I appreciate how Chestnut Hall is spacious, quiet, hassle free, and close to the Penn Law School.

DO NOT RENT FROM THEM! My daughter just moved out and they are withholding our security deposit for "Full Paint Studio". She lived there for 2 years and they said there are "marks on the walls" but haven't provided ANY documentation or pictures, in violation of Philadelphia tenant law. I asked for a walkthrough and they stated that they did not conduct them with their tenants. These are our pictures of the way we left the apartment, and for that they are withholding $469! This is the FOURTH apartment we have rented in Philadelphia Center City / University City and we've NEVER had a security deposit withheld!

We had looked into several buildings for apartment rental. Chestnut Hall It was the good value, spacious units and excellent building services. The building is high in character and design. It is located right at campus the University of Pennsylvania. All shops, restaurants, and grocery are within 2 blocks of the location.

From the beginning, the building manager directly helped our move and selection beyond-the-call-of-duty. He was our best experience and continuing supports beyond-the-call-of-duty.

This started with the quick application approval, lease agreement. After our move, the building maintenance was quick to respond to ensure the unit was fully ready and working.

We are satisfied with our rental choice at Chestnut Hall, 3900 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia.

We give our highest recommendation for best value for money and comfort for residential apartment.

It's a good experience, but not the best. The building is old, so I find myself calling maintenance about once a month to fix something, but the maintenance does respond in a timely manner. The walls are made of concrete, so noise doesn't carry, which is great for hosting small gatherings. There's a security desk which makes me feel safe.

Terrible management absurd utilities and very warm in the apartments

the building has a long history so the facilities are a little bit old, especially the drainage system in the bathroom. We have to call the maintenance guy to clear the blockage every week. and the rental price is too high for students without any income. The good thing is close to the campus, I don't need to worry about the safety issue.

Chestnut Hall

Close to campus, old, gets the job done

Lived here all 3 years. Location is the best part. Bus stop is right outside. Tons of closet space for my 380 sq ft studio. Older amenities/building though. Heat/AC is central so the unit in your apartment, which the building controls, will switch off heat/AC capability depending on the season. Not a huge issue but annoying. Somewhat slow on maintenance calls. Lobby and package area is nice.

Close to school!
