Vox on Two

Drew

I do not believe you are going to find a better apartment building in Cambridge. This is truly a luxury apartment, where you get a better experience for a higher price. Sound: A+. -The only indication I had of neighbors was the faint sound of my next-door neighbor's dog barking, which could only be heard from my bathroom. Incredible. The windows are insanely well made, so street noises are absolutely minimal. Leasing/Management: A+ - I had my security deposit returned to me in full without having to even ask after moving out. An actually ethical apartment manager? I know, I didn't think it was possible too. - Emails are always answered extremely promptly, politely, and professionally. - I had an issue with a double-charge that was resolved within 24 hours with minimal effort on my end. - Any time I asked someone at the front desk for help, they accommodated my request with a smile. Build: A+ - This is an apartment that was built with care and with incredible attention to detail. Everything in the apartment is carefully selected to make it as livable as possible. - Insane amounts of storage. If you need more, you can rent a storage unit near your apartment at a very reasonable rate. - Bath tubs are MASSIVE, appliances work great, the dishwasher can clean anything. My only complaint here is the fridge door sometimes didn't close all the way unless you pressed hard. - Sink faucet pulls out for ease of use, kitchen storage is sizable, interior fixtures for lighting provide ample coverage. - Fireplace can be switched on just by turning on a light switch. Amenities: A - (I did not use the pool or movie theater) - This is the only place where Vox fell a little short. The gym needs a little bit of love. 3 pieces of cardio equipment were out of commission for 2+ months. When I moved out, 2 were still not operational. - It is not easy to adjust the pully weights equipment. Changing the weight often requires you to push hard, or pull on the cable to try to force it through. You can make it work, but it's not great. - Gym usually has 3-4 other people in peak hours, 0-1 in off-peak. This means it's a little crowded to workout unless you can go during weird hours. -Never had any problems with the trash chutes. It was extremely simple to get rid of trash. Location: A+ - There are INCREDIBLE walking trails right outside of vox. I could not stop going on walks while living here because of all the beautiful areas you can walk to. If you live here, be sure to explore on bike or foot. There are beautiful boardwalks over nature reserves where you will frequently encounter deer, swans, and many other wildlife. Stunning in fall. - Walking distance to the Alewife station. You can also walk to nearby stores, even though it's a bit of a journey. - Super close to 3 grocery stores (trader joes, star market, whole foods). For ultimate convenience, I recommend star market's delivery program. - Super easy to drive out of this location. Turn onto acorn park drive to save a ton of time when going west of Vox. I found my commute to Waltham typically took 5-10 minutes less than GPS estimates. -Parking here for guests definitely is suboptimal. I would not recommend these apartments if you envision having multiple guests visit you at a time, as the closest "easy" parking option is at the Alewife station, and the Vox guest parking option is difficult to plan for. Move-In/Move-out: A+ - Leasing was super responsive during move-in, checked in with me constantly, and helped make a stressful day a lot smoother. - Apartment was in great condition with no gotchas. Leasing even warned me before signing my lease that there would be some construction outside my apartment. With the high-quality noise insulation, it was a nonissue, but I appreciated the transparency. - Move-out was simple. I unfortunately had to break my lease early (this kills the bank account) but it was a very smooth process. Maintenance: A+ - I only made 2 maintenance requests, but they were both completed within 24 hours. Emergency took <1hour.

I had the best time living at Vox over the past year! The building is so close to the red line but also provides residents with lots of outdoor space/access to nature. The leasing agents and maintenance team are fantastic (big thank you to Tom & Gida who truly made my experience here).
