Station 9 is really central for the business school students. If you are looking to be close to the social scene Station 9 is a great option for incoming business school students.

Something to consider is noise levels. If you are not hoping to be in the center of the action, you may be annoyed by the constant late nights of loud music/ pool parties. Another negative is being forced to pay for a trash service that is often inconsistent. Some nights it gets picked up earlier than listed and if you put it out when you are supposed to it won't be taken.

The gym is the best of the ninth street options. All times we have put in a request to have something fixed, someone has come up within an hour and fixed the issue.

Station Nine ("S9") is overpriced for the area, but it's worth it to be in the Ninth Street area if you are moderately or highly social. The management team is very responsive, the location is incredible, the gym is awesome, and the apartment is nicer than what I expected.

If you live by the meditation gardens, you get the best of both worlds - a quiet apartment to study/work/interview in (+ a beautiful view), while still being steps away from other MBAs' apartments, the S9 social life and the active pool area in summer.

I overall have loved living at Station 9! Super convenient location with great amenities and overall fair rent price.

The hallways are dirty and management is impersonal. They will nickel and dime you for every last cent and be slow to respond to maintenance requests.

I walked by the leasing office with a friend and her pet. Within 24 hours I received a request telling me I owed the complex a pet deposit despite not having a pet.

Even moving in was a hassle. I arrived into town around midnight the day my lease started and asked the staff if I could drop my things off into the living room because the hotel I was staying at didn't have private parking. The staff then proceeded to give me a hard time about my moving in even though it was my lease start date and tried to get me to pay an additional day's rent. When I didn't agree to pay an additional day's rent they made a huge deal about it and treated me as if they were doing me this giant favor by letting me move in at midnight on my lease start date.

With regards to my room the walls are very thin. I live on the first floor and my neighbors above me sound like they're stomping and make my bedroom door shake every time they walk around their living room. I talked to management about the issue and they told me that they weren't going to do anything about it and I just had to deal with it.

I do not recommend living here, they advertise themselves as a luxury property but that couldn't be further from the truth. Between the dirty hallways and the staffs attitude I would recommend looking elsewhere. You'll end up paying less money for a nicer place and have a much better experience.

Great place off campus! No carpets which is a little strange to me and always something going on at the pool which can be annoying, but overall a great experience only a 7 minute drive from school! If I had to do it all over again I’d definitely choose to live here again!

Spacious and Social property

It’s extremely close to ninth street and Harris teeter which makes it extremely convenient! It’s also one of the safest neighbourhoods in Durham!

S9 is the party house, which is good and bad depending on what you want. The interior is pretty old and not as nice as B9 or 810.

Great place overall during grad school
