Loved my time here

May 28, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com

The units are quite small but it's really affordable for the location. Very close to light rail, Broadway and the parks, without being subject to much noise. The management is great, super friendly, flexible and approachable, it's so rare to find a place not owned by a mega-corporation with management you can actually reason with rather than deal with levels of bureaucracy.

Decent place, all things considered.

May 28, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com

We lived here for five years. Typical apartment living. Issues that arose were swiftly handled. While the owner became hard to contact at times, we had a great relationship with the building manager and learned to communicate through her. While the units are on the small size for the price, you’re paying for the location which is central to everything Capitol Hill has to offer. Rent increases were very reasonable and even paused during COVID.

Hope you enjoy the location, because that's all you're gonna like about it

July 30, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com

Only reason for 2 stars is the location; absolutely perfect. Quick walk to grocery stores, the library, the light rail, and even popular bars and clubs. However, you pay for location and location only. It felt like a shoebox. An extra $50 a month is tacked on to your lease that they don't really tell you about unless you read the fine print. That fee is several months delayed too. Two months worth was deducted from our deposit when it was returned a month after move out. I had packages stolen not ...

once but twice, and management said the surveillance system was conveniently down during the select hours my package should have been there. Paper thin walls so you can hear your neighbors serenading their cats at 11pm and upstairs tenants flushing toilets at 5am. Takes days if not weeks to hear back from your landlord between calls, texts, and emails.
