What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Simon Silk Mill is praised for its gorgeous apartments and vibrant mix of businesses, offering a unique historic living experience. However, potential residents should be aware of significant noise issues due to thin walls and persistent parking challenges, which have led to dissatisfaction for some.
"A MUST visit if you are in Easton about 30 businesses on site. Something for everyone, from bridal, health, sweets, good food to wine and brews. Just wonderful place to walk around and soak in the beauty of the buildings and the charming businesses located within."
Kathryn Ford
"i love living here. the apartment is gorgeous and well worth the money in my opinion. these reviews are not it. you are moving to a historical building, you should expect thin walls / to be able to hear your neighbor. also - they are very up front about parking during a tour. i haven’t had an issue finding parking somewhere on the grounds, although sometimes i have to walk farther than i’d like. if you want a designated spot you can pay the monthly fee, although i choose not to. i love the access to all the shops / restaurants and the gym here is gorgeous. highly recommend!"

"Paper thin walls. You’ll hear every conversation from neighbors. A huge privacy issue. Couldn’t sleep from noisy street traffic. Frightening police raid in my building in the middle of the night. Loud construction during the day. Some buildings have secure entrances and some don’t. Mine didn’t. This was an issue for me. The worst was having no designated parking spaces for tenants. Paying high rental prices, and not getting a good quality of life, is unacceptable. I was towed along with many others for not being in a proper parking space, because some nights after waiting over 35 minutes for one.. I gave up. Restaurant bar customers filled the parking lot in the evenings. It cost $400 to get my car back from the tow yard, and I had to go through the stress of having the tow company yell at me on the phone demanding cash only, non-negotiable. It took 3 days to get my car back. This was AFTER I had brought these issues to the office for many months, along with other tenants, and we were told that since they were under construction we had to deal with it. Then during the pandemic, they offered no lenience. Needless to say, I broke the lease. (Maintenance was friendly when needed)"
