Property Ratings at AQ Rittenhouse
Everything has worked out great. From the people working in the apartment to the amenities, we've had a great time at AQ Rittenhouse. In addition, the location is unparalleled.
I've always heard great things about this apartment from friends who used to live here, so I knew it was a good place—but actually moving in has exceeded my expectations. Everything I need is nearby, and the front desk staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. I'm really enjoying my experience here!
Living here has been awesome! The staff is nice and kind, and has been a great experience. Service requests are done next day and the maintenance staff are super cool.
Very nice people, good maintenance, great location. The only troubles are that the construction means that noise travels super easily, and stuff like people closing/slamming doors can be felt through the building. The other things is that the layout of the kitchen is pretty poor, just not very well designed with awkward drawer/cabinet placement.
I absolutely love it here! Beautiful view from my apartment is a bonus. The rooftop is a gorgeous amenity and great for the coming warm months! Staff is also super helpful and great!!

AQ Rittenhous has been a great experience so far. Nice staff and nice amenities. The location is great and the building is clean. The halls smell great every time you come in.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are glad that you are enjoying your living experience.
This is a good place to live. There are some quirks like every building but overall it is nice. The AC/heating system in my apartment specifically is extremely loud but that does not bother me. Management is generally responsive along with maintenance.

Great! Everyone has been very friendly, especially the maintenance staff and front desk attendants. The only thing I have to say is the garbage trucks are very loud in the morning from 4 AM-5/30/6 AM

My husband and I love living here. It’s the perfect distance from school and in a great neighborhood. It’s quiet and we never really hear our neighbors. Staff is friendly and respectful.

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We are thrilled that you have had a great experince so far.
My partner and I recently moved in, and the staff made it so easy. We really enjoy the apartment so far (even if it’s covered in boxes). I can’t wait to finish organizing it and making it cozy.

I love living the building. Everyone is friendly yet respectful, fun but professional. I feel very safe, and the staff is like part of your family --and it is so dog friendly!
Property Manager at AQ Rittenhouse, Responded To This Review
Thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate your kind words.
I love AQ rittenhouse. I moved to Philadelphia for work and had to move pretty quickly so I was a bit apprehensive on what to expect. It has massively exceeded my expectations. The staff is outstanding, the location can’t be beat, and obviously the apartment itself is very nice and modern. I’ve only ever had one small issue that required attention (sink) and maintenance responded within the hour when I put a ticket in. 24/7 doorman, very safe, quiet. I haven’t even taken full advantage of it but they also have an awesome rooftop for residents with an unbelievable view of the city, grills, and lounge space

I really love and enjoy to live here. Perfect area and clean building. Staff always working to have fun ideas in the lobby which we really appreciate
Absolutely love living at AQ! Management is so helpful and nice, and my apartment couldn’t be a better fit for me. And not to mention the location of the building is amazing!

It’s been great living here for the past year and a half! The staff is very nice and the management are always thinking of new fun ideas to encourage tenant interaction
I absolutely love my two bedroom apartment! It’s the perfect layout and space for myself and my cats. The windows and view are absolutely gorgeous as an added bonus!
The best move in process I’ve had. Everyone was so helpful. The staff even greeted us with a welcome home AQ gift. Location is perfect, a good mix of residential and hustle and bustle. I love it here!
The move in process was seamless and very welcoming! The view is amazing. I can tell the community here is very nice and that everyone here feels like it is home.

We're always here for you! If you ever need anything else, just give us a call or stop by. Have an awesome day!
The apartment is pretty good. There are 24/7 concierges guaranteeing the safety. However, it is bit of noisy near the street in the morning when cars passing by.
I love the building, the staff and neighbors. It is quiet but close to everything. The front desk staff is the best. The other staff is great as well. Feels like a little family!!
Great place to live in, beautiful rooftop! All amenities are great and there is a spacious kitchen and red floors. Very affordable considering the quality you receive.
Just moved in, apartment condition is good, office managers are really helpful, reception service is good, overall living experience is good

Thank you for your recent review of your apartment home at AQ Rittenhouse. We are here to help if you need anything.
Units have great finishes, apartments are clean, the staff is friendly! You cannot get better value for the location than at AQ Rittenhouse!
My experience living at AQ the past few months has been fantastic. From the friendly faces at the front desk to the amenities - you cant beat it!
The building is kept very clean, making it a pleasant place to stay. The reception and property manager are kind and helpful, providing assistance with various concerns. I'm glad I chose this place. It is definitely one of the best rental properties in Philadelphia.
The neighborhood is A with the dog park, Rittenhouse square, restaurants & grocery stores nearby. The apartment itself is very nice, but it is now 9 years old with no updates to the apartments themselves. The roof has been updated a few times, but it sucks that there’s only so many people allowed on it per unit AND that you have to pay $100/hour to even reserve it privately. We pay so much in rent that it should be included to be able to reserve it. The gym is also a hole in the closet. It needs to be revamped or they need to partner with a close by gym instead. The front desk people are supposed to be our security, but there’s no way they would be able to physically save any of us. It often smells like trash on the 1st floor since the garbage sits in the garage for days. They definitely need air fresheners on the 1st floor. And they’re so stingy about the A/C in the hallways and 1st floor. I shouldn’t have to sweat in the building at all. But I’ve never seen a bug so that’s a plus.
Property Manager at AQ Rittenhouse, Responded To This Review
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. The AC unit was repaired a couple of weeks back which resolved the issue to the lobby and halways being hot. We are working to see if there is anything we can do with the space of the gym or even the equipment. We do appreciate your feedback and please do not hesitate to stop by the office if you have any other questions or concerns.
From the third floor you get a ton of street noise at all hours of the day. The neighbors frequently have parties both upstairs and right next door, so I haven't gotten a decent night's sleep since I moved in. Noise cancelling earphones don't do much to alleviate the issue. There is a severe roach problem as well, since people tend to leave out trash in the staircase or out in the open. Repair happens quickly and management is responsive, but there are basically no amenities because the gym is too small to be used.
Nothing better than AQ rittenhouse! Friendly staff, i always get a quick response. Great view from the rooftop, i can be there for a long time and just relax :). I can say that this place is in a convenient location, everything is really close from here, and nights at Philly are really fun. I also can say that i feel safe living in this building, and most of the people that live here are really friendly.
pros: location and new construction cons: built by cheapskates! low quality, underperforming appliances and zero insulation. heating/cooling this "energy efficient" space costs $150/month! not enough hot water for 2 adults to shower in the morning before work. trash chutes are constantly overflowing and management is now leasing out rooms nightly so bedbugs and other infestations are only a matter of time. you can do way better, for same/less money, in the same neighborhood.
The AQ at rittenhouse is wonderful. I've been in two different units, the E, which is a bit smaller but has all the ammenities, and the A which provides two bathrooms and wonderful views. My girlfriend and I are looking to move into a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom E apartment. She thinks the rent is a bit too high, I tend to agree but for the location and ammenities you cannot really haggle. It's a beautiful property in a safe area of center city. Hopefully we can find an apartment we can agree on for the right price!
