Not Luxury Living

June 15, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
Building in poor condition. Windows are permanently bolted close resulting in no fresh air. Did not meet my expectations for livable conditions. Over-priced for value offered.

I will not be renewing my lease

March 3, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
This building is full of roaches, the elevator breaks all the time (luckily I'm on the 3rd floor), the A/C was out for half of last summer and my floor constantly smells like weed. The apartment itself has terrible water pressure, cooking in the "kitchen" is a miserable experience, and the whole place just doesn't make sense. Don't spend your money here. Downtown living in a historic building is NOT what it's cracked up to be.

Best Maintenance Staff!

July 21, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
I live in the Barringer building. It is a historic building which means it can have problems from time to time, but the maintenance staff is always on it! I put in a work order for my sink and Eddie came and fixed it right away. Fast and friendly service is always a plus. The leasing office staff is also very helpful. They are sometimes short staffed, but they try their best and it shows! Every concern I have brought up they have been sure to follow up on and help to the best of their ability.

Thank you for the awesome feedback. We love that you had such a great experience! We truly value your recommendation, and are confident we can continue to provide excellent service in the future. Sincerely, Main Street Living Team

Worst place ever

May 16, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
I used to live in the Barringer building. It got laundry machines on the even floors. Unfortunately, quite a fraction of them did not function. That means people in the entire building only had 2 or 3 sets of working machines. What's worse, the staff barely cleaned these machines on a regular basis. That was awfully gross. My underwears were attached with dog hair every time I used these machines for watching.

THE place to live in the capital city!

May 10, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
I love the building, and decor, very trendy and modern. Central location on Main street provides endless entertainment and exquisite dining experiences. Amazingly friendly staff! Best place to live in downtown Columbia!

New Tenant

May 10, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
So far I'm liking it! Everything has been fast and acceptable. Leasing/management staff do stress the 60 and 30 day move out notices during signing of lease so they are working on past problems stated in other reviews. I'm sure I'll change this review if I feel otherwise in the future! The location is prime for anyone looking for events and things to do.

A location that can't be beat

May 9, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Great choice to experience downtown Columbia daily(they have multiple buildings around the area, all within a few blocks of each other). While I can only speak of my experience living in Barringer, the staff overall have always been helpful and prompt in responding to any requests. Waking up on Saturday mornings with the Farmer's Market just outside the door is a treat - not to mention easy access to the many festivals Columbia likes to host downtown. I do wish there was a change machine in the ...
building for the community laundry machines, or that I could open up the windows(Barringer specific I believe due to the age of the building), however this is a very small price to pay for a price/location combo that can't be beat(and free gym!).

Love it here

May 9, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
In my experience, Capitol Places is one of my favorite places I have ever lived. Maintenance is quick to respond if I ever have an issue and they are very friendly. The location of all apartments is ideal--right on Main Street. It is nice to be able to walk just around the corner to the leasing office to drop off rent, etc. Management does a really good job of scheduling resident outings, which creates a nice sense of community. As for the apartment itself, it is really cool living in a historic ...
building and a space that is as spacious as it is beautiful. I would definitely recommend living here!

Capitol Places

May 7, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
The location is awesome! Right outside my door is the local weekend market, great restaurants downtown, and only 15 minute walk to USC campus. I feel very secure in my apartment building and the amenities are pretty good (free gym pass to a small local gym, washer/dryer are rarely busy). Compared to other apartments in the downtown area, the rent is fairly priced. The staff is generally helpful and responsive; however, I have had some challenges, including slow or nonexistent responses to carpet ...
cleaning requests when I first moved in, having to ask for a copy of my lease agreement without being given one upon signing, etc. They do promote some community building activities (i.e. free taco lunch, march madness bracket challenge, etc.); however a lot of the events they hold are during the day when I can't participate because I work a 8-5 job.

A great place to live

April 30, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Capitol Places is a great place to live. It's right on Main St., close to all sorts of restaurants and entertainment, and walking distance to USC. I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a downtown living experience.

Great place to live

April 29, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
I live in the Barringer Building right on Main Street. Everything is great except on the street parking because it is always crowded on Main Street. The apartment offers option to park in the garage but it is not the best option because of its location and safety. Other than that, the apartment is great. Staffs and maintenance are always helpful and friendly. The farmer market right outside is also a plus.
