Sadly it seems there are a lot of bitter posts on here. As is usually the case in life people let one bad incident taint them and those are the people motivated to write posts. Alas I am here to give you the scoop on King Tower. What more could you want in an apartment' I'm a 5 minute walk from three grocery stores, Zupans, Fred Myers and Trader Joe's. There are three max stops within stumbling distance not to mention a handful of bus lines. They have a parking garage but I opted to try the street for like $30/year and have yet to spend more than 3 minutes to find a spot at any hour. As for the complex it's a diverse eclectic group of people, who always hold the elevator or the door for you. When I don't have time to make coffee in the morning I just fill up with the surprisingly high quality Joe made for me downstairs. When I feel like a breath of fresh air I head to the rooftop patio to take in the best city view in town. Occasionally even grill up a cut of salmon on the complimentary grills. Their recycling program is top notch for you greenies, and I can't say enough about the staff. I had to get the apartment while working abroad in the Philippines. No matter how many calls I made to poor Thomas he blew off my apologies and was glad to assist. And anytime I pop into the office I've never been let down. Great onsite storage, stuff gets fixed right away, security at night and a stones throw from downtown, 21st, 23rd or the Pearl. Location, reasonable rent and dependable service, and utilities included (one less worry).

Let me clarify then, if you want extremely nice cabinets, a top notch stove, and a swimming pool, move to Beaverton. But if you want one of the best locations in town...which, was 95% of what my review was about, then live in King Towers. But, as my quoting ex-neighbor points out, the cabinetry and quality of the fixtures is not exactly Four Seasons material.

Glad you seem to know why the people that give this place a poor review do so. I had numerous bad 'incidents' at King Tower and the quality of the place is crap.
