The Bernardin is a terrific building. Its office staff, its door staff, and its maintenance staff are professional, responsive, efficient, and charming. It is a pleasure to deal with them. The building's amenities are simply breathtaking. The club on the 25th floor is beautiful, the workout area is above all expectation, and the lobby is a gem of design and comfort.

My experience at The Bernardin has been both very professional and pleasant. Starting with the management team of Diana, Krystle and Jonathan I find them to be very accommodating by being quick to respond to questions as well as resolving any issue. In addition the concierge and engineering folks are first class. Although The Bernardin is undergoing a major upgrade, which is somewhat disruptive, it is clear that the end result will be well worth it.

Constant construction noise throughout the building. I get that they are trying to update the apartment building to make it more modern but this is getting ridiculous. Not only that, a washing machine recently broke down in a unit like 10 floors above ours and flooded all the units below including mine and they weren't apologetic AT ALL and didn't even offer to compensate us for the inconvenience - having to let people in and out of our apt for days, or for having to live in an apt with water damaged floors, or for all the electricity they used in our unit running the fans and dehumidifiers to rectify something that we didn't even cause. We've put in a few maintenance requests yet they never bothered to fix anything yet they always demand immediate entry to our apartment whenever they suspect there may be an issue. Seems like they care more about renovating the older units so they can charge more rent for them than maintaining the existing units that residents currently live in

All good! A definitely special place. There are many elements in evaluating our community and The Bernardin knocks the rating of each of them "out of the park".

Current management is the worst

Lived in this building for the past 4 years and have never had any issue till now. The property manager is very unprofessional and rude, and my husband and I have had to deal with a crazy neighbor that has been accusing us and getting the management to harass us for things we haven't even done. Instead of speaking directly with us she'll retaliate by banging on the wall whenever we are watching TV in our bedroom, accuse us of smoking weed and get the conceirge or building management to either constantly call us or knock on our door. It's ridiculous. Ever since Lincoln property has taken over the management there's been nothing but issues, and the management loves to threaten residents with evictions and 10 day notices whenever there is an issue. It's honestly really sad because this community used to be great and we used to love living here. Would never recommend this building to anyone as long as Lincoln property is managing the place.

I love my apartment (my space), I love how small the building is, but rent prices are too high and the building offers nothing that other buildings don't have.

The location is... (Verified Renter)

The location is amazing. The staff, especially Andre and Alejandro, are wonderful. They make our day whenever we see them. Our biggest complaint is the noise from the seeming never ending sirens down Chicago Ave but there's not much the building can do about that.

Awesome Apt in an Awesome Location

The Bernardin has it all. The spacious apartment we moved into was immaculately cleaned prior to our arrival. While a few minor maintenance issues existed, management fixed them within 24 hours. I can't say enough about the friendly tenants and the even friendlier concierges. While we haven't used the various amenities as of yet, the pool is sparkling, the hot tub inviting, and the fitness equipment is brand new! Just a matter of time. The location is prime - a plethora of restaurants, coffee shops, nail salons and other businesses are just a few steps away. The red line is one block west and Michigan Ave is one block east. Who could ask for more? We are truly loving our new home!
