Great apartment for grad students

My roommate and I love The Sterling. The apartment is about a 25 minute walk to the law school. It is also very close to great restaurants (including an amazing sushi restaurant & bagel shop right under the building). There is a pool and gym at the top floor. Our only complaint is that the temperature is difficult to control because there is not central AC.

1Y Experience

The roof deck is great for hanging with friends or doing work. The gym is well equipped, so I don't need a separate membership. The rooms are spacious and there is a ton of closet space.

I live on a high floor and face south, so I get a lot of sun in the a.m.

great!

All units are renovated. Rooftop pool is beautiful. Building gym is pretty big and has lots of machines. Units are not super large given what you pay for. Management was responsive. Have to pay for package system which works well but have to pickup packages within 2-3 days or else you get charged. No thermostat system so heat and AC is on/off system.

Severe Cockroach Problem Causing Emotional Distress

Been seen a ton of disgusting cockroaches since day 1 and not only is management charging me for pet control, but even the pet control professional said "this is bad" when he came. He now came every week and I'm only seen marginally improvement.

The crawling cockroaches are a recurring nightmare and are causing a lot of emotional distress for me. I am looking to move out but Is there a way of recourse in this situation?

Reviewed by Temple Law Student living at The Lofts at Logan View
Loved the neighborhood. Paying for monthly parking in a nearby garage was not outrageously expensive, was close to center city for fun and errand-running, Target and Whole Foods nearby made for easy groceries when I didn’t want to leave the city. Sabrina’s Cafe is nearby, which is super delicious. BSL was about an 8 minute walk to either Spring Garden or Race-Vine, depending on if I was going north or south. Great area for walking around and getting out of your apartment.
Reviewed by Temple Law Student living at 2121 Market Street
The apartment is technically between Logan Square and Rittenhouse Square. We live right above Trader Joe's, which makes grocery shopping a breeze. We spend a lot of time walking around Rittenhouse Square and Rittenhouse neighborhood to pick up groceries, drink coffee, and generally hang out with each other and friends. The river walk is a short walk away, and the Museum District is within walking distance. Back when I was going to school regularly, the Septa trolley stop is conveniently right in front of our apartment and the 30th Street Station is a 10 minute walk away. While the amenities leave some things to be desired and we pay a premium for our location, it is a great place to live especially for newcomers to Philadelphia who want to be next to all the action.

Unless you mind the noise of cars in the street below, you will not have any issues. Given that is center city there are many people experiencing homelessness so if that is a deal breaker I recommend other neighborhoods. The upside is being 5-10 minutes distance from all the fun, restaurants, activities, nightlife, etc.. that you will ever need.
Reviewed by CHOP Pediatric Resident living at 2100 Parkway
Super close to Whole Foods and Trader Joes, and I love the walk along the parkway. It's close to various museums which is great! Overall the neighborhood is pretty residential, but there are coffee shops and to-go restaurants that are easy to access.
Reviewed by Penn Resident living at 1919 Market
The neighborhood is a little more commercial but only a minute away from everything wonderful in rittenhouse. But it feels very safe at all times because it’s on a major street.
Reviewed by Penn Carey Law Student living at 2040 Market Apartments
It is a great location. The law school is a 15 minute walk. Most of Center City is also within a 20 minute radius. A lot of other law students live nearby.
Reviewed by Penn Carey Law Student living at 2121 Market Street
Lots of great bars and restaurants in the area. One of the safest and nicest areas in Philly. There are generally lots of people walking around.
Reviewed by Temple Law Student living at Franklin Tower Residences
Close to tons of great places to eat/drink, shop, etc. Walking distance to anything in Center City/Callowhill/Art Museum areas.
