Don't rent here. Yeah, the location is great as far as access to highways, downtown, beaches, shopping etc. go but management is the worst. As others have mentioned the building is in terrible shape, trash littered throughout the property, pet waste, elevators that are either broken down or reserved and incredibly slow. Loud, noisy neighbors in the common areas after quiet time, poor maintenance response time and lack of appreciation for current residents.
They are painting the building right
...now which means that contractors are putting up scaffolding. But since no schedule was given to residents as to when and what extent that was happening I had men looking at me through my open blinds while I was getting out of the shower to get ready for work. Nice! You know, the blinds were open to get some sunlight and the windows were open for some fresh air all the while painters were staring at me, my room and what ever else. Management has no respect or care for their current residents.
And the fire alarms. They go off all the time. The alarm went off yesterday while the scaffolding was going up. It's no joke. You could survey every resident that has ever lived there and they will tell you that the alarms go off ALL the time. It's to the point that nobody bothers to exit the building when they go off because it happens so frequently and it's always a false alarm. But it takes the fire department 20 or so minutes to get there and clear the building before the alarms go off. It is absolutely ridiculous.
This is NOT a luxury apartment community. It's a living nightmare. And not a single person in management on-site or at RW Selby cares. There is a mass exodus.
The pool are is awful. Sandwiched between two buildings and no deeper than 4 feet it's hardly a place to relax, get some sun and cool off. And the hot tub? Yeah, almost always "out of order" and never "hot" more like slightly less than luke warm.
One would think that such a nice, luxurious building would have full occupancy and be difficult to get into........Not here. A whopping 76% occupancy rate and a desperate promotion of one free month if you sign up now to try and lure new tenants. DON'T BE FOOLED. Is there any other "luxury" building in San Diego offering such a promotion? Nope.
I could go on and on but do your own research. Check Yelp. Virtually every single review since RW Selby took over is a 1 star. It would be negative if possible.
Your money would be better spent elsewhere.
