Look no more !
I was genuinely blown away by the friendliness of the staff and the amazing indoor pool here seriously impressive and the selling point! The kitchens are newly remodeled and very modern! However, it was a bit disappointing that the specific home I was interested in wasn't available for viewing. Nonetheless, the overall experience left me very intrigued about the possibility of living here!

Something Spectacular!
From the experience living here, I would say location, maintenance and management make this a place to call home. While I know there are some negative reviews for the past few years, the recent team has been a joy to work with and I encourage anyone who is curious to come and feel the energy and care that is currently put into Desie Apartments!

New manager - much better
Sarah the new manager is amazing, so responsive, kind, and gets things done! Zaine in the office is also very helpful. They put together a holiday party for everyone with a hot cocoa bar and everything, it was so nice, and they said there will be more resident events from now on. Things are definitely turning around in the best way here!

Terrible management making it a terrible place to live
Recently moved out due to the changes in management. The current property manager is awful and discourteous. They always raise rent by $100 per month with every new lease. Parking is atrocious. DONT move here.

Not the worst or the best
Pros: close to shopping and downtown Seattle, one of the most affordable apartments in the area. own laundry in apartment, awesome office staff
Cons: Parking is absolutely horrible, nearby crime, allows smoking in apartments, no matter how many times you ask maintenance to fix the garbage disposal in the kitchen sink it will still be broken, your innards will hurt from the speed bumps no matter how slow you go, very thin walls and ceiling/floors you’ll hear your roommates and neighbors a lot
