MPP

Love living with everyone else from Booth. Building is fairly nice if you come from the East Coast and are used to the bare bones for an apartment. Great views from the triples.

MPP

MPP is a good building - not luxurious, but good enough and relatively inexpensive if you share a 3-bedroom apartment. The location is excellent - right downtown, so walking distance to a lot of corporate events and Chicago sights, and also right above Millennium Station for a quick commute to campus. Having lived in a regular apartment in London before, I find the loading dock very useful as it removes the hassle of receiving packages and is open quite late almost every day. There is also a decent gym for a casual user like me. Within the unit itself, I like the spacious kitchen and living room. I have the smallest room in my 3-bed apartment and, again coming from London, even this is enough for my needs - I have room to study, a reasonably-sized closet and a very partial but also very nice view of Lake Michigan. When I think back to my decision, it boiled down to: decent building, good price, lots of Booth people (i.e., house parties with no commute). Overall, pretty happy.

Only good because of network effects

It's great being in the same building as so many other Boothies, and inexpensive, but management is pretty bad. It's a shame, because the location and physical apartments are pretty nice.

Convenient

Very conveniently located for being close to the entire student body and the train down to Harper. Pretty lackluster management and several issues with elevators.

MPP

Overall, I like living in MPP. I like the size of the apartment compared to other much smaller apartments in the Loop.

The biggest downsides to the apartment are not having in-unit washer/dryer and the temperature is hard to regulate (heat/AC operate from units in the living room and bedroom instead of being central air). I have had some issues with management over parking but they have otherwise been fine.

Very fine, best option at the price point

MPP is fine. The building is on the older side, but the units themselves are nice enough. Some apartments have very nice view of the park, though so simply overlook Michigan Ave and get a decent amount of noise from the street. The gym is subpar, but does the trick in a pinch. Elevators are a bit sketchy from time to time. There are certainly much nicer buildings in the area, but MPP is the best option at its price point. It's also the closest option to Millennium Station (train to campus).

Decent bang for the buck

Nothing spectacular but solid housing choice; location convenience is probably the most attractive attribute.

The Loop Reviews

349 reviews
Very secure and tranquil. Very close to public transportations. Namely millennium station which I use to ride the Metra trains to campus.
Very close to the lake and navy pier
Great park surrounded by all the buildings.
There’s good supermarket that has everything. A couple restaurants and coffee shops are also there.
Amazing place to have a social life! It is super close to Gleacher and to where recruiting events take place. Most Boothies live in this area and that helps creating a nice community. West loop with amazing restaurants is 2 metro stops/5min uber. TNDCs also happen walking distance. Its also where most touristic attractions are so its great for when friends/family visit you.
Safe neighborhood and good because it’s where most Booth students live but it’s a little sterile esp at night. Lots of tourists around. I would not live in this neighborhood if most other students didnt live here. However it is convenient to get to most places around chicago. In the middle of everything
Columbus plaza is on the quieter side, a few blocks away from Michigan. Tides and park millennium are even quieter but lack the river views that CP offers. It can be a bit too empty at night, which may be of concern to some. Most of the nearby restaurants in the pedway focus on serving office workers so they close around 6pm. Great access to river walk for running or biking.
The Loop has pros and cons. Living in the Loop is nice because during the day up until about 8 p.m. there are people walking around the streets which is nice because you feel more secure walking. However, on weekends and after a certain time at night it empties and it can be a little eerie.

That being said, if you're anywhere near State St. or the Mag mile, there's pretty much people around at any given hour. It's fun to live downtown because the streets are bustling with interesting people, sometimes there's live music on street corners and there are a lot of restaurants and shops.
Beautiful area in a great location with a dog park, playground, and full service grocery store in short walking distance. Restaurants and transit are just ok in this area, but not a bad walk to the "L" and that opens up the restaurant options. No close-by childcare for kids under preschool age, but great preschool and private elementary school, with high price tags. Ubers often find this place impossible to locate due to GPS's going crazy with the multiple layers of Wacker, Randolph, Columbus, and East South Water Street.
The Loop is an unlikely place to live but I love it. You are in the heart of the city, close to every L line possible, very good restaurants and walking distance to River North without paying River North prices for apartments. Apartments are smaller throughout the neighborhood but if you are an urbanite and don't mind limited closet space you will love it here. Mostly everyone is walking distance to work.
Great location close to blue, brown, green, pink, orange and red lines. 10 minute walk to State St., 5-10 minutes to River North, 15 minutes to Michigan Avenue. Grocery stores aren't really walkable but most people in the building use PeaPod/Instacart. Safe to walk around at night. A lot of new restaurants (quick service) opening in the area.
