Boardwalk Apartments

I am currently a Boardwalk resident in Olympia Washington. I want to comment on the Management Team at Boardwalk in Olympia. The management staff are simply amazing in their efforts to make this community the best it can be. The management staff are examples of people that go the extra mile to make Boardwalk a vibrant and safe community. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication. Dean

What I like the best about Boardwalk Apartments is they were super quick and very efficient and really helpful with my mom, with getting all of her documents that she needed together. The gal that runs the place is nice. I know it has a courtyard. Other than that, I don't know the other facilities. It's near restaurants and about five miles away from a hospital. The apartments are not very big. They're small.

My sister-in-law is in Boardwalk Apartments. The rooms are small, but it's affordable. It's a beautiful location. I didn't deal with the staff too much. They had a potluck, bingo, and a crafts show. The day that we were there, they had a costume contest. They were really busy. The only thing was that the trash was across the street. There are two sets of apartments, one more of an Alzheimer's wing, which is not that bad. The other one is more independent living and she's in the independent living and you have to walk across the street to get to the other place. They have a small courtyard. There's a hotel across the street and that's a nice thing for people having visitors.

The Management and Maintenance Team are not like your usual team. They have such an amazing energy working together that with any interaction with any of them is fantastic. They truly care and work hard to keep the community going. Many get confused with independent living and assisted, I have witnessed family members expecting the same level care as assisted and being down right disrespectful towards they staff, yet they continue to smile and help. Don't know how they do it. They are the unsung hero's where my mom lives. My mom absolutely loves it here, she had friends, activities to do and just knowing that the staff are here and care. They do have challenges with the homeless with the location being across the street from the mission and food bank, but once again these are not issues caused by management. They work hard to keep the residents safe but we also need to remember that our government has made it so difficult for landlords to do their job as fast as the residents would like.

There are many decent, friendly neighbors here. But morale in the building is currently very low. There is a large homeless population in the immediate vicinity and friction between the homeless and the elderly residents is high. The building has locked outer doors needing a key card, but that doesn't keep the homeless out. There are drugs and weapons coming into the building in the guise of so-called "family members" and "caregivers". Management seems powerless to keep them out. All of the residents are elderly and most have health issues. We are intimidated by "family members" who have moved in and are living here rent-free. Police are called on a regular basis because of violence in several of the apartments. It doesn't appear that management makes any effort to screen new tenants. There are good people here. They deserve better.

What I like about Boardwalk Apartments is there's a lot of freedom. The staff is pretty good and if there's any maintenance that needs to be done, they do it right away. There's a courtyard if you're on the first floor and it's close to the bus transit. There are several bars and restaurants around, too. I just don't like the way the building is laid out, but that's not something they can do anything about it.
