I waited until my tenancy was fully completed, utilities were settled, my move-out refund was…read morereceived, and my account balance was verified at zero before posting this review. The Meyden has positives. The location is attractive, the property presents well visually, and some units offer beautiful views. Unfortunately, my actual living experience was deeply disappointing. A significant issue surfaced immediately after move-in involving my AC system and drain line. The problem required ongoing remediation efforts and frequent maintenance access throughout my tenancy. During certain periods, maintenance presence became a near-daily reality, and visit timing often felt inconsistent enough that I rarely knew when someone might arrive. During this process, I experienced multiple occasions where maintenance personnel were inside my apartment before I realized they had arrived. On one occasion, I awoke from a nap to find maintenance personnel in my unit. On another, I had just exited the shower and discovered maintenance personnel already present. Regardless of procedures surrounding access, the unpredictability and frequency of entry significantly affected my sense of privacy and comfort in my own home. I also experienced recurring drain/water odors, repeated notices, inspections, maintenance scheduling, and a general feeling of continual interruption rather than residential calm. Noise was another major factor in my experience. Environmental noise, surrounding activity, and sound transmission between units were all noticeable. Footsteps, pacing, dropped items, and neighboring activity were often clearly audible. One particularly difficult issue involved my piano. My piano was a major priority during my housing search, and I disclosed during touring, leasing, and move-in that I am a longtime pianist who plays frequently. At every stage, I was informed this would not be an issue provided I remained outside quiet hours. I followed those expectations. Despite this, I received repeated complaint communications regarding my playing. After discussing the matter directly, I learned the complaints originated from a single neighboring resident. I verified that I was not playing during quiet hours and obtained written confirmation that piano playing was permitted. Despite this, the situation escalated into direct confrontation from the neighbor before the matter was ultimately addressed. My move-out and lease closeout experiences were also difficult. After providing notice, coordinating logistics, and reserving an elevator, my midweek move-out during normal business hours changed unexpectedly due to an off-site staff meeting, requiring me to personally manage portions of the move-out process that I had not anticipated handling. Additionally, a prior rent accommodation related to the initial AC issue was effectively reversed during the early lease termination settlement, substantially increasing the financial burden of ending the lease. Attempts to negotiate a more flexible resolution were unsuccessful. Every renter will prioritize different things. Based on my experience, I would encourage prospective residents to carefully consider maintenance/access expectations, building noise sensitivity, operational processes, and lease flexibility when determining fit. I would not choose to live here again.

They are always ready to help you and solve your problem. I can feel they really care about your problems and want to make your stay comfortable and happy. I had a package showed delivered but actually the mail man did not delivered to my door or in the locker. Manager MT helped me, we looked every possible corner. Although we failed to find it, he suggests me to send him the proof of delivery and he will help me asking the mailman where the package is. I really appreciate his help for me, which makes me feel much better from the frustrations of finding a missing mail. Besides, their building is concrete so that it is always quiet. They have air conditioning and they have great places for BBQ, game, party. And they have a gym. I like their decorations in the lobby and hallways. They have a lot of lightning in the room so you may not need to buy several floor lamps. I love their kitchen island, which save me buying a dining table. There are 7-11 and CVS next to the Meyden; and a 5 mins walk to Safeway. So it is convenient! Also, the downtown park are great for walker, jogger, dogs; the beach park has a stunning view all season, and super fun water sport time in the summer. The Bellevue square could be a great shopping place. And the Bellevue art museum is about 10 mins walking. I love living here and I recommend to live at the Meyden.

I'm alarmed by the tendancy of the Lyric to create questionable charges, including an attempt to…read morepass their increased insurance costs on to residents beyond what was agreed to in our leases (234 units x $15/mo = $42k/yr). When I moved out, they claimed several hours of sanding work required for repainting and were evasive about providing evidence that it actually took so long. Every lease renewal saw a giant jump in rates (9.9% one year), which we negotiated back down to sane levels. They use algorithmic pricing designed to worsen the housing crisis while maximizing their profits. They also recently decided to stop offering affordable housing units under the MFTE program. Building was frequently under repair, including elevators being out of service for months, which was incredibly difficult when my partner was recovering from knee surgery. The units, which are now finally undergoing renovation, were poorly lit with low quality fixtures like plastic track lights, vinyl flooring, and a prison shower head. The original office staff were quite unhelpful and antagonistic, prioritizing nagging residents about hallway door decorations (while simultaneously awarding prizes for holiday decorations??). This has improved with almost complete turnover in staffing. Maintenance staff have always been very responsive and helpful. Regarding Capitol Hill itself, the value of the neighborhood has really declined. If you want to pay $4,000/mo to live in walking distance of 15 boba tea shops and national fried chicken chains while ignoring the human misery all around you, go for it I guess.

Notice how all the other reviews are from several years ago... There's a good reason they actually…read moregave good reviews. First few years were great (moved in 2016), managers were really nice. Shout out to Mimi, and then Schick, both were fantastic. But after they left things really went downhill. Management was just a lot more unresponsive, less helpful. Maintenance folks were good but of course they depend on management to relay tickets, so that was a problem. Turnover was a real problem as well - some just seemed clueless. The worst thing honestly was after we moved out. Manager was very lazy about how he handled the final inspection and refund of our deposit. I had provided him a new address to send it to and also had mail forwarding so that wasn't the issue, and of course he had my phone number and email address. I called but was simply told it'd be a couple of weeks. Still nothing so I email them multiple times, still nothing. So I just let it go. Fast forward a year and we receive a letter from a DEBT COLLECTOR (IQ Data Inc, a notoriously aggressive and unpleasant debt collector, look up reviews). Turns out the cleaning costs/final utilities cost more than the deposit - but the manager had failed to send a statement of charges, and worse, wouldn't even respond to my multiple attempts to follow up on our deposit/any charges. Instead he just let it go straight to collections... I asked if I could at least be refunded/reimbursed for the interest the debt collectors were charging on top of the original charges, a measly $27, but wouldn't even do this. Be warned, this is the sort of thing you may have to deal with after the move out. Not a rent paying resident anymore so they don't care I guess. There were also multiple break ins in the parking lot even during evenings when the garage doors should have been closed - seems they just left it open because it was easier e.g. for contractors. My car was broken in but nothing was stolen (don't leave valuables of course!), but a coworker who also lived there straight up had his car stolen. It might seem cheap for the location (still expensive of course, this is Bellevue), but it's for a reason. Updating my review since the new manager also broke their promise and ended up refusing to reimburse me.

I've been wanting to update my review for a while now. After living at Vicino for two years, I feel…read morelike I have enough perspective to share our experience. My original one star has become a two star because despite our frustrations, there are still things and people here that we do genuinely appreciate. After the car break in, we raised concerns about the lack of security cameras and how unsupported we felt. It was especially frustrating that Vicino didn't respond to my Yelp review until 2 months later (you can see their response on December 9, 2025). Their response said they took our concerns seriously but to our knowledge, additional cameras were never installed inside the garage. Parking has also been a constant frustration. The spaces are tight considering the cost, and our parking neighbor has crossed into our space before. Large trucks are often parked along the fence near the garage entrance, making visibility hard when exiting onto the main road or turning in. Visitor parking is limited, and drivers often speed through the garage around the tight corners. Our experience with management was a big part of why we became unhappy. Communication became increasingly difficult particularly with Shelly, who was the property manager at the time. When we signed our lease, we had an agreement for two parking spaces for both of our cars. We had those spaces for several months with no issues, but after the car break in and while we were also dealing with hard water dripping onto both of our vehicles, one of our spaces was taken away shortly before Shelly left. I don't want to assume anyone's intentions, but there was very little communication about the change and the timing left a bad impression on us... Our experience definitely improved after Shelly and several other staff members left. The atmosphere feels more pleasant, and our interactions with current staff have been much better. Paul, the new property manager, has always been kind and approachable and we REALLY appreciate that! We've also dealt with quite a few maintenance issues, including our AC failing within the first few months, plumbing problems requiring access through our apartment, hard water dripping onto both of our vehicles from cracks in the garage, and a dishwasher that randomly stopped working. Some repairs were poorly done and later had to be redone, and the window cleaners skipped one of our windows and did a poor job overall. None of these things were dealbreakers on their own, but repeatedly dealing with repairs and scheduling access to our apartment in a newer building (opened June 2024) was frustrating. That being said, the maintenance team has been one of the best parts of our experience. Gabriel, Marcio, and John have consistently been kind, responsive, and helpful. We really appreciate them! Smoking is also an ongoing issue. We've regularly smelled strong cigarette and marijuana odors in the hallways, elevators, and other shared spaces. We even received an email from management about people smoking in the stairwells, and there have been multiple times I've noticed people smoking on their patios. If you are sensitive to odors, have children, or have a very sensitive pet like us, this is something I would definitely consider before moving in. We've also had a package stolen, and the parcel room can become extremely disorganized. Packages pile up quickly and can be difficult to locate. Overall, Vicino markets itself as a "luxury" apartment community, but the events and amenities don't always live up to that experience. Many events we've attended have felt poorly planned or underwhelming. After two years, these things add up to the feeling that the luxury experience being advertised doesn't match the reality of living here. We've also noticed a general lack of consideration in the common areas. We've had a few experiences where people rush into elevators before letting others exit or are otherwise inconsiderate in shared spaces. After two years, those interactions definitely add up... I understand that no apartment building is perfect, and despite everything I've mentioned we do like our apartment itself and have made it into a cozy little home. It will always be special to us because it was our first place together as an engaged couple! There's also a beautiful view of the city from the rooftop areas which we've loved. I appreciate the small improvements we've seen over time. However, the accumulation of issues over two years has unfortunately made us unhappy here. Security concerns, parking problems, smoking odors, cleanliness of shared spaces, package issues, inconsistent enforcement, and overall lack of organization make it difficult to feel like we're receiving the "luxury" experience Vicino claims to offer. I hope management takes feedback from current residents more seriously and starts focuses not only on how it presents itself to future residents, but also on what it actually feels like to live here!

That does not account for partial hours parked, even if only a few minutes. Like the other review, I was charged $91 to park my car for 3 hours and 3 minutes in this lot. Best part is I would have been out before the 3 hours, but valet was obstructing my exit by helping a customer, or resetting the gate. Also, rates posted on Bellevue square's website are falsely advertised as being much lower. Had I used my credit card this would be an easy charge- back, unfortunately that wasn't the case. Park anywhere else, make sure you don't park at Park88 Edit: after posting this I was refunded 20$, when requesting customer service check the cameras. I had to push back in a 2nd reply. Bellevue square still needs to update pricing for park88 on their website, which is no longer current.

A+ security! Apartment design straight from a startup office: Kitchen has a cubicle wall instead of an island. Closets are just a rod. No balcony screen, but sure--pets allowed! What could go wrong? AC vents? Smell like they haven't been cleaned since the building was constructed. Amazon locker roulette: Lockers are down by the dumpster. Classy. Don't be surprised if your package ends up with a neighbor--or in another building entirely. Access system overkill: You'll need three separate systems to live your daily life here. Butterfly app, SmartRent, and a fob--none of which work well together. Android users, prepare to be locked out.
