May 15, 2025My resident experience has been great overall. The community is well-maintained, the neighbors are friendly, and the location is very convenient. The only minor downside is the train noise, which can be noticeable at times, but it hasn’t significantly affected my overall enjoyment of living here.Property Manager Responded

May 8, 2025We absolutely love living at the Francis! We have been here for a few years and couldn’t think of a better place. We would love for the outlets in the parking garage to function but know that is a different property management company not fixing the issue.Property Manager Responded

April 28, 2025Twelve 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 Responded
May 3, 2025Thanks 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!

April 16, 2025I 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!!!Property Manager Responded

April 15, 2025Unfortunately, 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.Property Manager Responded
May 1, 2025Thank you for your review and feed back! We want everyone to enjoy life at The Francis so if there is anything extra we might be able to do please let us know! We do have set hours in respect for the homes located next the amenity areas, however the gym is 24-hours for convenience! if you need anything please don't hesitate to reach out!
