      Great community, ammenities and are close to everything in the city south end. We have really liked our unit by the only downside is the massive increase in our renewal which was around $250. We are looking at other options but have loved living here.

      We have loved living here. It’s honestly been awesome. The lovely ladies at the front desk and Concierge have been awesome. Additionally (and most recently) we put it in a work order for repair in our closet. Within 2 hrs of the submitted work order, the item was fixed. Never seen such fast service before. This has made our experience here one in which makes us think we’ll stay another year here.

      Great apartment complex, but the shortage of EV chargers is a serious problem. I won't be able to continue living here if this isn't resolved. It's the only thing preventing a perfect review.

      Living at The Francis has been an incredible experience. From the moment I moved in, I felt right at home. The location is unbeatable—nestled in the heart of Uptown Charlotte, I’m just steps away from great restaurants, parks, coffee shops, and entertainment. Whether I want to catch a show, meet up with friends, or just enjoy a peaceful walk, everything I need is right outside my door.

      My resident experience has been great overall. The community is well-maintained, the neighbors are friendly, and the location is very convenient.

      Twelve pool chairs for hundreds of apartments is frighteningly ugly on the weekends when people are clumped all together, three and four to a towel, bringing yucky folding chairs and sitting a top picnic tables. It seems like false advertising to have a lovely pool and not be able to enjoy it. However, aside from that, the building is beautiful, and the gym is stunning.

      Property Manager at The Francis, Responded To This Review

      Thanks so much for sharing your feedback! We’ve received confirmation from our vendor that shipping for our new pool furniture will begin soon! While we’re just as eager as you are to see the new setup, these types of large orders can sometimes take several weeks to arrive. In the meantime, we’ve placed temporary chairs around the pool area so that everyone can continue to relax and enjoy the space. We truly appreciate your patience and can’t wait to unveil the new furniture very soon!

      I recently moved to the Francis, and I genuinely love it here. From day one, everything has been seamless, and I already feel at home. Big thanks to Tiara and Ty for being so helpful throughout the entire process - they made everything easy and stress-free. Also really appreciate the maintenance team and concierge - everyone’s been super responsive, friendly, and on top of things. The whole vibe here is peaceful, clean, and just feels right. I’m so happy I chose this place!!!

      overall amazing amenities, staff are very kind, and everyone is always willing to help. the only problem was the application process that was the most tedious thing in the world. however, it was worth it!

      Unfortunately, the last year of living here as not been enjoyable. Residents partying loudly at all hours of the night. Trash out in the hallways at all hours, including days we do not have trash pick up scheduled. Stains in the hallway carpet due to this. Limiting when we can use the amenities, I personally think the clubhouse should be available to residents at any hour with the amount we have to pay to live here and with residents working jobs at different hours sometimes you may need to use the facilities if you are scheduled for a shift outside of a 9-5. Light fixtures falling out of the ceiling due to upstairs neighbor dropping things on their floor. Security guards/concierge letting guests in the building without checking them in, when the policy is for each resident to fill out a form for guests to check in upon arrival. This place could use a revamp, and quickly. It's labeled as upscale living, but at the current moment I don't feel the building lives up to what it once was.

      Living at The Francis is fantastic. From the amenities to lovely staff, I wouldn’t want to rent anywhere else! The ease of living here, in Uptown where I can access a variety of things is one of the best parts.

      I LOVE living here so far and the concierge people have been top notch but everyone at the leasing office has been more incompetent than the next one. They made my life a living hell before I moved in yesterday. Each person telling me a different thing, And then lying stating they didn’t say it when I have their emails in writing. I’ve never been more gaslit in my life. The entire leasing office has disrespected me more in my 55 years than ever before. Each and every one needs a serious training on how to deal with perspective tenants and customer service.

      I’ve lived here for 15 months and highly recommend this apartment, especially if you’re new to Charlotte. The rooms, amenities, location, concierge, leasing office, and maintenance team are all outstanding and consistently exceed expectations. However, it’s challenging for EV owners, as charging stations are limited and extremely slow, making it difficult to find an available spot. I hope the community will soon expand and upgrade the charging facilities to match their otherwise impeccable standards.

      The Francis is the best apartment community in uptown! Great location and lots of variety to choose from in floorplans. Catherine at the concierge is so perfect for her position. She makes living here a delight. Tiara in the leasing office was exceptional. I love living here!

      I've been living in my apartment for 1 year now, and it's been a very positive experience overall. The community is friendly and welcoming, which has made settling in much easier. The location is convenient, with easy access to local amenities and transportation. The apartment itself is comfortable and well-maintained, providing a great environment to come home to after a busy day. However, a major challenge is the limited availability of EV chargers. They are often in high demand, making it difficult to charge my vehicle as needed. If this issue is not addressed, I may have to consider relocating in the future.

      The Francis staff, shoutout to Tiara, Catherine, and Claudia, have been nothing but professional and helpful during my move in. Tiara was super helpful and knowledgeable working with me to find the right floor plan and view. Claudia exhibited empathy and probity to help resolve a minor issue with my move in. Catherine has been a great resource and helping logistically get settled in my unit. I look forward to enjoying my new apartment and look forward to being a resident here.
