The Severn is an amazing and unique building to live in Baltimore. It has the best location in town at the heart of Mt. Vernon. Plenty of bars, restaurants, and cafes are around. Public transportations also available to anywhere in Baltimore. The Penn station is within walking distance. The light rail stop is also just around the corner, which would take you to the airport. The community is lively, safe, and friendly. The renovated apartment are in a very good status. Maintenance and admins are very responsive to any issues, even on the weekend. Access to the pool is a huge plus in the summer to chill and swim. The pool has a beautiful rooftop view of Baltimore and it is good sized. The gym is easily accessible and great for working out.

The Severn's elevator issues are out of control, we have had more than 3 breakdowns in the past few months, two of which resulted in waiting more than a week for repairs. During the big blizzard the elevator was broken and I witnessed several tenants slip on the spiral stairs. I have tried to be patient and understanding as this is a historical building, but this evening my girlfriend fell into the elevator and injured herself due to the fact that the elevator was not level with the floor and the elevator is now once again out of service. There was no signage to indicate an issue so unfortunately we must have discovered the disrepair. This thing is a lawsuit waiting to happen and more importantly tenants cannot possibly feel safe with the managements' continuous faulty efforts toward finding a long-term and safe solution for their tenants. This is past an inconvenience it is dangerous and is not being handled with any kind if appropriate response. Beyond the elevator issues there are major pest control issues. Do not rent here
