The facility is nice. I wish I had known that the age demographic is on the older side, because I value being able to spend time with other Duke students.

It is near a major street and highway, so it is loud.
Lincoln management just took over this year and the management is not great. There are issues with internet downtime, long wait for maintenance, and on going constructions. The only good thing is that the police station is right next to it and the safety is suppose to be good.

One of the cheaper downtown apartment options with close proximity to Brightleaf/East Campus as well as central downtown. Convenient parking garage, awesome pool, and the new management staff is fantastic. Highly recommend.

Good apartment

I like living at Bell West. It is close to campus, downtown, and ninth street. I like that the building is secure. The only downside is that it is on the higher end of prices for Durham.

Things are always fixed promptly and the staff is very nice

Lots of sunlight. Study areas inside/outside. Good gym.

I've lived in Bell West for four years and love it. The leasing office and maintenance staff are super friendly and responsive, the amenities are very nice, location is great, and the residents are generally more of a mix of young professionals plus some grad students and some families (so great if you don't want to be near tons of undergrads plus want a little separation from classmates on Ninth Street).

It is a very nice building with new ammenities.

My experience has been great so far. The apartment unit is very good, with new appliances. The location, amenities, and maintenance are also great at Bell West End. Two downsides are that the building has only 1 individual study room, and the building is located near a train line, which can be noisy during the night.
