Can't believe this thing happened in a developed country in 2024. The noise in the morning by blowers and garbage collection is quite annoying. No remote key fob for the main gate.

Review update: if Tuesdays are your day off, or if you work from home, you might want to rethink…read moreyour day off or the complex. Tuesdays are lawn maintenance day. Instead of doing each courtyard area individually the lawn team comes by with a leaf blower, then a weed whacker, then a lawnmower and then another leaf blower over the course of 4-5 hours. All the used equipment is gas powered, so not only is the noise bothersome but the fumes come in as well. Would be better if they did each area individually so tenants could close windows only once, especially during the summer when it's too warm to keep them closed.

My spouse and I have lived here for almost four years and it has been an incredible place to live…read more We have had very few problems, but whenever something comes up, the management deals with it quickly and completely. Our washer started leaking water last year and we had a new one installed the next day. They always follow up to make sure that everything is okay and really encourage open communication. They keep up the grounds and common space so beautifully and communicate clearly and with lots of notice about anything that's happening around the complex. It's a really quiet, kind group of people who we are lucky to call neighbors. Also, we are a queer couple-- we toured three other places in Issaquah and this was the only one where the person giving us a tour didn't say something weird. Piia is the absolute best and we are so grateful for her!

You can tell a lot of thought was put into it, and I loved how responsive and knowledgable the property management was too...felt very comfortable talking to them and felt there was a great value in the size of the rooms, location, and amenities like the fitness center that is HUGE and had plenty bikes and machines so it's not awkward in the morning when that one person hogs the elliptical for an hour (my current situation - I see you Susan) Also, as a woman, security is very important to me and I was very excited that a luxury complex was going in this neighborhood compared to the tiny little places downtown that lack privacy and space in general.

Free cookies are a nice touch. ------------------------------------------------------------ Bad ------------------------------------------------------------ Price People will have differing opinions here, so I understand some people will see $$$ not the same. Yes the prices are going up everywhere, and I understand business are trying to get the most dollar of profit possible. The next reason is why I feel the price doesn't match. Safety There has been multiple theft issues here, from packages taken, to cars being broken into, and to top it off, tenants that leave common doors propped open for anyone from the outside to get into. Anyone can walk into the building and there is no one checking them. This and the price was why I decided to leave. I honestly didn't feel like my security and safety were taken seriously.

The overall hygiene of the property is very poor. There is frequently dog waste left in the middle of walkways, and the problem is especially bad around Building C. The entrance often has a strong smell of dog urine and feces, and the stairs frequently have dog urine as well. It is extremely unpleasant and difficult to tolerate, especially when this is something residents have to deal with almost every day when entering or leaving the building. I have reported this issue to the Leasing Office multiple times over the past two years, but they have not taken meaningful action. The problem continues, and it feels like resident complaints are simply ignored. For the amount of rent residents pay, basic cleanliness and property management should be expected. Very disappointing management and poor living environment.

One of the worst experiences that I've had since living there was last year they needed to do some maintenance in the parking garage. So what did they force ALL of their tenants in towers 1 and 2, to do? They forced everyone to pay for their own parking, off site, for a whole month. That's right, they made ALL of the tenants who lived there, to not only pay for their own parking for a whole month, they also made everyone park off site, and make their own arrangements to do so. We've had water floods from the above unit three times. I want to give more information, but my blood is boiling over just thinking about this situation all over again. We had a balcony as well, and the units above would constantly toss their trash, food, and cigarette butts onto our balcony. Management wouldn't really do anything about it. Most of the concierge there are friendly, in fact very much so. But one or two of them have been very nasty. One of the very nasty ones, thankfully no longer works there. At any rate, I'm through with this place. Wife and I wanted to buy a unit there, but no way in hell we'd ever even consider it again. Stay away.....far away. -j

Parking situation for Guests is incredibly bad and probably the worst one among other Condominiums…read morein Bellevue Downtown. The condominium has two parking Garages: Retail Parking: WA Square validate parking only up to four hours for your guests. Guests who come to your place and stay more than four hours, have to pay parking at an hourly rate or find street parking. WA Square did have overnight parking passes (although limited in amount), however the management decided to stop that program starting from January 2013. WA square overlooked parking situation for your guests (as opposed to what is stated on their official website) and they aggravated the guests parking situation by their decision to discontinue the overnight parking passes program. Garage with limited spots where guests can stay only for four hours: Guests who stay there more than four hours will have their car towed. They will not get a ticket, nor a warning, but something along the lines of 500 $ bill of towing charges. That actually happened to one of my guests.
