A hidden gem
My husband and I have lived in this apartment for about 10 months now, and it is hands down the best apartment we have ever lived in. I have lived in New York, California, and now Seattle, but this is much better than any other apartment I have had in a big city. Every time we had a concern, it was addressed promptly by the manager who is extremely responsive.
There are a couple of small downsides which are-
1. They allow pets. One corner of our bedroom has a residual smell from the previous... renter's dog.
2. A lot of spiders get into the apartment; though they are mostly harmless, it can be annoying to be killing them constantly.
But there are so many more pros than cons:
1. The rent price is unbeatable for the location. The neighborhood is nice/safe and it's like a 5 min drive to downtown and 25min drive to Bellevue.
2. PARKING. There is so much free parking. You can't always get a space in the lot, but there is always street parking.
3. The room is not a studio but a full 1-bedroom apt. There is also a separate storage room in the basement hallway where you can put extra stuff in a locker.
4. The landlord is so kind. He often leaves free food in the laundry room and consistently updates the apartment (recently, the laundry machines and outdoor grill got updated).
I could say more but these are the things that stood out to me. We're so lucky we got this apartment!
