The Durant, berkeley-ca

I lived here in 2025. Overall, this is a great place to live, especially for students. The management staff is incredibly friendly and always helpful. Maintenance is exceptionally fast and responsive when issues arise. The location is perfect—super close to campus. The building features a beautiful terrace. However, the bathroom ceiling light and exhaust fan cannot be turned off. If you are renting a Studio, this is a significant drawback since the bathroom is only separated by a frosted glass door, so the constant light and fan noise may disrupt your sleep. However, if you are looking at a 2B1B or other layouts with solid bedroom doors, this won't be an issue at all.

I toured at The Durant and the staff (Naz, Corey, & Kennedy) were wonderful. This building is super close to campus and perfect for people looking to live in studios or 2 bedrooms. They also have a pretty nice roof with great views and a perfect place to host friends.

My child enjoyed their tenancy here. The building is conveniently located right around the corner from campus. We had a great experience with management. Angel from management has been a blessing to deal with.

Toured The Durant and really enjoyed it! The team was extremely helpful and transparent throughout the tour. Loved the modern look and how clean everything is and while I was specifically looking for a one bedroom, they have spacious two bedrooms and cute studios.

Great location, overall a quiet area and just a 4 minute walk from campus. Perfect for those who want/like the clean modern look and lots natural lighting!
