The View at Montgomery

managed and maintained terribly. Less than half of the laundry machines work, we’ve had 1-2 functioning elevators for the last month depending on the day. There has been zero communication from the property about any of these issues, despite reaching out several times. avoid living here at all costs, the “amenities” aren’t worth the agony of living here.

I lived here for the school year 2021-2022 and it was the worst housing experience I had during my 4 years at Temple. When I moved in the living room couch was scratched up and damaged and I was informed by an email within the first month of living there that it would be replaced. It was never replaced during the year I lived there.

For several months I was charged a fee for not having renter's insurance which was outlined in their lease but I did have insurance which they didn't accept... because they didn't believe my proof of insurance. I had to contact them month after month before finally having my insurance agency call on my behalf to explain that my current proof of insurance did in fact prove that I had insurance.

After my roommate and I moved out they tried charging us for damages to furniture which we did not cause. We submitted a formal dispute as per their policies and we were told our dispute would be reviewed within the next month. They didn’t get back to us again for 6 months when we received a notification of an outstanding balance with no mention of our dispute. My roommate and I immediately spoke to the staff about this and they made us believe the issue had been dropped. We received a notice in October 2024 that we had an outstanding balance after 18 months of no contact.

No self-respecting student should ever choose to suffer the indignity of living at the View at Montgomery. It is wildly overpriced for the small rooms they have available and they take advantage of the fact that many of their tenants are inexperienced renters so that they can claim damages. Plenty of options near Temple’s campus are better and more affordable than this sorry excuse for housing. Read More

this place likes to pretend like it's some thriving social community for temple students, when in reality the new management could not care less about the people living here. For the past three months, a resident has had their car parked in the lot and the alarm goes off at random hours of the night, waking up dozens of residents and irritating anyone who lives on the side adjacent to the lot. Management has done nothing to solve this despite the tenants of this building being college students,... some of which have early classes that require a full night's sleep.

However, if you like having awful wifi that cannot load even a low quality video on youtube, or getting stuck in rickety elevators, or maybe even a security guard that lets just about anyone in here, then this is the perfect place for you. Just don't expect to find anyone competent in the "office" that can actually help you if you have a serious problem, they're only there to sell you a lease. Read More

Moving into this Apartment to continue on with my college at Temple University was such a great decision. With many amenities included in the rent and furnishings included makes this a perfect apartment while going to College. Access to everything on campus, tanning, a gym, a top floor lounge, and so much more, I couldn't ask for better especially with a monthly flat rate. Highly recommended!
