Do yourself a favor and DO NOT move here. This place is the biggest scam - ridiculous prices, management is unreasonable stupid/arrogant/mean, constant renovations, constant construction workers roaming the halls, awful fumes and odors, unrenovated facilities, no thermoregulation in the apartment, its just SO bad. I wish I never had signed a contract with them.
Consider yourself warned...

I agree that the entire management personnels are shitbags. example 1: My fire alarm goes off repeatedly and randomly. I submitted many maintenance requests, but it was never fixed, forcing me to dismantle the alarm. When they came to show prospective tenants my unit, I reported the problem to them again. THey said they'd fix the problem by talking to the manager. 10 minutes later, manager sent me a letter fining me $100 for tempering with alarm. When I tried to explain the situation, manager wouldn't let me talk (rudest, meanest, and ugliest ----- on earth), and keep insisting on fining me even though other maintenance staff assessed that alarm was really old and could be triggered by dust. Example 2: One day at 6am the air compressor was making so much noise (comparable to noises made by a hellicopter) it woke me up. I talked to the guard downstairs and she wasn't willing to contact anybody. I was adamant for her to find help because I was going to have an exam that day. She refused and said I was harrassing her. She also threatened to call the cop on me. Hours later I got a letter from Management saying I violated my lease by being rude to the guard, while never apologized or addressed the air compressor issue.

Hi! Please contact the person below ASAP if you are also unfairly treated by Chestnut Hall. Thanks! Miki Farcas ; farcas@pobox.upenn.edu; 2158988500 I am contacting the Penn legal counsel trying to solve a ridiculous issue I have with Chestnut Hall management. I do need more tenants to contact the legal people at Penn to address the management regarding certain issues. Hence, they can take actions accordingly (such as change those rude people).
