Apartments near Charlestown, MA

“Recently moved into a studio and could not be happier! Both buildings are well maintained and everyone is so kind. Special thanks to Matt from maintenance and Braden from the leasing office for their help with the move in process.”

“Harborview at the Navy Yard is a great place to live. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the building is beautiful and well maintained, and the location is perfect. It's a very peaceful area, and a short walking distance from all the action of downtown Boston. If you want the best of both worlds, this is it.

I highly recommend this apartment community!”

“Eddie and Roman from the maintenance team at Hanover Alewife are truly exceptional. Whenever we report an issue, they don’t just stop by to take a look, they make sure the problem is completely resolved. Every concern we’ve raised has been handled quickly and efficiently, and they’re always prompt and respectful of our time.

The 5 stars are especially for these two. They are a huge asset to Hanover Alewife.”

“I had a great experience working with Paul as he is very accommodating as well as helpful in all areas of living on the property, from getting in touch with maintenance as well as general lease information is very clearly explained by him, and if you are thinking of moving to the building I would definitely recommend getting in touch with Paul Nguyen!”

“Just wanted to give a big shoutout to the front desk team of 303 — they’re amazing! Mustafa (and another gentleman whose name I don’t know) are always super kind, professional, and helpful.

I called a few months after moving out, and Mustafa still remembered me! He was so nice and went out of his way to help with what I needed. It honestly made my day.

It’s rare to meet people who care that much — the management is really lucky to have such great staff at the front desk!”

“Being homeless is hard on you so when I arrived with my wagon full of stuff I left everything in the lobby near the security guard. I checked in with lesha and we talked for a little while to discuss what apartment I was interested in. After we talked for a while I gave her my mass ID and she gave me the information for the apartment that I was going to look at. One of the tenants in the building helped me figure out how to use the elevator and when I got to the apartment on the 13th floor I couldn't figure out how to open the door so I went back and talked to lesha again. She helped me figure out how to open the door and then I went and checked out this beautiful beautiful one bedroom apartment on the 13th floor. I don't necessarily like the refrigerator but it's uniquely different. The apartment was not made for handicapped individual but it was nice just the same had plenty of room plenty of closet space and there's so many possibilities of how you can decorate this one bedroom apartment. There's enough space across from the kitchen to put a little dining table and some chairs and then close to the window would be your living room so you'd be able to set up your flat screen TV a table a sofa whatever you want then in the bedroom it's big enough for like single bed or full size bed and you still have plenty of space for all the essentials you need you know trash can dresser whatever. They include with the apartment the refrigerator and a microwave and they have a washer and dryer stacked on top of each other when you first come in the door to the apartment. It also includes a dishwasher and a very unique looking oven and stove combination. The only thing I noticed was that the oven and stove are like handicap accessible. The stove is one of those electric cooktop ranges and then underneath is a small standard oven. I don't plan on cooking too much for the holidays in this place it's just not big enough to put in a 10 lb turkey and make all the pies the cakes and the stuffing and big macaroni and cheese that I normally make. I don't like being up high I prefer being down low when it comes to these high rise apartments but this was a very nice place. I enjoyed help everything looked and I enjoyed talking with the security guard and lesha. Thank you for the beautiful experience.”

“Really enjoyed living here. The community is friendly and respectful. The management team has been professional and warmly supportive. Recently our bathtub drainage issue has been fully resolved. The service was timely, professional, and very much appreciated. We’re grateful for your quick response and support.”

“I don't usually write reviews, but Jimmy Ngu genuinely deserves one. From the moment he showed us around the building on our very first tour, he was warm, knowledgeable, and never made us feel pressured. He just made us feel at home.

Years and half later, that hasn't changed. Any time we've had a question — big or small — Jimmy has been there with a quick, helpful response. He made the lease renewal process smooth and stress-free.

Having a leasing agent who actually remembers you, cares about your experience, and goes out of their way to help is rare. If you're considering this building, know that you'll be in great hands with Jimmy.”

“I’ve been living at 660 for 3 1/2 years and the staff and concierge are always super helpful and kind!! I have weekly deliveries and Ed & Dave are always on it with assisting me.”

“I couldn’t be happier with my experience at RE150 in Medford! From the moment we toured the apartment, Dana at the front desk went above and beyond. She guided us through the logistics, answered all of our questions, and has been incredibly helpful with every maintenance request since moving in. The management team, including David and Kathleen, is also fantastic—responsive, professional, and genuinely caring about residents. The apartment itself is well-maintained, comfortable, and a joy to live in. Dana and the entire team make living here an outstanding experience. Highly recommend RE150 to anyone looking for a great place to call home!”

“I lived here for all four years of college, and this apartment truly made my time in Boston happier. I honestly think this is the best apartment in Boston. The building is well designed and well maintained, and the location is super convenient. Everything you need for daily life is nearby, and the staff has always been friendly and responsive!

Special thanks to Marcus for helping with my move-out process and for following up on my security deposit check after move-out — I really appreciated it!

After living here for several years, I can confidently say this is the best apartment I’ve ever lived in. It made a big difference knowing the staff genuinely cares about residents, even after move-out. Highly recommend!”

“Matt is the best!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I truly felt compelled to take the time and write a review because of how exceptional our experience has been with Matt, the Leasing Consultant here. It’s rare to find someone in leasing who genuinely cares this much about residents’ experience.

We scheduled an apartment tour online, and Matt gave us an incredibly informative tour. He patiently answered what must have been hundreds of our questions. My husband and I can be a bit of an anxious couple with many follow-ups and double-checks, but Matt has always responded promptly, clearly, and with so much patience. He often went out of his way to make things clear and easy for us --- move-in logistics, billing details, ESA documentation, etc --- Matt truly seems to have an answer or solution for everything.

We really appreciate Matt and honestly credit him as the main reason we decided to sign here. We just moved in last week and already feel right at home.”

“We absolutely love this place! The community is great, facilities and amenities and top notch. The management really values and care for their residents, any issue is being dealt with swiftly.”

“Shazam was very helpful to me. Gave me excellent service. Let me in the building to leave a package for a resident so it wasn’t left outside. Highly recommended for his position.”

“Excellent place to live, for the price, at such a convenient location. The apartment management is very helpful and we had a great time. Special mention for Brandon, Noah and Paul.”

“We lived at the property for almost 2 years. The maintenance team (led by Mandio) there always went above and beyond whenever we needed them the most. We had our water boiler, air conditioner and dishwasher all give out within weeks of each other. We could have had a very bad experience but thankfully they were there to make sure our issues were promptly fixed and stayed in constant communication while doing so.They were always professional, attentive, and responsive when we needed them. Availability is key for a team like theirs and they exceeded expectations every single time they were needed.

From the very beginning to the very end, Mandio made sure everything went as smooth as possible whenever we had any issues.”

“I’ve had a great experience living at Riverbend on the Charles. The community is well maintained, peaceful, and in a beautiful location by the river. What really makes a difference, though, is the staff. Nicole and Rolando have both been incredibly helpful, professional, and responsive whenever I’ve needed assistance. Their friendly attitudes and excellent service make living here even better. I truly appreciate how much they care about residents and the community. Highly recommend Riverbend on the Charles to anyone looking for a great place to live!”

“Great place to live! Vannah & Arief are pleasant to work with. The move in process and application was a breeze. When we moved in if we had any small requests it got taken care of so quickly and with no questions. The management & maintenance team make this place special and it should be noted that for people to be aware. They are the ones that make this place special.”

“I recently moved into 91 Sidney in Cambridge after relocating from the UK and had to choose my apartment virtually. I went through a lot of options, but this one stood out right away. After living here for a couple of months, I can say it was the right call. It’s been a great experience so far.

The apartment itself is bright and comfortable. It feels well laid out and was easy to settle into.

The location is hard to beat. Everything I need is within walking distance (Hmart & Target & whole foods) Central Square is right there, and it’s easy to get anywhere or into Boston. Logan Airport is about 20 mins away, which has been a big plus for my travel schedule. There’s also a dog park next door, and parking is right next door.

The building team has been great. Friendly, helpful, and easy to deal with. Sandro Galdamez from maintenance has been super helpful and took the time to show me how to use the hvac system (heat/AC), which I really appreciated.

They recently hosted an egg hunt event for the kids, and my little one had a great time. There were a ton of eggs and treats for everyone. It was well organized and thoughtful. Everyone has been welcoming, and I appreciate events that are geared toward young families.

Lee Tran played a big role in my experience from the start. He walked me through multiple facetime tours and followed up with photos and videos so I could understand the space properly. He was patient, responsive, and made the whole process feel much easier, especially moving from another country. Out of all the buildings I looked at, my experience with him stood out the most. He knows the area well and helped guide me to the right unit for me and my kid.

The only downside is parking is about $450 a month, but that’s pretty standard for Cambridge & Boston so it’s understandable.

Overall, I’m really happy here and would recommend 91 Sidney to anyone looking in the Cambridge area.”

“Maintenance team have been amazing here at Beach House Apartments. During and after this massive snowstorm we just encountered they kept the outer sidewalks, driveways, and all entrances cleared from snow.
During this time our dryer stopped working properly and could not be used. Today they came to the apartment and totally repaired it. I was amazed by their quality and cleanliness of the work. They were here about 1 hour and completely repaired the machine. Amazing work effort and knowledge! Thanks gentlemen you are the best!”

“I had an excellent experience working with Katriana Lombard-Lima during my leasing process at Avalon at Assembly Row. Despite living overseas, Katriana made everything smooth and stress-free. She patiently answered all my questions, provided clear guidance, and ensured I felt confident throughout the process. Her professionalism and responsiveness truly stood out!”

“I have been living at Market Street Apartments for three years. When I moved in I didn’t know what to expect because I never lived in an apartment complex. I soon found out it was a great place to live. It is very secure and people are extremely pleasant. Maintenance is great, they are right there when you need them. Office personal is wonderful. They are very accommodating, pleasant and very personable. I made the right choice when I moved here. Lisa and Rachel are great.”

“This is a wonderful place. Especially we never see the service people, but the halls are clean, the gym always has all necessary disinfecting wipes that makes area always cken. This is a professional service, thank you!”

“Not at all luxurious, but perhaps the most convenient place to live as a college student, young professional, and any other person seeking very affordable housing in a prime location of Boston (3-minute walk from a T station and a BU Bus stop, across from BU campus, nearby Newbury). If you are not built for communal living, this place will not be for you - otherwise, it is comparable to any college dorm I’ve ever lived it. Noise, breakdown of amenities (laundry room was honestly a consistent issue - I’ve had to ring my clothes out by hand on several occasions because of the faulty machines), and other similar issues are definitely present, but I found it manageable. Also there was a minor issue of some pests in the building (roaches, other bugs, occasional mouse - the common city life pest issues), but I never had an issue with pests in my personal room; as long as you keep things relatively clean in your own area, I doubt you will have any issues. Most of the residents are friendly and generous with sharing food and other things with their neighbors. Until recently, the building was almost entirely young college students or recent grads and older women. However there was a slight shift in residents around the time I left and I would be lying if I said it didn’t change the culture a bit (I left at the end of 2024). However, once again, if you are looking for a very convenient place to live (likely short-term - I lived here for about 3 years without any major/unmanageable issues), then this is absolutely a great option to consider. I am very grateful that this was an option for me for that chapter of my life.”

“I had a great tour guide, who showed the properties in the very best light. He answered all of my questions, was very patient,. If I choose to live here, he will be one of the main reasons.”

“In all my years of renting, this probably has been the best and most customer-friendly place I’ve rented in. To the point that I have actually re-leased with them.

Extremely customer-centric. Leasing agent Ravi has been exceptional. He, along with Residences at Malden, have gone above and beyond to help accommodate me during my rough situations regarding work and lease times.

They’re also pretty good with maintenance. I noticed a couple issues in the apartment when I moved in. I put in a couple work orders. Someone was there (within 24 hours!!) and got everything fixed.

Lovely gym, very clean public spaces. They’ve got Luxor for their packages so I’m never worried about my packages being stolen.

Location is pretty sweet because I can count to a 100 and I’ll be at the Malden center station.

Only downside: I wish there was a pool table :D”

“just recently moved into the building. Akeyla and Kristin have both been fenomenal helping me with everything as I’m from another country . The service are so helpful and fast ; get the job done right way … Great location apartment is great and clean .
I’m so happy to be here ❤️.”

“Thank you to Jaimie Edo and her team Ariel Sheris and Steven Ally for all the support you provide our residents every day at Quarry Stone @ Overlook Ridge. The residents are very fortunate to have such a professional, responsive and proactive team to answer and respond to all of our questions and concerns with a cheerful look and attitude. The true test of a property management team is their performance under the worst circumstances and this team has demonstrated More than once. I have firsthand experienced this team nothing short of spectacular.”

“As a resident of Metro Marina Bay for nearly 7 years I have nothing but great things to say about the property - and the lovely people who manage and maintain it! They are attentive to details and treat every resident like family. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for an alternative to city living, the proximity to the city - and all that Quincy / Marina Bay has to offer can’t be beat.”

“Hello, I would like to leave a positive review for the management office at The Chase Apartments. I had a problem with my upstairs neighbor’s children making a lot of noise from about 9:00 p.m. to 3:30 a.m. since I moved in. After I submitted several complaints and spoke with the manager in the office, she talked to my neighbors, and the situation improved a lot. I really appreciate the help and professionalism of the management team at The Chase.”
