Park Place Towers

I pay around $790/mo for rent, and it's a nice place. In an okay area, with a cute park with walking path. The gym has all the necessities, and the staff are great. The biggest downside is that the leasing office is really hard to get into contact wiht-- you really have to badger them. Also, the apartment comes with one parking space, any additional parking space is another $50 per month. I do like it! It's a spacious apartment with decent appliances.

In the 2-bedroom unit that my roommate and I live in, there is a big living room that receives lots of natural light from the windows. The kitchen is on the opposite wall of the windows, and has a reasonable amount of counter space. There is one room that is notably bigger than the other and has a bathroom in it, while the other bathroom is right outside the other bedroom. The appliances are all in working condition (microwave, stove, fridge, dishwasher, garbage disposal). Laundry is done on the first floor and costs money ($1.75 for washer, $2.25 for dryer). There is a pool and a gym that are fine.

An included gym and pool, a nice pathway secluded from the rest of Hartford to walk on, a covered garage. These are but a few of the quality things Park Place has to offer at a much more reasonable price than most other places out there. It's also a mile from campus which works for people who walk, bike or drive and don't want to waste too much gas. The laundry system kinda sucks and elevators don't display correct floors but other than that it's the best for what you get.
