The Alden

Parking, parking, parking. If you have more than one car, good luck. Absolutely zero parking for your second car unless you get off work around 2pm. Otherwise, you’ll find that the management expect you to park a mile away (Fred Meyer) or in another complex, or in the neighborhood a half mile away on the street. Completely not worth living here just for that reason.

I have lived at Alden for nearly a year and I have had an absolute pleasure, living here. Gigi has been the most personal, caring Manager that I have ever encountered. She has gone beyond and above to give me and my wife, the upmost progressional experience. I am comfortable to say, I see my family living at The Alden for many years to come.

These apartments have everything you could possibly need nearby. Coffee, shopping, Salons, Gyms, Sports clubs, post office, apparel stores, fast food, 15 minutes from Portland, 24 hour emergency vet 2 min away for pet lovers, ER/clinics right down the road, parks, trails, bus stops everywhere for max riders. You get one parking spot for each apartment but they offer garages and have two parking lots so worst case scenario you have to walk a little if you have an extra car and need to utilize visitor parking. We only have one car and life here has been easy for us. There’s a dog park and playground in the complex and a nice trail we walk our dog on. If someone parks in your reserved spot you can have them towed. Maintenance is always extremely quick and understanding when issues arise. Lance is great and is the only part of the office staff I have really dealt with. The apartments have all amenities such as W/D & dishwasher. UPDATE: Valet trash services the last few months have been really difficult to put up with. Sometimes they leave our trash on stairs and we have to bring it back up. They are also rude. Reducing a star due to valet.

DO NOT RENT HERE. From day one we had nothing but issues, we were lied to and mislead by the lady that showed us the apartment, we asked multiple times if the price included water/sewer/trash. We were reassured each time that those were included in the price of $1150, turns out that wasn't true. Of course had they provided me with the paper rental agreement I requested multiple times I would have seen that, but I was forced to sign an electronic lease I couldn't read because the font was so small. Our recently "updated" apartment was so shoddy that cabinet doors fell off, the tub would clog weekly (it happened so much the maintenance guy left tools so I wouldn't have to wait on him). We once went almost 2 days before they made it to fix our broken toilet in a one bathroom apartment. The washer broke multiple times, one time they left it full of water for almost a week before they fixed it, of course I had to personally go to the office and demand they come fix it since the whole apartment started to smell like moldy water. The belt in the dryer started to squeak extremely loudly and they told me to "just deal with it" since it still worked, I only got them to fix it after harassing them and showing a video where you could hear the dryer from the parking lot. No one cleans up after their dogs, even in the dog park area, making it unusable. The water heater broke and their "fix" was to turn the temp down so the hot water would last longer, it didn't help and they never got around to replacing it before we moved. Aside from all of that, the property manager Lance Millet was extremely combative and argumentive anytime I brought anything to his attention, he absolutely has to be right and will argue himself in circles. He's also very deceptive and shady, I wouldn't trust a word that comes out of his mouth. They can't seem to keep anyone around for more than a couple months to work in the front office, I'm assuming they all quit because of Lance's behavior as a boss. I've never had such a bad experience with a property manager in my life. Overall, this was a the worst experience I've ever had at an apartment, upon move out we left the place spotless and they still only want to give us $300 out of a $1400 deposit. Also trying to get anyone from their corporate office to return your call is impossible. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Do yourself a favor and stay far, far, far away from this place.
