The Avandale Apartments

Verified by N49

I have a house nearby, and a friend of mine lives here. Every time that I come and visit her during office hours, I feel so welcome. The staff says hello and remembers my name. I recommend to all my friends who rent that they should live here, it's clean and the people who work here are very kind. Can't beat the location!

The Avandale is easily my favorite place I’ve lived.
The location is perfect; everything I need is in walking distance. The staff are incredible. I love that there is always somebody on-site during the week. Jenna has been so wonderful and helpful in my time here. Another major perk is that they’re super pet friendly. If my dog could leave reviews, she would be giving it five stars, too. 🐶 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The location is perfect; everything I need is in walking distance. The staff are AMAZING! I love that there is always somebody on-site during the week. Jenna has become a close friend of mine in my time living here! Another major perk is that they’re super pet friendly. If my dog could leave reviews, she would be giving it five stars, too.

Avandale staff are responsive and helpful. My unit is well designed, functional, and comfortable.

The shared spaces are excellent, cozy, and accessible. I will say it's a tiny bit of a shame we can't turn off the motion-activated lights for movie nights though.

This fairly new building is in an amazing location with many nearby shops/cafes/restaurants all within walking distance. The building is well maintained and clean. I moved in this past August from NY and the building Manager , Jenna was so helpful and patient, she helped me every step of the way...she's pleasant, polite and professional, made my difficult move go smoothly. Zach, our maintenance manager is great, always willing to help out. I'm loving it here.

The Avandale was my home for a little over a year and I absolutely loved it. The apartment building is the perfect size so that you don’t feel like you’re living in a hotel, and the location is amazing. So many great restaurants, coffee shops, and patios in walking distance. The indoor heated garage is a must for Minnesota winters. Highly recommend!

This is a new build. Clean. Good location.

But several of the reviews below are either false or made-up. For example, the Eatmon's own the property management company (Sail LLC) that runs this place. So you should probably disregard all of their reviews below.

Also like a lot of other new builds these days - the avandale looks pretty, but feels like a paper mache building. Every time a heavy-laden bus or truck drives by Selby Ave, my apartment shakes as if there's a mini earthquake.

To make things worse, the property manager Jenna is the absolute worst - super rude. She should find a non-client facing role. That would suit her personality better.

Edit after owner's response:

I am a current resident. As for Jenna, she has been nothing but terrible and rude. She is simply not cut out for the job. Zach and Melissa however are amazing.

As for the building tremors, they're very real. Try sitting in one of the apartments when Bus 21 drives by selby ave. You'll know exactly what I mean about the apartment tremors every hour of the day.

This is my honest review to future and current residents. They can take it or leave it. Thanks.

Living so close to Mississippi Market has been so nice, and being able to walk to restaurants and local coffee shops is so cozy. Beautifully maintained building and warm, helpful staff! Love it here.

I loved my time living here. It's my third apartment in the area ... and by far the best. The location is great! As others have said ... so much within walking distance, and so easy onto 94. Everything is top class ... clean, quiet and comfortable. But what sets Avandale apart .... the people. Jenna and Zac have been amazing to work with ... as well as the rest of the group. Thank you for a great year ... gonna miss you guys!

Had a quick tour and Jenna was so welcoming and friendly. My partner and I wanted to see any available rooms and the common areas and Jenna was extremely understanding of our situation. we weren’t looking to move in until May but she was willing to show us a tour and talk about the apartment. We love that it’s a small luxury apartment and we also like the fact it’s next door to our fav restaurant “mango Thai” and around the corner is Marc heu pastries. Lots of walking around to stores and cafes nearby. We can’t wait to see what’s available in March!
