"Cardinal Village is a wonderful place for my daughter, a U of L student, to live! Donna, the property manager, and staff take pride in maintaining the property and it shows. Donna helped make the application and move-in process easy and efficient! This is a safe, well maintained and comfortable place to live!"

"As a UofL student, this is the perfect place to live! The apartments are nice and spacious, I never have any noise problems, and the proximity to campus is extremely convenient (especially as a music student). The landlady is extremely hands-on and helpful as well, and the entire staff is kind and sociable. It's a great residential community to be a part of!"

"I have been living at CV for a month now and it has been wonderful! The staff are responsive, and overall have been great to work with. It’s quiet, the space feels safe, the free parking space is wonderful, and I haven’t heard anyone while in my apartment other than the people above me. It’s been 10/10 overall so far. I would recommend this village to anyone looking for a place to stay."

"Very nice apartment, everything was very clean and the layout is nice (I really like having the open bar/table linking the kitchen and living room). Whole apartment feels bigger than it is as well; plenty of room. Air conditioning works great, all the appliances were in order, and overall it's great to be able to have a nice and comfy place to call home right away after a big move to a new city. Donna is incredibly kind and welcoming, and made sure I knew where everything was and am happy with the place."

"Donna (the manager) is wonderful, and maintenance has always been very helpful. Highly recommended for UofL or Spalding students, or anyone looking for affordable housing in downtown/Old Louisville!"

"Lived here since January 2022 and so far no complaints. The staff here is very friendly, and the apartment was also clean with no signs of damage when I moved in. They make sure everything is up to date and always do their best to help whenever they can, especially the property manager. Thank you Donna and the rest of the staff at Cardinal Village. Appreciate all the great work."

"I'm a dad, in my middle 50's. I believe relationships with people matter. My 20-year-old daughter (and her cohort) will do well to know her people at the bank, people who repair the car, etc. Knowing the people you rely on makes for confidence in the interactions and provides a human venue for solving problems with mutual respect and reason. THANKS TO Cardinal Village for having PEOPLE who make the difference! THANKS TO Donna Beeler for being the manager she is! As a dad, out of town, I've found CV to be attentive, prompt, thorough, and to show a genuine interest in the wellbeing of the college-age people for whom they provide housing. [By contrast (and, warning, this may be an emotional trigger) . . . at CV there is no unassigned email wastebasket where questions are eventually fielded randomly by undergraduate staffers, generating four wildly different responses for every three people you actually get to talk with. If that's you're preference, Campus Housing awaits you!] Thanks, again, CV; thanks, Donna. Tim"

"Cardinal Village is an Excellent place to live in. The place is very calm and the staff is very helpful. If we need a maintenance request we get it fixed in the same day. Donna, the manager, is very good person and friendly. I lived here for about six months and my experience is great."

"It is a nice apartment that is really close to the UofL. I love it. You can really save many time in commuting. The buliding was built about 40 years ago but everything is mantanined good. Donna is always kind, helpful and respond quickly. Thank you, Donna. Five Star!"

"Are you looking for an exceptionally friendly community with an amazing property manager with impeccable attention to detail? Look no further. Cardinal Village is, hands-down, the best complex in the area. Location to the U of L School of Music made this property a very easy contender. Cardinal Village shifted from a contender into the clear choice once we started working with Ms. Donna. Again, you're not going to find a more professional crew that really knows how to get things done! Stop looking for options and start the process with the Cardinal Villages right away!"

"So far, love it! I just moved in this past weekend, and for the price, it is phenomenal. It is close to UofL, and just about anything else you would need. The property manager Donna is very kind, and responds quickly. I can see myself living here for quite some time!"

"This is such a great place to live! I lived here for a little over a year and then moved away... now I am moving back because my experience here was so great! Donna, the property manager, is very kind and helpful. The units and building are in great condition. The parking lot is never full and you will always have parking close to your apartment. Overall, Cardinal Village was, and will be an amazing place to live if you're considering it. So many good things to say about this place, I really have no complaints."

"I have been living at the Cardinal Village for one year and a half. It's been very convenient due to my studies at the University of Louisville - 15 minutes walking to my school. Another critical factor is safety and a spacious parking lot. Each resident has their keys to the external doors, the parking lot is large and illuminated. My apartment has a decent size and a great balcony. The unit, though, is old so the floor is noisy, but there are other units already renovated. The building is clean, and it has a nice laundry with all machines operating properly. Now, because of the stairs, you need help moving in with your stuff. Lastly, the manager, Donna Beeler, is so helpful! She is always responsive to my requests."

"Donna was ALWAYS extremely kind and professional. She was ALWAYS extremely helpful and was always making our lives easier. When we were out of town, for example, she would put our correspondences and boxes in our apartment, she would check in if we were okay. Every detail that we needed, for example, fix a toilet, she would respond PROMPTLY and she would make sure that it was fixed in the same day! Cardinal Village is a wonderful place to live thanks to Donna!! She is the reason why you should rent this place!! Trust me! Pay a few extra bucks for having an amazing quality of life! Everything she does demonstrates how much she cares about everyone in the property. She is always attentive and caring!! Thank you SO much for everything, Donna!!! We greatly appreciate it!"

"Living at Cardinal Village is absolutely perfect for me. The apartment is clean, updated, and the perfect size for just me and my dog. I can walk to campus, and I love my short commute! It's so nice to have a parking lot for when I do need to drive somewhere or when I have guests, though. Donna, the manager, is so helpful and kind. She has responded right away to the few issues I have had. She has gone above and beyond to make me and my dog feel welcome here. It is a great place to call home!"

"I first saw this apartment online and called to check it out. The office manager immediately answered, and answered my four subsequent calls with other questions even though it was the weekend and the office was closed! It is so clean and well kept. The attention paid to a quality place to live is so high. The people who work here are very personable and quick to respond. It's great!"

"it has been 14 months now in Cardinal Village so far. If you work or study at U of L, Cardinal Village is the place to be. Commuting is very easy. PNC bank is just next door and lots of restaurants and ice-cream shops around to explore. Very peaceful and parking space is always available. The best thing that happened in Cardinal Village is the manager Donna. She is very organized and helpful. She helped me to take care of my mail while I was away more than a month. Wonderful time here!"

"I can't say enough good things about Cardinal Village and on-site manager Donna Beeler. My daughter is in undergraduate school of U of L, and we were looking for a safe and clean place for her to live...There is a parking lot adjacent to the building, the building has key-entry access, and the manager is on-site to deal with any items. The complex is literally catty-corner to the University -so she could easily walk to class. We are so thankful to have found this for our daughter!"

"Living here is amazing! Cardinal Village is in closer proximity to campus than many "on-campus" living facilities. Ms. Donna and Louis are extremely helpful and understanding-- as are my neighbors. I feel safe living here. In the nearly two years that I have live here, university students have been really considerate when it comes to noise level and traffic. This is probably one of the best places to rent from!"

"I lived in Cardinal Village as an undergraduate at U of L, and it is by far one of the best places I have lived. Maintenance was great, management was amazing, and I loved the floor plan. It was good for my needs as a student needing somewhere close to campus."

"I have lived here with my boyfriend for several months now and we could not be happier with the apartments at Cardinal Village. Even my classes that are on the far side of the U of L Belknap campus are at most a 15 minute walk. I feel extremely safe here, it is well lit for when I come in late and there is always plenty of parking. They are constantly maintaining the area and it is very clean, never any bugs. Laundry is in the main building and ends up costing to wash and dry total 3 dollars a load. The walls are extremely sound proof and it is a very quiet complex, if my boyfriend and I are in separate rooms i can barely hear him talking which makes studying really nice and I never hear my neighbors. The apartments are older, the only place that I can see that is in the kitchen, but it comes with a fridge, oven/stove, and dishwasher. The apartments on the bottom level do not come with a balcony but they are a bit cheaper, we have a balcony which we use often and it lets in a lot of light. The neighborhood has lots of restaurants you can walk to and a Kroger about a mile away. Plenty of water pressure and I have never run out of hot water, it is also included in the rent. They do a drawing every month if you pay your rent early to win 25 dollars, and they hold your packages for you so that no one could steal it like they could at other complexes. I visited tons of apartments before moving to Louisville and this has been by far the best decision I am extremely comfortable here and the rent is well worth it for the location and safety."

"I have a wonderful experience here! The manager and the maintenance are both nice and helpful. The apartment is 5 minutes walking distance to U of L main campus. Not-fully furnished but it's easy to buy everything from U of L students."

"My son rented a one bedroom apartment at Cardinal Village this past year. It is so nice, safe, convenient. The apartment complex is located at the corner of 2nd St and Cardinal Blvd directly across the street from U of L and just a block down the street from Cardinal Towne. There is plenty of off street parking for residents which is well lighted. The external doors to the complex lock so only residents with keys can enter the building at night. Laundry is conveniently on-site. The apartment manager, Donna, is so helpful and does a wonderful job keeping everything properly maintained."
