Reviews from the web
Showing 6 highest rated
I lived here for 3 years and thoroughly enjoyed it! The building is quiet, well maintained, and walking distance to both Cap Hill and Downtown. I loved my one bedroom apartment. It was so spacious with great natural light.
The building went through a management change while I was here— and I truly had the opposite experience some reviewers say they had. They were always responsive if I had any issues which were next to none.
The only reason I had to move was a relocation out of state! Otherwise, I would’ve renewed my lease without a second thought. Which is a shame because the current management has made wonderful improvements! I would go back to living here if I were still renting and in Seattle.
PS: The noise of sirens and ambulances is honestly not bad at all. You’re literally in the city, next to hospitals, of course you’re going to hear these sounds every now and then. Upon moving out, I received part of my security deposit with no issues.

I loved living here. The building is quiet and well maintained. Some minor issues here and there but otherwise no complaints. Only reason I moved is because I moved out of Seattle. Subtracted a star because the rent increase was a bit ridiculous, would’ve stayed a few more months to spend another summer in Seattle but financially couldn’t swing it.

I’ve lived in these apartment for a year and i’ve had nothing but trouble, I left because everything was falling apart, i would tell the landlord and nothing would get fixed. Sinks sprays all crazy, drains won’t drain properly. The upstairs neighbors sounded like they were bowling all night, i would tell the landlord with no action being taken. I would do laundry and the clothes would come out smelling moldy and reeked. Slum lord at best. I would not recommend living in these apartments.
