1717 Evanston Review
Big issues: Easy to lost delivery items. Small mailroom.
Other issues: No 24 hours front desk or door man. Expensive electricity which is not covered in base rent. Small swimming pool with poor water quality. Poor temperature control system.
Pros: Very quiet with thick walls. Gym is not too crowd. Outside the walking zone but near 201 bus stop.
Cons: Far from campus. 25 min walk from Tech

Horrible
Overpriced, awful management, terrible communication, average amenities, cheap appliances. Do not move here!

Horrible Management
Management has changed numerous times, one of the least organized apartments I’ve ever seen. One month after we signed our lease renewal, they told us they needed to redo our balcony and that they recommended we move to a new unit. The management was disrespectful and borderline cruel with how they managed that entire situation, pretending they knew nothing about the patio renovation before we signed the lease, when clearly they had. Other mistakes include reassigning our parking to other people twice, ignoring complaints about vandalism on our car,

It's Okay
Our unit is spacious, but lacking in kitchen and storage space. Appliances in the unit feel outdated but work okay. The gym is pretty small with not that many machines. Convenient walking distance to downtown Evanston and also to E2 for Kellogg events. New management has been much more responsive than the previous group.

Rough move in but good experience overall
MOVE IN was rough. Our appliances did not work - we were given 3 dryers in less than 24 hours. On the plus side, once I got their attention and asked them to prioritize it, it was taken care of (although 3 dryers in 24 hours is not convenient for anyone involved). The apartment was also dirty - stains on the floors, kitchen had unknown cooking substances built up everywhere, discolored cabinets and corners. I was able to take care of some of it and living with the rest.
Beyond that, great apartment complex. Just switched ownership in December 2021. More family-oriented (LOTS of dogs), less engaging community. If you are looking for a quiet, solid spot, this could be it. If you’re looking for community and new features, look elsewhere.

Great for Kellogg Students
1717 is a nice building with lots of Kellogg students - management is responsive, it's close to the other main Kellogg apartments, not too far from the Hub, and is a quiet building. It doesn't have the nicest finishings but is a little cheaper than some of the other big apartment complexes and the units are a bit larger as well.

Best Value
In my opinion, 1717 offers the best value of higher-end amenities. Units are large, the gym is great, and the pool is great.

Beautiful space more quiet but close to E2 and Kellogg; good value
Live with 3 roomates. We are very happy with the space and have enjoyed our time at 1717. Definitely recommend living here. Close to E2 and Kellogg. Plently of parking spaces for cars and the gym is well lit and nicer than E2. No basketball court, however. The outdoor space and pool is nice too in the summer for grilling and chilling. Free coffee in the morning too. Management is pretty relaxed

Very decent
Of the renting options that allow dogs, 1717 is by far the best value (given rent for space and amenities) that I could find. It is really nice to have the courtyard for the doggo friends and is only ~20 minutes to the Hub!
