for the money but the places in my price range I saw didn't do much for me. Quay 55 was nice with it's lake front and pool being HUGE PLUSES but it not being walking distance anywhere, DEALBREAKER I quickly took it off the list too. I loved EVERY DAMN THING about The Bingham the minute I walked in. It felt very warm and very homey. It has, hands down, THE BEST gym (i believe it's the best for any complex period). Gorgeous community room with billiards and ping pong. The Sun deck that you can just go out at night with some friends to just hang out. After checkin out the suite...it was a done deal... I signed the lease and now 3 months later don't regret it for a second. It has been the most amazing experience living downtown at the best address and absolute best conveniences. We have the convenience of the only grocery store in the area being attached to the building. Liquor store also right below on 10th. Great bars...amazing food and superb night life. A minute walk to west 6th. Every single person (a lot seem to be late 20s to early 40s I assume because it isn't cheap to live here) that we've encountered so far has been super friendly. The staff, especially like Justin, Kelly(concierge), and Roy, really great people. I wish we did have thicker walls as they are kind of thin...not a problem for us exactly but we have gotten a complaint so far when we entertaining some friends. That's why I said if noise is number one in priority you might get unlucky and get people like us as neighbors :P. If all else fails...we have a huge entrance sign that says "The Bingham"...so clearly the best, hands down. ;)
