Apartment recommendations Redmond

Looking for a newer apartment community close to Microsoft. ( Cant deal with bed bug infestations anymore) Toured Hyde Square , Liv and Avalon Esterra Park, but Liv and Hyde Square - the property management seemed rude and unfriendly. Avalon Esterra Park - i see a lot of bad reviews on Yelp and not sure if i should be taking them seriously. People complain of crazy high move out charges. Do i have more options in the neighborhood? I am running out of time with corporate housing and could use a place sooner.

Try Arras apartment. Management is nice and polite. Been living here for an year and renewing my lease for 1 more.

Dude ... just checked yelp and the rating seems poor . There are also reviews from like .. 3 days ago .. which are bad .

It’ll be almost impossible to find apartments with good ratings. You’ve got to know that the only people who write reviews are the people who had some problem. A majority of the people who have had a good experience don’t have any incentive to write a review. If you like the apartment, just go for it.

“It’ll be almost impossible to find apartments with good ratings. “ - is that the case usually with the newer Redmond apartments? I know of plenty downtown Seattle apartments with great ratings. Wonder why the options are so limited - close to Msft

I had bed bugs in the former Archstone on NE 40th St and 156th ave - this is the closest apartment complex to the campus. Your best bet is one of the brand new complexes in downtown Redmond. All the complexes close to campus are old, with lazy maintenance and some tenants has questionable hygiene habits.

This helps! Thanks ., I was even zooming in on Google Maps to see if I was missing out considering any apartment communities , but looks like I gotta pick the better of the evil .

I live in Station House, it’s a brand new apartment that just opened a year ago. I’m the first tenant in my apartment. Nice building and friendly staff, no real complaints so far.

Guess there’s some ongoing construction adjacent to it ? Does it bother you ?

Microsoft tobyps Dec 28, 2019

I’m on the side facing away from the site so I can’t really say how bothersome it is, but it seems like most major construction is already completed.

Ava Esterra is decent. Brand new. Close to campus. Quiet-ish.
