I'd say look elsewhere... the landlord responds very rarely, even for time sensitive topics. The building is infested with roaches and they aren't making any real attempts to fix the issue. Since the kitchen cabinets all have holes behind them, they become a massive problemā€¦Ā See More >

    I have lived here for the last year while working at a hospital on First Hill. I love my apartment. Any time I had a maintenance problem, management was very responsive. The neighbors are nice, mostly keep to themselves but were always friendly. Great livingā€¦Ā See More >

          ABSOLUTELY would not recommend this place. They are completely incapable of fixing things that need fixed, or in our case, things that were supposed to be fixed BEFORE we moved in. We've been waiting 3 months for them to fix our problems-which isn't surprisingā€¦Ā See More >

            I moved to Seattle in a rush for a job and was laid off in a hurry (10 months later) as well. Both getting in to the John Alden and getting out was as painless as possible. Note: we have a half-pitbull who no oneā€¦Ā See More >

              I LOVE it here. I have lived here for three years almost and have only had a couple of issues. First of all, it is very quiet aside from a party once or twice a month. I rarely hear street noise, but that is becauseā€¦Ā See More >

                The John Alden is an older building, and it's beautiful and I love the quirky vintage-ness of my apartment. I have a 1-bdrm and it's not cheap, but I love it. The living room and the kitchen in my apartment are big but the bedroomā€¦Ā See More >

                    I have lived in the John Alden for over three years. As a transplant from southern CA, I have never felt so welcomed. Management here has always been more than helpful and accessable. I couldn't reccomend this place more.ā€¦Ā See More >

                          I've lived here for about a year now and I really like the older style building. I have a studio but the closet is big enough to be a small bedroom which is awesome. I rented because I really wanted hardwood floors and crown molding,ā€¦Ā See More >
