Great apartment
Great location on square. Doorman. Very helpful and responsive maintenance staff. Reasonable rent. All condo owned. Mostly older population / less Wharton students, but in proximity to other buildings with more students, so nice to have a bit of privacy.

Love this place!
I have a beautiful, spacious, sunny studio with a wall of windows and an amazing view. The place is well-managed and well-taken-care-of. It's great to live right over Rittenhouse Square. The building is a nice, quiet space to come home to. The building is on the older side but it has character, and I have never had issues with pests. Maintenance issues are taken care of promptly. Units are privately owned. Laundry is downstairs. The only downside is that you can't get A/C cooling in the winter (only heat), so it can get warm when the sun is shining; a large fan fixes this issue though.

Old building in great location
Most of the other residents are older but there are some other students here and there. People are generally friendly. The fire alarm or electricity goes off on occasion but not too frequently (less than once a month). It's an old building. The gym is a bit small and also old with dated equipment. Laundry room on the 1st floor, you pay by loading a card. I've never had an issue getting packages from the front desk. Wonderful view of Rittenhouse Square Park if your apartment faces north. ~10-minute walk to BSL and the 12 bus stop is right outside.

Comfortable, no frills apartment in good location
The apartment has been fine. The management is responsive to work requests, and the staff are very friendly. There is a nice gym and an adequate laundry facility. The location on Rittenhouse Square is excellent. There are many long-term residents in the building who are friendly. Not as many common spaces or fancy amenities as in newer buildings.

Very comfortable but some headaches
I've lived in this apartment my whole time in Philly and in general have been really happy with it. The location is hard to beat, it's extremely safe, maintenance is responsive and it's great to have a front desk to securely receive packages and hold a spare key. That said, it's a big building with some of the associated headaches; there are some floors where units aren't kept clean and consequently there are rodent and roach problems (have only seen once or twice in my unit over years). Also, I've had a lot of problems with building maintenance affecting my unit, like leaks coming into my apartment from the unit above -- it gets cleaned up pretty quickly but I still have to deal with the intrusion of repairmen and damage to my belongings.

Studio at the Savoy
This apartment is absolutely perfect for what I was looking for. It's a cozy studio with giant windows that take up the length of the room (facing south so get tons of great light). The kitchen has new appliances, including dishwasher.
Building itself has been great so far. Very nice front desk and maintenance staff. It's a lot of Philadelphia residents versus Wharton students, which I appreciate because it's nice having a space that feels removed from the social scene. Perfect location on Rittenhouse Sq Park. I think I pay $30/month for the gym, which is basic but has everything I need (TVs, good AC, usually empty). Laundry room is also nice and clean and never crowded.

Savoy
Good apt, some old building issues with water and wish the gym membership was included. But can’t beat living right on Rittenhouse Square with relatively cheap rent!

Great management, safe building
Very safe, great location. Other units say they've had bad pest problems (mice and roaches) -- I've only seen a mouse once in several years, roaches very occasionally in warmer weather. Building is very safe with 24/7 front desk, can receive packages, dry cleaning, etc. Units are owned individually so they vary a lot in terms of finishing, renovation, etc. On site gym is nice but costs extra.

Rittenhouse Square Reviews
Spruce Street in particular is great - it's a little south of the square, so is quieter/shielded from a lot of the traffic that the neighborhood gets, but it's not out of the way or far away. There's a Starbucks, a grocery store (Rittenhouse Market), and a few corner stores (Four Seasons and Food & Friends) within a 2-3 minute walk of my apartment.
