The Chancery Apartments

The truth is that the area is fantastic but the building leaves much to be desired.
The company that manages the building is one of the worst.
The community manager is very aggressive with the tenants, he walks through the hallways as if he were the owner of the place.
There is infection from cockroaches and mice, little communication and no help to the tenant.
They say there is a roof terrace for the tenants but it has been closed for years and they do not allow the use of it.
The big problem... is the infection of cockroaches and mice, I see no solutions for this issue.
The only thing the company is interested in is that the tenants move in all the time because that way they get commissions every time they rent an apartment.
Unfortunately, it's the only cheap thing in the area.
There's nothing good about this, pretty and cheap.
Do not move to this place!! Read More

If you’re interested, don’t bother!
The only thing about this place was that they had a modern lobby, but everything else was very old. It had an okay charm to it, but no dishwasher or dryer. in any units,
The management is also, unorganized made me wait at least 30 mins even with an appointment. & the application process is a little much. Don’t do it. It’s not worth it. Keep searching!

There are some positives to living in this building: the bus stops are nearby to take you downtown, grocery store, CVS and PNC are a less than 5 minute walk up the street, there are some restaurants in the area. I had a spacious 1 bedroom unit. However, there have been some draw backs that make me ready to move as soon as possible. There are tenants that smoke on my floor even though it is a non-smoking building. Our unit has been dealing with a cockroach problem along with other units, even... though we deep clean the apartment unit regularly(every 1-2 weeks). Staff can be hit or miss in terms of service depending on the time of day and the day of the week. Apartment uses window ac units that don't adequately cover the apartment unit. Our bedroom was sweltering in summer but the rest of the apartment was cool. Radiators function but it is easy to overheat in the apartment. Overall, this apartment wasn't worth the price. Read More

While this older building has some charm, it seriously lacks in modern amenities, among which are the building's air quality. The windows are quite old, and smoggy, pollen-filled air easily blows in through the gaps around the windows. Plus, despite what is listed on rental sites, this is NOT A SMOKE-FREE BUILDING. Cigarette smoking and other types of unsavory smoking are evident throughout the building.
I moved out of there a few months ago, due to having chronic respiratory problems that... my physician directly attributed to the poor air quality in the building. Upon moving to my new apt, which is modern with filtered air, and has a strict no-smoking policy, my respiratory problems have disappeared. Read More

I have been here for 3 months renting a huge studio unit. The hard wood floors thru out are beautiful, I love the many windows especially off the kitchen and in the bathroom. The building is cleaned daily is bright and airey with thick walls so you don't hear the neighbors. The building is also smokefree, neighbors are friendly and the staff is professional and extremely helpful and friendly.

The location is ideal with Giant, CVS, Starbucks and several trendy restaurants all in a short... walking distance. Transportation is convenient with several bus lines downstairs.

The Chancery is a great place to call home I see myself living here for quite a while. Read More
