  • Best apartments in Akron. Period.

    August 26, 2025
    I have lived here for several months now but when I was searching for a place downtown, I immediately knew this was going to be the place as soon as I toured it. Lori responded to my request for a tour within a very short time of sending the email, and I was viewing apartments the same day. I had sent requests for apartments all over, mostly Testa properties in Akron like the Bowery, and the Goodrich, but it was literally months before anyone from Testa responded to my multiple emails requesting ...
    a tour. (I was already in the process of moving in to 159 when the Testa representative responded. The prices are market fair and lower than others because other apartments are jacking up prices and so lots of people I know are leaving places like the Bowery, standard on main, and others to move to this building. It has a perfect position, right next to civic theatre and lock 3. I can see the lock3 from my window and watch/hear concerts if I choose but if I keep the window shut, noise isn't loud enough to bother. Lori is very attentive and works very hard to care for every tenant, knows everyone by name and is constantly putting in efforts to make sure everyone is happy, it genuinely is a nice community and surprisingly very quiet. The building is very secure, you need key code entry to get in after 6pm and on weekends, a code to get past the 4th floor to the apartment floors, and of course a code for the apartment door, all managed from a phone app if you prefer (or entered manually). The amenities are great, fitness room, office space, trash chute on every floor. The apartments are well designed and beautiful inside. I love living here so close to the action but also quietly peaceful as needed. I can walk out my door and be right smack dab in the middle of the summer weekend festivals or walk to lock3 for whatever they have going on. Walking distance from bars, restaurants, pretty much everything you need (except a grocery store but that's the city of Akron issue and not 159). If you are considering moving to downtown Akron and 159 is an option for you, stop looking and choose 159 - before it's at 100% capacity which it is very close to at this point I believe.

  • Great building, amenities, and staff

    August 21, 2025
    I’ve lived in the building about 8 months now and I love my apartment - it’s big and spacious and has all the same bells and whistles of the larger apartments, even though mine is a studio. Lori in the leasing office has gone above and beyond for me, she is very committed to keeping her tenants happy and I think she’s the best there is!

  • Friendly staff with a "how can we help" attitude

    June 18, 2025
    The staff makes a difference. Lori, the property manager, and Monica, the bookkeeper, are great resources. As soon as I moved in, I was handed a welcome packet with things to do in Akron and Lori always knew what was happening downtown. I requested to have an adjustment to my lease due to being accepted into a pre-med program and Monica helped to make it happen...a great place to live but the staff is what takes it to the next level. :)

  • Great place, Great location, Great staff

    April 12, 2025
    Visiting our daughter, we have stayed here twice in the extra apartments. The small touches to make us comfortable and the quick response of staff to any need is amazing. Easily walkable locations, clean, user friendly access make it well worth the stay. We love 159 Main and staff!

  • Great Apartment

    December 18, 2024
    Best apartment complex that I have lived in. Nice apartments with good amenities in the middle of downtown Akron. The game changer is the staff. Lori does such a good job making you feel like you are at home. My dog since he was 3 months old and I would visit her every morning and she was always such a joy to be around. My dog also enjoyed the daily treats he would receive. Many memories were made and I will miss living at 159 Main.

  • Fantastic Updated Apartments

    October 1, 2024
    I lived here for 1-year before I had to move for work. I've I didn't havwe to move I would have stayed here for many years. These apartments are amazing. Totally updated and remodeled. High-tech features and systems throughout building. Management is fast and responsive! I looked at many buildings and apartments in the area before I leased this one and this building was the best! Great location too.

  • Excellent

    August 14, 2024
    159 provided me with a MUCH needed three month lease when the 401 lofts would not and left me out to dry. 159 is an EXCELLENT place to live with excellent, kind staff who genuinely care about their tenants. VERY kind. Monica and Lori and both excellent. I would highly recommend this residence. Maintenance staff Mr. Givens is also kind and excellent. A great place to live.

  • Great property and outstanding service

    May 2, 2024
    Lived at 159 S. Main for 2+ years. It was a great experience. Units are top notch, comfortable and cozy. Highly recommended! But more importantly the level of service is outstanding. The local and broader support team is extremely responsive, committed and dedicated.

  • Best property in downtown Akron

    April 18, 2024
    We needed a place within walking distance of work in downtown Akron (the First Energy building) and decided to rent at 159 S, Main after looking at several other properties. The property is a great mix of modern (the apartment units themselves are stylish and up to date), old (the building was completed in 1911), convenient (it is connected to the Akron Skywalk system) and quirky (the building has a trapezoidal shape, not a rectangular one). The property manager is local – not remote – and ...
    she and her team really make the effort to get to know their tenants. You don’t feel like just another number on the books of some remote corporate entity somewhere. If our work location wasn’t changing, we would definitely be staying. It’s a wonderful property and we highly recommend it to anyone thinking about downtown Akron.

  • Amazing community

    August 9, 2023
    This place is amazing. The apartment is very comfortable and the people who works there are always willing to help. Lori finds the way to go above and beyond while making us feel comfortable. She was very kind and loving to my kids and myself. At the beginning I thought it was because of us, but later I realized it was the same with everyone. Glen, María and Melissa the same. If something arise, even if it wasn't related to the apartment, they will jump to give advise and help. I only have words ...
    of gratitude for the time I rented at 159 S main. Thank you!

  • Best apartment I've ever stayed in!

    June 24, 2023
    This apartment is seriously the coolest place I've ever stayed at! It's got this modern vibe that's totally refreshing, and the staff is just awesome. They're always super communicative, helpful, and they even throw in free events for us. Every time I see them, they've got a big smile on their faces and a fantastic attitude. And don't even get me started on the amenities—they've got it all covered. Plus, it's literally right across the street from Lock 3, where all the best festivals and events ...
    go down. Trust me, you won't find a better spot than this!
