November 1, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com

Miss Kellee was very welcoming when I first came to tour the property. Her kindness is one of the reasons I moved in soon after. It is always nice to run into her, and she is always willing to help with my concerns.

Seemless Move-In and Great Place to Live

May 20, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com

From initial inquiry about availability to my actual move-in day everything was easy, communication was great, and there were no issues or concerns. Great overall experience. Kelee, the property manager, especially went above and beyond to expedite the move, which is much appreciated because I’ve experienced moves in the past where the property management staff is completely unhelpful or even antagonistic or retaliatory. That is far from the case here, and I’d like to thank Kelee especially for ...

not just making this moving process seemless and efficient but also making me feel so welcome upon my arrival on the mov -in date for my apt.

Property Manager Responded

May 21, 2025

Hi, We're glad to hear that your move-in experience was smooth and that our communication met your expectations. Thank you for recognizing Kelee for her efforts in making you feel welcome and ensuring an efficient transition. Your positive feedback motivates our team to continue providing great service. Wishing you all the best! The Fairfax Apartments Management Team

Amazing place to call home

November 23, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

I lived at Fairfax apartments for 3 years before my recent move due to a site relocation. Kelee, the property manager, is exceptional and goes above and beyond to take care of the residents at the apartment building. I could not have asked for a better living experience! Routine maintenance requests are promptly addressed. Great rooms and great location. I highly recommend with confidence.

Property Manager Responded

November 26, 2024

Hi, it’s wonderful to hear that your experience at Fairfax Apartments was so positive during your three-year stay! The team strives to create a welcoming environment, and it’s great to know that maintenance requests were handled promptly and that you enjoyed the location and amenities. Your recommendation means a lot to us! Wishing you the best! The Fairfax Apartments Management Team

Best apartment in this area

June 20, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

After living in Fairfax for almost 10 years, and have been checking the other apartments now and then. I have to say the Fairfax is the best choice. Firstly, best location, especially when you have kids need pre-k or elementary education. The school at the corner is one of the best public school in Philly. It’s also closed to grocery stores, universities, cinema etc. Second, best service. The manger office is inside the building, and they are the most friendly and efficient staff you could ...

expect. Third, new renovations. After years of working, we got new laundry room, new small gym, new elevator. The process used to be annoying but the results were good. I didn’t mean it’s perfect but compared to the other ones, Fairfax is the best choice!

June 21, 2024

Hi, thank you for your excellent review! It warms our hearts to hear that you've had only wonderful experiences with our community and team here at Fairfax. We appreciate your loyalty over the past 10 years! Wishing you many more happy years here! The Fairfax Apartments Management Team

Helpful Management and Nice Apartment

May 24, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

When I toured the Fairfax, management was very helpful and I signed a lease within 24 hours. I first moved into the smallest unit available and 3 months later when I had saved some money and was ready for an upgrade they were able to accommodate and get me into a bigger unit (which I love)! I even got an emotional support animal and once again, they were very accommodating and helpful in answering all of my questions. I frequently stop by the front office to chit chat and catch up with the ...

assistant manager! Like any building in a city, it sometimes has issues like a slow elevator or the city forgot to pick up trash but the two managers do everything in their power to help the tenants. They definitely handle a lot of big (and impatient) personalities. Over the last 8 months the Fairfax has become my home and many neighbors have become my friends. If I wasn’t relocating for work I would definitely stay! If you’re a low maintenance tenant who likes to chit chat and can be patient with updates it’s a great place to live!

incompetent

April 16, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

I traveled from Miami for a confirmed appointment to tour some apartments. I received a confirmation email for the appointment and the morning of my tour I received a text once again confirming the tour. When I arrived on time, nobody was there. I waited until I found the assistant manager in the office who told me that nobody was available to show me anything and it doesn't matter that I had a confirmed appointment. She was extremely rude and unhelpful. I explained I traveled a long way and was ...

only in town for one day and she would not do anything to help and she refused to give me the name or card of a supervisor. I would stay far away from this building as this was a huge red flag as to how it is managed. I feel like they should compensate me for my travel but it is impossible to speak with anyone.

Hi, we truly apologize for the inconvenience of traveling from Miami to tour and finding no-one in the office. When scheduling a tour online, people are sometimes unaware that you must wait to receive a confirmation of your tour request in order to know that your tour is confirmed. It's not enough to just schedule an appointment. It is certainly frustrating, and we wish there is something we can do to restore your confidence in our community. We would be thrilled if you can give us another chance. We look forward to assisting you! The Fairfax Apartments Management Team

Run by incompetent management

November 1, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com

Pay big bucks for a mediocre maintenance and invisible management that play deaf. Frequent thefts and dirty hallways. Construction noise and dust is constant. At this rate they are going to run the building to the ground by their incompetence. Owners should pay attention to improve quality by putting right staff.

Terrible place

October 5, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com

I wish it was a zero star! Horrible place!!! Very unprofessional staff. They rarely respond to your emails. Even if you urge them again and again. The apartment here is very unsanitary. When we first moved into the apartment, no one cleaned it up, and we spent our first night in a dirty place full of stinks and clogged drains. Someone came to clean it the next day. Is that what a professional apartment is supposed to do? Your packages will be stolen because of their loose management. There ...

have been incidents of tenants' packages going missing. And finally don't be fooled by their pictures, the house is old and shabby. Rubbish is not cleaned up in time, and there are often rubbish and bad smell in the corridor. Please don't live here. You'll REGRET it.

Love Fairfax!

I absolutely adore this building and got a great value for the amount of space I have in my newly remolded apartment. The management make me feel like I have community here and are amazing at what they to do run this place. They are here to help you. Highly recommend this location.

OWNER/MANAGER TERRIBLE

January 31, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com

The building is a classic in terms of its architecture and the renovated units are nice, BUT ownership takes no pride in the condition of the lobby and other common areas . There is no staff on the weekends so the trash piles up, if the weather is inclement, the lobby floor stays wet, slippery and dirty until Monday. So the building is not only short staffed, BUT it seems only the contractors working in the units can get an elevator. It took 7 minutes for one to finally pick me up. Don't get ...

me wrong, I like living here , BUT ownership needs to step up to the plate when it comes to maintenance and staffing.
