Mt. Vernon's Best Kept Secret!
September 15, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
I have no idea how this place has only 3.6 stars!
I lived at the Stafford for 2 years and it was, WITHOUT QUESTION, the best apartment I've ever lived in, all things considered. It is an old building, of course. But, add up the price, size, awesome neighborhood, tenants and living conditions and it's the best kept secret.
Living Conditions - The tenants are primarily Peabody and JHU Students, Doctors in residency at JHMI and students from MICA and UB. Take that to mean all that it implies - great ...
neighbors! How about the occasional french horn, flute or opera singer filling the halls instead of music blasting or screaming/fighting neighbors? You never have to worry about weed smoke in the halls or traveling into your apartment. Most importantly, in 2 years I never saw or heard of a mouse or roach in the apartments. I think I killed a fly or 2 in the whole 2 years.
Neighborhood - Mt. Vernon is the best kept secret in Baltimore. Check the crime blotter. People walk dogs all hours of the day and night (says a lot), there are free movies and concerts in the parks, you're right at the monument lighting ceremony and you could very well be inconvenienced by your neighborhood being the scene for another movie or TV show (Google Mt. Vernon Baltimore Movies / TV), pretty cool problem to have.
Samantha has moved on to pursue her real dream but, she started things off for my experience with a great attitude, clear dedication and knowledge. Cassandra, you never know when people are paying attention. You, not only have a great attitude but, you have been noticed working hard even when you weren't necessarily "on the clock". You definitely fit right in. I wish you and your man the best. Great people! Since Christine started as the Property Manager, everything has changed from the little things like mints in the vestibule and new pictures to the major things like quick repairs to everything and major cosmetic updates. All the best to Mr. John - as dedicated and hard working a man as you will ever see servicing a property. I hope the residents are a little more respectful, not making his work extra hard. Linda, I appreciate you very much! The whole experience was the best! I had to move on but, I do miss it.
