The only negatives have been that the community manager can be hard to get ahold of, but she is extremely helpful when you do pin her down. My wife and I love our apartment and its location. It also has some great amenities, like a good (but small) gym, a rooftop patio with great views, and a theater room you can reserve.

I've lived here for two years before I started law school. We really liked living here so much so that when we renewed our lease, we decided to do a 3-year lease to lock in the rent. Maintenance was excellent. It is slower nowadays because there is only one maintenance guy. But they do try to get to you as fast as they can.

One downside is that you'd have to pay LuxerOne for your packages. But that's a fair thing to pay to protect your packages.

Living at Left Bank is a great option for law students--it's about a brisk 7-minute walk to the law school and is close to the Schuylkill River trail if you like walking or biking. It also has different lounges, including a conference room and a theater. On top of that, there is a rooftop with grills and a fire pit, as well as a space to "walk" your dog. The ceilings are quite tall, so the place feels very open and spacious, and many of the apartments have renovated kitchens and bathrooms. There also is a package room with a locker system, lots of garage spaces, and a decent gym.

I like my apartment; it serves my needs. The building is freshly renovated for the most part. The manager is very nice but can be hard to contact.

Excellent location. No ceiling lights though

The location is amazing, it's very close to Penn (my school), rooms are extremely spacious, square footage is MUCH better compared to other apartments in the area that are more expensive! Amenities are beautiful -- the gym has everything you could want, there are BEAUTIFUL common sitting spaces and a REALLY nice roof to host friends. Ceilings are really high which make for great acoustics. Only odd thing is that there are no ceiling lights so you need a few floor lamps.

I really enjoy living in Left Bank; it's relatively close to the law school building (about a 5-7 minute walk), the interior looks modern and spacious (high ceilings), and there are many amenities that tenants can take advantage of, such as the gym, study rooms, theater, community kitchen, and rooftop. It is a bit on the pricier side, but if you're planning on living with others, it's worth it!

The space is clean and well maintained. The location cannot be beat given the proximity to Penn and nearby restaurants.

I've lived in Left Bank for over two years. Great proximity to the law school while still being very accessible to center city. Most apartments are recently renovated and the maintenance team is great. I love the roof deck as a social or study space and the gym is pretty good. I will say that the security is not as good as it was when I first moved in. We no longer have 24/7 security and only one of the entrances ever has a guard.

The Left Bank is unbeatable from a location standpoint. It's a 10 minute walk to HUP Main and the Pavilion, while it's about 15 minutes to the VA or Penn Presbyterian walking. It takes about 20 minutes walking to get to the heart of center city and is right next door to the Schuylkill River trail which is incredible!

The units are spacious and depending on where you are also have great views of the city. There's a decent gym, nice rooftop, and community kitchens throughout the building. One big downside is the smell. It is pet friendly building which is great, but often times there is a lingering smell of pets, especially due to the carpet throughout the halls.

Overall it's a great building if being able to walk to the hospital is important for you. It's safe, has nice units, and very large kitchens.
