Resident satisfaction is one of our top priorities, which is why we love hearing from those who are happy to call our communities “home.” Check out this 5-star review for Avalon Belltown Towers in Seattle, WA: “This is my first apartment since graduating college, and the transition to a new city has been incredibly smooth thanks to the amazing team here. They've gone above and beyond, providing recommendations on local food spots, attractions, and being an invaluable resource overall. With the help of the on-site team, my roommate and I found a fantastic unit that truly feels like home. We're thoroughly impressed and have no intention of leaving anytime soon. Highly recommend!”
