It's ok. Nothing over the top. They put a lot of money into keeping the place up. Lot of elderly people still live here, but the place is filling with students from the near by university. One thing I don't like is the parking. They put in two new lots, easily 40-60 new spaces total, along with issuing parking stickers to residents. But if i come home past 10pm on a weekend there is nowhere to park. I've had to park in the county parking garage a half mile away near the court house. Also the two ladies who work in the "tenant relations" (or whatever) office; You cant go and pick up a package without them getting nosy. Speaking of packages, they are only open till 5pm, so good luck getting any packages at all. The landlord Bob is gracious and takes care of things quickly. Guy keeps the place together. Would recommend to college students or those starting out/elderly looking to downsize. Not really kid friendly. Not for any reason, just boring for a kid I would imagine. Pet friendly! But does not smell pet friendly! :) read more

I came here from a senior apartment in Philadelphia. The rent is twice as much here but the care and attention we receive from the staff and service people here it's worth 10 times the rent. I have never lived in any apartment building that showed more concern for its residents than Center Square. My children are thrilled that I'm here. The residents, young and old alike, are so friendly and respectful to one another. I intend to stay as long as I'm capable of caring for myself with a minimal of assistance. It's the best move I've ever made. read more

We have never had almost 1/2 of a security deposit not returned ($748.) for patch and painting. Considering the size of the apartment and the amount of "repairs" that were needed, the amount deducted was absurd. No dishwasher or washer and dryer. read more

The town is great but I have some advise for people who wants to move to the Center Square Apartments. Be thorough during move-in inspection and take a lot of pictures. The apartment might look good at first glance but their contractors do not do a good job fixing things from previous tenants. The office staff is friendly for the most part. They flatter you until they hear you're moving out. You should know that, by PA law, you can sue your landlord for 3 times the amount they withheld wrongfully plus your lawyer expenses. They might not keep records of things they think could be in favor of the tenant. That's why when you complain about something in person or via phone, get it documented. Paper/emails, keep all of them, at least until they give your security deposit back. In my case, they had all records except my in-person complaint and the work that was done about it. Even their former property manager did not make a note in his inspection report that I had an issue with the apartment. I was able to find exact dates of when everything happened. But even after that, they said they had no records of any work regarding my issue. Make sure they provide work reports after it is done. I didn't get any and should have asked. By the way, in the place I'm living now I get reports with a full description of repairs via email which I think is how it's supposed to be done. Never let them do a move-out inspection alone and always take pictures after you vacate the apartment. I have never had a pet but they found bleaching stains and claw markings and didn't even take pictures. When I was reading people's bad reviews, I had doubts about stories on carpet cleaning charges after the carpet was professionally cleaned by a tenant. Now I believe them. Packages get stolen everywhere, and this place is not an exception. The ladies in the office are not going to help you because it's not their responsibility. The best they can do is double check the mailroom. A few words about the thermostat. My apartment was kind of cold because there were quite big spaces in the wall around the AC. Sealing them helped a little but didn't solve the problem. The thermostat was oddly placed on the external wall while it's supposed to be on the internal. It didn't really show the temperature in the apartment but rather outside. So it was messing with the heater which kept turning on and off, or was always on when it wasn't needed. Here, you don't pay electric bills through your PICO account. They post all bills (which are an environmental fee, sewer, water, electric) in your tenant portal. Some people might find it convenient but I'd rather do it through PICO. read more

If I could give a 0 out of 5 I would. Our father moved into the 1 bedroom apt there over 2 years ago. He originally had a washer/dryer in the unit. Shortly later the washer/dryer broke. They took almost 2 months to try and send maintanence to fix It. Meanwhile our father who was in a wheelchair and paralyzed in one leg was forced to go down 7 floors and use the laundromat. Instead of EVER replacing it, they removed the unit. So now it COST him addition money to use THEIR machines and he needed special assistance to get a laundry basket down there because of his wheelchair. Towards the end of his lease he was found on the floor of his apartment which he needed 911 to bring him to the hospital. He did NOT reside in his apartment for the final 4 months due to being in the hospital and then finally on hospice. He never returned because we sadly lost him in March. Management made zero effort to pro rate anything even when offered the death certificate. They are NOW with holding our security deposit for walls that need to be painted and a new fridge door fixture?!!!!!!! Not only withholding the deposit but also CHARGING more then the $500!!!! I have never heard of ANY place charging additional for normal costs to prepare a unit for the next tenant. They REFUSE to make any effort in returning emails or calls. And trust me we have left plenty. I wouldn't recommend putting a stray dog in their place. Unethical and completly ignorant people. read more

Horrible management communication. Cleaning fees basically 300$ no matter what even if you get your own private cleaner. They say a total and then change it to their benefit and over charge breaking lease fees for no reason. I've lived at 3 other complexes never had these problems. Update they only contacted me after writing this review. Prior to this review I was ignored when I tried calling and emailing. "If it is your position to leave the posts up on Yelp and elsewhere, I will have to consider this matter closed and direct you back to collections." They will not look into my file unless I take my review down. Horrible way to handle a business. First you handle the client then you worry about your review not the other way around. Consider all other options before signing to live here. read more

Center Square Towers - Apartments Near Me - Doylestown, Pennsylvania

NO! Look somewhere else. This apartment is the worst!! - Bob doesn't know how to manage a property. - I was lied to and deceived multiple times by the tenant office employees. - Elderly people are everywhere - Had multiple power outages that lasted days. They even have a noisy generator they failed to use for at least 48 hours while the elderly were on air supplies, special medical equipment, etc. They didn't care. In fact, Bob ran and left the situation completely. He was nowhere to be found. - Parking is horrific and I parked & walked from a nearby lot on many many occasions just to get home - You can do better. It's inevitable that if you live here that you will regret it read more

DO NOT rent at CENTER SQUARE TOWERS. BOB PHILLIPS is unprofessional and a jerk. He screwed up on his job and instead of taking responsibility, he is menacing and acts like a major jerk. Management here is not unprofessional and a JERK! Center Towers were owned by Aimco and the office then were friendly and professional. They helped me place my mother in this facility and they changed ownership to ZENCORR. With that a really unprefessional management team... Bob screwed up and returned my "deposit" that I made with original "Aimco" team to the wrong fmaily member after my mother's passing and instead of apology - Bob has been menacing. Not taking any responsibility and saying that I have no standing if I would take this to court. Epecially, when my husband was the co-signer and I was the point person and I checked in with Bob many times to make sure he was doing his job correctly and provided him with my the address many times but he still screwed up and returned to the wrong person and basically gave me the finger. Anyone out there know that you can not return a deposit to another person and think that that is ok? This place is a racket and unprofessional. If I did take you to court Bob, I would win - you bully. read more

Run! This place nickel and dimes you for everything. It's in your lease but they never tell you, water, sewer, trash, pest control, and electric is NOT part of your rent. All adds up to over 200 extra dollars a month. Parking is horrible. Walking 200 yards with groceries. The place smells. Appliances are garbage. Can't even fit a pizza in the stove. If you have complaints the management will try to evict you. Also YOU WILL NOT GET BACK YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT! read more

I've lived here for 4 months now. I've been very pleasantly surprised. The building itself (I'm on the 5th floor) is very nice with a good view, the leasing staff and maintenance staff are great, location couldn't be much better, residents are a pleasure - I just can't say enough good about my experience. Very nice! read more

I've lived in Center Square Towers almost a year. I really enjoy living here. Its safe, quiet, cannot hear anyone in neighboring apartments, love the staff they are so personable and helpful, its clean, and I really enjoy my neighbors. My studio apartment is small, but exactly what I wanted and needed. The balcony is larger than anywhere else I've seen and I can have my dog! The new patio recently installed is beautiful and I look forward to using it in warmer weather. The patio fire pit is a nice gathering place. For me, it's The best of all worlds! read more

Very nice complex right in the heart of Doylestown. Walking distance to shopping centers and to down town restaurants and bars. Only have 1 bedrooms and studio apartments, so if you are looking for bigger 2 bedroom units, this isn't the place for you. The complex is a twin building with two eight-story towers. All the floors, except first, have very large balconies which really add some nice space to the apartment, especially in warmer summer months. The staff is very nice and friendly and always there to take care of your needs. They have full time service folks and most issues are resolved within a day or two. Parking is a little tight but I know they are in the process of adding more parking to alleviate the congestion. Only real negative is the property, and some of the units, are a little dated, but ownership seems to be putting some money into sprucing the place up throughout. They recently added a nicer lobby, a very nice outdoor courtyard with gas fire pit, and a nice size gym. All-in-all this is a great apartment, especially considering if you like to be in Doylestown. No other place like it that I'm aware of. PS - I really like the online tenant portal. Really cool how I can manage my payments and submit service requests right from a phone app. I even get text messages from the staff when packages arrive and I need to stop by the office to pick them up. Way cool and super convenient. read more

I guess this place is okay if it's the only thing you can afford and you'd like to live in a safe area. Other than that - expect a lot of disappointment. To begin, there is a 0% chance you will have your GUARENTEED parking if you come home past 7-8PM on weekdays or 9PM on weekends. You will have to park in the parking garage about half a mile away and walk home. They threaten to tow people who don't have parking tags, I have been here for a year and have yet to see ANY tow trucks and know more than half this lot is filled with untagged cars. Power is funky. If you have anything that you like to leave plugged in that has specific settings, just don't. Power comes in and out randomly for no reason. Also, expect to lose power for days on end during any snow storm without any idea of when you will have power again because all communication is blurred. The generators happened to be shot this year, so good luck if you get in on the 8th floor! As for community annoyances, I might just be cranky but isn't there something incredibly frustrating about trying to pick up a package and receiving an attitude while doing so? ALL packages go through the front office and they will ask you multiple times if you have a slip on your mailbox. If you don't (even though you know your package is there), you will be getting some serious sass. It's the end of the world. Also regarding the community, the older residents have no filter when it comes to talking about you while you're standing feet away from them. Lastly, the gym is anything but a gym. But like I said, this is an ok place if you can't spend much on rent and want to feel safe. Now I'm off to take a cold shower because the water heater is broken and won't be fixed for 3 more days! :) Let's just be happy they fixed the elevators, right? read more

A great place to call "home". The entire staff always greet you with a smile and are very helpful to our needs, and are quick to attend to any problems that arise . The grounds and facilities are kept clean every day. The workout rooms are open 24//7 and are rarely crowded. The grounds are well kept and lovely with the occasional deer and bunnies making a cameo. I love the convenience of the DART service and well lit parking. I live alone here and could not feel safer with the staff and common area 24/7 surveillance. A beautiful neighborhood to boot with parks and trails and the DART hourly busing service." New owners are updating the Apartments and facilities too. Highly recommend. Pet friendly too boot !!! read more

Center Square Towers is an excellent place to live! The studio apartment is just the right size for me! They have larger ones too. Walk to Doylestown downtown or Doylestown Shopping Center is very close by. A secure building with friendly staff and residents. I've been here two years and there's nothing bad to say. They opened it to all ages over a year ago. That bad review is way off!! If you have a maintenance problem they're quick to work on it. They leave a note on the door if you're not home and they have to go in without you. The AC/heat works great. In the winter the sidewalks are cleared and salted if icy. Even in this last winter they kept up with it! You can enjoy your own company or be around others. There are common rooms at the end of the first floor hallways with TVs and seating. There's a card room with regularly scheduled games, a pool table in another room (and some good players here) and there's a large room for gatherings of all sorts. There's also a small workout room. And a library with books and DVDs. Two laundry rooms too! The company that bought the building last year replaced all the washers and dryers in both laundry rooms. They really cleaned up the whole place and replaced the carpet in the common areas and painted, plus replaced the old furniture. It looks great. They're working on the outside too. Gradually more changes continue to make it a great place to live. The office and management staff are friendly and helpful and very patient with the many inquiries they get from residents. They have electronic announcements in the lobby and office window on a TV that lets you know what's going on. They also have an intercom system that announces fire drills or whatever else is needed for us to know to be safe and secure. I love it here and highly recommend it! Come look for yourself! You'll be glad you did! read more

I moved into the Center Square Towers a week ago and I'm very happy. My studio apartment is very pleasant and comfortable. The staff is very nice and personable and attentive to this community and it's residents. Grounds and other common areas of the property are clean. The other tenants I have met have been friendly. I am glad I have made this my new place to live!!! read more

I was one of the first tenants who moved in when they changed it to renting to all ages. I paid $680 which was totally appropriate for my apartment size. It was a studio, less than 600 sq feet but it was perfect for just me. The price is the only positive thing I can say... #1. The snow removal was HORRIBLE! Or I should say there was no snow removal and the guy sitting in the plow truck sat there and watched me struggle to get out of my parking spot. Side walks were never salted. #2. There was a leak in the middle of the night above my apartment. I was awaken and scares shitless by BANGING on my door at 1am-4am. No call. Just banging. After the leak, there was a small water mark on my wall. A couple days later, it was painted over, which is fine, BUT someone entered my apartment without permission while I was at work. I wouldn't have known, expect for the fact that there were things moved around and not put back in their place. #3. Poor communication since they installed a system where I could let people in the front door by pressing a button on my phone instead of having to come all the way down every time I had a guest. I found out from dominoes delivery guy who asked me why my extension doesn't work at the main door to let him in. #4. The countertops in the kitchen and bathroom are CHEAP! You would have no idea just looking at them, but my powder that I use on my face stained the countertop in the vanity in the bathroom. Just Powder... That should not happen. And forget about cooking without staining anything. Spaghetti sauce ruined the counter next to the stove. I could continue but I think you get the gist. Do not rent here. read more
