  I’ve lived at this property for almost a year, and I can honestly say it’s been a great experience. The front office staff is always friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Veronica, the property manager, is always available when needed and goes above and beyond to assist residents. The maintenance team is also outstanding they’re responsive, professional, and complete requests in a timely manner. The amenities are well-maintained, and I’ve had no issues during my time here. Overall, it’s been a great place to live, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a well-managed community.

  We just wanted to say a huge thank you to one of our maintenance technicians, Mike! On Friday night, we noticed the ceiling in our apartment getting wet and some drops of water coming through. We quickly called the emergency maintenance number, and Mike responded and was quick to come help us. This was at around 11:30pm at night, so it was awesome how quickly he responded and how thoroughly he helped us stop the leak from upstairs. It could've got a lot worse if he hadn't been there. We feel a lot better thanks to his help with the ceiling. We really appreciate it!

  Avoid this place at all costs, especially if you're a student or young professional. I've been living here for a year and a half and I can tell Link Calyx is dramatically overpriced compared to other complexes in Chapel Hill. Management insists their rates “match the market,” but that is simply untrue: nothing else in the area comes close to these prices. I ended up moving here only because Grubb Properties bought the Glen Lennox complex and effectively forced tenants out. When it was time to renew my lease in the old cottages (which I also strongly do not recommend), the leasing office ignored my emails, refused to speak to me despite five in-person visits, and then raised rent by 20% to push us toward the new building. At first glance, Link Calyx appears to be a luxury building, but that illusion disappears quickly. The construction is cheap, and while the staff is polite, they are useless when it comes to solving real issues. The former property manager, Sophia Lawson, repeatedly asked tenants for “understanding” because the building was under a contractor warranty, essentially their excuse to avoid responsibility. Emails go unanswered unless they’re passive-aggressive reminders blaming residents or promotions of pointless events to justify the absurd rent. Here are just some of the issues I've personally dealt with: -My bike was stolen from my first-floor patio three months ago. The police requested security footage, but the leasing office never responded, so the investigation stalled. -I refused to store my bike in the bike room because the last bike I stored there was stolen inside the building in 2024, even though the room requires resident access. Management did nothing, their only response was to call the courtesy line and that they were sorry that happened to me. -Courtesy line is useless: Their emergency/courtesy number is a joke—no one answers, and no one follows up on messages. It is functionally not a resource. -Car break-ins: In October 2025, both my car and my neighbor’s car were broken into on the street a few yards away from the (empty) police car they keep permanently parked outside the leasing office for show and under the useless security cameras. This also has happened to other tenants inside the parking garage. - Disgusting neighbour behaviour: A resident upstairs poured used cooking oil off their balcony, covering my entire patio and staining my bike. The office did nothing when I reported it. -Misleading advertising: They mislead future tenants on Apartment List by displaying rental prices ~$700 lower than the real cost. When I asked the leasing manager about this and mentioned reporting it, she asked me not to, offering only vague excuses for the false pricing. - No cellphone reception in the area: when internet is gone, which happens often because the building has a lot of power issues, we get uncommincated despite being less than a mile away from UNC campus. - Power issues: the building has lost power several times in the past year, once for more than 36 hrs. The management blamed Duke Energy but turns out other complexes in the area and the cottages across the street from us never lost power, it was a building issue. This place is not safe, not well-managed, not transparent, and absolutely not worth what they charge. Do yourself a favour and do not move here.
