Overview & Location
Flats On The Row is located in Newport, Kentucky (ZIP 41071), directly across the Ohio River from downtown Cincinnati. The address places residents in a walkable riverside neighborhood with easy access to the Cincinnati metropolitan area. The property is classified as a student-housing residence, though it also suits young professionals or anyone seeking short-term rentals in the region.
The building sits at latitude 39.0925, longitude -84.4992, roughly one mile from the John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge connecting Newport to Cincinnati’s central business district. Public transit and ride‑share services are available, but owning a car is convenient for groceries and commuting. The immediate area includes retail, dining, and the Newport on the Levee entertainment complex.
Who Is This Residence For?
Flats On The Row works best for individuals who value in‑unit amenities, a responsive maintenance team, and a lease that starts as early as June 2026. Given the minimum lease of six months, it suits students on semester‑long internships or co‑ops, as well as professionals who need mid‑term housing.
The property is tagged with a “best_value” label on the listing platform, meaning its price‑to‑feature ratio is considered favourable compared to other options in the same city. Studio and one‑bedroom units are ideal for solo occupants, while two‑bedroom apartments work for housemates splitting costs.
Residents who prioritise fitness will appreciate the on‑site gym (noted in the tags). The 138 Google reviews with a collective rating of 4.0 stars suggest a generally positive experience, particularly regarding management responsiveness.
Who Might Want to Look Elsewhere?
Prospective tenants on a very tight budget should note that the starting price of 989 USD per month is above Cincinnati’s city‑wide from‑price of 699 USD. While Flats On The Row offers amenities that cheaper listings may lack, anyone whose absolute ceiling is 700‑800 USD per month may need to consider other properties.
Because the residence is in Newport, Kentucky, residents pay Kentucky state income tax rather than Ohio tax if they work locally – though that distinction matters mainly for long‑term employment. If you need to be within walking distance of the University of Cincinnati main campus (about three miles north), you would rely on driving or public transit. The listing does not include any university affiliations, so it may not have the same student community focus as a purpose‑built student complex.
Finally, the property’s price range (989–3003 USD/month) shows a wide spread; the top‑end units may not feel like a “best value” to everyone. If you require a very short lease (less than six months), this residence will not meet that need.
What Residents Actually Say
Google reviews highlight two consistent themes: helpful leasing staff and fast maintenance. Below are verbatim excerpts from three separate five‑star reviews.
Alex Sepulveda (5 stars):
“The leasing staff was super helpful with signing my lease! They were very responsive to all my questions and explaining everything. When I first moved in I had an issue with my sink and I submitted a maintenance request, shortly after Shawn came and looked at my sink. He even came back to fix the issue when I called hi”
Grace Iha (5 stars):
“Christopher was at my home minutes after business hours started this morning, to fix a plumbing issue. I submitted the ticket maybe an hour beforehand.. he was quick, courteous, made sure he cleaned up after himself, and took care of the issue with urgency. Thank you so much, he’s a keeper!”
Roxanna Mooney (5 stars):
“I’ve been a resident here for over a year and couldn’t be happier with my choice. The apartment itself is beautiful, with granite flooring, all black new appliances that make it feel like a true home. The management team is incredibly professional and responsive—any time I’ve had a question, Paulina and Carey in the le”
These quotes indicate that maintenance requests are handled promptly and courteously, and the leasing process is clear. One resident mentions granite flooring and new black appliances, suggesting the interiors are modern.
Price Positioning vs City Average
Cincinnati’s from‑price (the cheapest available listing in the city at the time of data collection) is 699 USD per month. Flats On The Row’s minimum price of 989 USD is 290 USD higher than that floor. However, the city’s property count is only five, so the from‑price may represent a very basic unit or a different location.
Flats On The Row’s monthly prices range from 989 USD to 3003 USD, depending on unit type, floor plan, and lease duration. All prices mentioned are indicative — confirm with the operator. The deposit is 500 USD, which is moderate relative to the monthly rent.
Compared to the city’s lowest offer, Flats On The Row sits in the upper‑mid bracket. The added cost buys you the gym, newer appliances (per reviews), and the professional management described in the feedback.
Room Type Guidance
The property offers four unit types: studio, one‑bedroom, two‑bedroom, and apartment (generic, likely a larger layout or a convertible).
- Studio: Best for a single person who wants an open‑plan living/sleeping area. Usually the most affordable option – expect prices near the lower end of the range.
- One‑bedroom: Suitable for a couple or a single who prefers separate bedroom space. Mid‑range pricing.
- Two‑bedroom: Ideal for two roommates. Splitting the rent can bring each person’s share closer to the city from‑price.
- Apartment: This category may include larger units or specific layouts – ask the operator for floor plans.
Because the property has a “best_value” tag, the one‑bedroom or two‑bedroom layouts could offer the most square footage per dollar, but you should request exact dimensions and utility costs before signing.
Booking Timing
Units are available from 6 July 2026. As of the data date (July 2026), availability is current – meaning some units are move‑in ready. For a 6‑month lease starting in July 2026, the lease would run through December 2026 or January 2027.
If you plan to move in the summer or fall of 2026, booking now is advisable. The property is one of only five in the city listed on the platform, so inventory may be limited. Demand could increase as the academic year approaches. Always confirm the exact move‑in date and lease term with the operator.
