The apartment is nice and has a great view. The bathroom and the kitchen could be better. I think that there are some renewed apartments in Regents, but mine is not.
The gym is ok, although the equipment they offer is not new.
The maintenance is not good. To ask for a service, you have to open a work order online and they rarely show up on the scheduled time. To make sure that they will show up, you have to keep calling Mac Properties.
The good things about Regents are that a lot of students live here and that it is close to the University.

Apartment itself is fine. Housing is spacious, windows are nice, location is good. Lots of law students here, so it feels sort of like a grown up dorm building which can be fun but can also potentially get old. Maintenance can be slow, but so far I'm satisfied with everything since the price is so reasonable. The 172 comes right to the corner so it is very convenient. The management is not good - move-in was a disaster. If at all possible, try to move in on a weekday! Reserve the freight move-in elevator many weeks in advance!

I have had a terrifically positive experience with this apartment - I have a gorgeous lake view, a ton of space, a terrific roommate, and no complaints about anything within the apartment. The complex is large though, so sometimes getting packages from the package room can be challenging, and every now and again an elevator is malfunctioning such that it takes a long time to get up/down from the apartment. I haven't had a need to put in a maintenance request, but I have heard mixed things regarding the speed with which requests get completed. Overall, I think the onsite staff are super nice and want to be helpful, the neighbors are lovely, the apartment is spacious, and the commute to UChicago is easy.

Pretty Good

Great amenities, great location

Regents Park is convenient for LLMs because many of us live there. The gym is ok, the laundry is ok too. However, a few of us have had problems with the concierge misplacing deliveries, so every now and then there are stories of people not receiving their packages.

There are pros and cons to living in Regent Park. The perks are a spacious room, a great view, and completed amenities. The maintenance here is a bit slow. It's OK if you are patient. I also found small roaches in the kitchen (which a pest control came to help with) and got a smell from a neighbor when they cooked (they opened their door = =''). Overall, it's overpriced, but being able to be surrounded by your law school friends is a plus! My concern before signing the contract was the carpeting floor, but it turned out to be better and I didn't have any allergy issues living here.

Regents is a good place to live while you do the LLM, comparatively speaking. The place is old and it kinda smells, but it's close to the bus, 53rd, and other students, which makes it safer than being somewhere on your own. They do try to attend to maintenance, though it can be slow. It's spacious, warm and dry. The gym is a bit bare and run down, but you can get a workout in. The laundry works fine, though not for white clothes.

Generally, the apartment is good. Though, one can see that it hasn’t been renovated for a long time.

Regents apartment is a convenient solution for international students. I would not recommend it to couples and even less to families.
