She was extremely responsive, honest and I felt she always had my best interest at heart. She clearly knows the Boston rental market. She managed my expectations and also advocated for me time and time again. I had a very small window to secure an apartment post 9/1 and Courtney helped me find a place in my top location with all the amenities I was hoping for. If you're looking for an apartment in Boston, Courtney is your girl!

We moved in from out of state as we needed to live out of boxes on a temporary lease while we were…read morehouse hunting. We got here less than a week before before the COVID shut downs so we didn't get to use the amenities like the pool, gym, BBQ area but it all looked nice. While the apartments are nice, I would say the construction of the cabinetry or the appliances aren't quite the best quality, it all looks nice and it all works which is the most important thing. I've lived in apartment complexes before and some of them bank on hitting you for fees especially at move-in and move-out. This is not the case. The staff from the maintenance people to the management are attentive and actually care. A case in point: we had a cat which is $50/month pet me. He was an old man and got sick. We had to put him to rest. We had already paid our rent and they had no problem crediting back the monthly pet fee and adjusting the rate. There is a package locker here but most of the time the Amazon workers don't care and dump the packages in the lobby of the building you're in. No amount of correspondence from the management here could ever possibly rectify that because the people delivering the packages don't get paid enough to care. As a result, some packages end up in weird places. On a couple occasions someone from the staff had actually brought over some things outside our door, which was much appreciated especially during the height of the COVID outbreak when we were limiting our entrance and exit through common areas. The one time I had to file a noise complaint it was handled immediately. This is the place where you're walking around and the maintenance staff will ask you how you're doing. Stop and ask to see if everything is all good and make sure nothing doesn't need to be fixed. We moved out because we found our perfect home. We didn't hold our breath thinking they could re-lease the unit but we were able to get off the last month and one week of rent owed because someone leased the unit we vacated. We had no issue getting the deposit back - minus the replacement cost for the blinds our toddler broke. We really liked the short distance to the ALDI and Stop And Shop and other places. Would've loved to have been able to frequent the bar up the road, it was just opening up its outdoor space by the time we moved. A+ no regrets. Thanks Todd, Craig, and everyone else.

Long and thorough review alert!…read more About Me (what type of renter am I): With my job I relocate every 3 months and for the past ~2 years I've had no desire to stay at the same place for longer than 3 months. The key things I look for in an apt is safe, clean, affordable (can you even say this in MA lol), free parking, and my own bathroom (typically live with roommates). Wellington Place: I moved here Mar 2020, to take over someone's lease that lost their job. It fit the bill of what I was looking for, in addition to being in walking distance (within 10 minute walk) of my top grocery stores: Aldi, Trader Joes, and Stop & Shop. Its approx 15 min walk to Assembly Row, 5 min drive to Target and Costco, and 5 min drive to Wegmans. Its by far the most convenient location I've lived in within the US. Its a quick drive to Boston about 15-20 min drive and about 20 min drive to Burlington where I frequent for work. Lastly, its about 5 min walk to Orange line Wellington T stop. If you have a car, parking is plentiful here, no long treks to the car :). Aside from location I loved that they have trash and recycling drop off on each floor; hence, you don't have to worry about stepping foot outside to throw away trash. I'm an avid recycler so I loved that they had this option available (my previous apt in Burlington didn't). The rooms are huge. I have my office inside of my bedroom and a queen size bed and I still have more space. I also have a good size walk-in closet. However, my roommate's room and walk-in closet is much bigger than mine (I'm sure she can fit in addition to a desk a small couch in her room). When it comes to cost, they are very affordable for the location. I try to keep a hard cap on living expenses (no more than 1,500 a mo. including utilities). Lastly the staff from the maintenance team to the leasing office are customer-centric. I had initially told them that I would be moving after 3 months once I moved in but I fell in love with the place. They provided concessions to ensure that I was a happy a customer. Maintenance staff are very responsive and do a good job of following up after they fix items to ensure it works. I honestly wish that these were condos instead of apt because I would definitely look into buying here. If you're looking for an A1 experience I highly suggest Wellington Place :).

This is an old run-down looking apartment building from the outside, but then many of the apartment buildings around here look like that. On the inside it's gorgeous and the rooms are actually really great. I'm jealous that my friend who lives here whom I stay over with sometimes when I'm in Boston, gets to be here every night. Not least because she gets to spend every night with herself (swoon). She's fun and lively and young and gorgeous, and it suits her really well. It's close to the colleges and lots of great food and the T, and you can't really ask for a better spot to live in. When I saw what the rent was, I realized I couldn't possibly ever afford to live here myself - anytime soon anyway - and I also can't give it five stars when she's paying that much for a pretty average size room. I stayed at her place so often that I actually paid a week's rent for her last time I saw her, so I feel qualified in giving a review since I've contributed to the rent here LOL.

In doing my research of apartments in the area, this apartment managed by Bozzuto stood out in terms of the property, the location, and also the quality of the management company. Reviews on Apartments.com and Yelp have been overwhelmingly positive (with only real complaint being rowdy undergraduates who are no longer allowed to lease in these apartments), and I can confirm that my own experience is accurately reflected by these reviews. I've worked with Christian who was friendly yet professional in phone calls and email communications, and he's been very responsive and willing to help. I am disappointed that I will not be able to stay here, but this will be the first place that I will look the next time I need to find an apartment in the Cambridge area.

So, we opted for another which was 40% smaller and didn't even have a closet. After a bit more searching we ended up signing a few blocks away at Boston East. The apartment we have there isn't 400 sq feet, it's nearly 700 for the same price. The management is on it and very responsive at Boston East.

Between the managers, maintenance and 24 hour concierge service, I give it the ranking of A+. We have created so many lasting friendships at The Eddy-3 years have flown by, and we will miss it here.

The leasing office (Lindsay in particular) is kind, knowledgeable, prompt, and accommodating. Facilities: Modern, energy efficient, and well maintained equipment fills the building be it in the gym or your kitchen appliances. Parking garage is spacious as is the lobby and common living area. The gym can be a bit tight during peak times but that is infrequent. The rooftop deck is always in good order and was my favorite part of living at Chroma. The package concierge is also incredible! Location: Unlike the other reviews, I was reliant on my vehicle rather than the T. Being close to the pike was very helpful and the community was vibrant but also quiet (except the rooster nearby which we occasionally heard - still wondering how that pans out). I liked it overall. Overall, I moved out due to extenuating circumstances but once my current lease expires Chroma will be right at the top of my list. Everything went well from a warm welcome to a fond farewell and hopefully you'll find the same pleasure and comfort which I did.

I've generally enjoyed my time living at One Back Bay, but a recent experience highlighted a…read moreserious gap in management standards. Window cleaners were positioned directly outside my unit without any prior notice. I walked out of my bathroom in a towel to find individuals immediately outside my windows. This was an avoidable and uncomfortable invasion of privacy. When I raised this with the management office, I was told I may not have been included in the notification because I am vacating at the end of the month. I was then directed back to the leasing office without any meaningful acknowledgment of the issue or accountability for the communication failure. For a building at this price point, basic communication around vendor access and resident privacy should be non-negotiable and consistently applied to all residents, regardless of lease status. This experience fell well below expectations and is worth considering when evaluating management responsiveness.
