Renters Reviews and Ratings
Great staff and location!!!
December 9, 2024Location of The franklin apartments are a hidden gem…The Hop, Oakleaf Trail, shops and restaurants and bars. The staff is on top of any concerns and resolves any issues at warp speed. The atmosphere is incredible.Review from Apartments.com
Great location and communicative staff
March 13, 2024The proximity to the lakefront and Oak Leaf Trail make for nice walks and bike rides (and the apartment has bike racks). The neighborhood is actually fairly quiet. The workout center is another nice amenity, and the staff is communicative and there is a nice amount of space within the apartment unit.Review from Apartments.com
A great place to be!
March 12, 2024I love the location and how it is near Brady street but far away enough where you don’t get the traffic or noise of everything. The management is also incredibly responsive, which is something you do not get a lot of these days. Although there could be updates made and renovations to be done, it is overall a very affordable, clean, and safe place to live. I would recommend to anyone!Review from Apartments.com
Great place, great location, great people
March 12, 2024Have lived here for just under two years now and absolutely love it. Management does a great job of getting to things in a timely manner and engaging with the tenants. On top of that, the place is really nice and the location is awesome. Would recommend!Review from Apartments.com
Great place to live!
March 5, 2024The location is perfect, the units are updated nicely, the staff is friendly. The community feels like a home rather than a hotel, like a lot of the newer built communities in the area.Review from Apartments.com
Does the Job!!
December 19, 2023Good value for the size of the apartment and the amenities are decent. The gym could use an upgrade & some tenants could practice organization in the public spaces but I have no regrets on making the move from a private landlord to the Franklin :)Review from Apartments.com
Fixed Staffing Shortages Elevates the Rating
January 10, 2023The property is in a nice location and is clean with good appliances. After fixing their staffing shortages and new management, it bumps up from 4 to 5 stars.Review from Apartments.com
Comfortable, quiet, spacious
January 9, 2023The Franklin is in a great location - near a grocery store, downtown, bike trail, lakefront, bars, etc. The other residents are respectful and quiet. Management is friendly and always on hand to fix any maintenance problems. Last but not least the units are very spacious and comfortable.Review from Apartments.com
The "Class Act" Franklin on Ogden
January 6, 2023We downsized from our 30-year home in Bayside, to an apartment at the Franklin. It's a big change but the Franklin team made the transition easy and enjoyable. It's a great place to live. Prior to moving in the renovated apartment was deep-cleaned, new carpeting installed, and fresh paint. We have two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a den and a dining area. The large windows that face east and south bring in ample light and sunshine to warm the apartment. Maintenace does a great job of keeping the ...clean and in repair. And the building is generally quiet. Management makes every effort to ensure satisfaction. The Franklin is a "class act". If you're thinking of moving downtown or downsizing, this is the place to be!Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Good place and a great price
January 5, 2023I moved to Milwaukee out of stat, and I couldn't have gotten luckier with the Franklin. It's a great location, a walk to the water and the city, and it's at a great price. Highly recommend.Review from Apartments.com
Love it here!
January 4, 2023I moved into The Franklin back in September and have loved every minute of it! It is always clean and quiet, and neighbors and staff are always extremely friendly! It is also in such a nice area of the city; wouldn’t want to be anywhere else (:Review from Apartments.com
Excellent Staff
January 4, 2023Engaged and cheerful staff. Facilities are kept really cleanReview from Apartments.com
