Resident Reviews

So awesome!!! I love Carolina Square - the pool and fitness center are amazing and the apartments are even better!! Our apartment also has an amazing view of Franklin St. 😍

Aug 9, 2022

Overall, I've had a really positive experience at Carolina Square. I like the location a lot, maintenance is very responsive, and the office staff are very helpful! The property is generally kept quite tidy as well. The units are well appointed and tastefully done. My only relates to the new Luxor Locker policies regarding paying after 3 days of holding a package. As residents, we would obviously prefer packages to be delivered to our doors over the lockers in the first place, so having to pay for something we do not even want is rather tone-deaf by administration. Furthermore, at what we are paying, I should not feel like I'm being nickel-and-dimed. Beyond this, I'm going into my 3rd year at the property and have thoroughly enjoyed my time here.

Friendly staff & great environment! My move-in process was so smooth and made me extremely excited for my next year living in Carolina Square!

Aug 2, 2022

So far so good. I don’t like that the front door is open sometimes and you can enter the building without having to scan your key. My favorite thing is the sky tower.

Aug 2, 2022

great communication and i really like my apartment. i think there is a good sense of community and the common spaces are great. would definitely recommend

Aug 1, 2022

The apartment is clean and spacious and I love the huge windows in the living room. I enjoy the updated kitchen appliances, it makes the place feel modern and clean.

Jul 31, 2022

It's been great being a resident of carolina square so far! Maintenance has been really good in particular. The request was put in and the item was fixed the next day!

Jul 28, 2022

Hello I'm a new resident here and I haven't officially live in my apartment. But the staff here are really nice, I'm so exciting for my upcoming move-in and I hope everything for the best!

Jul 26, 2022

So far staying at Carolina Square has been great. My apartment did have a few maintenance issues that I had to request get fixed, but other than that my place is very nice.

Jul 26, 2022

I've loved living in C-Square. I've lived here for about 2 weeks now and have had minimal complaints. Some issues with the parking deck but that's it!!!

Jul 17, 2022

I love the community at Carolina Square because the residents I’ve met so far have been really friendly and easy to talk to. I have been wanting to live in this complex for years and it actually exceeds my expectations for apartment living.

Jul 10, 2022

My resident experience so far has been great! I can’t wait to keep using rewards. I have enjoyed Carolina square so far since my lease started.

Jul 5, 2022

I had a positive experience living at Carolina Square and made many new friends in the building. Management was very responsive to any of my needs.

Jul 5, 2022

Carolina Square is a beautiful and spacious apartment complex located on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill, NC. I chose to live in C-Square because of the wonderful location and the great amenities!

Jun 30, 2022

The workers are super sweet and are always willing to help and create such a comfortable environment. Each time I need help with more of the substantive side of moving into an apartment they are always there for each step.

Jun 26, 2022

I have enjoyed my time at Carolina Square. For such a great location and amenities, the price is certainly worth it. Obviously, a high priced apartment but probably the most bang for your buck in Chapel Hill.

Jun 20, 2022

Just moved in. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. The building is very well organized! I have enjoyed everything thus far! Can't wait to check out the pool.

Jun 15, 2022

Fantastic!!! Adrienne & Emily are so sweet and kind and made moving in feel like a breeze! The amenities were incredible and my neighbors seem friendly. Can’t wait to live here :)

Jun 15, 2022

Amazing location & amenities! Right above target, close to campus, with an amazing rooftop/pool and gym. The best place to live as a student in Chapel Hill.

Jun 14, 2022

Everyone is very friendly and extremely helpful. As I was moving in, one of the maintenance workers asked how my move-in was going, to which I expressed concern about how t dispose of all of my cardboard boxes. He then showed me the best elevator to take and how to access the trash chutes.

Jun 13, 2022

all the things are great instead of the noise from the pool. Sometimes, in the pool will be various noises both from someone playing music or talk so loud.

May 18, 2022

Very good living experience. Staffs are nice. Environment is comfortable. The only problem is that during final week, there is no paper in the printer so i can't print my review materials.

May 6, 2022

Best building, best location, best everything, imagine living in a hotel. Very convenient location for class as well as for food and drinks. Bars literally across the street, food everywhere, target right below, gym.

May 5, 2022

The resident experience at C Square has been great. There are always events & rewards for the students and others who live in the building, and the staff is always friendly and willing to help!

Apr 28, 2022

Disappointed that we pay over $1k and can’t even have access to the pool— if people are disrespectful take it up with those individuals not the whole complex

Apr 28, 2022

Lovely apartment, super convenient for UNC students. But sometimes the neighbors are noisy. And sometimes, there will be people sneaking into the pool at midnight.

Apr 22, 2022

The apartment is so nice and the location is perfect for UNC students! Having a pool and gym is also extremely beneficial for residents and guests alike.

Apr 22, 2022

Carolina square apartments are really nice and it’s fun to see so many students living here. It offers a great chance for us to meet new people.

Apr 18, 2022

I love living here! It is the perfect location and the rooms are very nice. I have lived in three different apartments here and I have no complaints for any of them.

Apr 10, 2022

Rent hikes up a little bit, but it's generally good staying here. Good location, good walkability and proximity is the highlight of this property.

Mar 29, 2022

C Square is a really convenient neighborhood for UNC students, especially we have Target right at downstairs and nearby Franklin st. Highly recommended!

Mar 21, 2022

Great location and amenities! I look forward to using the pool when it opens. The gym is nice and staff is welcoming. I have enjoyed my year here.

Mar 14, 2022

Amazing everything, i love the location and the ammenties that come with the apartment and building. The rooms are big and everything is very put together

Mar 14, 2022

I love living here at Carolina square. They treat us so well and it is nice living around other students. So close to campus and such beautiful apartments!

Mar 3, 2022

Great location, however can be loud due to Franklin street. Security is good. Trash service is convenient. Apartment itself is up to date. Great place to live.

Mar 1, 2022

My experience has been positive overall. Maintenance requests are fulfilled quickly and the facilities are looked after well. The rent hikes for the '22-'23 lease cycle were disappointing, but staff was great about answering questions.

Feb 22, 2022

Staff is always kind and accomodating. The building is well-secured, clean, and the right temperature. I love seeing all the dogs in the elevator

Feb 22, 2022

First, the staff is amazing! Second, the atmosphere is fantastic! Living at C-Square is the best. No complaints at all! Everything is kept well clean and presentable! By far the best apartment complex!

Feb 21, 2022

Great apartments. I love living on Franklin street it is awesome. Good maintenance team. Leasing office is helpful but sometimes dismisses you.

Feb 21, 2022

Great location. Next to all restaurants in downtown. Walking distance to UNC and Med school. Well maintained premises. Public transport and Targer at doorstep.

Feb 21, 2022

Staff has been so friendly with working with me as my crazy study schedule! They will go out of their way to make sure they can help out as much as they can!

Feb 21, 2022

very good for this week! everything looks fine. But it smells bad when painting the wall. hope there will put a fan in the hallway. This will make the hallway smells better. Nice paint! thank you for renewing the wall.

Feb 9, 2022

Location is great and the building is very clean. I have no problems with maintenance and the front office is very sweet! I will say the random charges though are out of pocket.

Feb 9, 2022

We love it here! The staff is super friendly and helpful. The Location can't be beat. We love living in Carolina Square. Thanks for everything!

Feb 9, 2022

Staff is always friendly and provides lots of activities for residents to participate in (and consumer :) ) The amenities are nice and overall it's a great place to live.

Jan 28, 2022

The location and amenities at Carolina Square are great! If you’re a student at UNC, it’s a very short and convenient walk to campus! The Target is right beneath you too!

Jan 21, 2022

Issues mostly with people not wearing masks around the building. Maybe need signs up requesting that people wear masks as that is still the CDC guidance for vaccinated people.

Jan 19, 2022

Wonderful experience, great location, helpful staff, nice environment. The Carolina Square apartment community is so good! Happy that I made this decision!

Jan 15, 2022

It's very convenient to live here, but the wall is thin that we can hear neighbors' music all the time. Target is downstairs, not even 5 minutes away, Locker is great for receiving packages, and unlimited coffee in the leasing office.

Jan 14, 2022

Its been really great to live here in carolina square. I enjoy hanging out iwth friends. Also, csquare is close to everywhere which provides convenience to access everything.

Jan 13, 2022

This is my 2nd year living here and I love it. Such a nice community and amazing location! My experience here has been great so far and the staff is always great.

Jan 9, 2022

My experience at CSquare has been really good. Love the location especially now that Roots is downstairs! Great food and easy access to everything I need around me.

Dec 29, 2021

My expirience has been very good. I have not lived here yet, but I have thoroughly enjoyed the interactive programs and am very excited to live there in the upcoming year.

Dec 20, 2021

I really enjoy the amenities and the events for finals. I wish we were able to have more outside friends with us in the amenity spaces, particularly when we are the only ones there.

Dec 6, 2021

We leased this apartment for our daughters senior year and she has loved it so far. The location is prime and all the amenities are great. Wish for the price that parking was included!

Dec 6, 2021

I've had a great year so far...Great location, nice gym and pool. Carolina Square makes it convenient to get to campus and the hospital. It is also close to bars and restaurants.

Nov 21, 2021

I love carolina square. Amazing location, nice apartments, great amenities. I’m definitely renewing and I recommend it to anyone else looking for a place to live.

Nov 21, 2021

Smooth leasing process. Great location and nice amenities. Close to major restaurants. Easy access to all bus routes. Ideal for students / employees without family at UNC.

Nov 20, 2021

The location is great and very convenient. Easy walk to campus and there are a plethora of restaurants nearby. Additionally, having a target below the building is a great asset.

Nov 11, 2021

A very nice place to live with excellent staff who care about the residents. There are lots of community events and free food! I love Carolina Sqaure!

Nov 4, 2021

I absolutely love living at Carolina Square! It is the perfect location and super close to everything. All of the great restaurants and bars are right nearby while just being a short walk to campus. I also love that they are a pet-friendly community.

Oct 27, 2021

I have loved living here. It is very modern and the amenities are all great. Additionally, the staff makes sure all the residents feel appreciated and have extra things for them.

Oct 27, 2021

I have definitely enjoyed living in Carolina Square. The location is great and I enjoy the events and amenities provided from living here. If I could change anything it would be the maintenance. The department is very slow to fix problems around the complex and there is always something off. Otherwise a great place to live

Oct 26, 2021

great amenities, great place. Gets cleaned often. The neighbors are nice. People are friendly sometimes noisy but that's what college apartments are.

Oct 18, 2021

I enjoy the living space and everything is very pretty. Love Carolina square and highly recommend it. The location for the campus is unbeatable!

Oct 17, 2021

I really like my apartment! It’s super convenient since we live right on Franklin Street, and the views are gorgeous! All the amenities are extremely helpful as well.

Oct 15, 2021

Overall good, very expensive to not come furnished and minor appliance issues. It is in a great location and right in the center of downtown chapel hill

Oct 10, 2021

I have absolutely loved living here because of the location, amenities, and the quality of the rooms. I have really appreciated the maintenance staff this year because they are extremely quick to get any requests done and are very professional!

Oct 2, 2021

Everything is awesome! Everyone is super friendly! The staff always has a smile anytime I see them! Everything is always kept super clean and the air always smells fresh!

Sep 30, 2021

Everything is nice, but the wall is too thin, I can hear upstairs and the neighbor's music or conversation. And every weekend the hallway is dirty because party or people getting drunk. But other stuff is nice, gym, package locker, and coffee.

Sep 30, 2021

It has been great! I like how nice the staff is and how great the location of Carolina sqaure is. I also love how nice the apartment is compared to my last!

Sep 16, 2021

Only issue I have is that sometimes issues like a strange smell on hall or broken door can take more than 3 or so days to get fixed, which can be very inconvenient sometimes

Sep 14, 2021

I have loved living here so far. It’s close to campus, as well as various restaurants on Franklin Street. It also provides a good amount of amenities to students such as a quality gym, lounge, and pool area.

Aug 31, 2021

I love the area! It is a super quick walk to campus and a bunch of restaurants and stores! The view is very pretty and the amenities are great!

Aug 31, 2021

Love that the location is so close to the college and all the things on Franklin St. The only negative is I feel for the monthly rent we pay parking should be included.

Aug 31, 2021

Despite the relatively high cost, I would love living in Carolina Square for the location and the restaurants around. The down side would be the untimely reply from the management during the pandemic.

Aug 30, 2021

Ive been living on campus for my first and second year in college. I am always thinking that dorm is a place that I could make friends with others. But, living off campus could also helps it.

Aug 29, 2021

Could be noisy sometimes but overall great. The facilities are nice, and the location is the main reason I chose to live here cause it literally take 10 mins walk to campus.

Aug 21, 2021

Awesome stay so far! Everyone is so nice and all of the amenities are amazing. This place already feels like home and I can’t wait to live here all year long!

Aug 18, 2021

I detailed this on the other experience rating. Everything is great other than issues that we're already there when we moved in and maintenance not doing much about it.

Aug 16, 2021

I’ve loved living here so far! Almost no issues with our unit and so close to everything which I love. I’m also getting to live with my very close friends but still have space to myself!

Aug 10, 2021

The location is amazing! The staff have been so friendly and helpful during move in. They have also answered all my questions that I’ve had.

Aug 10, 2021

Loving everything about csquare so far (although I wish the door lock wasn't broken when I moved in but it was fixed very quickly). Package delivery, move-in, grocery shopping... all feels much more seamless than it has in past homes I've lived in. Overall improved my quality of life significantly!

Aug 7, 2021

The community and apartment has been great so far. The apartment was a little dirty and broken down when moving in and the staff has yet to fix it, but the apartment seems nice.

Aug 6, 2021

Nice apartment. Leasing staff is good too. The location is great. A little bit expensive. Nice community amenities. Good people live here. Good security.

Aug 6, 2021

I have had an amazing experience so far. Moving in went smoothly and my apartment was very clean. The only issue I have had is that my fire alarm went off randomly.. hope it does not happen again.

Aug 6, 2021

It is an awesome central location with great amenities. There are tons of stuff close by to walk to. The people are very kind and made moving in very easy.

Aug 5, 2021

Love the pool and the group fitness stuff and the rooms are very nice. I also like the skydeck because it is so nice to tan on. I hooe the walls are sound proof! And i move in on saturday yay hehe

Jul 27, 2021

Great service. Nice facilities and maintenance. Just a little area of improvement for now. Emails sent to the apartment are sometimes not responded to.

Jul 27, 2021

Carolina Square is a great location with updated living spaces and very nice amenities. The convenience of stores and buses nearby is unbeatable. It has a great sense of community.

Jul 21, 2021

I love my new apartment! There’s a lot of space, it’s so modern, and feeling is all around great. I just wish I had a little more help during move in (ex. being told where the amenities are) and I wish the dog run was fixed, but it’s been broken since I toured the apartment over a month ago

Jul 21, 2021

The apartment is so nice and the amenities are great. I love the pool and the kitchen spaces in the apartments. My roommate and I are glad that we chose to live here because of the close proximity to franklin street.

Jul 16, 2021

I just moved in & I’m already loving the sense of community at Carolina Square! The amenities are amazing, and the apartment space is perfect.

Jul 14, 2021

I really like the layout and furnishings of the apartment that we were provided with for this next year. I’m super excited to see how everything goes!

Jul 9, 2021

Location is great! Apartments are so nice and definitely worth the price. The staff made signing and finding roommates so easy. Love the community events!

Jul 1, 2021

Just moved in and it's been great and welcoming so far! Move in was not too hard. Got confusing at times, but there was help along the way to make it easier and efficient.

Jun 25, 2021

Everything is great already! The staff is extremely nice, the community is extraordinary and everything feels very homey! The setting of Carolina Square is the best!

Jun 25, 2021

Carolina Square is an incredibly convenient spot with great amenities! The apartments are really spacious and the kitchens, in particular, are very beautiful. My only issues here have been with management, but it is a small price to pay for a beautiful home.

Jun 18, 2021

I love the apartment and location. We did have a lot of problems with the technology used by Carolina Square and communicating with the staff.

Jun 14, 2021

Great amenities, best location in chapel hill, and very high quality apartments. The walk to both Franklin street and UNC campus are so easy and there is always something fun happening right outside your window!

May 27, 2021

This apartment is very nice and is a wonderful community. I have loved my time here and everyone that is around. I would recomend this place to everyone

May 20, 2021

I've really enjoyed living in Carolina Square! Our apartment is roomy and has great appliances. The building is always clean and I feel really safe with the on-site security and FOB-locked doors, elevators, amenities, and apartments.

May 13, 2021

Carolina Square has very nice facilities and amenities. Sometimes it can be loud, and maintenance problems are common. Overall, it is nice to be a resident here.

Apr 17, 2021

I love all the amenities that Carolina Square offers. The staff is phenomenal, and the apartment complex is very well taken care of. Truly a great location, community & awesome living experience!

Apr 9, 2021

Living space, amenities, and location are all ideal and critical to a comprehensive college experience, especially considering the difficulties posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mar 22, 2021

Great experience working with Christyn and Nyree. Great people to work with, can't thank them enough. Looking forward to my daughter having a great next 2.5 yrs there.

Mar 16, 2021

Overall, it’s been great. The apartment is nice and in the perfect location. The staff always has fun events for us and are usually free! Sometimes, communication with the staff is challenging, but it’s easiest to just go down to the office and speak to them because calling and emailing can take a while.

Feb 10, 2021

Love living here for the location, nice interior, and pool, but mail and maintenance have not been quite up to par. The mail situation has gotten better recently, though

Feb 10, 2021

The lease and maintenance team work extremely hard and always are on time and on top of it. Best location in chapel hill with really nice apartments. Especially the ones with balconies

Feb 10, 2021

Still see people not wearing masks around the building, not sure what to do about that. I think they believe it is fine to not wear one when walking around short distances inside, but it isn't safe.

Feb 3, 2021

Carolina Square is an awesome place to live! You can't beat the location. The amenities are awesome, and the staff is very kind! Carolina Square is the best place in Chapel Hill!

Jan 14, 2021

I love the apartment complex here it has been a very nice experience and the amenities that come with it are great! The only thing I wish was improved is communication of mail orders

Jan 14, 2021

Carolina square apartments are amazing! My apartment is so cute and homey. The staff is super welcoming and helpful. Love the community here.

Jan 14, 2021

Great spot! Love living here. Extremely convenient location. The front desk staff are amazing. The building is very secure. The gym and common rooms are great!

Jan 1, 2021

Overall, my resident experience at Carolina Square has been great! The trash valent hours are a bit inconvenient and it's very difficult to recycle... I wish we received a separate bin for recycling and didn't have to put it in a trash bag.

Dec 8, 2020

I love living here; it's a great experience. The staff is excellent, everything is clean, and I'm enjoying the amenities while thriving in my personal life here!

Dec 7, 2020

I have had a great experience living here- the location is the best and the amenities are amazing. My only complaint is that sometimes there are maintenance issues that are left undone. I would recommend living here.

Nov 20, 2020

Carolina Square has been a great place to live. The location is convenient, and I love all of the community events the management holds. The apartments are very nice and a great place to live in Chapel Hill.

Nov 13, 2020

Lots of loud noise at night which makes it hard to sleep. And trash piles up in hallway a lot so that sometimes makes the hallway smell awful and I don’t like that

Nov 13, 2020

Living in Carolina Square has been a great experience so far this semester, given the great community, amenities, activities, and the living space.

Nov 12, 2020

Overall c square has been great except for the packages. It is so inconsistent whether your package will be delivered to the correct location or not and that is really disappointing

Nov 12, 2020

I love it here! The staff is very nice and always say hi to me. I love the amenities such as the pool, gym, and study rooms. I am really excited to live here again in the Spring!

Nov 12, 2020

Best place I have ever lived while in college! The amenities are great, location is the best ever, and the staff is awesome. The only thing I don’t love is the trash system.

Oct 15, 2020

I have had a great experience so far. The friendly staff are very helpful and accommodating. Apartment is laid out well with nice appliances. Very clean with great amenities.

Sep 28, 2020

I recently moved into Carolina Square from off-campus housing, and I can truly say my move-in experience was exceptional. The leasing office handled everything, and all the stress of moving was minimized by the friendly atmosphere and greeting I received. Since moving in, my questions and requests have been addressed quickly, and I have had absolutely no issues with my apartment. My unit, and the apartment complex at large, is extremely clean and quiet, and the amenities are amazing. I can’t wait to spend my senior year with such a wonderful community!

Aug 29, 2020

A main issue currently is that there are still quite few people in the community not wearing masks in the halls, elevators, and other public spaces.

Aug 27, 2020

So far, living at Carolina Square has been a great experience. The location is unmatched and the units are very nice. Maintenance is very prompt when there is an issue as well. I have not been able to use most of the amenities yet due to covid 19, but I’m sure they’ll be great when they open!

Aug 20, 2020

Although it’s been crazy adjusting to my new living experience during Coronavirus, I have really enjoyed Carolina Square so far! I love the amenities (excited for the gym to reopen), the package delivery system is great, the buildings are always clean, and I feel so safe with the buildings’ FOB locks and the security guard around.

Aug 17, 2020

Love living here! Wish that noise complaints actually did something though, but other than that, it’s great! Can’t wait to continue living here

Aug 15, 2020

The location, the service, and the amenities make it the optimal stay for any Carolina Student. I recommend Carolina Square to anyone looking for a new place to live

Aug 15, 2020

Carolina Square is a fantastic apartment complex. I moved in this year, and I absolutely love living in my new apartment with my best friends.

Aug 12, 2020

Great place to live, a bit pricy but that is common around the area. Nice amenities and a lot of students in the building so there is a good social scene.

Aug 11, 2020

Excellent leasing office employees and amazing facilities. There are prompt responses by maintenance should any issues arise, and the facility is very secure.

Aug 10, 2020

Great amenities and community. Love the amount of security. Gets loud on weekends. Trash piles up at the trash shoot and people leave the pool messy

Aug 8, 2020

I love the apartment. I am looking forward to the pool and gym being open. My move-in was pretty smooth and the repairman came within a few days to fix some of the initial issues which was good.

Aug 6, 2020

It has been a great experience. It makes it easy to stay connected with friends and meet new people. Everything is clean and the location is great.

Jul 26, 2020

Very nice apartment complex, have enjoyed living here so far. Pool is nice and lots of amenities included, but can be loud and wish the gym was open.

Jul 16, 2020

The management and staff at Carolina Square do an excellent job making the residents comfortable. I would recommend Carolina Square to anyone looking for upscale apartment living.

Jul 16, 2020

Stop raising prices so much for current residents. Its been about 10% increases every year. Residents are forced out of their homes to make room for new tenants who will pay anything

Jul 12, 2020

Carolina Square is the best place to live in Chapel Hill! It's fun living in the same building as other students and I absolutely love the amenities.

Jul 1, 2020

Amazing place to live! You cannot beat the location and the amenities. You can walk right onto Franklin Street and to campus within 10 minutes and the apartments are beautiful!

May 30, 2020

I'm happy with most things. I wish there was a way to limit the noise I hear from neighbors, etc. If there was an easier way to report noise, it might be easier.

Apr 30, 2020

I love Caroline Square. It’s in a great location, the amenities are fantastic, and it’s a really nicely finished place. The gym is excellent.

Feb 11, 2020
