Best apartment building in Oak Park, by far! Beautiful property and apartments with every amenity one could want; a super-friendly, helpful staff; and a wonderful, welcoming diverse community. Frequent planned activities for socializing, including a lovely holiday party last night with great food and beverages to accommodate everyone. Special shout-out to Ghadeer and Akya at the front desk; they go above and beyond to make the Albion special.

Literally so impressed by this place! 5 out of 5 stars, would give more if I could! Albion Oak Park is truly a luxury oasis nestled in the hustle and bustle of city suburban life ! Every inch of this location is in pristine condition and the staff are truly remarkable! I can't say enough amazing things about the wonderful young ladies at the front desk Ghadeer and Akya! Both of them present themselves in a way that is warming, welcoming and downright professional! On countless occasions I have found myself truly dependant on the knowledge and hospitality Ghadeer and Akya seamlessly provide! The big wigs at Albion Oak Park and Village Green really hit a home run with these two impressive ladies:) Overall the quality and lifestyle at Albion Oak Park is matched by none! For a truly uplifting and rewarding interaction don't hesitate to come check the place out!!!!

BEWARE living here!! Very unprofessional management staff, I lived here for about 1 year and a half and during my stay here I felt as if I was discriminated multiple times. The way that the staff treated me was unacceptable. They are very nosey and it feels as if you have no privacy. Also, whenever I submitted maintenance requests it took days for them to come out and take a look at it. I had to even track down the maintenance workers when I would see them in the elevator or hallway to get them to come to my unit after days of not having my maintenance request resolved or even acknowledged. When I first moved in, they also offered lots of community events but ever since they had a change in management, there are close to none. The amenities in the building look very appealing when you are touring the building, however there were many drastic events that happened on the 18th floor where people who aren’t even residents of the building were fighting, playing loud music, underage drinking and the police had to come and shut it down multiple times. Ever since these events, the 18th floor closes early to residents who are paying to be able to use the amenities.The pool area cabanas were unusable the entire summer because there was a storm and it caused the loungers to fly away and they did not get replaced.The fire pits no longer work on the 5th floor, nor the TV or the string lights. There are 4 grills on the 5th floor and only 2 of them work, every time I tried to grill they were always dirty.The hallways on my floor also were always dirty.I felt unsafe as there were a lot of break ins into my neighbors units from people who had access to the building and made a master key fob with access to any unit in the building and burglarized them.If you are okay with dealing with all of these ridiculous and unacceptable issues, then this is the place to go. Also upon my move out, the front desk staff told me I was not supposed to remove all of the trash from the unit of which I was moving out of, only to get charged $300 for trash removal when there was barely anything to even remove. I actually started to remove some bar stools and plants we didn’t need anymore and the staff told me not to worry about it and that they actually wanted it to take home. My key tag was even disabled 2 days before my Actual move out date for which I got charged for “pro rated” rent since I was only staying 1 week of the whole month. I’m paying rent for the place and my key tags were disabled?? So unprofessional. I got charged ridiculous fees overall and the manager-Leslie has been hard to reach via email with my concerns.Overall I would not recommend staying here at all, as I did not have a good experience here. There are plenty of other places in Oak Park that I’m sure offer a better living experience.

I loved living at Albion Oak Park, definitely the best apartment complex in the area! Beautiful amenity spaces, apartments have high-end appliances with floor-to-ceiling windows that provide wonderful views of Oak Park.Staff is friendly and kind, any maintenance issues were quickly addressed. Other tenants are friendly as well, one resident helped me load my moving boxes into the elevator when she saw I was struggling to maneuver them on my own!Apartments are very quiet, which was important for me as someone who was doing some work from home. Dollop Coffee just off the main lobby, an additional perk.The only reason I moved out is because I was relocating out-of-state, otherwise I would've 100% renewed my lease. Highly recommend!

I am in the process of moving into the Albion in September and so far the experience has been excellent. Adia has helped with all the details I needed, she has been very responsive in a timely manner and so I have high exceptions that this will be a great place to live.

My boyfriend lived here for a year while he was doing a fellowship at LUMC. The place is in such a great location, so cute! And the staff is so helpful and kind. Great amenities. Not far from downtown Chicago. Highly recommend this apartment.

Albion is the best apartments in Oak Park.We lived there for 2 years and were very satisfied. Excellent apartments with a good soundproof walls, modern, high-quality appliances. Very friendly and helpful staff, if there were any problems, they were solved very quickly.The only drawback for us was the parking, some parking spaces are little bit tight.There are many comfortable amenities in the building, where it was always very clean and pleasant to spend time. Terrace on the 18th floor with an amazing view of Oak Park.There is even a Dollop coffee shop inside the building, so you just need to go down to the lobby and enjoy delicious coffee.Great location, in walking distance from the apartments there are many cafes and restaurants, grocery shops.We are very happy that we chose Albion.

This apartment is AMAZING. The staff is so friendly. Birute is the best GM I have ever worked with. So friendly and so helpful. I knew I wanted this apartment since day 1 because of her and the teams hospitality. The location is safe and within walking distance to many bars and restaurants. The complex is very clean and modern. Exactly what I love. 5/5 would recommend. :)

I moved into Albion Oak Park about 2 weeks ago. My experience so far has been amazing. I hadn't seen the place in person until the day I moved in (I moved from SoCal) and I was not disappointed. Albion is even more stunning in person than the pictures posted online. The building and staff have completely exceeded my expectations. Stephen, Adia, and Suavette have all been super helpful and a pleasure to be around.Albion is perfectly located in Downtown Oak Park and has restaurants, bars, gyms, Target, and Trader Joe's all within walking distance.My only gripe with Albion so far is how small my washer and dryer are. But that hasn't been too much of a hassle.Overall, I feel very happy with my decision to lease at Albion Oak Park and have no regrets.

I scouted several apartments in Downtown OP and Albion OP stood out. First, I love the location, I'm the type that wanted to have a city life but yet there's still a touch of "suburbs". This place is accessible to a lot of restaurants, theater, and local stores which is a plus for me! Second, Albion apartment has so much cool, interesting and modern amenities that I can totally see myself utilizing them! I had a studio tour with one of the Albion's staff Adia, and she is amazing! she's very professional and respond so quickly to my inquiries. Lastly, I love how they are active on social media and not just show the apartment but also being active with the community that is so engaging! I can't wait to live here - Future Tenant!

Living at The Albion is a high-end experience. The building amenities are stunning (designer lobby, party room...). The views are beautiful. Most of all, the staff make the experience outstanding. Birute, the manager is extremely accommodating and thoughtful. Sarah decorates parties and makes killer drinks like a party professional. The building is a stone's throw to nice, downtown Oak Park restaurants. We will definitley miss living there!

Overall, I've had a fantastic experience living here at Albion Oak Park. I toured several complexes in the area interested in moving, and Albion ended up checking all the boxes. At the time there were several promotions, of which some are still active, that definitely helped make the decision. But the general aesthetic from floor to floor, including the hand painted floor designations and accent designs, as well as the exposed concrete used well as accents made for a unique design that definitely stood out immediately.The location is fantastic. No matter what you need, even in the colder months, this place is fantastically located. Target and Trader Joes within walking distance, Whole Foods not much further. A movie theater mere yards away, as well as a bevy of restaurants and stores to scratch any itch.I've had no issues with management responses nor any issues with amenities. Any maintenance issues were addressed promptly, whereas all messages to management were responded to within expectations as well. The pool, common spaces, and others were all upkept well, and made for great additions to the living experience. The mail room, as well as the package locker, were great additions, especially since I'd had issues with package access at previous apartments.There's always aches and pains with fellow tenants at times, especially as people learn the rules. But nothing that was ever out of the ordinary or upset or caused an issue with my living experience.If there are any drawbacks, the parking is probably the biggest. To clarify, I've had no issues with the facility I park in, but I park in a structure across the street, as it was part of the promo when I signed my lease. However, when asked about parking in the building structure when that promo was expiring, I was told it was at capacity and had a waiting list, of which I've heard no updates since. This has never been a huge issue, as the lot is quite literally across the street, but during certain days, that walk can be a bit biting.Overall I'd highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice upscale high rise experience. The staff are friendly and will work to make sure your issues are handled, and the location and amenities make it all the better.

Adia Robbins deserves a raise! :) She was so kind and patient during my application process. She made a nerve-racking process a breeze! I cannot wait to meet her in person and say thank you.

If I could give them 0 stars I would. Living here was terrible and stressful.I had neighbors banging on my wall. Tenants partying and making a mess in common areas then blaming me. I was constantly being harassed by management and tenants. One tenant even tried to poison my dog. Homeless people would access the garage and lobby and harass me. My sink had a water leak and destroyed all of my products. Management sent me email saying I would be responsible for any damage the water leak caused to the appliances. I didn’t have a working shower the entire time living there. They asked me to sign a non disclosure agreement to terminate my lease without payment and they still made a collection on my credit. Very disappointed would never recommend.

Adia is one of the most professional and nice leasing agents I've had the pleasure of meeting. I had the pleasure of touring both virtually and physically. I love the place. It's beautiful! Everyone seems so friendly, (which is really a breath of fresh air). The application process is so easy. Adia made everything very simple. It was really great working with her.
