It is painful to live in this apartment. It is impressive that the least of the problems are from college students themselves, not the amount of loud parties or wandering drunk kids. From towing cars that are legally parked (and just barely admitting fault), to consistently raising rent when amenities don’t work (washers, dryers, and dishwashers are faulty, etc.) The security guards seem more like a decoration and management can’t seem to be found in the office at anytime! Along with that, don’t... even consider trying to order anything to the building, food and packages are stolen constantly and you’ll essentially be laughed at if you ask them to do something about it.

New building, amazing views, spacious apartments.

After 2 years of living experience in this complex I am writing this review to prevent you (future resident) from making the same mistake as me!
The management office and its employees are very RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL and IRRESPONSIBLE. Their contract is so vague and unclear that you never find out that you are ripped off until a problem comes up. Lately, about 2 months ago we realized that our unit is affected by bed bugs infestations!! My roommates and I notified the management office ASAP,... however, due to their lack of responsibility, the bed bugs have spread out to the whole unit (including bedrooms, living room, etc.). They have 2 pages of addendum in their lease contract just about a very tiny bug (BED BUGS), so you might be careful who you dealing with. Yesterday I went to their office to notify them AGAIN about our problem and they told me to leave their offie with a lots of disrespect!! You may need to give up on your rights as resident while leaving here. I am attaching other reviews to prove their lack of responsibility and their disrespectful behavior towards all of their residents. Read More

The area is fairly nice but the apartment is small and the kitchen is meant for people who don't plan on cooking a lot. It's basically like a big dorm room but you really shouldn't stick around for too long because rent becomes crazy expensive and management charges some crazy fees if anything on the lease changes.

The Peninsula is a great apartment and particularly perfect if you attend UMass Boston as it is just a short walk away and just a 15 minute walk to the JFK train stop. The apartments themselves are beautiful and spacious. The management is friendly and helpful and there is security at night which makes me feel extra safe. I have lived here for three years and would recommend living here to anyone. Good luck on your apartment hunting journey!
