Not a bad place

This was my first place out of college and I've been here for three years. 1. Parking: There is garage parking available for $75/month but everytime I would drive down there my honda accord would bottom out. There are two outdoor parking spots that are never available and you have to wait for more than just a few months to add them. I can ususally find street parking within five blocks of the apartment but sometimes I have to drive around for awhile to find it. My car has been stolen once, broken into another time, and then towed when a no-parking sign was put up after I had parked. I highly recommed getting a "Club" for your car. 2. Noise: I have never ever had any noise issues. Given, I live on the top floor, but I rarely hear my neighbors, and I can never hear the traffic from the main road which is only one block away. 3. Grounds: The building is always kept very nice and clean. I've never had a problem. And, the surrounding buildings are beautiful. 4. Safety: I've always felt very safe walking around my neighborhood at night. The building is also very secure. 5. Construction: My apartment hasn't been revonated probably since the seventies. I guess that gives it charm, but the kitchen could definitely use new cabinets. 6. Maintenence: I rarely have any issues and when I do they are resolved immediately. There was one time 18 months ago when the water heater for the building broke and I had cold showers for a week. I called the management company expecting some sort of compensation. That was useless. 7. Staff: Jim, the building manager, is fantastic. He is so friendly and helpful, really a great guy. If you ever have to interact with the management company, don't expect much. They are not very friendly and I think the term customer service is completely void from their vocabulary. 8. Overall: I liked living here. The place has character, and I mean that in a good way. I love the neighborhood. Queen Anne is a great place!! I'm leaving because I've taken a job on the east side. Things that I will look for in the next place that Hillcrest Manor didn't have include a dishwasher and a washer and dryer in-unit.
