|Recommended: YesGreat location and staff — Overall, this is a wonderful place to live The two-floor townhome is a great size and the balcony is definitely a plus. The location is great and it is such a joy to live so close to Schiller Park. It is still an apartment complex in some ways, which is evident when I can hear upstairs neighbors footsteps and next-door neighbors open and close their doors. There are a lot of dog-owners in the complex and in the neighborhood and most are good about picking up after their dogs, but I do often have to be careful when walking through the grass just next to my building to avoid stepping in dog poop.

|Recommended: YesBeautiful historic site in great neighborhood. — The grounds and units are absolutely stunning, and the neighborhood is to die for. It is a quiet, young, dog-friendly community.
Thank you, Christopher!
|Recommended: YesSuch a cool place — I have been so impressed with the helpfulness of the staff, their willingness to be flexible, and answer all of our questions. The apartment itself is so unique and unlike anywhere else I am obsessed with our big windows, tall ceilings, and original features from the school. I love this place
Thank you, Joanna!

Thank you, Sarah! We appreciate your review.
|Recommended: YesFirst few months review — It's a very clean and safe place to live. The residents and staff are nice, respectful and very helpful. Any time I've had a maintenance issue, it is quickly resolved.
One thing I would want to change is rent cost because it's often that you hear your neighbors sneezing, coughing, etc. and any time they close a kitchen cabinet or their laundry doors. In addition to that annoyance, the apartment complex doesn't offer amenities that are available at other apartment complexes pool, gym, resident business center . Also I believe the pet rent is outrageous, especially for someone who wishes to rescue an endangered pet at a local shelter. If a person is looking for a quiet and respectful place to live the Barrett is a great option for them.
Thank you for the review, Kaitlin.
|Recommended: YesGreat maintenance and great apartments — The Barrett apartments feel very upscale with nice touches everywhere. It was easy to get an assigned parking spot and having a garage in German Village is huge. The only thing I did not like about it was the Corporate feel of Casto. I have rented with Real Estate companies and from individual owners and individual owners are definitely aside from maintenance issues which are a dream with Casto to get fixed better as they care about your situation and will work with you. With Casto, it is all strict and there is no give, even if you are in a desperate situation. But otherwise, it was a great place to live.
Thank you for the review!
|Recommended: YesVery Enjoyable Community — Had a great experience living in our townhome. The only negatives we experienced were incredibly noisy neighbors constantly playing loud music well into the night and artificially expensive parking spaces in the lot. There was always ample parking so this wasn’t a major concern but asking for 100 a month for parking in Columbus is a bit absurd. All in all, we loved our stay in The Barrett, however. We would have continued to live there had we not been moved out of the city.
Thank you for the review, Nicklaus.
|Recommended: YesGreat Location — The walkability you get when you live here is amazing Being close to the park and all of the local restaurants means you'll alwys have something to do. The Barrett office staff is extremely personable and knowledgeable. Always responding quickly, friendly and efficiently. My unit is spacious and gets a ton of natural light that flows through the apartment on both floors. I love the fact that I have my own attached garage and each building only houses four units. I love calling The Barrett my home
Leonardia-thank you so much for this review! We appreciate your residency!
|Recommended: YesExcellent place to live — I have loved this apartment since moving in September of 2017 Not only is The Barrett filled with great design, that is truly unique, but the staff is always so helpful. I have live many places, and none of them take care of the residents like The Barrett staff. I plan on being here a long time
Thank you, Dean!
