January 18, 2025We had looked at several places but knew when we walked in to The Francis and met Allyson that this was going to be it! Allyson was so knowledgeable and really took the time to walk us around, show us the exact unit we would be renting and answer any questions we had. . Even on moving day which can always be stressful was actually so easy and having the freight elevator made it so easy for our movers! We are so excited to finally have the perfect place to call home!Property Manager Responded

January 3, 2025Absolutely love our apartment! Great window views, gym view and equipment is great, concierge is friendly and mail system is great. Only complaint would be the parcel parking passes, ours never work so we have to continually get temporary passes. Overall though, love The Francis!Property Manager Responded

January 3, 2025This apartment complex is located in one of the most convenient areas of Charlotte. The ground floor features a Whole Foods, Starbucks, and CVS, making daily errands effortless. Additionally, the light rail station on the second floor provides seamless access to the rest of the city, which is a major advantage for commuters and those who prefer public transportation. While the location is nearly perfect, one major drawback is the limited availability of EV chargers. For such a modern and upscale ...complex, the number of chargers is surprisingly insufficient. This often leads to competition among residents, creating unnecessary frustration for those who rely on electric vehicles. It would be great if management could address this issue and expand EV charging capacity to meet the growing demand. Overall, the location and amenities are excellent, but the lack of sufficient EV infrastructure detracts from an otherwise outstanding experience.Property Manager Responded

December 29, 2024I enjoy living at the Francis, great Community Manager and staff however; the parking and visitor situation is not the best for guests. I don’t like having to get up every time I have company to let them in. And residents can only have two guests in the amenity space without the option to rent it out. You’re only allowed 5 parking passes per month with limited access. I even purchased 10 additional passes upon moving in and they’ve never worked, so basically a waste of my money. Found a parking ...lot attendant in the parking garage one day and explained the situation to him, he gave me more passes that still did not work. So, it’s a lovely place but I’m personally not a fan of certain things.Property Manager Responded

November 26, 2024This is my first time living in the U.S., and Charlotte offers one of the best urban locations. However, for EV owners, the charging infrastructure in the parking area is lacking. There’s only one Level 2 charger available, so I wouldn’t recommend it.Property Manager Responded
