Student friendly living !! Middle of downtown and all inclusive . Great for your first apartment if you’re a student at VCU or if it’s your first apartment starting out
Property Manager Responded: Thank you for the kind words about The Towers on Franklin — we’re so glad you love our downtown, all-inclusive living and that we’re a great fit for students at Virginia Commonwealth University and first-time renters starting out!

Not a very good overall experience, however, some issues have been discussed. Would consider living there again as it seems new management does communicate unlike the previous management team.
Property Manager Responded: Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We’re happy to hear that our new management team has been able to provide the communication and experience you were looking for. Your consideration of living here again means a lot, and we’d be glad to welcome you back anytime. If you ever have additional feedback or need assistance, we’re here to help.

Lived here for a while , great place to rent for students who need affordable to live. All utilities are included and that’s a huge plus considering the cost of rent these days
Property Manager Responded: Hi there! We are grateful and appreciate the time you took to leave your review. We are glad that you are enjoying your stay with us. We look forward to serving you many more times in the future!

I haven't lived here in almost a year. When I was there I had nothing but troubles. New management now. I can't speak for them. Hopefully they're able to turn the place around.
