The Drake Apartamentos

The Drake is really nice! Moved here recently from out of state, and the leasing and move-in process was straightforward and smooth. The units are beautiful--lots of light, new appliances, and a versatile open layout. Management and maintenance staff are very friendly, helpful, and responsive. Other big pluses include covered parking, central air, and no extra charges for pets. It's a good location and a quick walk to the commuter rail as well as a grocery store, gym, and library. Glad I found... this place! Lee mas

The property is always clean and looking good. The company that owns the Drake addresses any problems or concerns immediately. There is the added plus of the underneath garage which eliminates getting snow off your car or going out in the rain.

nice place to live. close market, bank... and the apartament is new and everything works very well, nice space.

Really nice building with modern finishes and features. Great area close shops, restaurants, and the commuter rail making it easy to get into Boston. 5-stars for the property manager, Joe - he's the best!

Current Resident. Can't wait for my lease to end. Air conditioning went out 3 times this summer, and because they're heat pumps, it blew hot air instead of cold. Came home one day and it was over 100 degrees. I've been told 3 times they're going to replace the unit and it still hasn't happened.

The building is well insulated thermally, but there is NO sound insulation. I can hear my neighbors dog downstairs and every step my neighbors take upstairs, as well as their phones ringing and most... of their conversations. Also, because the flooring is adhered directly to the concrete the laminate bubbles.

It looks amazing, but it's REALLY poorly built. Lee mas
