A bit of a walk, but busses and trains run all the time very frequently so it's very connected to the rest of the city. It is very downtown and noisier

The apartment complex itself is great, and right next to all the train lines in the Loop. The unit is spacious with relatively updated appliances and floorplans, the gym is sufficient for a quick workout, the pool is open all months of the year, the management fixes any issues in a timely manner. The only complaint I would have is that this building is on a busy street (Michigan Ave), which means the noise can sometimes be bothersome for sensitive people. Overall, great apartment complex to live in.

My partner and I live here, and my partner works from home full time, and has no complaints. The rent is the most affordable in the area, and the entire building is largely made up of Booth students. It makes socializing and studying very easy, as you're usually only an elevator ride away from a study group or a get together. The location is literally across the street from the train to campus, and it has some pretty nice amenities for the cost. I just don't think any other luxury building is worth the difference in rent from MPP.

my floor wasn't even flat. Sometimes I think that the building will cave in. But besides for that, it's pretty awesome living with friends.

You definitely need to invest in air purifiers, the floors may not be level, and there's an over sense of decrepitness. You should really pay attention to the floorplan you choose (will it get a lot of sun, does it have carpet in the bedroom, is the bathroom updated).

BUT the experience of living in the same building as so many Boothies far outweighs those cons - just want to make sure people know what they're getting into.

MPP is good value for money and location. Being on floors >20 and being facing the lake helps with noise from streets.
It is good fun to be in the same building with a lot of classmates and friends.
Not having in unit laundry can be a hassle but the shared washers, dryers always have availability. Overall have quiet neighbors and feel like I have good value for money here.

Great to live in the Booth dorms - it's fun, convenient, and unpretentious. Has everything you need, especially as a student!

MPP is a good, non-fancy, option, with community as it's biggest benefit.

Great value

MPP is a very reasonably priced apartment building. The unit is not fully updated, but has newer floors and stainless steel appliances. My apartment feels very spacious and I have a lot of storage space that I really appreciate. The gym and pool are sufficient for everyday workouts. It is very conveniently located for commuting to Hyde Park. Overall, it is a great building to live in if you want to be close to your classmates while also living on a student budget.
