I have lived in various rentals throughout schooling and think living in Regency Towers was awesome! I graduated in December and Regency Towers was able to do a short term lease for me (7 mos). It is a very comfortable building to live in. Garage parking is available for a small fee. Every single person I encountered, from management to residents, was extremely nice. Rent was easily paid online & heat was included so our only extra bill was internet. Maintenance was extremely prompt. There were a couple of times that my roommate and I blew a fuse or the smoke detectors needed batteries and someone came up immediately.
The location of the apartment is good in that it is an easy drive (or $6 cab ride) to downtown, the mall and Onondaga Lake park are also close. However, the safety of the area is not good. The building is fully secured so I never had to worry about safety within my apartment but I did take basic precautions like not walking around alone at night. There is also some noise from the street, depending on which side of the building you live on.
Overall, a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend it to a friend!
