The York Towson, towson-md

I would not AT ALL recommend living here. Staff tend to give you different answers on parking (which will be an additional 100/month even when not attached to your building) and not try to help you after the fact. The building itself is cheaply constructed, part of my wall has had a massive crack that has not been fixed & I guarantee I’ll be charged for it when I leave, dishwasher doesn’t run properly, seal on fridge is broken and maintenance did not replace it..etc. People allow their pets to use the bathroom in the hallways and not pick it up, and after WEEKS the York finally decides to clean it up by rubbing it into the carpet :) Trash rooms are regularly full of so many trash bags that you can’t even use the chutes, tenants are constantly running in the hallways which would be fine if you couldn’t hear every step someone takes (walls are extremely thin.) The common area is locked at night so you likely aren’t able to access the 24 hour gym after a certain point. Your water will likely not be hot your entire shower, it gets cold around the 10 minute mark usually. Overall, it seems that this complex just wants to extort college kids & their families for as much money as possible with the least benefit to them. It can be nice to be able to walk to places in uptown & Towson’s campus, but it is SO loud almost every night so just not worth it. Wildly expensive for a cheap living experience.

I’ve had a great experience living here! The amenities are nice and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The apartment is conveniently located close to grocery stores, the mall and the Towson University campus. Would recommend to other students looking to live off-campus but a close walking distance to school.

Fire alarm goes off in the middle of the night every month, the tv they given is horrible and stops working every week. Super thin walls can hear everything around you. Highly don’t recommend, sadly I have 3 more months here

Do not live here! I have lived in this place for the past year and it has been the worst living experience I have ever had. You pay way too much for what you get. The trash rooms are always filled with trash so you can’t even get into them to properly use the trash chute. There is dog poop in the hallways. The building always smells like weed and your room will smell as well. Loud music and screaming all night long no matter the day. They say the courtyard is closed after a certain time but that’s a lie, people are out there all night every night. Your room is the size of a shoebox. I’ve complained about all of these things the past year and they don’t do anything. Oh, and when you move out they will charge you for things that were there before you moved in. This place is a complete scam. Live somewhere else!

I’ve been living at the York for the past year and have recently moved to a studio apartment on the property. While the front desk, security personnel, and maintenance team are great, my issue is with the noise. There are constant parties, whether it be on weekends or weekdays, in the courtyard that extend past quiet hours. When I moved into my studio, I expected a quieter environment as it would just be me in the apartment, however, I can never have peace due to the constant noise outside. When I call the front desk, they seem to take a long time to get the party shut down.
