I do not recommend it

I lived at both the 8th floor and 9th floor apartments in the 3 years I was there. In just those 3 years, the quality of the place went down. From trashcans by the elevators and routinely being cleaned to no trashcans by the elevator at all. Half the dumbbells and equipment in the gym missing. In the three years I have been there they were already on their third property manager. The garage doors and elevators regularly breakdown. They only have one maintenance person for the whole building. The property has good spacing and is in a good location if you need or want to be in downtown Baltimore. Some of the people on my floor were good too. However, at this point most of them are leaving if they have not done so already. Overall the biggest issue seems to be poor management from my perspective. When my heater broke out during the holidays in November 2023 when it was freezing cold and it took two weeks for my heater to get fixed, the Regional Director sent me a $100 discount on the rent for my troubles. I couldn't tell you how disrespectful that was. I took them to escrow, prorated the rent by the two weeks I was without heat and terminated my lease.

Quite, good maintenance

Good maintenance services.

Location is a little shady, a lot of homeless people. But overall a good place to stay. Nice spacious rooms. Loving room and bedrooms are quite large. Kitchen is new and has all you need including microwave, stove, and fridge.

Reviewed by Baltimore Law Student living at 611 Park Avenue
Mount Vernon has restaurants, bars, shops, and multiple grassy areas near the monument. It's a great place to walk around. It's a very communal space. Nearby schools are UB, UMD, MICA, and JHU Peabody. Bus transit near the monument. The Walters Art Museum is very close by. UB is about a 15 minute walk and 5 minute drive from 611 Park.

Area is nearby Mount Vernon, which is very charming. Good restaurants, nice walking area. If you are into night life, however, this apartment may not be for you. The area nearby the building is very quiet at night.

Great place to visit museums, restaurants, and historical monuments. Not too far from the law school, and the UMB Shuttle can get you to school in about 10 minutes
Reviewed by Baltimore Law Student living at The Mount Royal
There isn’t too much near by in comparison to other locations in Baltimore, but it is in the middle of the city so it is easy to get places. There isn’t a grocery store nearby, which is probably the biggest con.
Reviewed by Baltimore Law Student living at The Mount Royal
UMd Police presence is fairly high, so the area feels reasonably safe. Fairly well lit, and fairly heavily traveled given its location with UB and UMd.
Have only been offered crack once in two years.

This area of Baltimore is not necessarily super busy. The nightlife and restaurant scene is abysmal in this spot, but there are several, easy ways to get into Federal Hill or Fell's Point.

Additionally, this area is not known to be a super safe area of Baltimore, but since we are located so close to the school, there is constant security around. I have never felt unsafe walking to and from school and my apartment.
Reviewed by UMD Resident living at Chesapeake Commons
On the very south edge of Mt Vernon. Pretty quiet, some good restaurants/a few bars around. Easy to casually go out, or travel a bit for more aggressive nightlife. Less safe area about 1 block south, but very safe north.
Reviewed by Baltimore Law Student living at The Mount Royal
Good bar/restaurant scene, right next to the train/bus station. Some crime but can't help that.
