Have lived in Chestnut Hall for 1 year. The experience was enjoyable, comfortable in overall. Love the location, environment, convenience, price and the feeling of home. Lots of stories happened here which I would cherish in the rest of my life. Although, sometimes the concierge service is hardly satisfactory, missing packages and cannot solve the problem which is annoying, this place is overall great and worth recommended. Hope the package service can be more reliable and quick in response.

Stay at Chestnut Hall Apartments is generally ok. Some rooms in the apartments are old (especially the bathroom and the kitchen) but the apartments are pretty nice and convenient. The staff is friendly and the common areas are good. Nevertheless, here are some disadvantages too. The fire alarm is defective and is ringing loudly at least three times a week, sometimes late at night, during the night or early in the morning. Washing machines were changed for new ones, more expensive and which let stains and tracks on clothes. There is no outside luminosity in certain apartments and the apartments are not acoustically insulated at all.

Chestnut Hall is a friendly environment in a great location. All my concerns are addressed quickly, and the staff is nice and helpful. The community is also smoke-free, which is good for a non-smoker for me, especially since smoke is uncomfortable for me. The lobby is a nice meeting area, and the new donut shop in the lobby, Beiler's, is a nice plus!

I have just moved in, the leasing process was a bit cumbersome and I think some fees and deposits should have been explained more clearly in the very beginning of the process. Apart from that initial complication, my apartment was impeccable at move-in, the view is great and the building is very well located in University City, so I'm very happy with it.

Good location - close to restaurants, grocery store, movies. The maintenance team responds to requests quickly and diligently. Due to being close to the UPenn campus, noise level increases substantially because of the bars next door. Overall good experience.

With how warm the weather has been my apartment became like an oven and was pushing 85 degrees inside. Chestnut Hall responded immediately to help bring the temperature down in my apartment so that I could finally get some sleep and be comfortable. They were quick to address and fix the problem. Their dedication to their residents is unparalleled. Thank you guys!

Overallï¼ it is a good place to stay if you attend Upenn or Drexel. There are buses accessible and a lot of street parking space with permit 2. But it would be noisy since the window doesnt close out the noise from the roads.
