Studios @ 270

Do not live here. Pretty sure the property manager is writing fake reviews because there are SO MANY break ins in the area. You cannot invite guests here because the walls are paper thin and they’re not allowed to park in the parking lot(which has the tiniest spaces ever). So, they have to park in the street. Again there are so many break ins in this area. I wouldn’t dare invite a guest over to this apartment. The laundry machines is often times filthy. Smoke and mirrors alert! Do not believe… any positive review. You will regret it. Walls paper thin, water shut offs and broken parking lot gate with no information to the tenants. If you’re not a broke college student do not live here. You can do better Read More

In the two years that I live here, my Nissan Maxima was never broken into whether I parked in the private parking in the back or on the street out front. I've left my car parked for long stretches of time when I traveled home for the holidays and my car was always fine when I came back to it. I lived in one of the spacious Studios @ 270 for two years. It was definitely cost effective for me since I'm a student trying to stretch my dollar. The walls are a bit thin and I did have a 20 to 25 minute… drive to school in the mornings--it's only 15 minutes outside of rush hour traffic. However, I didn't mind the few extra minutes drive to the UConn Storrs campus because I was saving money by living here. The rent includes heat, private parking in the back of the building, and wifi--which I didn't have a problem with. These are all amenities that cost extra in other places that I considered. There's onsite laundry, a small gym, and a meditation room, all of which were clean every time I used them. The building manager was always respectful and responded to my maintenance requests the same day.She was very accommodating even before COVID. From the day the building opened, Laura worked to keep the building safe while adding conveniences that made this a great bargain for me. Since my unit faced the street, I could look forward to a beautiful sunset. And It was fun to decorate! If not for my needing a bigger place because my parter is moving in, I most likely would have stayed a little longer. Read More

Car break ins often on this street. Do not live here. All smoke and mirrors. Paper thin walls and floors.

I ignored the other the other negative reviews before I moved in, as they were mainly complaining about the Wi-Fi, which I did not view as an issue. However, these apartments were cheaply renovated. They are the noisiest apartments I have ever lived in. Every hallway noise can clearly be heard within your unit, and noise from other apartments can easily be heard as well. It is impossible to sleep soundly here. That is the primary problem, but there are numerous other issues as well. Go… elsewhere! Read More
