Lived at the Residence for 6 months when I came into Charlotte. The Residence truly is a beautiful place to live. I found the location to be perfect. The amenities are excellent and you have everything that you need just walking distance. Restaurants, grocery store, mall, stores, etc. Once walking into the building for the first time I was treated by Renata and she was just so helpful my entire stay at the Residence. The staff was very professional and friendly. Maintenance was always very quick to help if there were any issues. The apartments are very spacious and comfortable. The other tenants were very friendly. The only thing that I can see others having a hard time would be the noise of the delivery trucks in the early morning during weekdays, which didn't bother me because I saw them as my alarm clock to get up for work so anyways, to me it was a plus
Yes, the rent may be a bit on the high side but personally I believe it's worth it. You get what you pay for, if you want something cheaper that's what you'll get cheaper quality, which when it comes to the Residence that is not the case. I moved to cut time on my commute but strongly considering moving back.
