Excellent apartments close to PENN

April 17, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com

Stayed here for 3 years. Couldnt have asked for a better experience. Great building and location for grad students. Super close walking, great food options, and easy transportation all nearby. The management made my experience fantastic. Central AC full sized washer dryer it was great! Highly recommend.

unmatched value and convenience

October 30, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

Moving to this building was an easy a decision when I moved into Philadelphia for a new job. Everything I need is in walking distance with Drexel and UPenn just a few blocks away. The value is absolutely there considering the great room layouts and most importantly, the building is kept clean and is filled with respectful tenants so it's almost as if you have the building to yourself. I would recommend this to everyone and plan on resigning if I stay in PA.

Great Apartment for Penn Students

October 18, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

I have been living here for a few months and love it! The building is very nice with all updated appliances and renovations. There is a ton of natural light in the apartment and the style and layout is great. I walk to Penn's campus everyday which is very convenient but having the subway a less than 10 min. walk away, a bus/trolley stop right across the street, and Penn rides that picks up and drops off students in this area (UPENN students only) there are so many ways to get around! The ...

neighborhood is relatively quiet and I feel pretty safe especially with the police station right behind our building. Management is very responsive with any issues and great at communicating.

New apartment in prime location!

October 17, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

I have been living here for a few months and it has been great. Everything inside is brand new as it has been recently renovated. Washer and dryer in unit is a huge plus. The closets in the bedrooms and in the common spaces are massive so you get extra storage. My room here in the city is slightly smaller than I’m used to in the suburbs but i still fit a queen bed, desk, and dresser comfortably! The study room is huge and not busy so you can get work done in silence if you need. Penn dental is a ...

straight 12 minute walk from the apartment which is the start of locust walk that takes you through Penn’s campus. It is a 7 minute walk to the septa station. It is also a 10-15 minute walk to Drexel’s recreation center which is near the law school and library. There is also a bus stop right across the street from the apartment. If you choose to have a car, there is free parking around the apartment and I’ve never had an issue finding a spot. The rooftop is so nice and has an amazing view and is much bigger than it seems! Management responds really quickly to any requests you have too!

40 Spring

October 15, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

It’s a nice apartment and management is responsive

Love living here!

June 13, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

The University City apartments at 40Spring are wonderful! The apartments are amazing and at a great price! Location-wise, they are close to the UPenn campus and hospitals (CHOP, Penn, Pres). I bike to and from CHOP every day for work in ~15 mins! The building itself is clean (and kept clean!) and modern and the single bedroom apartments are spacious with more than enough storage room (closets, cabinets, etc.). The apartments are brand spanking new and so everything is shiny, functioning, and ...

up-to-date (which is a HUGE plus when compared to other city apartments I've seen)! I also love the cozy feel that the apartments have--the color scheme, granite countertops, and wood floors are fabulous (oh, and did I mention in-unit washer and dryer?). Another big plus is safety. I was a little worried when I first moved here (from out of state, knowing nothing about Philly), but could not be happier with my choice. The landlord is wonderful when it comes to keeping the building secured and making sure that any breaches in security are taken care of immediately and the technology to prevent them from re-occurring is put into place (there are cameras everywhere)! Speaking of the landlord, Ilya is so wonderful! I have never met someone so willing to make you feel at home and go out of his way to help you out when you are in need! It has been a pleasure being a tenet here! I also really appreciate the free wifi and the fact that there is a gym, huge study room, and roof-top deck as well! The building has an elevator and a mailbox/package area as well. Oh, and there is an area to park your bike that is locked! Overall, I can't recommend this building more :)

Great U-City Apartments

May 26, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com

Best option for comfortable living in the University City area. The building was recently updated and greatly cared for. Not only do the residents have access to the rooftop, gym, and study area, but the apartments themselves are terrific. The real shining star, though, is the building's Management. I have never experienced more professional, responsive and friendly management in my 5+ years living in Philly. If only all managers/landlords were like Ilya. Definitely recommend this place!!
