    It's a shame when you hold people accountable for their actions that they can bash a very reputable business.

    Terrible management. They discriminate against foreigners during the application process. You'd be much happier elsewhere.

Conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Melrose, a pleasant residential suburb with good local schools, the area also provides easy access to the Fells hiking trails and public transportation to downtown Boston with the nearby commuter rail (which is far enough to not cause noise issues). Although they do not offer as many shared amenities as other locations, the apartments are well-fitted with modern accommodations, including washer/dryer and premium kitchen appliances. Rent prices are comparably affordable for the area. With regard to service, they have been exemplary in my experience. Specifically, they were gracious and understanding of my situation when a family member was ill and I had to be away for an extended period of time. Without their support, I would not had peace of mind about my living situation while I was away. Thank you very much Corey 10!

    These apartments are brand new, bright and gorgeous - high ceilings, spacious layouts, modern…read morekitchens and baths, in-unit washer & dryer, thermostats in each bedroom and the main living area (never seen this before - so great!), most if not all master bedrooms have big walk-in closets and a master bath, private parking, shockingly good insulation (the train station is like a 2-minute walk, but even without furniture to muffle the sound, I didn't hear it), and, the kicker, it's dog-friendly! Walked around a bit after checking out the inside and was even-more pleased - there is an awesome little strip of shops, restaurants, cafes and bars right around the corner that is lined with hanging and potted planters (adorable). I chatted with a few people while walking and everyone I came into contact with was really sweet and friendly - love that community feel. There's a dunks like 50 feet from the building (super convenient), and there are parks and green spaces all over the place. Seriously great spot!

    No hot water for 13 days so far. The maintenance was responsive to the requests to fix the issue…read more However, it doesn't seem to be an easy fix. Several staff members at the office proposed reasonable solutions and listened to our concerns. We asked to leave our belongings in another unit because we have a newborn at home. It's a lot of work to go to another unit to use hot water while having to pack everything for the newborn. However, the request to leave our belongings was rejected by the property manager. We feel that the manager doesn't care about the safety and health of a newborn. Update 10/5/2023: The leasing office lied about the availability of a unit we would be moving into in a week. We asked to use the hot water in that unit while our current unit was being repaired. The office told us that the maintenance team was still getting our new unit ready. However, the maintenance team told us the new unit was ready. We explained multiple times that we were not planning to move in early but simply to use the hot water and store some essentials there. Because we already had a babysitter and movers to help with the scheduled move-in date for most items and furniture. In the property manager's twisted mind, he believed that we were lying about the hot water issue to move into the new unit earlier than scheduled. Any parents with a newborn should understand that taking care of a newborn requires a lot of stuff and it's impossible to take care of them in an empty apartment. All we needed was to set up a basic "nursery" in another unit without running back and forth between two apartments constantly. We also communicated that we needed hot water to clean bottles and breast-pumping parts. For that, we clean them at least 8 times every day. The manager didn't understand our need for that and believed that offering us to take a shower in another unit was an adequate solution. Update 10/7/2023: The manager wrote a lengthy email explaining why he couldn't allow us to use the unit we will be moving into, he stated that "I am in the position that I am in is to protect the physical asset that my company owns." He also questioned why we didn't pick an earlier move-in date for the new unit. This is outrageous. How were we able to foresee the hot water issue approaching the move-in date of the new unit??? This summarizes all. He doesn't care about residents. Update 1/25/2024: If the office chooses to keep lying in the response on Google reviews, I will post the leasing manager's email word for word where he insulted us and denied an earlier move-in date.

Small problems are always immediately addressed, fixed or solved. The maintenance team is by far the most exceptional group of hard working, friendly, happy and professional men. The average wait time for response is literally just hours. Your request for service is immediately acknowledged. Then the assigned team member, Mike, Jesus, Anthony...They make the friendly call, schedule for when it's convenient for you, then it's fixed. Simple as that. But not simply done. They always ask how we're doing. How are family is doing. Sincerely so. They're friends. Neighbors. There to help. Ask what else they can do for us. (We're two older women, mother & daughter and are always made to feel listened to and cared for, in a lovely maternal way) Then there's the office staff. Caitlin, Regan, Dave.... Regan and Dave took us through our 2021 renewal recently. They're just so fabulous- always honest, clear and professional . We are looking forward to 2021 Summer at the pool and enjoying the beautiful brand new clubhouse, technology center with super comfortable spaces and a NEW professional level gym!!! I can't wait to get onto the recumbent bicycle that is exactly what I had hoped would be added in the new equipment set up. The trees flowered so nicely this year. My one grump with the extensive landscaping is that they don't put iron nails under the hundreds of hydrangeas to bring out more colors! But there are always flowers. The waking paths are very well maintained. I use a rolling walker so the annual upkeep of the asphalt walk is very much appreciated. A really nice surprise this year was the upgraded gas grill areas. Now there are two grills, set into large cooking spaces. Thanks! Maybe next year we will see an overhaul of the dog park? There are dogs everywhere now. Owners are responsible with cleaning up for the most part and pups are leashed. The park is too small even for our little guys and it's on a slope making it difficult for dogs and owners alike. It's kept super clean by use of washable astro-turf. All in all its just a happy place to call home.

    We moved in from out of state as we needed to live out of boxes on a temporary lease while we were…read morehouse hunting. We got here less than a week before before the COVID shut downs so we didn't get to use the amenities like the pool, gym, BBQ area but it all looked nice. While the apartments are nice, I would say the construction of the cabinetry or the appliances aren't quite the best quality, it all looks nice and it all works which is the most important thing. I've lived in apartment complexes before and some of them bank on hitting you for fees especially at move-in and move-out. This is not the case. The staff from the maintenance people to the management are attentive and actually care. A case in point: we had a cat which is $50/month pet me. He was an old man and got sick. We had to put him to rest. We had already paid our rent and they had no problem crediting back the monthly pet fee and adjusting the rate. There is a package locker here but most of the time the Amazon workers don't care and dump the packages in the lobby of the building you're in. No amount of correspondence from the management here could ever possibly rectify that because the people delivering the packages don't get paid enough to care. As a result, some packages end up in weird places. On a couple occasions someone from the staff had actually brought over some things outside our door, which was much appreciated especially during the height of the COVID outbreak when we were limiting our entrance and exit through common areas. The one time I had to file a noise complaint it was handled immediately. This is the place where you're walking around and the maintenance staff will ask you how you're doing. Stop and ask to see if everything is all good and make sure nothing doesn't need to be fixed. We moved out because we found our perfect home. We didn't hold our breath thinking they could re-lease the unit but we were able to get off the last month and one week of rent owed because someone leased the unit we vacated. We had no issue getting the deposit back - minus the replacement cost for the blinds our toddler broke. We really liked the short distance to the ALDI and Stop And Shop and other places. Would've loved to have been able to frequent the bar up the road, it was just opening up its outdoor space by the time we moved. A+ no regrets. Thanks Todd, Craig, and everyone else.

    Long and thorough review alert!…read more About Me (what type of renter am I): With my job I relocate every 3 months and for the past ~2 years I've had no desire to stay at the same place for longer than 3 months. The key things I look for in an apt is safe, clean, affordable (can you even say this in MA lol), free parking, and my own bathroom (typically live with roommates). Wellington Place: I moved here Mar 2020, to take over someone's lease that lost their job. It fit the bill of what I was looking for, in addition to being in walking distance (within 10 minute walk) of my top grocery stores: Aldi, Trader Joes, and Stop & Shop. Its approx 15 min walk to Assembly Row, 5 min drive to Target and Costco, and 5 min drive to Wegmans. Its by far the most convenient location I've lived in within the US. Its a quick drive to Boston about 15-20 min drive and about 20 min drive to Burlington where I frequent for work. Lastly, its about 5 min walk to Orange line Wellington T stop. If you have a car, parking is plentiful here, no long treks to the car :). Aside from location I loved that they have trash and recycling drop off on each floor; hence, you don't have to worry about stepping foot outside to throw away trash. I'm an avid recycler so I loved that they had this option available (my previous apt in Burlington didn't). The rooms are huge. I have my office inside of my bedroom and a queen size bed and I still have more space. I also have a good size walk-in closet. However, my roommate's room and walk-in closet is much bigger than mine (I'm sure she can fit in addition to a desk a small couch in her room). When it comes to cost, they are very affordable for the location. I try to keep a hard cap on living expenses (no more than 1,500 a mo. including utilities). Lastly the staff from the maintenance team to the leasing office are customer-centric. I had initially told them that I would be moving after 3 months once I moved in but I fell in love with the place. They provided concessions to ensure that I was a happy a customer. Maintenance staff are very responsive and do a good job of following up after they fix items to ensure it works. I honestly wish that these were condos instead of apt because I would definitely look into buying here. If you're looking for an A1 experience I highly suggest Wellington Place :).

Under 10 minute walk into Davis Square, and the 77 bus stops right across the street that will bring you right into Porter or Harvard Square. The units are also very quiet despite being right on Mass Ave. The staff working in the building were all great and were really on top of maintenance. This review was prompted, however, by the experience we had upon moving out of the apartment with Acorn Holdings, the owner of the building. We left our unit on August 31st after living in the unit for two years in great condition - cleaning counters, sweeping, vacuuming, and spackling any holes in the wall. The lease very specifically mentioned "broom clean" as the standard, which we honestly went beyond. However, when we heard from the property manager the next week they informed us they would be withholding $2,100 of the $3,000 in our security deposit. A couple things about that: - First, $2,000 of that security deposit was collected from us explicitly related to the two dogs in the apartment - $500 was charged upon move in and an additional $1,500 collected when we added a second. This is a dog friendly building, and there are many canine tenants. However, in the course of this experience we found out that these deposits are illegal in Massachusetts. - The majority of what they were charging was for cleaning the apartment (none of it dog-related) which is also not an appropriate use of deposit funds in Massachusetts: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/find-out-what-landlords-can-use-security-deposits-for - Beyond whether or not they are allowed to use the money for the things they were claiming, the amounts were ludicrous. For example, they claimed they needed to withhold $700 to clean the carpet in a single bedroom which had zero stains or rips, simply was a carpet in a 100 sq ft room that had been lived in for two years. So, they were withholding exorbitant funds they shouldn't have collected in the first place. We raised our concerns about this and stopped hearing from them. We sent several emails and attempted to speak on the phone with our property manager. We were ignored. 30 days passed and we hadn't even received the small amount they were saying they planned to return. Again, breaking housing regulations https://www.mass.gov/info-details/learn-about-returning-or-getting-back-a-security-deposit#failure-to-return-. It was only when we sent documentation showing that we were going to file a housing court claim (which could result in a $7,000 fine) did they reply to our concerns and return the deposit. This behavior would be inappropriate - and illegal - under any circumstances. But in the midst of a pandemic when folks are juggling economic stress with so much else this is nothing short of predatory. Overcharging, ignoring follow up, and hoping that the complexity of housing regulations would prevent pushback.

Management staff is very responsive and friendly (shout-out to Shaina!). Would highly recommend!
