    Pros: - room structure nice - good study desks - nice pool and gym - easy bus stop access Cons: - bad maintenance - bugs everywhere in apartment and nothing has been renovated - always only one person in leasing office to help out everyone - shower temp does that work well - Leasing office is decent: I asked for a bus pass for the past week and they told me everyday that I would get it the next day. - buses always full due to us being on of the last stops

    Move-in/check-in was easy and smooth. I think that the idea with the three stations that were drive-up and correlated to building number and location worked well and was executed properly.

    I’ve been living at The Bryn for almost a year now and overall, it’s been a great experience. The apartments are spacious, modern, and come fully furnished, which made moving in really convenient. I especially appreciate the in-unit washer and dryer and the decent kitchen appliances. The internet is pretty reliable, which is important for both school and streaming. The community amenities are another strong point—there’s a pool and hot tub, a nice gym, a basketball court, and even a game room. ...
    The shuttle to campus is a big plus, and there are shopping centers and restaurants nearby, making the location very convenient.

    Terrible experience. The apartment was dirty on arrival, full of pests, and nothing like the photos. Management was rude and unresponsive. Avoid at all costs.
