DO NOT MOVE HERE

June 21, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
First, the building itself is filthy. It constantly smells terrible, common areas are rarely cleaned, and the maintenance team shows no interest in keeping it up. Second, and far more alarming, this building has a serious pest problem — bedbugs, cockroaches, and rats throughout the hallways and inside individual units. Finally, the property management is some of the most unprofessional and disrespectful I’ve ever dealt with. Getting in touch with them is nearly impossible — I’ve waited weeks ...
for responses to simple questions, and they show no urgency in fixing anything. You’re treated like a number, not a resident. For your own wellbeing, please look elsewhere. You will regret moving here

You really can't beat this location if you want to be right in the middle of downtown Hamilton, everything I need is just a few steps away. The apartment itself is super clean and the brand new kitchen is fantastic

it's easily the best value for this level of style and accessibility downtown. I've been on the hunt for so long and so I'm so happy with my choice.

I like it. I love that the building lets you walk to so much downtown. The new management has been responsive when I’ve had a few small things pop up.

Wonderful!

October 24, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
if you're looking for a centrally located apartment with modern amenities at a competitive price, 255 King Street West is VERY worth it.

Excellent

October 20, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
I’ve been here for a few months and honestly it’s been better than I expected. The apartment is decent size, and I actually like that the windows let in a lot of light, makes mornings feel nicer. Hallways are clean and quiet most of the time, which is a big plus. The only weird thing is the buzzer can be a bit loud, but management fixed a minor issue I had really fast.
