Great Value and Location
Rented here for nearly two years. It’s a lovely location near the stockade and downtown area. The leasing agent and maintenance were always responsive and kind.

I lived in 5 or 6 different apartments in Barney Square and loved all of them! The people that work at Barneys from the office management to the maintenance are absolutely fantastic people, and will help you out right away with any issue that may arise. That said- really no issues ever came up, and Barneys is a nice peaceful place to live at right in the heart of downtown Schenectady. Living there nearly 8 years, if I could go back in time I would do it all over again in a hearbeat.
Great... pricing, great apartments, great staff- what more could you ask for?
Cheers!

I lived at Barney Square for 7 years. In all those years that I lived there, I received great service when needed & the office staff was very accommodating to me. Barney Square is in the utmost perfect location. Schenectady has grown to be an excellent downtown area over the years with great eateries & some shopping (especially on Jay Street). Everything is walking distance from the apartment, which I loved. I am leaving Barney Square on a good note. Life has just taken me elsewhere at the... present time. So, if you are looking for a quiet & cozy place to live ... Barney Square would be the perfect place for you!

The first 8 months I lived here I had to deal with very noisy neighbors that I'm quite certain were on welfare. Since they've been kicked out I've really liked the place. The owners upgrade most of the apartments before you move in.
