Very convenient for access to Franklin. Several other MBAs also living nearby.

Great location doesn't make up for everything

On the positive side the location is ideal and the pool is great. The positives stop there. Management is unbelievably horrific. Where this building not in an ideal location in a college town every resident would have left given how generally incompetent and impolite the management team is. The building was poorly constructed and finishes like the floor move, lights uneven, elevator frequently broken, trash chute blocked, et cetera. I am glad I rented here for the location, but will be so happy to never deal with the staff or management company again.

Nice location of Franklin with nice and new units. There are a good number of undergrads in the complex, but it is not unbearable. Management is far from great, and it can be frustrating to deal with them like most other apartments.

Worth it for me to live right on Franklin Street in the heart of Chapel Hill.
7-9 minute drive to KFBS.

Apartment right on Franklin

Everything is good. Walls are thin that’s it. Facility is really good and perfectly located

Great units with nice finishes. Really good gym. Perfect location. Parking is very expensive. Management is subpar.

Hard to get a better location and better amenities. Large, new gym that I've never seen more than 7 or 8 people in at a given time (usually just 1 or 2), and walking distance to Bob's, He's Not, and all other restaurants and amenities on Franklin. Living on top of a Target/Starbucks in addition to your gym and pool is obviously a wealth of convenience.

It's expensive though. On top of what's already one of the highest rents in Chapel Hill, you also have to pay for parking (~$125/mo) and your own water, electric, and cable/internet. Not to mention application fees and possibly move-in and amenity fees.

Great location

Carolina Square is a great choice for its location next to Franklin street. It is very easy to hang out with 1st year classmates in this location. It also isn't too inconvenient to get to school by bike or walking. Good amount of people here that have a car so carpooling has not been an issue either. Downside is the property management company running this operation is utterly incompetent. I mean utterly. While they have been good of fixing maintenance issues, the staff has totally messed up the parking situation for residents, often has to do lots of work on the building as they missed steps in the original build process, losses residents mail extremely frequently, et cetera. They are the worst management company I have ever dealt with, but that being said, the location is so great we are all staying here second year.
