  It has been about ten months since moving in last summer and I cannot say enough how much we appreciate the level of professionalism and enthusiasm the management and maintenance teams have for the residents and the whole building. From the start, Betsy and Alexis have made us feel right at home. We toured every residential 'tower' in the city and from the moment we stepped into the lobby, it was serendipity. Rob and Ty have also been nothing short of amazing and professional. The building itself is well taken care of, we love our unit and the tall ceilings as well as the resident lounge and gym! The rooftop terrace also provides some of the best views in the city! This building has also provided us with a sense of community which is one of the bigger factors for us in moving into the Central Business District. I can't recommend the Renaissance enough!

  By far one of the best places to live in downtown Cincinnati! Great units, great community, great views, and great building management. Betsy, Alexis, and the maintenance team are top notch. We have always felt that we could go to them with anything and it will be solved within minutes! If you're contemplating where to live, definitely recommend Renaissance.

  Great place to live. The location is prime time and walking distance to different local events, bars, sports stadiums, and restaurants in the city. The leasing professionals go above and beyond, and have your best interest at heart.

  I lived in a two bedroom in the Renaissance for one year while starting my first job in Cincinnati, and now I am happy to say that I am moving back, after a year and a half away-- this time into a one bedroom! My roommate and I absolutely loved our time here-- we enjoyed cooking dinner and bringing it to the rooftop for sunset dinners, we always worked out in the gym on Bachelor nights so that we could watch cable (we never bothered to connect our apartment because we usually stream), even the party room has a fancy coffee machine, and it was our Sunday morning routine to make lattes there. The garage has shopping carts that you can use to bring up groceries, which was a life saver during COVID, when we took giant stock-up trips and could never have carried it all. The location is perfect-- walking distance from both of our downtown jobs, the downtown Kroger, Coffee Emporium, Mt Adams (via the bridge over the freeway), the library, and OTR. I think if you want to live downtown, 8th street is the perfect compromise between the Banks and OTR. And, the Renaissance was the perfect apartment, with large windows and spacious rooms. My friends actually jokingly made fun of me, because my bedroom looked so empty, as I had barely any furniture to fill the massive room. I was sad when my roommate's job moved her to Boston, and I moved into Academy on Fourth in Newport, KY, with another friend. Although Academy on Fourth was much newer (I had a room that was not updated in the Renaissance), I found the experience subpar, when compared to my time at the Renaissance. Specifically, I realized how good the soundproofing in the Renaissance had been, when I started hearing the frat parties and footsteps from my Newport neighbors. I'm looking forward to returning to the Renaissance into a new one bedroom, and thank you to Betsy for her help during this process. The only feedback I have for the Renaissance is that I would love for them to get a stair master in the gym (but maybe this has been added since my exit?). Additionally, the guest parking can be a challenge, as there are only a few available spots during certain times of the day.
