Lived here for a few years. Not a bad place to live. Bldgs 1-3 have alot of undergrads and it is a bit louder. Bldgs 4-8 very quiet and can get your work done. Bldgs 4-8 typically are graduate students. Bldgs 1-3 have some with central air 4-8 do not have A/C. Maint. staff on the ball. When first moved in had a few things that needed attention but nothing big. They fixed asap. I have had no issues here. These are 1 and 2 bedroom FULLY FURNISHED units so that is why the price is a bit higher. Free buses/shuttle to BU are right outside the front door so extremely convenient. This comes in handy when time to move out; everything stays and makes moving easier. The place was built awhile ago so no fan in bathroom and older style kitchen cabinets but fine for what you need. Smoke alarms in bedrooms and front rooms. I have found no problem with office staff. Pleasant exchanges and helpful. FEDEX and UPS deliver daily to office and office staff place sticker on your door to notify you of pkg arrival. If maint. does have to fix something you need fixed they leave 'maint. tag' on your door. Parking is free; there are some covered spots, it is never full. Grounds are well kept; snow removal good. Office gives you a car sticker for parking free. very convenient to BU, many students walk, bike or take shuttle/bus. Bus is approx 6-8 mins from Campus dropoff point. You get keys to your apt., your mailbox and the main door to your bldg. Nothing is perfect and I am sure others will have some issues but my stay has kept me safe and comfortable. The nice thing is if you want a private single furnished apt you can't go wrong here.
