Parkway Plaza

The rooms are larger compared to other apartments. The whole apartment area is well maintained and maintainance team is prompt too. They have recently made a few upgradations and the rent has increased accordingly. Overall a nice place.

A great location and affordable place to live!!!!!

For a cheap price, the building is ok. It is obviously outdated and not always the most well maintained, at least in building C where I am staying in. I was orginally appalled with the room I had been given, having the floors be disgusting and uncleaned and the kitchen light not working. However, the staff is nice and respondent enough to address issues you may be having from the space.

Living here is very safe and comfortable, even at such an affordable price. I brought my family here, and my two kids love playing around. Additionally, it only takes five minutes to walk to Weis for my daily needs. So far, it’s hard to find any negative points about Parkway. Lastly, I love the wide, open view with not too many buildings around

My roommate and I live in a 2 bed 1 bath apartment and we were both very surprised to see just how spacious the area was. Even after unpacking all of our things nothing felt crowded or crammed

Rooms are pretty big, pre furnished costs aren’t too high, each second floor has a washer and dryer room so there isn’t too much of a wait, comes with an all route bus pass so transportation is easy. Only complaint is that work order take a bit too long to be resolved.

I’ve lived here since 2020 in the same apartment. There have, of course, been several issues over the years but most have been resolved. The new management team is doing their best to make this place worth living at.

I am a PhD student and have been here for two years now and have my lease signed for the next year. It's a wonderful apartment with all the amenities that you can find in a college town. They give a free bus pass for all the bus routes in State College. It's walkable to campus. I am in the furnished unit and it has been very convenient. The building is a tad bit old but maintainance is always available. The staff is kind, friendly and helpful. It's a good place to live!

I have been living in Parkway for few months now, it has been blessing experience but I have few things that I didn’t like. The building is outdated and need a lot of improvements. There is many parts in my house that needed repair when I moved in and there is still many other. Maintenance is slow yet very helpful. The team usually responds fast so I did renew for another year, hopefully they will fix some of those issues.

Fairly priced. Maintenance team responds quickly to issues.

Office handles issues from residents quickly and the maintenance service is good

Other than the hot water sometimes not working, everything else has been fine and the staff and maintenance have been helpful.

Most issues with the apartment have been fixed. Good maintenance team that responds quick. Not a bad place to live and fairly cheap.

This place has some noxious smells. Lot of paint peeiling, mold seems to be a problem. Weird unexepected charges. Maintenance is ok. Office seems to only care about looks on the webpage and facebook that does not show the real conditions.

Before moving in, I have heard a few things about the place. It didn't bother me until it was my time to move into the place. My unit was in a bad condition because the previous tenant trashed the place and left just like that. The management apologized and they sent teams to clean the place. They even changed the flooring from carpet to vinyl. The place is unrecognizable now thanks to the management and the maintenance team. If you are thinking of renting here, just know that the management will be ready to help if anything happens.

Parkway Plaza may not be the fanciest looking appartments but the staff are helpful,the rent is reasanable and location is not to far from campus and is near Weis so grocery shopping is like a 5 minite ealk away. Also bus pass for all route is included in rent so it really great!

I’ve been living at Parkway Plaza in State College for about a month, and it’s been a pleasant experience so far. The neighborhood is quiet and serene, and I really appreciate the spacious room and the free CATA bus pass for all routes. The leasing resident coordinators are friendly and always helpful whenever I visit the office. The only downside is that the pool needs to be fixed, but overall, I’d definitely recommend Parkway Plaza to others. The community is diverse, and it’s well-suited for everyone—families, students, and professionals alike.

This place is a great place to live. Not only is it conveniently placed where there is access to groceries and other stores, but the bus runs right next to it and can take you anywhere and as a student it is very convenient. They provide many amenities that help new State college people make it more like home plus the staff is great at the leasing office. 10/10 recommend.

I’ve been living for two years now doing great for our first apartment.

Highly recommend A very spacious apartment… Been here for 5years and everything we loved here… Maintenance is good and very quick… This apartment have all the amenities one would search for… Very close to college

I’ve been a resident at parkway for four years now and have greatly enjoyed my time here. The leasing office has always been very helpful with any request I’ve had. -Tristan Moss-Vargas

My boyfriend and I are living together this school year in a 1 bedroom apartment. It is incredibly spacious and was clean when we got there. The patio is very spacious, and the kitchen has almost everything you need (make sure you bring a microwave). Laundry is quick and easy, as well as the trash chute making it easier to get rid of trash! Over all, I am very happy with the apartment and amenities :)

Nice apartment with a good gym. I’ve been here for about 2 years.

The person, Michael, who helped me schedule my tour over the phone was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful!

This property has a great location and is only minutes from downtown and campus! The office staff are also super helpful. (Celine Kristoff)

Parkway Plaza is a quiet haven nestled in a vibrant neighborhood. The management consistently keeps residents informed about activities, fostering a sense of community. Surrounded by friendly neighbors, this place provides a peaceful and welcoming living experience.

Parkway Plaza is wonderful Plaza to live in state college.

I signed with this apartment while the old management was here and they were very caring and extremely understanding people. Whatever changed I am unaware of. Rent is reasonable, however the $35 surcharge of paying online as a “convenience fee” is ridiculous. I also was trying to downgrade to something cheaper and more affordable and the property manager condescendingly explained why that was not possible. Moving from this topic to parking; parking is reasonable except for the consistent cars parked in the handicapped parking space who are clearly not handicapped and do not have a window designator saying they are disabled. It’s basically open parking and no one gets towed, but God forbid if you need a parking pass for family members and you come by the office 45 minutes before “closing time”, no one’s there and you risk getting towed.

I have enjoyed living here this year. Affordable and safe as well. My one bedroom is easy to access and good to live in. Also great internet ! Use an ethernet but there are excellent download times.

Nice affordable place with moderately convenient busses to get to campus. Plus a lot of space in the bedrooms and living room. Kitchen is a little small

A very affordable place with a good view, main complaint is it’s a little far off campus but the bus pass being offered is very helpful. (Grant Watson)

I enjoy staying here at Parkway Plaza. It's conveniently located near stores and provides easy access to downtown. The staff here are also friendly.

I've had a few issues over the course of my two years here (towing injustice, mold in my closet), but it's been a fairly decent stay otherwise. Washer and dryer on my floor, bus pass included in rent. Can't complain too much.

I just moved here from a small town and I absolutely love it here! The balconies are wonderful, you get to see a perfect view of the snow and trees. The floor plans are perfect. They are played out wonderfully. The bedrooms are much bigger than expected. And staff are so sweet! -Tatyana c

The rent is not too expensive, and the maintenance team checks every issue on time.

Have had nothing but positive experiences with the leasing office and maintenance for my apartment. This is a great affordable option for the state college area!

I greatly appreciate the convenience of the complex itself. It’s located really close to a grocery store and a bus stop. It’s also a short walk to campus.

The apartment complex is one of the most budgets friendly areas in state college, with literally all utilities included in the rent. Additionally, it's convenient in that it's both located near campus and offers a free bus pass (via CATA). It's a work in progress but the best value for your money

The bedrooms are bigger than in any other apartment. The rent is cheap and comes with a bus pass. There’s a balcony. This place is a great deal. I was worried it’d be too far from campus but the busses run late and it’s a max 15 minute walk if you miss the bus. Also the staff are great! 4/5 stars only because it’s a little far away to host friends.

I've been lived here for a semester and I can say it's a wonderful experience. Parkway plaza makes you feel like home and it's a quiet place for you to study and relax. It's close to Weis market and very close to the campus around 20 min walk.

Hi, I've moved to Parkway Plaza apartments this year and it's been five months. I'll talk about some pros and cons that I have seen and must be shared for future residents. Pros: - the rent include all utilities (electric, gas, internet), which is pretty nice - closeby with a walk of 20 mins to downtown - CATA bus pass is available but it only covers few routes and it would be great if more options were available. - HVAC is good (summers and winters both) so no worries about inclined weather (controlled by the property, tenants can turn ON/OFF only) Cons: - Old apartments and too many cockroaches in the units (lucky if your apartment is free of them) - Swimming pool is never open. - Fitness center have few machines (mostly cardio) - mail delivery is mostly at entrance (packages have been lost in the past) - Maintenance is not good, takes so much time and they try to fix usually instead of replacing them.

I think Parkwayplaza is a good place to live on with the most budget friendly apartment in state college. There new management is doing really great in terms of maintenance. The apartments are large and spacious. Although there are little issues but I think the management are taking care of those things and making the place a better one to live on.

A great place for students (living alone as well as with family) to stay. Best part is no hassle of arranging for a roommate in shared units. Rooms are big and affordable, quick maintenance is a plus. I've lived for more than a year now - no rats or insects, very good environment overall.

When I first moved here place is bigger than the previous place I live. And the staff been helping out make sure I payed my rent and doing fun events and stuff.

The staff here are very communicative and understanding. They are also very accommodating to having emotional support animals. The units are very spacious, especially the single-bedroom apartments. If I had one complaint it would be that the actual complex is older and does have its issues but the staff are always on call if any problems arise.

I've lived here for over a year now, and I love this nice and quiet place. It's not too far from the downtown and campus, and I also like that there's a bus stop and Weis nearby. Except for the fact that the rent is increasing, I think this is a perfect place to live.

The office people are amazing and go above and beyond to try and make your living situation comfortable!

Had an apartment for a few years and it was great location-wise. Good views, and was right next to Weis for convenience. The team was and has been incredibly helpful the whole way through.

Decided to get the unit for the price, which was the best I could find on the market at the time. Unit itself is a bit small, but certainly workable if you know how to use the space you have. Appliances are a bit old but all work well, and on the off chance something does malfunction maintenance has been kind and quick, so I never go long without the essentials. Moving in, there were some set-in stains in the carpeting, cracked paint, etc., but just cosmetic stuff— signs of wear, nothing to make me worried about the safety or comfort of living here. Overall good place to stay, especially on a budget

Staff handle issues in a timely manner. Although the building is old, the space you get for the price you pay is great.
