King Avenue Apartments

No central air, maintenance isnt 24/7 or at least when my heat went out they didnt come to fix it on the weekend waited until Monday. Also the studio is more like an efficiency.

I am a former resident, lived at king ave apartments for 2 years. It was what I could afford and easy location after having just graduated from OSU. But it is easy to outgrow this place very quickly. On June 6, 2017 we had firefighters evacuate the whole building due to some type of high gas or carbon monoxide reading. I think it was coming from the washer/dryer area, whatever it was. But the worst part of the whole ordeal was that the company sent absolutely no communication to us to explain what just happened and assure us things would be ok moving forward. But they were always quick to send mass emails to let us know our cars would be towed if we parked in certain spots of what was already a cramped/limited parking situation. When I was there they were attempting to upgrade all the apartments and often times their contractors would take up parking spaces/block entrances and stay late in the night working loudly. You move here for the location, there really are no other benefits. If they were to ever raise their rents it would be time to reconsider finding a better quality apartment.

The parking is getting to be a critical issue. Larger vehicles are making it increasingly difficult to park without scratches and dents to the vehicle. There have been incidences when I had to back out of the lot because there was not space to proceed forward to the street.

It was a quiet, well kept safe environment!

Apartment is just blocks away from downtown Grandview and less than a 5 minute walk to Kroger. Rent is relatively cheap compared to other apartments on the block, but it is central. Parking is included with the rent.
