Aug 2019: Go to the bottom for a quick summary.
The Station is not without faults, but it is absolutely fantastic overall. I paid ~$600 a month to share a bedroom in a 2-bedroom apartment (currently listed as "The Two 3" on their website). That's pricey, but it's worth every penny. The location is the best you can get, service is excellent, and the apartments are stylish, well laid-out, and comfortable.
Since it has been mentioned in other reviews: We had an issue with a homeless guy sneaking into the lobby and smoking(!) there. They hired a security company to monitor the lobby at night. Never had a problem again.
The maintenance guy at The Station is outstanding. He is friendly, and he gets the job done right the first time. That alone is worth the difference in price between The Station and cheaper student apartments.
The office's hours are reasonable, and they respond to emails quickly. The online resident portal is a bit clunky- just make sure you give yourself a bit of time to get everything set up Review from Google
Jun 2019: really like the location and the shared bedrooms are so cute and cozy. I like the living with with a tv and microwave. Nichole is really nice to talk with about apartment lease. Recommend if you want to save some money in the fall. Work with you so you feel comfortable getting work request and help. Come here instead, it is better suited for your needs and near the lightrail. Review from GoogleJun 2019: really like the location and the shared bedrooms are so cute and cozy.

Jun 2019: Homeless people sleeping in the lobby. My car was broken into and i had to argue with the executive property manger, or something like that, to see security footage. I HIGHLY RECOMEND LOOKIG ELSEWHERE FOR RESDIENCY. Review from Google

I HIGHLY RECOMEND LOOKIG ELSEWHERE FOR RESDIENCY. Review from GoogleMay 2019: Great staff, apartment, and location. Very prompt responses and effective solutions to any potential maintenance problems you may encounter (which is unlikely, in the first place.) For example, Greg in maintenance is always willing to go the extra mile, and has a ready solution to any problem, even outside of work hours. Highly recommend! Review from GoogleFeb 2019: I would give 0 if there is such an option due to the following reasons:
1) Station is right next to a much taller apartment complex Hub, which means the view and sunlight are completely blocked for one side of Station. Unfortunately, my room is on this particular side of Station. The two buildings are so close to each other that my room is almost completely dark in daytime. However, when I signed the lease with Station, Station did not inform me of this situation and charged me the same rent as that of my roommate, whose room faced toward the Graduate Hotel without the blocking from Hub. After moving in, Station refused to negotiate about the rent and lied to me that they charged me less than my roommate. They also kindly suggested that if I wanted to feel the sunlight, I could simply sit in the living room.
2) The management tried their bes Review from Google

Oct 2018: I lived there for 3 years. The apartments are well furnished and designed. It comes fully furnished with even the TV and cable boxes. The internet, water, etc are all included except the gas and electricity. Their staff was usually helpful and respectful. Never had any problems. Their amenities are good, including a computer room, printer, study areas, gym, tanning room, but they don't have a game room or a theater room, unlike other nearby buildings. The prices expensive but are in term with all the other similar buildings in the area. Review from GoogleOct 2018: I lived there for 3 years. The apartments are well furnished and designed.

I love this place, very convenient for any resident who goes to school at UMN or works near the University Campus! Review from GoogleAug 2018: I have lived here for a year. It is a great place to stay. All workers in office are very friendly and solved problems fast. If you have questions, it would be answered in a hour. Never got a package lost. It is very close to school, only 3mins or less walk time. Internet speed is fast. No problem with games. I love this place so much I would recommend it to everyone. Only one thing to pay attention. This place is not so safe after 11pm or 12am. You can find homeless in 1st floor during that time. Other than that I think this place is perfect. Review from GoogleJul 2018: The station on Washington has a great location directly on the light rail. A ton of great food and only a block away from campus. The ammenaties and the staff are excellent. They have many floor plans to choose from with or without a room mate!
I definitely enjoyed my time here and would reccomend this property to anyone looking for a clean and comfortable place to live! Review from GoogleApr 2018: The Station is such a wonderful place! Cydnee has been so kind and helpful. can't come up with enough words to fully encapsulate how awesome she is. Review from GoogleApr 2018: I would highly recommend the Station if you’re looking for somewhere to live! I’ve only ever had positive interactions with the office staff. I found Jill to be really helpful on numerous occasions! Review from GoogleApr 2018: Zach is the best leasing agent I have ever worked with! Highly recommend!! He made the experience SO enjoyable. Review from GoogleMar 2018: The property manager Cydnee is great! She is very welcoming and knows her stuff. Review from GoogleMar 2018: The buzzers are a nice addition as I can be buzzed up by friends and they do not have to come down. Great place and location! Review from GoogleMar 2018: Convenient location if you study at UMN. The building got its own little gym, 24/7 pharmacy (I use it as a convenience store). It is called "Station" for a reason, since it is located right next to the East Bank light rail station.
Reasonable rent cost, particularly considering the location of the building. Timely swift, responsive and effective maintenance services. No rodents or insects. The building is being kept immaculate. The staff is friendly and responsive to your inquires regarding the building experience. Review from GoogleMar 2018: I’ve both worked and lived at The Station on Washington and I can’t say how great of a community it is! All staff members are extremely kind, cheerful, and eager to help answer any question or resolve any problem that arises. As a student, the community itself as well as its location couldn’t be better- the building is safe, clean, and even has a great workout room! In addition, being close to campus and the metro saves me so much time- I love it here! Review from GoogleFeb 2018: I came to an event at the Station on Washington and really loved the views from the penthouse! The staff were super friendly! Thank you Tiffanie and Jill! Review from GoogleFeb 2018: Positives:
+ Close to the University (east bank campus)
+ Friendly staffs
+ Responsive to service requests (e.g., battery replacement)
Negatives:
- Hallways, garage, and elevators are very dirty (and often smelly) and they are barely cleaned
- Unless you're living on the top-most level, you can always hear your upstair neighbors stomping on your ceiling all the time
- They do not handle certain issues properly nor in a timely manner (e.g., noisy neighbors, smell of cigarettes throughout the building, your parking space is taken, etc.) Review from GoogleJan 2018: Cydnee works very hard at making sure staff are welcoming and accomadating to tenants. I am very impressed with her professsiinalism and well rounded skills. Review from GoogleJan 2018: I was looking for a place to live and Cydnee was very nice and helped me to find the perfect fit. Review from GoogleJan 2018: Cydnee is the literal best. I had some troubles finding a good room fit but she really took the time to help me out. Review from Google
