Commons at Sylvan Canyon Apartments

Living here has it's pros and cons. The pros? It's right off the highway, it's near downtown. The cons? A lot of the concerns that I and other residents have go unattended. Things such as: car break-ins, broken garage doors (that we pay upwards of $175 a month to park in), stolen parking spots, stolen packages, and what seems like new leasing agents every time you go into the office. The parking situation is absolutely atrocious, as unpaid spots are first come, first serve with the capacity for, at most, 15-20% of the tenants. Noise complaints often get completely swept under the rug, and almost every time I have arrived, my building smells like various types of smoke. Many of the apartments also have no direct sunlight, so if that is something you care about, don't move here. tldr: if yo

I lived at the Commons at Sylvan Canyon for two years in Building 4 after moving from out of state. I want to provide the most honest review possible for anyone considering this property. The property is incredibly quiet and offers an atmosphere that makes you feel safe. The security is a major standout; all doors are secure, and access is only granted via a specific security device or through the call box at the main entrance of each building. One of the biggest drawbacks is the parking situation, which is a common reality throughout most of Portland, especially near city centers. I was fortunate enough to get a parking garage based on availability, which solved all my issues since I had a dedicated space and remote access. Before that, I sometimes had to wait 15 to 30 minutes for a spo

First of all, let me address the elephant in the room: Yes, the free parking is limited and no, you will not get towed without reason here. If you do get towed, it’s probably because you’re parked in a fire line or a loading zone. But those are easy to identify, and it baffles me by the amount of absolute carelessness and blame-shifting that occurs with stuff like that. If you don’t want to risk missing out on a parking spot, I definitely think it wouldn’t hurt to pay the extra $75/mo for the overflow lot, especially for what you’re getting here. But the free parking isn’t even that bad in my experience. Packed, sure, but not necessarily impossible to park in. The complex is nice with super secure buildings. No swimming pool or any of those other amenities, so that should cut down on cost

First of all, I have to say how much I appreciate the staff at The Commons at Sylvan Canyon. They go above and beyond to make me feel at home and address any concerns I have. Today, I was having technical difficulties and Brianna not only helped me receive an Amazon package 📦, but was helpful in offering help with me logging into my app. With kindness, might I add. Thank you so much for making my transition to your apartment complex easier. 🙏🌸

So far the place is great! The move in process was pretty quick and easy. Brianna was friendly and very helpful during the tour && summiting an application for the apartment! Mariah was very tentative about the process and made sure I secured a unit before they were taken! Love the area and quick access to highways !
