Great location
Perfect for campus, 2401 and Center City. Feels safe because it's off a main road which is well lit.

Safe choice with a lot of Wharton students, but could get more value for money elsewhere
Wanamaker has been a great place to stay, with access to a gym for no additional cost. The unit I stay in has old appliances which need some repair, but management have been quite responsive. Doormen are present 24x7 and are quite helpful. Wanamaker rent is on the more expensive side though, so there may be other options that offer more value for money.

Great building
Perfect location for Wharton students. The apartments are large and have lots of light, and the building staff is great.

The location cannot get better
Right in front of the SEPTA bus stop, BofA ATM, Irish Pub and close to many grocery shops, laundromats and in the heart of Center City, the Wanamaker House is the perfect location for a Wharton MBA student.

Quiet, Spacious
Good comfortable and sunny space. There is a carpet which sub-optimal, otherwise the building is nice.

Location, location, location
The location is the single best feature about this building - 20-30min walk to campus yet minutes from Rittenhouse square. The apartments inside the building probably vary in quality given they are condos - mine is ok, I'm paying for the location more than anything else. Good amenities in close proximity of the building with SEPTA bus stop nearby, Rite Aid a few minutes walk and Trader Joes 10mins away. Overall, a great place to stay.

Great location, so-so value
Great location, awesome front desk staff, and I'm overall pretty happy with the apartment but I don't know if its the best bang for your buck. The apartments themselves are a little older - older appliances etc but this isn't reflected in the rental price. That said, we do have a really awesome view, nice new carpets, and a good amount of space. The one thing that we were NOT expecting was how expensive our electric bills have been! We paid $180 in August for electric for a two bedroom apartment! It's been pretty crazy.
Allan Domb has been fine to work with and is quick to respond to repairs - one downside was the hassle of giving 2.5 months rent as a deposit - it was a ton of money upfront.

Studio in the Wanamaker
Each apartment's bathrooms and kitchens are different since some are updated and others not (also some units have hardwood, others carpet), and because of this, prices can range as well. However, if you get a good price, this place is a great building to live in. A lot of Wharton students, no issues with noise from other apartments, very convenient location, safe and overall comfortable.

Rittenhouse Square Reviews
Spruce Street in particular is great - it's a little south of the square, so is quieter/shielded from a lot of the traffic that the neighborhood gets, but it's not out of the way or far away. There's a Starbucks, a grocery store (Rittenhouse Market), and a few corner stores (Four Seasons and Food & Friends) within a 2-3 minute walk of my apartment.
