Beyond AMAZING!! My son’s apartment caught fire on December 23, 2024. He and two friends needed a replacement ASAP. Within 4 days the staff made it happen with ease!!! It is a really awesome apartment! Even better and without asking, staff and management helped out economically to make it affordable so they did not have to worry any longer!! They are now 100% back on track with their studies!! Many many thank you’s to Legacy, Joel, and their management team!!! You can not go wrong with these genuine souls♥️

The Carlton is a hidden gem! I’ve lived here for the past year, and it’s been nothing short of fantastic. The Apartment Store team is so accommodating and really makes you feel like a priority. They’re always available to answer questions and make sure everything runs smoothly. The apartment itself is spacious and well-kept, and the location couldn’t be better for Penn State students. The Apartment Store has made my college experience even better, and I’d recommend The Carlton to anyone looking for a reliable and student-focused place to live!

Living at Nicholas Tower was a great experience! The location is perfect—just a short walk to campus and downtown. The Apartment Store team has also been amazing to work with. Any time I needed something, they were quick to respond and super friendly. The building is well-maintained, and my apartment was clean and ready to go on move-in day. Highly recommend Nicholas Tower and The Apartment Store for any Penn State student looking for convenience and great management!

I’ve had an amazing experience living at Homerella Apartments! It’s quiet, cozy, and a perfect retreat after long days on campus. The Apartment Store team has gone above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of. Maintenance requests are handled so quickly, and they’re always so nice when you call or stop by the office. I would recommend Homerella to anyone looking for a well-managed, student-friendly apartment in State College!

Palmerton has been my home for two years, and I couldn’t be happier. The Apartment Store management team is hands-down the best in State College. They’ve always been so professional, friendly, and quick to solve any issues. My apartment is bright, clean, and super comfortable, and I’ve never had to worry about anything. For anyone looking for a well-managed apartment near campus, Palmerton is the place to be. The Apartment Store truly takes care of its residents!

I lived in Nittany Gardens at Waupelani Drive. My experience was positive... the apartment was neat and spacious and the office staff were always friendly. And the maintenance men were seriously the friendliest people ever.
Overall a nice, quiet living experience. It's a cheap way to live if you don't mind living far off campus. I rode my bike to campus and also had a car as a backup. Bus route was also available.

EDIT: UPDATE. JUST GOT BACK MY SECURITY DEPOSIT. I CLEANED MY APARTMENT VERY WELL YET THEY CHARGED HUNDREDS IN CLEANING FEES. DO NOT EXPECT TO GET BACK YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT. SAD!

I’m so glad I chose The Bellaire for my junior year! The Apartment Store has been amazing from day one. Move-in was smooth, and the team has been super helpful with anything I needed. The Bellaire is in a great location, and my apartment is spacious and updated. It’s obvious that The Apartment Store cares about their properties and their residents. I’d recommend The Bellaire to any Penn State student—it’s been such a great place to live

This is my second lease here. The houses are pretty clean, the neighborhood is very good and green, you don’t have to care for parking permits here, and frankly there’s always space for more cars. The maintenance here is always good, they almost always respond immediately. Even on weekends, we got emergency response from them. They helped every way they can. I lost my car keys once, and found them in the office, someone nice must have left it there. Their balcony is very spacious, and not in any way shared with another balcony (which may not be the case in other apartments like Vairo, College Court or Parkway Plaza).

A few things I don’t like: during inspections, after knocking, they will go into your room and start doing their works. Another thing: they will deduct a good amount from your deposit to clean the apartment and the carpet. We left the apartment in a pretty nice shape, still they deducted ~$300. I get that they are professional, but this cleaning costs far less in other apartment housings.
