We reviewed apartment homes for about 8 weeks before selecting 21 eleven as our home. We personally shopped more than 30 apartments in the inner loop and are confident we made an excellent choice! We made our decision based on the location, property appeal, quality of amenities, professional customer service, and overall value. Located in the heart of it all, we are minutes from Montrose, Downtown, The Medical Center, and The Galleria. While we are overwhelmed with plenty of restaurants, shopping, and nightlife, we enjoy an affordable Uber ride home at the end of a great night of entertainment. With a beautiful view of the gorgeous roof top pool, we are feet away from the best apartment gym you will find in apartment living. Two floors of weight and cardio equipment available 24 hours and the staff always keep this place clean! By the way we love our Starbucks machine in the beautiful commons area and all the nice residence we meet when stopping in. I cannot say enough about the amazing staff here at 21 Eleven! They are always ready to assist us with a smile and make me feel like a VIP resident every time! The overall value for 21 Eleven is amazing! CM

My husband and I moved into 21 Eleven from out of state in August. Having never lived in an apartment community (we always owned single family residences), we don't have much to compare to, but we don't have much to complain about either! The location is amazing. The tagline of the complex is "where montrose meets river oaks" but officially we are in the Upper Kirby area. It is FANTASTIC. You are close to downtown, the Galleria, The Heights, Medical Center/Museum District, absolutely everything. My husband works at IAH, and it's a very easy reverse commute considering we are so close to 59. We wanted a location where we can get out and walk to grocery, bars, shopping and dining, and this is it. We also walk to the bars in Montrose (it's a hike at just over a mile, but we Uber home for $4). Pros: -Location as described above. Our balcony also has a great downtown view, which is awesome. -Interior Finishes. Having renovated several homes and hand selected paint, tile, countertops, appliances, etc. to say I am picky would be an understatement. Some of these finishes are what I would select in our own home like the quartz countertops and high end gas stove. -Storage - we have a lot of stuff, and our unit (1 bed with den) seems to fit everything nicely. -New building - I would consider this a huge plus, as we're the first to live in our unit. Construction on the property (which there has been a minimal amount) doesn't bother us in the least. -Bathroom - it's huge, literally almost too big (would like to have some of that real estate back for the living room). But who can complain about a huge vanity and separate tiled shower and tub? Not this one. -Office staff - we worked with Meaghan to sign our lease and she was absolutely wonderful. When we were apartment hunting, the leasing professionally literally made us walk away from some properties. She made us feel welcome and at home. Everyone else we have dealt with has been very professional and friendly as well. -Pool. It's gorgeous. It's also not very crowded on the weekend mornings, which is nice to be able to go out and read a book. Cons: -Lack of outdoor space for the four legged residents. My dog is not picky, but it would be nice to have a small area just dogs since so many residents seem to have furry friends (and they are not a bother at all). -Construction of the surrounding streets. I feel we're at the epicenter of road construction in Houston at Westheimer and South Shephard. Nothing the building can control, but hopefully it will be done soon. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend 21 Eleven!

We moved into 21 Eleven in May while the complex was still being built. So far we've loved living here and I would recommend it to anyone! Pros: -Well built with good quality appliances (we love our gas stove!!) -LOTS of cabinet space in the kitchen (1br1ba) -Extremely friendly and helpful staff -Multiple parking garages -Great location, walkable to just about everything! -Socials and food trucks to get to know your neighbors -Double level gym, business center, and pool (all well kept) -Very quiet, the only time we hear other residents is when they're walking in the hall in front of our apartment Cons: -Construction nearby- I believe the city said they would be done with the Westheimer/Shepherd road construction by July...now I wish I had asked what year. -The spring floods left us with a "temporary mail room" in the top floor garage. Not a big issue but the original *looked* much nicer -Small apartment for the money, but comparable to other apartments in the area I think the pros outweigh the cons by a long shot- great place to live!
