Tenant Reviews for 930 WEST WINONA AVENUE

We have had a great experience living at 930 W. Winona St. Have lived here for a year and a half - the price is great, the location and neighborhood are convenient, friendly, and diverse. The property manager is courteous, quick to fix any problems, and the apartments are all re-habbed in a clean, modern style. The tenants are quiet, a mix of small families, single professionals, and overall a very pleasant place to live.

I've lived in this city for over 12 years and have had mostly nightmare experiences with both the apartments I've lived in and, more specifically, the landlords who own them. That is until I moved into this building. It's a pretty non-descript mid-rise elevator building built in the 60's without much landscaping and no outdoor common area to speak of. However, the first time I stepped foot in this place I couldn't believe my eyes--absolutely immaculate! I didn't even apply for the unit I live in now for more than a week after viewing it because I was sure I could find a walk-up (which I really prefer) for around the same price. Yeah, uh, no. I finally decided on renting here because the manager Steve, who lives in the building, takes such good care of the place. Though he is a bit of a perfectionist and a stickler for the rules, it has paid off in aces. He knows everyone by name and makes a concerted effort to create a community environment. The place is clean, quiet, and SAFE!! A 1/4 block to the lake, 4 blocks to Bryn Mawr dist. and 1.2 miles to Andersonville. Though the street parking situation is beyond frustrating at times, there is parking in the building for a fee. It's not for those of you who require a lot of ammenities like roof deck, fitness center, doorman, etc. But if you like safety, responsive management and close proximity to the lake for reasonable rent, check it out. The correct phone number to the manager is: 773-504-0930.
