I've never had such fast maintenance in a complex. -Very safe. I have never felt unsafe coming home late at night, or have had any strange encounters with other residents. My car has had no damage done to it, I always felt okay leaving it parked. -No surprises. There were no hidden fees or anything of that sort. Neighbors were respectful. -Overall a great experience! The bad: -Parking can be challenging. We ended up having to pay $25 more for another spot a month because the visitor parking is not always guaranteed. -Small Apartments. Pretty cozy in these apartments! But you get what you pay for. -Meh appliances. Kind of cheap W/D, shelf in kitchen broke, handle on bathroom mirror fell off. Maintenance was always very responsive in these situations though, so I can't really say it was too bad. And again... you get what you pay for, and we had a cheaper unit. -Children can be loud. Overall they are sweet and respectful kids, just be aware if this is something that bothers you.

It is an older building but I stayed in a 1 bedroom and it was pretty spacious in the bedroom, living, and dining. The kitchen was a bit small. The unit was neat overall. Walls were painted, carpet cleaned (carpet everywhere except bathroom and kitchen) and appliances were clean. There's plenty of storage space. Walls are thick bc I never heard my neighbors. No laundry in the unit but there is one on every floor. A key is needed to enter the room. The hallway would smell from time to time. I think it was from people's dinner? Although it is along a main road in Seatac, I felt pretty safe. The grounds were cleaned every Wednesday. It's close to the airport and the light rail and that made me think I would always hear them. However, when I was inside I couldn't hear it. Maybe I did when I had my windows open but for the most part, the community is quiet. We were assigned our own parking spot with no additional cost. One thing I didn't like was the visitor parking. There was about 4 spots AND there's no street parking. I had to tell my guests to park across the street at the post office. It's a good thing my guests came at night bc the post office won't let visitors park during business hours. There's a swimming pool, bbq area, and basketball court. I never used them but it was good to them it there if I wanted to.

The building we moved into was new but all buildings and yards are maintained regularly and with high standards. Maintenance has only been needed a few times but the response time was usually within hours! The office has been extremely easy to deal with. Nice personnel!!!! I put multiple exclamations marks because ALL office managers/workers seem truly interested in what they can do to make our stay comfortable and nice. Jay and Bridgette are the two on staff right now and I like them a lot! There is a small gym downstairs filled with modern, very expensive equipment. It has been a life saver for me since I am in a wheelchair and can't do much walking (recumbent bicycle is my go to!) There is a modern elevator which is also perfect for those with mobility problems and sure does help a lot when moving in! It's quiet here--for an apartment complex. I know there are children, but we just don't hear them. Friday night brings visitors, of course, so it gets a little louder but usually everyone respects the legal quiet time -- almost always! I am older, so this is helpful for us old folks. Negatives: Parking is the only thing I struggle with. And it seems to be the only thing most of my neighbors struggle with. I'm handicapped and quite often have to deal with autos taking over the handicapped spots with no placard. (And the usual "I'm gonna use my grandma's placard and park close because it's convenient" even when we NEVER see a handicapped person occupy that auto is prevalent here just as it is in shopping centers.) Unfortunate but I don't have an answer. Weekends we fill up quickly with guests--but what can I say? That's it for now. If you come here, I am a good neighbor to have.

If she believes that we cannot offer them something they need, she will help them find another place to go instead. That shows miles of integrity, to me. Our residents touch my life on a daily basis. I can come in to work with an empty cup and leave overflowing. You just feel good when you walk in the doors. There is something in the air here.

Another review I strongly suggest when viewing or considering renting here at Aspen really ask…read morequestions to the leasing agents. Don't let them tell you anything. If you have neighbors living above you make sure to inquire if kids live in the unit. It's not agains the law to ask about the property, tenants and noise complaints. A Friend of mine you is currently staying there and having issues with the neighbors above in B202 is a joke. Again the leasing agent does not care, or the management of the buildings that are owned by Aspen. They keep telling him the noise that is going on is normal day to day noise. I have so many videos taken over the weekend two that started at 8:30 am and the rest were all day dragging heavy whatever it was and toddlers running all day. It's crazy. I believe in apartment etiquitte becasue we all pay rent to live a comfortable living when renting. I feel like apartment complexes need to rent units out to familys with kids on the bottom floor period it's rude and disrespectful. With this being said Be aware of building B they been renting that unit for 6 years and with kids you should be looking for a single family home so you can make all the noise you want. Aspen at Belevedre do better. Your property is nice. I seen another review with complaints of break in or stolen cars. I will say in the summer time put your car in the garage as the kids play. Oh and the kids also know how to get into the garages and again the office will take forever to address. the only way you can say anythig about your property you will have to catch them.

I text again at 1:51pm about an ETA because we need the sink to make meals for a family of 5. They texted back at 1:52pm that it's still in progress and they'll get to it as soon as possible. It's not 5:04pm and still no one has came, so I text them again 5:040pm to ask what's going on. Their response again is it's in progress. So I call the leasing office and speak with Arthur who says the maintenance manager leaves at 5:30pm and so I let him know so it's 5:18pm he's still here somewhere then, and this needs to be fixed. He puts me on hold to call him, and says he says it's not an emergency and they'll be here tomorrow morning. So I asked for a number to speak with him and he says he's not at work. Makes no sense! It's still before 5:30pm. A sink full of water that smells like sewer and more water is coming out of the drain filling the sink even more is not an emergency and has to sit here til they come back tomorrow! My home stinks like sewer. I have kids. All our windows are open and it's cold. Our heater still hasn't been fixed since we've moved in so we've been using a space heater. It's frustrating! They escalated it to the emergency maintenance and I still have no help. This is not my first experience with maintenance. For the amount of money we pay we would love to live in a space where everything is working properly!

The pictures were accurate and it was very clean and mostly remodeled inside. We were very happy to have found this apartment as it fit our needs very well. The gated area makes it feel very private and it is quiet with a view outside. The tenants were 90% the same ones the whole time so are long term and all were very friendly and quiet. We hadn't lived in an apartment before (always had houses) so we were glad our first experience was a good one. The neighborhood right outside the gate leaves a lot to be desired (reason for 1 less star) but less then 10 min away is the Southcenter mall area which is nice and has all you need. For our dog there was a grass area in the common area within the gated area that was perfect for her. The laundry facilities were good, no issues there and weren't too high priced either. The staff was quick to respond to anything we needed and cared about us enjoying our stay. Finding a furnished apartment at this price was hard to find so we were very satisfied. We would recommend it to someone in a similar situation as us or even for a longer time would be fine.

I feel compelled to write this review for a couple of reasons: First, because of the very pleasant…read morestay we had from March to June of 2014 while visiting from Canada, and second because of the disparaging and untrue remarks left in a previous post: Let me start by saying that Tukwila is not Bellvue, and unless you want to pay three times the price for a fully furnished apartment then you've found the right place. About ten blocks from Sunrise Suites is a very ethnically diverse area, full of small shops from countries all over the world, which I frequented regularly and never felt uncomfortable or out of place. A few blocks in the other direction is the new Deptartment of Homeland Security office, Boeing headquarters, and you are also close to Microsoft and the airport ( a large number of the tenants in Sunrise are people who work at those companies). By car you are about ten minutes from Tukwila mall, that has anything and everything you could possibly want. From Chipotles, to Macy's, Teavana, Starbucks, Target, banks, to upscale ( and awesome ) sushi, Thai food, the movies, and pretty much anything you can think of. You are close to the Tukwila train station that will take you to Seattle central in about 25 minutes for $3.50 each way, or you can drive into the city in about 15 mins during off-peak hours. Our apartment was just like the photos, and the service was beyond our expectations. One thing a previous poster mentioned is that Sherry and her family are very charming -- This is absolutely true! And if you are fortunate enough to deal with this family I can tell you that you will instantly notice that the charm comes from a true, honest -- and actually a very loving place -- in terms of the desire to provide you with good value for your money while staying there. For the price, location and quality, I honestly don't think you could do much better. It's worth booking an appointment to check it out and decide for yourself. If you have any questions about my experience while staying there please feel free to contact me and I would be more than happy to respond. Best Regards, Shawn Phillips stphillips1969@gmail.com
