TWO Old Town Park

In summary, the apartment building and units are pretty great. There are a number of inconveniences and annoyances that I'll mention below, but it's overall a great building with friendly guests and phenomenal views.

What did you like most?

- Views / balcony - Large Laundry appliances - Nice apartments overall - Friendly tenants - Pool, basketball court, weight room/workout equipment, other common areas - Amazon locker and returns - Bike storage - Pet friendly (dog run) - Location - new Aldi at OTP1, nightlife and restaurants nearby in Old Town and Gold Coast; proximity to Lake Michigan

What did you like least?

- Mounting a TV yourself is like finding a needle in a haystack - the building designed it to be very simple, but they give you zero instruction until you basically screw up and have to get maintenance up to show you. Otherwise, you can pay maintenance $200 for 10 minutes of work. - The studios/convertibles are slightly smaller than they look online. - All appliances except laundry are miniature ... I don't use the oven much, but it's definitely too small for big meals; the microwave and dishwasher are small, but very much sufficient for a single person. The most annoying is the fridge and freezer, which don't have sufficient space for many standard items. The freezer has drawers rather than shelving and isn't big enough to fit most frozen pizzas. - Setting up fiber internet was somewhat of a pain - Elevators work inconsistently; rarely work when concierge tries to send a guest up - Concierge is average; some are great, some are kind of rude - Due to COVID, basically everything has to be 'reserved' - they've become more relaxed on this, but it's still annoying to have to go down to the front desk to get a key fob if you just want to check out the pool deck, grill outside, or hangout in the lounge
