The walls are solid, so you don't get to hear the Section 8 neighbors fighting and throwing things. And it is close to downtown. Now the bad. Section 8. Drug dealers that live in the building that are not dealt with. This alone requires its own section. If you look like a girl from The Boom Boom Room, you get a spot. This is given out by management preference. There are people that have lived in the building for over a year, and they are on "the list", but SEVERAL people that park in the back of the building have been there less than a year. Bring the pepper spray if you come in after dark. You may run into homeless people that have snuck in, or are let in by people. &&& This is a plea for all of those who are considering living in these apartments.....Please don't, for your own safety!!! The building is falling apart literally, there is garbage in the halls, cigarrette butts, broken heaters,and broken windows. Not to mention the fact that it smells like rotting garbage in the halls. Praking lot- Night mare Bike Garage- un safe Security- None Rental office- Don't Care Laundry Rooms- Disgusting Trash Dumpsters- A homeless home Buildings/Neighbors- Drug Raids, SWAT TEAM, Women getting beat up by their boyfriends, constant smell of weed! Police- Don't Care!!! Apartments- Rusty appliances, old stained carpeting, no hot water, cracks in walls, everthing needs to be fixed or replaced..... I think I have proved my point by now......

The apartments are so unique and offer the best square footage in comparison to any others in the area or that I've found even outside the city. The staff is amazing! Luke is the Property Manager and although I don't see him often, I can tell he is genuinely just a nice human. I've heard from staff themselves that he's great to work with. He also came to my apartment on a Sunday (I'm sure his day off) as I had a water alarm beeping and couldn't find it. He's open and requests feedback about the property and incorporates the feedback. I have two dogs so I've mentioned we should have a dog wash center, and we have one opening soon! I'm sure I'm not the sole reason and others have likely also requested but that just shows they listen to residents and take action. Daniel is amazing. He's friendly, helpful and obviously cares about his role and the residents. He's quick to reply, assist in anyway, and always happy to do so. I thankfully haven't needed a ton of maintenance but when I do need to submit a request they are quick to fix any issues. Rob is usually the maintenance guy that completes work orders these days and he's great at his job and super nice. He also is friendly with my dogs whenever he sees them (pretty much daily) and gives them ample pets. They get very excited whenever they see him. Anyway if you decide to rent mention that I referred you, *wink. You'll love living here!

The building also hosts a few events- a nice way to get to the know the neighbors. Charles, the guest experience manager is exceptional and both Aaron and Jann, who work in building maintenance, are the kindest and most wonderful people. I love the aesthetics (the brick is beautiful and the windows are so stunning), love the amenities, but it's the community that makes it feel like home. Highly recommend!

Next stop, will be reporting to law enforcement. Security at this building is HIGHLY questionable, a homeless man used their concierge phone to call my phone in the middle of the night trying to set up a "drug" deal. The fact that my contact information was exposed, or whatever else information was exposed is an example of the lack of professionalism with Doran Group and Mill and Main. Leasing Agent IQ Levels are questionable. Refusal of a fully qualified application due to an argumentative "agent" who's mathematical skills are non-existent. Denigrating insulting tone, badgering attitude, and a tumultuous breathtaking failure. They did nothing to attempt to salvage a 13 month lease application worth $20K. Disgusted and angry as I write this. No response, no apology, no sense whatsoever... Shame on this leasing team, avoid!!!

I can't believe the people who have reviewed this complex before were real tenants. Mill & Main has…read morethe absolute nicest staff I've ever dealt with, and they're so incredibly professional. The building is maintained as well as a hotel. The community rooms/amenities are spotless, the hallways are pristine and smell nice, and even the parking ramp is well-maintained. Maintenance issues, no matter how complex, are dealt with in the matter of several days, tops. The security guards manning the desk in the East building are courteous, professional, and will help you out to the best of their abilities. Another reviewer complained about not having been given access to an amenity at 11:45. Most everything stays open at night, and if it closes, it's because there's a liability present with personal safety or excessive noise (drunk people in the pool, perhaps?). There isn't a single property in the city that doesn't have set hours on the availability of certain amenities. Mill & Main has generous parking spots, a free car wash, and free underground guest parking. My friends all love coming to hang out at my apartment, because the building removes so many pain points from a typical 3rd-party visit. Bravo, Mill & Main. Keep up the good work.

I've lived at Fair Oaks for the past 6 years. This was during my residency training and medical…read moreschool. I am so grateful that I was able to call Fair Oaks my home during this challenging time. Having such beautiful, stress-free living arrangements was immeasurably helpful. The quiet, natural beauty of Fair Oaks' courtyard just out my back door and the amazing (and free!) Minneapolis Institute of Art just across the street provide daily sources of respite. My apartment's interior is also beautiful - with the charm of the building's historical origins yet very well-maintained and appropriately modernized. For me, it is also very important to live in an apartment that did not add any stress to my life. Fair Oaks achieves this on every level. - Every work order I've submitted has been completed in less than 12 hours, by extremely courteous and skilled maintenance people. - The landlords and front desk people are simply the best. So incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs. One small but telling example: one day my husband was exiting the courtyard and happened to run into our landlord, who noticed that my husband's key was sticking a bit in the gate lock. So, unprompted, our landlord gave my husband his own key. How's that for service. - Location. As a medical student and resident, I worked in several hospitals all across the Twin Cities, so a convenient, central location was important to me. Fair Oaks is situated very close to 94 and 35, which means that it is quick and easy to get anywhere in the Twin Cities. We are also very close to downtown which makes it easy to bike or cheap to cab/Uber there - very helpful for avoiding expensive downtown parking. Lastly, this is an awesome neighborhood to live in. In particular, Eat Street has really been growing in recent years, with new, exciting restaurants popping up every few months. It's fun to be able to walk to a variety of interesting bars/restaurants. - Security. Not only are the buildings and courtyards very secure, but via our adjacency to MIA and MCAD, we have the added security provided to those institutions (the security cars also circle our apartment block). I have never felt unsafe here. - Parking. I take advantage of the cheap garage parking. You get a spot assigned to you, so parking is guaranteed. Not having to worry about snow emergencies or scraping ice off my car in the mornings makes my life so much less stressful. On the other hand, if you want to save money, street parking is pretty easy as well. It's very rare not to be able to find parking on our block, usually only when there's a major event at MIA or Children's Theatre. My husband chooses to do street parking and it's been pretty convenient. It's also nice to have easy, free street parking when having company over. In summary, I can't say enough good things about Fair Oaks. When I first learned how inexpensive the rent is, I was in disbelief - I'd always assumed that these beautiful, ivy-covered brick apartment buildings that I'd see when exiting MIA must be very expensive. But they're not! Extremely affordable. The only reason we're moving out of Fair Oaks this year is because we're moving across the country. When we come back to Minneapolis, we plan to move back to Fair Oaks!

I only wish I could have stayed longer ! Beginning with Taryn (Lifestyle Director) as well as The building Director Rick, I was treated like ROYALTY! I felt like I had been a valued tenant for years. Moving in took place while I was at work and the 222 staff took care of everything. Cort delivered all the furnishings and they were supervised by the staff. I came home to a bottle of champagne and a free pizza from Whole Foods which as you know, is DOWNSTAIRS !! Every morning their are cleaners cleaning the entire building including the yoga studio, amazing gym over looking the city, and the area downstairs where you get free STARBUCKS every day ! I felt so good showing friends where I got to live. The amenities are everything. The building is really good about keeping community engaged and letting residents know what is happening in the North Loop. There are always scooters around and the best places to eat and drink. Getting packages and sending packages has never been easier with an Amazon locker downstairs ! There are printers and fax machines and computers in a quiet office area that residents can use. I cannot thank the staff at 222 Hennepin enough for being as kind and attentive every day as they are. This is not your standard service. You are paying for luxury and that is exactly what you get ! Check them out !!!! Thank you ! -Benjamin

It's always spotlessly clean (thanks Irma!). Nate, the maintenance manager is responsive, and always happy to go the extra mile. Bri and Alyvia in the office are friendly, hardworking and tenant communications are excellent. We live in a very urban environment so you have to be mindful of your surroundings. The building is secure and there's a security guard here (who lives in the building) from 6pm-6am and I feel safe. I love the diversity and occasionally gritty edge to the neighborhood, but it's just 3 blocks to the Farmers Market and 4 to the Saints stadium, so the suburbs invade us throughout the week in the summer. It's 3 blocks to the Mississippi for great walks and Mears Park has concerts all the time. Guest parking is metered on-street or parking ramps nearby, so a little tricky for entertaining large groups of friends. The 333 amenities (common/game/theater rooms, 24 hour coffee bar, gym and lounge next to the rooftop deck) are beautiful. I feel proud of where I live. The rent is at the top end of my budget though, and if it goes up much I'll have to move, but I love it while I can afford it.

I really like the common areas when I need to host some friends for a gathering. The areas are exceptionally clean, so we make sure to leave it the same way. Our packages are kept in room and an email is sent promptly when they arrive. The packages are organized in an easy to find fashion. Our neighbors are the best. If you have friends over they are respectful. We have a book club, seasonal get-togethers and art crawls. We do have many dog owners. I love the doggie biscuit pot at the entrance.
