Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

Illumina has been a wonderful place to live in. It is in a relatively quiet neighborhood but still have access to local bars/restaurants and nearby neighborhoods as well. Amber, the property manager, was incredibly helpful during my move-in and made the process go smoothly and fast. I appreciate Amber's efforts to make Illumina extra welcoming by hosting events during the holidays.

Been living here for about a year and I’ve got to say it’s been the best apartment building I’ve ever lived in. I’ve got a nice view of the space needle, I use the rooftop regularly to bbq, management is very responsive, and the price is very fair. I plan on extending my lease when it is up.
