I recently moved into Balsam on Broadway, and I couldn't be happier with my experience!

The staff here is truly outstanding. From the moment I inquired about the apartments, Trisha and Tiffany were incredibly helpful, making my move-in process smooth and stress-free. Their professionalism and friendliness create a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The apartments themselves are modern and spacious, featuring lovely details like granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The layout is well thought out, providing ample space for both living and working from home. I particularly enjoy the in-home washer and dryer, which adds a level of convenience that I appreciate daily. Location-wise, Balsam on Broadway is unbeatable. Nestled next to Downtown St. Paul, it offers easy access to shopping, dining, and parks. The vibrant community around the apartments enhances the overall living experience, making it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer. Overall, I highly recommend Balsam on Broadway to anyone looking for a fantastic apartment with exceptional staff and a prime location.
