Beckon Apartamentos

We love our unit and the building amenities. The events that Jordan and Mica host are the best! And the Beckon staff are lovely. Our biggest issue is that the floors/ceilings and the walls to outside the building are not well insulated. There is a constant mechanical noise that comes off the top of the Durham ID building when it's warm that we can hear in our living room. It's so loud on our balcony that we can't use it during all the months we'd want to. We are also near the dog park and hear... dogs bark at all hours - windows closed, doors closed, even with music or a sound machine on, we can hear barking. This wasn't an issue our first year here, but the dog park has become increasingly popular for big dogs with owners that let their dogs bark as much as they want. We have neighbors who can no longer study in their apartments, and it's become difficult to work from home with all the noise. So the building itself is great, but if you're noise sensitive I would pick a unit in the back. Lee mas

Beckon is an all encompassing apartment with everything you could possibly need. Not only is the staff always available and helpful, but I feel truly like I'm living in a luxury or boutique hotel. Each day I can step out of my unit and experience one of the amenities. The gym and the common areas are better than any other building we viewed in the triangle. I look forwarding to living here for a while!

Great staff and living amenities. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and staff are very responsive and supportive for every need.

This is a beautifully designed condo in Durham. Steps to the farmers market, the many entertainments and trails. Excellent community events too. I love living here. The main issue is the insulation is minimal so noise travels easily. The neighbor upstairs stomping, the garbage pickup at 3am… all wake you up in the middle of the night.

Beckon is a nice option to live in downtown durham with it being situated a block away from the Main Street. It allows for you to escape the noise from the Main Street but still be able to walk to everything. The vents beckon puts on are always interesting and fun. However the mailroom is typically a huge disaster and the “free” snacks and wine is typically inaccessible/empty. Overall, if you’re looking to spend a ridiculous amount to live in downtown Durham, beckon is a good choice. Durham is... just way more expensive than it needs to be. Lee mas
