Got called 20min before my scheduled tour and told there were no apartments available when I wanted to move, and that the monthly rent was $250 more per month than I was quoted.

Sketchy as hell

this building kept coming in my search & it seemed like a perfect fit as there was MANY listings of available units. I contacted them for a week before someone finally let me know there aren’t available units & if something popped up it’s gonna be much more expensive & offered to show me other more expensive buildings in the area. so just be careful

If you like historic charming buildings, this is your place. Amazing price for the neighborhood and really good staff and maintenance. I've never seen a cockroach in 3 years of living here.

Just moved out because of a variety of reasons, but what takes the cake are the cockroaches that have basically overrun the building and can be seen in the hallways and stairwells and the fact that the elevators are constantly breaking down. As someone with a knee problem who lived on a high floor, taking the stairs just wasn't an option for me. Management refuses to properly address either of these issues. A shame, cuz it was a beautiful building.

The Melrose apartments are in a great location. Located in the heart of Lakeview near the lake shore, a short distance from joggers paradise. Public transport is conveniently located nearby. The apartments building managers are great, and always there if you need something fixed. I highly recommend this building and everything it as to offer.
