Of all apartments I have been a resident of during my years of traveling throughout the US, I have…read moreto strongly admire how amazing of a property and well managed Arrive truly is. To start with the basics about the complex, 1) The units are fairly well sized compared to competitors around the area and the layouts of each units are well organized and efficient for day-to-day living. 2) The community amenities from the Rooftop (Best View of the City), Kitchen Area/BBQ Grills, Theater Room, Gym are better in quality and easily accessible when compared to similar High Rise communities through out the country that I have personally experienced. To include some other aspects about the complex, 1) 24/7 Coverage of Front Door - This building provided 24/7 hours coverage of the front door for any deliveries and visitors. Property staff is usually at the Front Entrance from around 9am - 6pm with coverage from Security Company between 6pm-6am. 2) Shared Property with Top Tier Hotel Brand - This property is shared with a high end top tier Hotel Brand that provides additional safety and amenities to residents like having a Restaurant/Bar downstairs with a friendly resident discount honored. In Conclusion, the greatest thing anything could ask for from this property is having one of the best Management Team. From the Leasing Team to the Property Manager, there is not enough words to explain how amazing they are. Some of the best features provided by the team is being attentive to all requests from managing deliveries, storing packages in on-site lockers or holding in a private mail room only accessible by staff, to dedicating 1:1 time for any discussion or concerns to address. As I have been a long-time resident at the property, I can truthfully say with confidence that this is the best property I have lived at and would strongly suggest everyone to take a look at this property when looking for a place to reside.

This building is amazing, and I have happily lived here for 6.5 years. Terrific shared setup with…read moreHilton property, lovely shared spaces, a wonderful management team that fosters community way more so than other nearby apartment buildings.

Close to restaurants, clothing stores, buss stops, bars and supermarkets, you can stroll down 4th ave. at an easy pace and then take in the ambiance of the famed Pike Place Market. I found Nick the resident manager responsive and friendly. When I have a problem he immediately responses to it quickly and makes sure all goes well. He's open to suggestions to improving the living situation of the building. What I miss about living there was the laundry room. Cheaper than the other local laundromats, you go to the basement in your pajamas. This makes life more convenient and I don't have to go out at all! The Stratford allows cats! My cat liked living there too. At times she likes to wander around the hallway. I would highly recommend living there.

We lived in Seattle for 2 years at the Stratford. We had a one bedroom on one of the higher floors…read more You know I really liked it. They had large windows, hardwood floors in our unit. Great closet space and a nice kitchen. Storage lockers in the basement for additional space, on-site laundry, A workout room with equipment and additional storage for bikes and stuff. Great comparative space for the price in the area. Location wise it was great. I mean if you work downtown, especially for Amazon you cannot beat it. It was a few blocks from my work many, many buses on the opposite side of the block, Westlake two blocks away, the SLUT (South Lake Union Trolley), Shopping galore! 3 blocks from Pikes Place and the waterfront, Bed Bath and beyond, City Target, a few malls and Cinerama, an awesomely renovated 1960s theatre used for movie premiers and such. The street itself has many restaurants include 4 from James beard award winning chef Tom Douglas. The Residence manager Nick and staff were great. He would respond to by text, calls, and email for any concern. Friendly, honest and Diligent. I don't know about the Robin dude but Nick is da bomb! Oh and the is a sweet roof top deck with a bbq.

The complex is very very clean, they shampoo the carpets often, and clean each level (deep clean) twice a week. There are a ton of amenities that are easy to book. And the apartment itself is amazing, no complaints. Loved it since the day we moved in, and I've had some seriously bad apartments in the past. It's always quiet, the entire building has people who are very respectful and quiet. The other property manage, Jen - the recent review about her isn't far off. I've never personally dealt with her more than once, but i'm not sure if she's technically in a resident facing position unless Genni is gone. She's not the worst but she's never been particularly helpful, and has a very curt attitude. She always seems annoyed that she has to be there, and will not know the answer to your questions if you ask them. Genni will, and if she doesn't she will find out quickly and get back to you. The country music mentioned in the reviews does play in the lobby but it definitely is not blaring. Haha. All in all I'd recommend it!

As…read morewe were walking in with our son I heard her yell fuck 2 time's and looked like she had just gotten out of bed we almost turned around and left but decided to go on the tour.

The absolute BEST apartments in Belltown!…read more This place is a hidden gem. Unlike nearby condos, it doesn't really do major advertising - I actually found it while clicking on random buildings on Google Maps! The location is incredible - close to the Space Needle and bars, but just far enough to still enjoy quiet nights. Plus, the prices are VERY competitive compared to other places nearby. Oliver from the front office is incredibly friendly and helpful. I wasn't going to be able to view the available units in person, and he sent me a very well taken, detailed video of the interior. He answered all my questions and really made sure that my moves, both in and out, were extremely smooth. Maintenance was also prompt and always made sure that everything was fixed within 1-2 business days! Now for the apartment itself - it was much larger than any other options nearby, and it was really nice! The unit looked a bit old but clean and functional in the video, but I was wrong... it wasn't old at all! The apartment was MUCH newer, brighter, and more updated than I anticipated - the best kind of surprise. I rarely ever heard my neighbors, always had power, and I especially loved that I had a massive pantry in the kitchen. My balcony faced 4th Ave, which leads directly to the Space Needle. Although I couldn't see the Needle from my windows, I never had to leave my apartment for any parades - they always started at the Seattle Center and went directly on the street below. The amenities it had were really nice - from the clubhouse to the gym. Both were clean, easy to access, and very updated. I especially loved that you didn't need to pay to book the clubhouse for personal events, as it made hosting larger groups for meals a lot easier! I was truly heartbroken to leave Sidney when work relocated me to Texas. It's a wonderful complex, and I highly, HIGHLY recommend!! If I ever move back, you know where I'll be living.

This was one of the best apartment living experiences I've ever had, which, as you can see based on…read morethe majority of the reviews here, is generally the case for most. My apartment faced North and had a great view of the Space Needle. It was a quiet and quaint little studio that, upon move-in, was in great condition. I rarely ever had any maintenance issues, but if I did, they were addressed accordingly and in a timely manner. The Sidney is close to so many restaurants and shops and in fact, on the first floor, is Uptown Espresso. A cute little coffee shop that I would just walk down to every morning. Super convenient! The staff is what stands out about this building the most. The Property Manager is one of the best I've ever encountered. Always helpful and happy to assist. This type of management style has obviously transferred down from the manager, as the maintenance and leasing personnel are just as friendly and helpful. Overall, a wonderful living experience!

I am not even sure where to begin in this review, so I will start with Sonya who is the property…read moremanager. She is highly responsive, kind, incredibly competent, and has excellent communication skills. She is engaged and efficient. She is also flexible, reasonable, and sees the solution that would best serve all parties. We all love her. The property itself is new and modern and is perfectly located. There is a Safeway on the same block and E Madison is one block away as well as 23rd so it offers major bus lines in all directions. It is far enough away from the fray of downtown to feel peaceful yet be close enough to take a 10-minute Uber or bus to be in the action. Laundy on the property. Easy street parking. All good things!

Alright, after living here for around 4 months I feel like it's time to write a review. I'm not…read moregetting anything for this review. When I looked it up on Yelp for the first time I was a bit suspicious it had such high ratings but now I know they're justified. BACKGROUND - I am a Seattle transplant. Just graduated and just moved here fresh out of college. I wanted to live somewhere affordable, convenient, nice and still close enough to where all the fun stuff was. I looked at Cap Hill and the prices were outrageous. So the I landed on NAMU from an ad on Craigslist. LOCATION - around 5-10 minute drive from downtown Seattle and downtown Capitol Hill. Close enough for a short bus ride or a cheap Uber pool. If you check on the walk score it's around high 80s and the crime rate for the area is really low. Generally, it's closer to the suburbs. It's quiet at night because of that but occasionally there will be a siren once a week or people yelling once in a blue moon. But generally, really quiet. CONVENIENCE- I live right next to Safeway and can walk there in under 30 seconds which has saved my life many times. There's also a cute plant shop downstairs if you like plants and a Dominos pizza is opening soon, there's a Vietnamese sandwich place near the Safeway as well. The Safeway is open late which is great. There's also a YMCA a block away if you want to workout nearby! APT AMENITIES - in terms of amenities it is solid given how much rent you are paying. There's a bike rack, and a nice rooftop. None of my packages have EVER been stolen from the lobby and I've see packages left there for days so everyone in the building respects that. You can pay extra for storage and the laundry machines are on the 2nd and 3rd floor, which TAKE CARD. Generally they are full on the weekends but I haven't had an issue waiting long times for laundry. There's no pool, or lounge, trash chute or gym. The only things I wish the room had: an oven, a dishwasher (I just do my dishes by hand), and a closet. But I've adjusted. If you need these things to survive, consider that before you move in or if you have a ton of stuff / furniture / clothes because it likely won't fit. NOISE - Honestly, I'm assuming the insulation is top notch because I've heard my neighbors maybe once. ROOMS - The apartment was made in 2015 or something. I moved in 2017 and was the second tenant ever! The rooms are small, around 250-300sqft but I have enough room for a full-size bed, a queen size futon, a wardrobe hanger, and a small dining table and a bookshelf and no issues. It's a perfect studio for a single person and more than enough room to be comfy. Note there isn't a closet though so you'll have to make do with a buy your own closet thing. I really appreciate the mini fridge as it is honestly big enough for one person and since I live by Safeway I never really needed too much space anyway. The bathrooms are clean and modern and there's a big window too which is really nice in the mornings. LANDLADY / MAINTENANCE - This is what prompted me to write this review. The landlady, Sonya, has been nothing but incredible and responsive. She texts back almost immediately and even helped me once when I locked myself out of my room at midnight, and helped me get a package when I accidentally locked it. She's very thoughtful and kind and honestly I never knew how awesome thanks would be to have a great landlady until I met her! She also schedules maintenance once you report a problem to her. The maintenance guy, Mike, lives in the complex and shows up right on time to help fix your issues and is polite and nice. There was an incident where our hot water heater stopped working for around a day and Sonya immediately notified all the residents on the situation and provided suggestions for other solutions. And she even decorated the front door and lobby with a Christmas tree for the holidays!! Tldr - This is a great place to live if you're moving to Seattle as a single person. The rooms are "small" but modern, clean, and more than enough space for a studio. The facilities are brand new, and the landlady is awesome. The rent is affordable and I've I'm very happy living here and feel safe.

So I'll offer a list rather than a drawn out story... 1.) My…read morecar gets hit every other day. 2.) Apartment gets broken into EVERYDAY. 3.) Our community mail box? ROBBED (Crow bar and all). 4.) They refuse to put cameras up for liability I'd assume... But guess what? We got wires hanging from where the camera should be... 5.) Management only responds when it's getting you thru the door locked into contract. 6.) The lying (From management). 7.) What I strongly believe to be illegal entry. into resident apartments w/bait and switch tactics. 8.) The low grade quality of the apartment itself. I had a huge stain on my carpet move in day and the rep acted surprised to later admit she knew... Really??? I pay $1650 +... 9.) Homeless people urinating in the hall ways. 10.) fecal matter on the walls occasionally that EVENTUALLY, gets handled... 11.) High crime all around. 12.) NO water pressure, at all... They turned it down and well... Never went back up. My sink and shower dribble water at best. Literally. 13.) Refusal to give higher management contact info to residents. 14.) Refusal to intake information to then be passed to higher management. 15.) The maintenance techs ARE NOT, certified. It's affirmed and I have a video of one admitting... If they are, well I'm a doctor... 16.) I upset a manager and she threatened to tack extra lease violations onto my record. Her name is ARVA by the way and guess what? She's the manager of the entire community. Ever report HR to HR? Yea... Gate keeper... 17.) Lack of systems and process via their end. Aka bad communication, follow thru, appt time and dates...etc EVERYTHING. From my experience at least... 18.) I'll leave here, they love to solicit good reviews after move in or after they do something "kind"... so don't be fooled. We all have that ex who was great then suddenly... Not so much. Welcome to the Heights on Capitol Hill where the bar is low and the prices higher. Run.

The heights has been a wonderful place to live. I have really enjoyed it here…read more We were a little hesitant at first about moving in here because of the shadyness that this part of Cap Hill is known for. However, we are so glad that we did. Anna and the whole office staff have been phenomenal the whole time I have lived here. Any time there is a maintenance issue or anything,they are on TOP of it. They are very nice and always going above and beyond as well. We love our apartment and the vibe and aesthetic of it as well. :) The only thing I will advise you of is the area can be a little loud and overwhelming sometimes as there are a lot of homeless individuals and drunk people on the weekends, just an fyi. All depends on how you like to live. Transit access is phenomenal as well with the light rail station across the street and two major bus stops right beside you as well! I love the heights. We lucked out and got an apartment with all new appliances, which was lovely! I recommend checking them out for your future or current housing needs!

If you like a danish style design aesthetic, you'll love this place - natural wood kitchen and euro style appliances, walnut floors, clean lines. I also had a nice patio and my apt opened into a courtyard with tables, chairs, and a grill. The apartment was clean, spacious, quiet, and full of natural light. They even come with pre-installed window fixtures that fit the aesthetic perfectly. Loved! The grounds are kept up weekly (great landscaping that changes with the seasons) and there is a great little cafe attached to the building called Cafe Barjot. (good food, drinks, baked goods, and espresso!) The building also does a lot of nice things like holding your packages for you and hosting happy hours for all residents - this was especially nice for new people who had just relocated to Seattle. There's also an attached garage and an elevator. I think you get a lot for your money here - and if you work in South Lake Union area (Amazon, Fred Hutch, SCCA, etc) you can even walk to work.

(this is a review for the vintage unit(s), not the modern)…read more Love everything about Belroy (the view, vintage feel, quiet/nice neighborhood) except for couple minor issues and one MAJOR problem: - Washer/dryer and dishwasher (or at least a bigger kitchen sink) would've been nice in the units, but understand the limitations since it's a historic bldg etc. Still a major inconvenience. - The 'secured' garage is NOT safe, there's literally a break-in every week. I believe the owners of the bldg FINALLY hired an evening security guard to monitor, but can't believe it took literally a full year that we were there (and now that we're moving out). We've had our vespa damaged in an attempted theft, as well as the car broken into and stuff stolen from it. With the security issue hopefully addressed I'd give Belroy vintage units a 4 out of 5.

I'm leaving this review as a heads up for any future tenants. For reference, I've lived here for…read morealmost three years. Overall, it's been a good experience but there are so many things that make this place not worth the price tag. Pros: Location- Great spot and walkable to so much. Tenants- good people and high probability of making friends. Young professionals, dog lovers Thick walls: I rarely hear my neighbors -- very, very rare. Aesthetics: the apartments themselves look really nice Washer/dryer: in unit and actually good quality. I've had some awful laundry units in apartments but these are legit and work well. Cons: Break ins: I am not exaggerating when I say tenants are constantly getting their bikes stolen, it's a monthly occurrence at least. (Theres bike storage in the garage for tenants ) Storage in the apartment: it's crazy how much planning did not go into the actual apartment. For example: my pantry is a closet that has zero shelves....my bedroom closet didn't have a full hanger rack when I moved in. Little things that make zero sense. Some kitchens barely have a drawer for silverware. Things that you may not notice while doing a walk thru but notice once you move in. No AC or ventilation: this is common in Seattle, I get it but please pay attention to what direction your apartment faces. I face west and live in a loft. Heat rises. It is miserable hot. It can be 70 degrees outside but 78 inside because of the lack of airflow. Even with an AC unit (these help but you better keep all the shades down and keep it running ALLLL day/night - plus depending on your setup, you may have to move furniture around to use an AC unit) The complex has AC units available to rent ... it isn't even that hot yet and it's already hard to get my bedroom (upstairs) under 72 degrees by 9pm. The complex should offer free AC units with how hot these apartments get. When it's nice/window season, you may not want to open your window because of how loud the road is. Even on the 4th floor, if you leave your balcony door/windows open, you will wake up from traffic/buses/people on 24th and 65th. It's not quiet...at all. Amenities: these have gotten better but still not great compared to what you can get at other places. They have done some work on the rooftop but it's still just fine. No gym, TVs aren't great, etc. The building itself needs new carpet/fresh paint on the walls. Look at the stairwells. Yes, I'm being picky but for the price, it should look better. As a whole, these apartments are fine but overpriced for what they are. You are paying for location and a "good looking" apartment. For the price, they should come with AC units, have more amenities, and updates in the actual building. Management and maintenance are good, I haven't had any issues there. This review isn't meant to bash BPL but give future residents a heads up and an honest expectation of what it's like to live here. I wouldn't choose an East (am sun) or West (pm sun) facing loft apartment. Seriously, too hot. I bet south facing is your best bet (less busy road, no direct sun). Lofts are cute but I'd suggest a flat. Hope this helps!
