Comprehensive Review of the Edison Coming up on the end of my time at the Edison I thought I'd detail the best and worst parts of living in this building in hopes it will help those looking for a Richmond apartment. Overall my experience has been quite positive. The best: 1. The actual apartment- I absolutely LOVE my apartment itself. The layout is unique (I have a loft bedroom), with high ceilings, lovely features like granite countertops, floor to ceiling windows, and a spacious living area. 2. The amenities- the gym, yoga... read more

Great place to live! I live at The Edison for one year and have nothing, but positive experience! Very quiet and well maintained building. The neighbors are very respectful, which makes this place very peaceful. The location is amazing as well and close to everything you need! Would stay longer, but have to move after graduation. Best of luck! 

Business response:

Thank you so much for this shining review. We appreciate you sharing your experience. We wish you the best and congratulations on graduating!

Author: Medical Student who Lived here for 4 years. I LOVED IT Authors info: Medical Student. Lived at The Edison Apartments from 2015-2019. I left the facility because I had to relocate to a different state for residency training. Facility: If I didn't have to relocate I would have continued to live at this place. I lived in the tower. My neighbors were other young health care professionals, which made for a great environment. There were plenty of study spaces available. The place was quiet, very clean, very safe (never had... read more

Terrible Extremely terrible service. Construction all through the stay at home/work from order. They don't care at all about customer satisfaction or being accommodating to residents. They enter your apartment without notice whenever they want. Terrible staff now.

Cheaters Do not go for this apartment at any cost. They just want to extract money from you. One of the worst services you can imagine. They did not even show me an apartment and started bothering me with phone calls to pay for processing charges. They are more pressed on dollars then actually focusing on ensuring loyalty of customers through good service.

Pretty Disappointed so far... but this is the honest detailed truth. POSITIVES" 1. Location- I walk to work and there are so many restaurants and activities to do all within walking distance 2. Parking Garage (see below few places with downtown living parking ($100 a month) 3. Apartment design is unique 4. If you're in the Annex building (VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU SIGN A LEASE!!) you might be able to get a patio area outside -I have one for my dogs 5. 24 hour gym, movie theatre, club room, trash chute, conference roo... read more

The sooner the lease is up, the better Apartment is nice, but not the best quality and certainly over-priced, very expensive in comparison to other apartments nearby. There does not seem to be any equity in what is charged. Trash shutes and patios have been closed for months, due to renovation. No end in sight. Multiple management teams within a year. There seems to be no organization or communication between on-site manager and higher management. Had some issues with vandalism, more security cameras should be installed in t... read more

Can't wait to move out! Few pros, many cons. Pros: Neighborhood: restaurants, cafés, small shops, banks, parks are in walking distance. Good location for public transportation. Amenities: great gym, movie theater and bike storage/repair room, club room. Apartment: our 2 bedroom/2 bathroom flat is very spacious. Huge living room with hardwood floors, bedrooms are big enough for king size beds, a lot of storage space and big walk-in closets. Kitchen appliances in good condition, washer/dryer work well. No issues with plumbing ... read more
