+ Utilities: Everything is included at a flat rate.
Great management and internet, but somewhat pricey, especially if you live in the apartments that haven't been remodeled yet.Įdit: I've tried to upload photos of more than just the hallways, but they disappear immediately after I upload them. If your classes are closer to Grainger and Humanities, though, the walk is about 25 minutes, and there are probably more convenient places to live. So overall I would recommend this place for an engineering student simply because the ~5 minute walk to class is incredibly convenient. Maybe that's just protocol but upon returning from Winter and Spring break, I found a note on my door saying it had been entered for maintenance and the door was unlocked.
However anyone reading this should know that the maintenance staff seems to have a bad habit of leaving your room unlocked after they leave. Never had any problems with laundry, heating, internet, etc. Lighting in hallways and rooms could use a bit of work but not a big deal with a desk lamp. The proximity to the UW engineering campus is unparalleled and the building is nice and clean - remodeled rooms are very nice too. I have renewed my lease here and hopefully won't have that problem again. If you're considering this apartment just be aware that the walls are pretty thin and while I don't overhear just talking, music blasting in the apartment next door will just carry right over into your room.Īll that being said, given you don't have a noisy neighbor, this apartment building is pretty good.
Just a sticky situation and I just got unlucky. although I don't think it's their fault, really. Despite two complaints to the apartment management nothing changed about it. I had no problems with this apartment building except the endless music and noise coming from my neighbors.
