I am an international scholar and I moved to Madison to pursue my research. I would like to live near the lakes because I heard Madison is famous for its beautiful lakes. I found Watermark Lofts online and as soon I saw the pictures of that apartment, I decided I will take it. The property manager, Cora, is very nice and helpful! I wasn’t in U.S when I applied the apartment and she helped me get all the application work done. The apartment is great, and it has a gorgeous view of lake, which I think it the best part of my room. The residents here are also very friendly. I would highly recommend Watermark Lofts for anyone who is looking for some apartment to rent in Madison.

I lived here for 3 years and can honestly say it's been my favorite apartment I've ever lived in. I would've loved to stay but unfortunately the rent went up drastically and I had to move out of state anyways. Pros: - great location with the lake, the bike path, downtown just a short drive away, nearby parks, and alliant energy center. The area is pretty safe and I don't remember anything crime-related other than one car chase resulting in someone crashing into the nearby chain link fence. - the unit was almost spotless when I first moved in. You could tell they did a thorough job cleaning and maintaining the room. - fitness room has dumbbells, treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, and a cable machine - if you want garage parking, there's a cheaper option for split parking where you can have a spot during non-business hours and weekends - regardless, there's plenty of parking space on the road leading in - maintenance was quick to respond to issues in my unit and common areas - clean common areas like the community room and fitness room - secure package room - very few issues with bugs in the unit - roads and parking lots get plowed pretty quick after it snows - very smooth move-in even during the pandemic thanks to Cora, but she has since left - management is professional and polite and will let you know in advance if they enter your unit - trash is routinely emptied, but a few times in summer months it gets full from people moving - my unit especially had ample storage in both the kitchen and bathroom (not even counting the storage room) and lots of counter space - there were social events held by the building and sometimes residents - small community so the premises are never crowded - very little trouble with noise since the walls were pretty thick. The floors seemed thinner but still it was barely an issue - free coffee - when I first moved in, rent was very good for its size and location - the rent you see is the rent you pay. No hidden fees for trash, water, laundry machines, building protection, etc (other than parking but you can opt out) Cons - energy bills are pricey and my summer AC caused my bill to go over $100 a month. This is when I kept the AC around 79, and I don't want to imagine the bill if I used it more. This probably isn't in the apartment's control, but I know people in other parts of Madison who only pay like $30 - rent is going up fast, it jumped almost $200 for my 1B1B unit but I had to move out of state regardless. Even if I could stay, this rent hike seemed too big. - my unit faced John Nolen which was super busy, and also the beltline, so it was really noisy if I opened a window. - the garbage room is only on the 1st floor, so you'll have to drag your trash all the way there - there's only one elevator and it's on one end of the building - small annoyance: furnace and AC are in the bedroom, so maintenance would have to walk through the entire unit to access them.
