777 South State

Jun 26th, 2023

Echoing what other posters have written recently. Run dont walk. Several issues including multiple floods within a month, AC that doesnt cool the apartment and it isnt even summer yet, heat was out multiple times during the winter. Way too expensive to deal with this. Way better apartments in the area. The washing machines regularly smell like mold and I consistently lose money because they are always broken. The management service never refunds. Additionally my Mail was stolen from the mailroom and was signed for by a worker so I could not get refunded.

I lived here for 1-year. Pros: the maintenance & Cleaning staff are friendly and they do what they can to help. The location is decent if youre a student attending college in the area or younger adult not really ideal for anyone 26/27+ (my personal opinion). The views are decent and the new management team is friendly and try their best. Parking is attached to the building and covered. The lounge and rooftop deck is nicely done and kept well for working for home or lounging. Cons: the building is old so the air conditioning and heating system is ridiculous. The building wont turn on the AC until June 1 and so you will literally live in sweltering conditions during the warmer months. Im talking 90+ degrees at all hours of the day. During the cooler months, there is no way to turn off the heat - so again, sweltering conditions, not as bad because you can open the windows but still. just Have several fans on hand. Parking is not secure nor safe. The cost of parking is comparable to the area, but not worth it. There is no assigned parking spot and the lot is also for public use. Also, its difficult to get in touch with LAZ Parking in case of an issue. The pool area is rarely clean (floor wise) I only used it once. The elevators are rarely fully working as well. I took my laundry to the laundromat and didnt use the laundry room because 1) the smell of the washers 2) If you lost or misplaced your card to use the W/Ds management cant replace it for you. You have to go through the third party for a replacement and when I tried contacting them I was unable to reach anyone. There were several times where my water was not running or the water pressure was nearly non existent. And lastly the trash smell permeates through the hallways and corridors! I lived across from the trash shoot and I could SMELL the trash in my apartment often. I also felt as if the price for heating/cooling/energy/sewer/processing fees were excessive for what we were getting. Overall, 3/10 but if youre young and looking for a nice location in the south loop at an affordable cost - 777, is your best bet.

Overpriced. Dormatory like apartments. Out dated appliances. Broken door handles. Windows and doors always broken. Tiles missing in bathroom. Stained tubs. Washing machines smell like mold and mildew build up. Terrible water. Heating and A/C controlled by building. Emergency exit stairwells always have some type of object obstructing passage. Lobby reeks of trash. Save your money. You're better off elsewhere. This place, or company, is not worth the price or the headaches.

The two pipe system on heating and cooling coupled with indifferent (or incompetent) property management means the building is unbearably hot in may and september. The place is also generally in poor shape, with, e.g., elevators and laundry machines regularly broken.
