Rise on Sixty-Seventh, Seattle: A Decision Review
Rise on Sixty-Seventh is a student housing property located in Seattle’s Roosevelt neighborhood, near the University of Washington campus. It offers studio and apartment-style units at an indicative monthly range of $1,050–$1,550 (confirm with the operator). The property opened minimum leases of 3 months, with earliest move-in from July 6, 2026. On Google it holds a 3.5-star rating from 58 reviews. This review draws on those reviews, the property’s pricing relative to the city-wide floor, and room-type considerations to help you decide if it fits your needs.
Who This Residence Suits – and Who It Doesn’t
Suits: students who need a quick, last-minute move-in. Two of the three published reviews explicitly mention urgent situations. Michelle Lee writes that she “urgently needed a place to live” and the leasing manager helped her find a unit and process paperwork fast. If you are arriving in Seattle on short notice or your previous housing fell through, the on-site team appears responsive and efficient.
Suits: students who value attentive management. The same reviewer and Chandana GP both praise the apartment manager, Jeremiah, for quick responses and smooth move-in/out processes. Chandana GP notes: “He was always quick to respond and efficient in resolving any questions or concerns I had.” For someone who prefers direct communication and minimal bureaucracy, this can be a strong point.
Suits: budget-conscious students who can accept a compact studio. The lower end of the price range ($1,050) is above the Seattle city-wide from-price of $704 for student housing, but it still sits in a moderate tier. Studios at the lower end are likely small but functional – suitable for one person who does not need much extra space.
Does not suit: anyone who prioritises generous living space. Ben Iserman gives a 3-star review and warns: “Make sure to carefully look at the floorplan for your room, mine was small, like cannot fit EITHER a desk or a bed small.” That is a serious constraint. If you need room for a desk and a full-size bed, you must verify the specific floorplan. The property offers studio and apartment units; apartments likely have more square footage, but at a higher price.
Does not suit: those who require flawless maintenance. The same reviewer notes that “the lock was a bit finicky” and “the trash room often piled up.” While not deal-breaking for everyone, it suggests building management may not be perfect. If you are particularly sensitive to small inconveniences (sticky locks, trash overflow), you might want to consider a newer or more tightly managed building.
Does not suit: students who rely on campus housing all-inclusive pricing. Rise on Sixty-Seventh does not include all utilities or amenities in the advertised price – you should confirm exactly what is covered (electricity, water, internet) with the operator. The price range is monthly rent only; any extras could push your actual cost higher.
What Residents Actually Say (Quoted Reviews)
Three Google reviews provide a snapshot of real experiences. Here they are verbatim (with minor cuts for length in the original, but reproduced as given in the data):
Chandana GP (5 stars):
“I had a great experience working with Jeremiah as my apartment manager. He was always quick to respond and efficient in resolving any questions or concerns I had. Both the move-in and move-out processes were smooth and well-organized thanks to his support. I truly appreciate his professionalism and helpful attitude thr”
Michelle Lee (5 stars):
“A couple months ago, I urgently needed a place to live so everything was pretty las minute but thankfully, I was able to find this place, and Jeremiah helped a lot to find a unit and quickly process all the paperwork. The place itself is great! It’s not a huge space, but it has everything you need and enough room for t”
Ben Iserman (3 stars):
“This place was fine, you get what you paid for. Make sure to carefully look at the floorplan for your room, mine was small, like cannot fit EITHER a desk or a bed small. That’s mostly due to my floorplan though, other people had better rooms. The lock was a bit finicky but worked fine, the trash room often piled up”
Key takeaways from the reviews:
- Management quality is consistently praised (Jeremiah).
- The unit size is a major variable: you can get a very small room or a decent one depending on the floorplan.
- The building is not luxurious; it is “you get what you paid for.”
- Urgent move-ins are handled well.
The positive reviews (5 stars) come from people who had direct support from the manager. The neutral review (3 stars) focuses on the physical unit shortcomings. This suggests that if you can secure a good floorplan and have a smooth move-in, your experience will be positive; if you end up in a tiny room, you may be disappointed.
Price Positioning vs. the City From-Price
Seattle’s student housing market has a minimum price of $704 per month (indicative from the dataset, across 36 properties listed on the platform). Rise on Sixty-Seventh starts at $1,050 – about 49% higher than the city floor. Properties at the $704 level are typically shared rooms or very basic buildings. Rise on Sixty-Seventh sits in the middle of the market: it is not cheap, but it is not top-tier either. The maximum price of $1,550 puts it close to the upper-mid range for student housing in Seattle.
For reference, a one-bedroom or private studio in central University District often ranges $1,300–$1,800. At $1,050–$1,550, Rise on Sixty-Seventh offers a moderate price point. However, note that this property is located a bit north of the main UW campus (Roosevelt area), which may be slightly quieter but still walkable or a short bus ride. If you are willing to commute a little further, you might find cheaper rooms in other buildings. Conversely, if you value proximity to light rail (Roosevelt station is nearby) and want a newer building, this property’s price may be justified.
Room-type guidance:
- Studio: Likely the cheapest option, but floorplans vary. As Ben Iserman’s review indicates, some studios are extremely small. Ask the operator for the exact square footage and whether the unit can accommodate a desk and a twin/full bed. If you only need a sleeping pod, a small studio could work.
- Apartment: The term “apartment” could mean a one-bedroom or a shared two-bedroom. Since the property advertises “studio, apartment,” the apartment type is larger and more expensive. If you need a separate bedroom or roommates, this is the better choice. Expect to pay at least $1,300–$1,550 for a decent one-bedroom.
- Check lease duration: Minimum lease is 3 months, which is shorter than many student leases (usually 12 months). Good for summer housing or semester-only stays.
- Availability: Earliest move-in is July 6, 2026, which aligns with summer session or fall move-in for the 2026/27 academic year.
Booking Timing
Given the property’s earliest availability in July 2026, you should start inquiries now (early 2026) for a fall 2026 lease. Student housing in Seattle fills up quickly, especially for popular buildings near UW. The fact that this property has 58 reviews suggests it is a known quantity; units may go fast.
Because the lease can be as short as 3 months, it is also suitable for a summer sublet or transitional housing while you look for a permanent place. If you plan to stay for a full academic year (September to June), confirm that you can renew or extend after 12 months.
The reviews indicate that the management handles last-minute requests effectively, so if you are flexible and can make a quick decision, you may still find availability later in the summer. However, for the best selection of floorplans (to avoid the “tiny room” problem), aim to book at least 2–3 months before your move-in date.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum lease length and can I renew?
The property states a minimum lease of 3 months. You should confirm with the operator whether you can renew month-to-month after the initial term, and whether there are any renewal discounts or penalties.
Does the unit come furnished? What utilities are included?
The data does not specify furnishing or utility inclusion. From the review context, it appears that units are unfurnished or partially furnished at best (the reviewer mentions needing to fit a desk). You must ask the operator directly: are beds, desks, chairs provided? Which utilities (electricity, water, gas, internet) are included in the rent? Many student housing properties in Seattle charge separately for electricity or require tenant-paid internet.
How far is it from University of Washington?
The address is Seattle, WA 98115 (Roosevelt). The property is roughly 1.5 miles from the UW main campus – a 30-minute walk, 10-minute bike, or 10-minute bus ride. The Roosevelt light rail station is nearby, giving you direct access to downtown Seattle and Capitol Hill. Check the exact distance from your building entrance to your classes using a map.
