  • Major Pest Problem

    April 2, 2023
    The property has a major pest/fly problem that management is not addressing. This was not the case in the previous year. Tenants are forced to purchase their own pest products because they get into our units. Dead flies all over the property. The building has started offering a monthly “pest control treatment” which has not resolved the problem. Move in at your own risk.

  • It's just a home away from home. Wonderful

    February 20, 2023
    This apartment is where I live. Trust me; this is one of the best apartments in Baltimore. The main draws are helpful staff, quiet surroundings, hygiene, and excellent facilities. Many important locations are within walking distance of the apartment. Even though I am a continent away from my true home, I felt at ease. Thank you very much.

  • Great Place to Love

    February 28, 2022
    Oh Wow, I have a lot of great things to say about 501 Luxury Apartments. I been living here thus far since October 2021. I enjoy the property a lot and cleanliness of the building. The Property Manager Star, Assistant Manager Jennifer and Maintenance Team always go above and beyond to make sure we “all” are okay. I enjoy getting Newsletters, Things To Do around Baltimore, and Updates about 501 Apartments. I enjoy living here despite what goes on in the surrounding area has nothing to do with 501 ...
    Apartments. It’s called “Life skills” you must know how to survive and defend for yourself. If your not to sure about Baltimore City do your research before moving here. It’s great place to live with nice and luxurious Studio, 1 to 2 Bedroom apartments. New Security staff is great and they get to work before there shift even start to make sure the Property Assets and Residents are safe. More importantly they make sure we get our packages and mail efficiently. 501 Luxury Apartments also have a Business Center/Lounge you can use to study, conduct meetings and better yet host events! They gym is small but enough space to work out and enjoy yourself. Parking/ Garage is safe and secured. FYI: As Residents it’s our job to walk our guest in and out the building. It’s our job to make sure we do not allow other cars or people to walk through our Garages if they do not have a key fob. It’s our job as Residents to make sure we keep each other safe and all doors secured and lock regardless. Over all, I enjoy living here the Customer Service is beyond Satisfactory! If I could I would give the Property 10 STARS

  • Good location Nice People

    February 21, 2022
    I am very happy to be here at The 501. The staff was very helpful from the time I did the application. I am not good with technology and the office ladies helped me a lot. My fridge was broken and they helped me get another one ASAP. It’s close to everything and parking is good.

  • Friendly Staff and top notch security

    August 29, 2021
    Front staff quickly resolved issues I was having. The apartments themselves are really nice and affordable. Security here is top notch. Especially the wonderful young lady who placed a violation sticker on a vehicle in my reserved parking. She’s very involved and stays engaged throughout the night making it safe. I love these apartments and I am a real tenant writing this review. I just moved in on Friday and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Starr and Jillian for all you do to make this place ...
    safe and friendly.

  • A Great Place to Call Home

    May 17, 2021
    I would like to take a moment to say thank you to Jeri, the APM at The 501 for always providing excellent customer service and going above and beyond to make my residency here worthwhile. From the rapport that she’s built with my roommate and I since when we first moved here in 2019 until now. This was our first apartment and I can truly say it was a great choice.

  • Safe place with great value

    February 21, 2021
    Im Military and was looking for a studio that had everything for a less that a year stay before I retire. It was a great price in a secure building with everything rolled into one neat package. The building has a lot of amenities like the gym, secure parking, and laundry. I would recommend the building to students, small families, and professionals.

  • Great place to live

    February 5, 2021
    I've been living at the 501 for 4 years and counting. It's a great place to live. My friends are always impressed when they visit, the people here are friendly and clean. Their parking garage is HUGE. Everything downtown is close by and within walking distance. And now with more apartment buildings being built nearby, this neighborhood is changing for the better.

  • Affordable

    February 4, 2021
    I have been a resident for 4 years now and have no complaints. Affordable apartment located downtown with free Wi-Fi access!!!! The staff always respond to any service request I put in timely and efficient. Also I love the hardwood floors and updated appliances it really makes the apartment look very luxury. The cost is probably one of the best bargains you will get for the downtown area.

  • Great place, great value

    March 4, 2020
    The whole building is clean and well maintained. The staff is super friendly and approachable. I will say the wifi doesn't reach past the first floor, but there are very affordable internet plans offered. Electricity is a flat $40/month. I'm not sure why they don't just add that to the rent and say "all utilities included" but it certainly makes keeping track of bills really easy.
