It has been a good place to stay for two students

Overall, my husband and I enjoy living in B9. Our apartment is super nice and decently spacious. We have a lot of storage with great closets and lots of cabinets in the kitchen. I also love having a small patio. It is definitely pricey but we chose it for a great apartment with laundry and parking plus the proximity to classmates and the grocery store.

B9 is one of the priciest options but the studio is a great deal. Location-wise is awesome, a couple of steps away from HT and other popular apartment complexes in the area. Management is really nice and they enforce rules strictly (this might play against if you like to party). Really happy with the apartment and overall experience.

good place to live, close to fuqua, very social, and great amenities

Great apartments and complex.
Managment attitude is a downer. Treats residents as its employees.

The apartment itself is pretty decent. I haven’t had any serious problems with plumbing, appliances, etc. Considering there are a lot of Duke students, the building is pretty quiet all hours of the day. Having the parking ramp right outside your apartment is awesome. Very convenient to grocery stores, coffee shops, restaurants, etc.

My main issues have been with the management. They are slow to respond to issues - for example, I was charged for additional storage units that I didn’t rent for a number of months. They eventually fixed the problem, but it was frustrating nonetheless. As well, they are quick to fine for small things, including leaving your valet trash can out after pick up.

Nicest apartment I’ve ever lived in. Management is sub-par (not very helpful or responsive) but the quality of apartment makes it worth it.

I've loved living at Berkshire. The location is perfect (right next to Harris Teeter/restaurants/Ninth St and two shuttle stops that drop you off directly in front of the hospital), it's great for anyone who has dogs (seriously I think there are more amenities for dogs than people), and everything is fairly new within the last 5 years. The clubhouse/main office also has a great conference room for studying. Downside is it's definitely among the more expensive options in Durham. As a result, I think my roommate and I are the only medical students living there (as opposed to somewhere like Trinity where half the class typically lives), but it definitely hasn't been isolating or anything, just something to be aware of. Nothing but good things to say!

This is definitely on the more expensive end of Durham rentals. But this is what we wanted when we moved here. Great property, great amenities, close to the hospital and Harris Teeter

The apartment complex is great - management is responsive and organized. The facilities are well taken-care of and clean. The apartments are very nice and large - new appliances in the kitchen and large closets. The gym is fantastic and the pool and BBQ areas are very nice!
