Good community option at the right price

The apartments here get the job done at the right price point, but the services provided are far less than those offered at competing locations (73E, Mila). Would recommend these for couples or sponsored/scholarship students if possible. Community in MPP is good to have, though, and with so many Booth students in the building you see your classmates constantly, which is nice.

Good Enough for 2 Years

I probably wouldn't choose to live in MPP (or the Loop for that matter) if it weren't for Booth, but it's a good enough place while you're in business school.

MPP dorm

Elevators take forever and the air conditioning units are out of date. But it's a great apartment and location for the price!

MPP

Having a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom is a great deal in downtown Chicago for the price. One of the rooms is a master bedroom with an attached walk-in closet and bathroom. The building itself is ok - there's been issues with the elevators recently. Also one thing to consider living in MPP is that sometimes there will be lines of people (Boothies) to get up to the floors due to us all coming back from same event.

Great for your b school experience

I have absolutely no regrets about living in MPP for business school. If having nice appliances, amenities, apt gym, etc. matters to you, then I would recommend MILA or E73. But if you're looking for an affordable apt that just gets the job done, I'd recommend MPP.

Solid value for what you pay. Don't except quiet or nice amenities though.

You get what you pay for in the Loop. This building is very affordable, especially for graduate students. However, the trade offs are less than responsive management staff, extreme street noise from Michigan Ave, a less than stellar gym (worse than a hotel), a useless pool, communal laundry, and various other average amenities. Convenience to Metra is great.

You Get What You Pay For

It is by far the cheapest option in the area. Overall, it is a very good bargain for Chicago, especially in the Loop. However, the elevators are rickety, and I've been trapped several times. Management has no desire to replace them, and probably because of the high cost. Also, it is very noisy, but I think that is the area, not apartment-specific. I lived in Chicago 4 years prior to this and was surprised by the noise level at MPP.

Reviewed by UChicago Law Student living at The Tides
Very secure and tranquil. Very close to public transportations. Namely millennium station which I use to ride the Metra trains to campus.
Very close to the lake and navy pier
Great park surrounded by all the buildings.
There’s good supermarket that has everything. A couple restaurants and coffee shops are also there.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Mila
Amazing place to have a social life! It is super close to Gleacher and to where recruiting events take place. Most Boothies live in this area and that helps creating a nice community. West loop with amazing restaurants is 2 metro stops/5min uber. TNDCs also happen walking distance. Its also where most touristic attractions are so its great for when friends/family visit you.
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Millennium Park Plaza
Safe neighborhood and good because it’s where most Booth students live but it’s a little sterile esp at night. Lots of tourists around. I would not live in this neighborhood if most other students didnt live here. However it is convenient to get to most places around chicago. In the middle of everything
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at Columbus Plaza Apartments
Columbus plaza is on the quieter side, a few blocks away from Michigan. Tides and park millennium are even quieter but lack the river views that CP offers. It can be a bit too empty at night, which may be of concern to some. Most of the nearby restaurants in the pedway focus on serving office workers so they close around 6pm. Great access to river walk for running or biking.
Reviewed by Northwestern Medill Student living at 215 West
The Loop has pros and cons. Living in the Loop is nice because during the day up until about 8 p.m. there are people walking around the streets which is nice because you feel more secure walking. However, on weekends and after a certain time at night it empties and it can be a little eerie.

That being said, if you're anywhere near State St. or the Mag mile, there's pretty much people around at any given hour. It's fun to live downtown because the streets are bustling with interesting people, sometimes there's live music on street corners and there are a lot of restaurants and shops.
Reviewed by Working Professional living at The Tides
Beautiful area in a great location with a dog park, playground, and full service grocery store in short walking distance. Restaurants and transit are just ok in this area, but not a bad walk to the "L" and that opens up the restaurant options. No close-by childcare for kids under preschool age, but great preschool and private elementary school, with high price tags. Ubers often find this place impossible to locate due to GPS's going crazy with the multiple layers of Wacker, Randolph, Columbus, and East South Water Street.
Reviewed by Chicago Resident living at Pittsfield Building
The Loop is an unlikely place to live but I love it. You are in the heart of the city, close to every L line possible, very good restaurants and walking distance to River North without paying River North prices for apartments. Apartments are smaller throughout the neighborhood but if you are an urbanite and don't mind limited closet space you will love it here. Mostly everyone is walking distance to work.
Reviewed by Chicago Resident living at Oakwood 200 Squared
Great location close to blue, brown, green, pink, orange and red lines. 10 minute walk to State St., 5-10 minutes to River North, 15 minutes to Michigan Avenue. Grocery stores aren't really walkable but most people in the building use PeaPod/Instacart. Safe to walk around at night. A lot of new restaurants (quick service) opening in the area.
