Practical and Very Unique

May 16, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
My 3-year stay with Madison West was great overall. Being family-owned, it was a refreshing change of pace from dealing large property management companies. Management cares about the residents and their well-being, and maintenance requests are handled promptly and effectively. There aren’t really any of the largely unnecessary amenities there, so you only pay for what you need. Mark, Melissa, Don, and the rest of the Madison West team were great to rent with, and I highly recommend them. ...
Location is great for easy access to the train station and other nearby areas of interest.

Had a good experience in Madison West.

July 2, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
Lived in Madison West 2015-2017. Safe downtown area, one block from police station, can walk to train station, harbor, library, churches. Ray Bradbury Park is right behind the building (tiny park with a ravine, creek and woods). Parking was included and it was only a little extra to get a covered space and avoid shoveling. Only paid rent, internet and electric. Electric bill was small unless we ran the AC all day. After one year the rent went up... by $10, and they told us in advance. Very honest ...
people and it is nice to have the building manager living in the building.
