DO NOT LISTEN TO THE FAKE REVIEWS - DO NOT LIVE HERE!! - This is by far, the worst place to live in Philadelphia. I had to break my lease...the ceiling collapsed in the kitchen area - not fixed. large roaches in my apartment - no help whatsoever. leak in bedroom causing mold on walls, ceiling, and floor - not fixed. This place is a joke. No one could pay me enough to ever consider living here. ...Full review of Parkway House

take the good with the bad - I have been a St Ives resident for 3 yrs now. Over those yrs the property has continuously declined. The management and office staff have an excuse for everything, but they complete absolutely nothing! Maintenance does a fair job at repairs when they actually show up. 50% of the work orders I request all require a follow up to ask why the work was not completed on the day the office said ...Full review of St Ive's

What a deal! gas heat included in rent changed to electric heat on PECO bill - Management boasts the $35.00 gas heat surcharge has been dropped.Do the math when you get your PECO bill with your new A/C / electric resistence heating unit spinning your PECO meter like a top.Management also stated the new A/C's were installed as an improvement for the tenants.When the main motivation was to saddle the tenants with their entire heating bill without a proportionate ...Full review of Brookshire Trace Apartments

a newbie's opinion - I have been a tenant at the Duval for about a month and am very happy to take past comments with a grain. I am renting a renovated one bed and i am in love! everything is new in my apartment so i have found a need for maintenance. It could use some more lighting around the building but other than that I am totally happy. Oh and the new lobby is amazing. Worth checking out. ...Full review of Duval Manor

Hell on Earth - The one good: the office staff is nice. I always felt bad that they were stuck trying to save this sinking ship. Everything else is a nightmare. The crazy thing about this building is its total unwillingness to provide the necessities for even a resonably decent quality of life. For example, between November and April, you will not take a hot shower, unless you shower at really odd ...Full review of Chestnut Hill Tower

You're the Chump for Renting the Dump! - Northeast High School is directly across the street from Algon Gardens. If you ever went to high school, you should have known what to expect. I have friends who have lived at Algon Gardens without any problems. The lease spelled out what you could and could not do. You should have read it! Having a friend stay, (live), at your apartment without being on the lease is a NO! Maybe ...Full review of Algon Gardens

Univ City - Decent Apt, Painful Service - I recently moved out of a 2br/1ba apartment located in University City at 36th and Lancaster after 3 years. The location is great and the apartment is fairly modern compared to a lot of what can be found in the neighborhood. Not stylish, but spacious and did the job though not without defects. If there are problems, be prepared to invest some time. Negatives: - presently past-due with ...Full review of Ark Properties

Very Poor Apartment - I am a current resident in The Left Bank and have been dealing with serious issues on a daily basis. Since moving into the apartment in April I have been having to deal with a serious leak in my bedroom. Each time it rains, the corner of my bedroom gets wet and the entire apartment is filled with a mildew smell. Maintenance's attempts to fix the problem were woefully inadequate. It is ...Full review of Left Bank on Walnut Street

no too bad - I think my stay here has been acceptable (been here >2 years now). The windows are beautiful but they make your utility bill high since they aren't sealed the best. Also, The walls are thin. I hear everything louder than regular volume TV from my neighbors. This is okay for the most part because neighbors are courteous enough to not have weekday parties lasting till the morning. The ...Full review of 2121 Market Street
