The building itself has a fantastic location, very kind staff, and a cool vibe to it. However, the passenger elevator is a SERIOUS issue. I moved in in December (it's currently August) and it's been down a good 75% of the time. I live on the 7th floor and have some pretty serious knee issues. It'll be down for 2 months, then be working for 2 days to a week, then be down for another 2 months. Although I truly enjoy the manager, freight elevator operator, and maintence men (who are kind people), I just feel like there is more that can be done besides these constant bandaid fixes. Clearly there's a larger issue if the thing won't stay running for more than a week.

This place is where people go when they need somewhere to move in fast. WAY OVERPRICED, but they’ll move you in quick. Still, after living here for nearly 2 years, I’ve enjoyed my time.However, the elevator is CONSTANTLY breaking. If you live on a higher floor or just want to do your laundry, that gets annoying fast.Almost all the apartments have no living room/central space & really small kitchens. Just keep that in mind. It’s hard to have friends over at times. AND NO PARKING!A lot of places have problems with bugs, so make sure your roomate is a clean person!It’s seriously getting way overpriced for no amenities! There are places with so much more to offer at a much lower price.Maintenance and Alan (who runs the freight elevator) are amazing. Just my honest opinion of living here!

Hostile, sarcastic staff.I had a sewage leak down the center of my bedroom ceiling they did not fix.The water heater was broken for a few months straight.Trapped twice in the elevator, once for 40 minutes.They attempted to charge me thousands of dollars on-top of my deposit upon moving out, $100 for “dirty bathroom mirror” etcI’ve lived in about 9 apartments and this is the only place that has given me gruff, been the material for all of my nightmares.When you respond to this, I want to reiterate to you and everyone else that youre not to be trusted, you need repercussions for what you’ve done. I hope your landlords are as bad to you as you’ve been to so many(I reviewed the correct property, 900 w Franklin, Richmond Virginia. Chesterfield apartments managed by Landmark)

I had my apartment tour yesterday and this place is so cute! The property manger, Karen, has been nothing but respectful and so so SO sweet oh my goodness. She is a person who does not like to beat around the bush or try to sell you something just to make money. She is honest, upfront (in a respectful way), and transparent. I’ve heard from a lot of upper class-men (I’m a freshmen) that this place is not good and only good for the price. Well in my opinion, this place has character! I like that old historic Richmond look. Also the fact it’s right in the middle of everything….. amazing! Not going to lie even if I don’t live here I’m still going to go to Karen’s office cause I love talking to her ?

Not a bad place if you excuse an elevator that's been down for a month, 2 out of 5 washers (for the whole building) being out of order, and laundry payment that works only 1/3 of the time. I don't mind paying for laundry but when I have to reinsert my card 4 times and wait 2 mins each time for it to authorize it can get very frustrating. As for the elevator, management is trying and offers trash pick up frequently. Still is horrible hiking up and down more than 4 flights every night. Will update my review when this place proves itself worthy of a better rating.

I recently moved to Chesterfield Apartment. I want to say thank you to Property Manager Karen. She is amazing. Maintenance staffs are beyond my expectation, too. Everyone from Chesterfield Apartment has been professional and are doing outstanding work. Thank you!
Nina Gregory
Apartments are great and all of the staff is very friendly and helpful! Great location for VCU students.

Perfect location for anyone attending VCU as you can walk to the main library in 3 minutes. Great apartment with stunning views. Wonderful management that really cares about it's tenants. My son stayed there for a year before the pandemic and is returning after a year of absence to resume his studies. He could not be happier!

I cannot speak to the actual living experience of the Chesterfield Apartments as I have just signed my lease. However, I want to say that the communication has been amazing thus far. Dillon Holdridge helped me out via phone many times and was able to enthusiastically answer all my questions. I definitely feel like my time with the Chesterfield Apartments are off to a good start thanks to him.

Great move-in experience. Karen and Dillon were extremely courteous and patient in getting me get settled. The apartment room had everything I needed.
This is the worst place ever! The place didn’t have any smoke alarms! Didn’t know until there was an incident in another apartment. The refrig and stove are from the 1970’s! The pics on line are NOT an accurate depiction of the apartments! The elevator is constantly getting stuck! They will find any reason to obtain more money too! Horrible!
Dylan Eubanks
Great location good prices and very helpful staff. I wish my availability would have worked for me to love here but a great experience while touring, Dillon was very helpful in particular.
James Eubanks
Great staff, very helpful during the process of looking for a place to live. Wish it would have worked out for me time wise.
Avery Johnson
I absolutely love these apartments! The style is perfect for people who don't want to live in artificial looking, dorm style apartments. One of the highlights is the natural light and window size. The location is perfect for VCU students and the staff is so kind! Definitely check these apartments out.
