Reviews from the web

Showing 1 highest rated

I lived here for a year and a half. There were some intial minor hiccups, but Larry and his team took care of it rapidly and seamlessly. Anytime I had an issue, Larry was on it faster than light. Only reason I moved out was my SO and I decided it was time to move in together and a studio wasn't large enough for the both of us. If you don't need a large space, this place is awesome, parking is pretty easy, most inconvenience is maybe around the corner. The apartment is nice, the only downfall is the lack of elevator. But beyond that, most of the the time laundry is available, the Bridge sports bar is literally a block away and is still one of my favorite spots in Seattle. Just north is the Juneau convenience store, which is fairly priced and exceptionally convenient. I loved living here and miss it still. It's price for size is perfect and when you move in, I promise, it'll be exactly what you want. As a shout out, Larry the property manager is super chill, he's always helpful and easily the best landlord/property manager I've ever interacted with. The company that owns this property is also super helpful and easy to work with.
