The Edge @ 401

Lived here for a year now — maintenance is great, they always complete maintenance requests within a day or two. Management is also good, they take their jobs very seriously. There are a few things about the complex itself that I personally have a problem with: 1) the complex is surrounded by frat houses that play deafeningly loud music at obscene hours of the day/night; 2) no dishwasher in the unit; 3) the “all in one” washer/dryer unit doesn’t actually dry clothes, despite maintenance fixes; 4) there is no central AC in the unit, only a wall unit in the living room. So the living room is nice to stay in, but the bedroom gets very hot/stuffy or very cold, depending on the weather. If you’re here for a year or so, it’s a great apartment. If you’re here for 2+ years, you can absolutely fin

I’ve been living at The Edge @ 401 for almost three years now, and it’s been a great experience! The complex has a nice pool and adequate amenities that make it comfortable. The apartments are well-sized, and even though the building is a little older, it’s very well-built. The concrete walls mean I never hear my neighbors, which is a huge plus. Maintenance is always timely and efficient. Over the years, I’ve had my tile replaced and a new AC unit installed, among other repairs. Robert Mosley, the maintenance man, is always kind and attentive, making sure everything is taken care of. The office staff, Melissa and Traci, are also great to work with. They’re friendly and always willing to help. The location is another big advantage. It’s walkable to FSU’s campus, the downtown area, and lo

The leasing and maintenance teams are very nice. They are trying their best to fix the issues and help you at their earliest convenience. There were some pest problems when I moved in last year, but they provided their best solution. Now my place is very clean and comfortable. Thank you Cheyenne, Renee, and Kyle.

The Edge @ 401 is a fantastic place to live, especially for students/people looking for their first apartment! The unit I lived in was recently renovated, so the appliances were brand new, and the entire kitchen was incredible. The way the apartment was laid out made it really easy to have guests over, and I loved being able to converse with friends and cook at the same time. I know a few other reviews have mentioned pest problems, but in my experience, as long as you keep your space tidy/clean and aren't away for a long period of time (bugs in Tallahassee love dormant spaces and will eat anything that's accessible), you shouldn't have any problems! As far as location goes, the apartment complex is a really convenient walk to a lot of FSU buildings, which is great for undergraduates and

I want to share my experience living here to help others make an informed decision. This building only offers 12-month leases, no exceptions. Even if you haven’t lived there for a full 12 months, they still want you to either renew your lease for another year or move out by July 31st. For example, if you rent in November, you must still vacate by July 31st when your lease ends, which feels unfairly strict. For established residents, they won’t allow a month-to-month lease for an extra fee. Instead, they insist you renew for a full year, and if you need to leave early, your only option is to sublease. Subleasing sounds easy in theory, but in reality, it’s very challenging. Many people don’t want to take over a sublease, especially in a building that isn’t well maintained. The hallways are o
