Almost 2 Years Here: PLEASE Read Before Signing a Lease
August 19, 2026 - Reseña de Apartments.com
I am a current resident who has lived here for almost two years, and I genuinely wish someone had warned me about what living here would actually be like. What started as an amazing experience has slowly turned into an absolute nightmare.
When I moved in, the beautiful building, amenities, fitness classes, and resident events made the extremely high rent feel justified. Almost two years later, many of the things that made Miro worth the price have been reduced, removed, or turned into additional ...
expenses.
The "Miro lifestyle" is not as inclusive as it looks during a tour. House membership, events, fitness classes, and other offerings come with additional costs. Ask exactly what is included in your rent before signing.
The amenities have also declined. Fitness equipment is frequently broken, the pool is never heated, and the fitness director who hosted classes was let go. Those classes were one reason I chose to live here. Social events and fitness programming have also been significantly limited or removed.
There are also numerous additional fees. There is a package fee for deliveries to your door, parking is extremely expensive, and DoorDash drivers frequently have difficulty accessing the building.
My experience with management under Zara has deteriorated significantly. I have found the resident experience to feel extremely impersonal and disconnected. The fact that management knows my name is unfortunately for a very tragic reason, not because I feel genuinely known as a resident.
And then there's the location.
Miro is beautiful and can feel like a bubble once you're inside. Outside, my experience of downtown San Jose has been very different from what I expected. I frequently feel uncomfortable walking around the neighborhood, even just to get groceries. The street noise can be diabolical, including fireworks and what I have personally experienced as gunshots. I've witnessed serious incidents in the area that have made me increasingly uncomfortable.
Downtown San Jose has been the most difficult downtown environment I've personally experienced. Visit the surrounding area at different times of day and night before signing, not just during a tour.
If you're considering Miro, do your homework. Ask what comes with your rent, ask about every fee, talk to current residents, and visit the surrounding neighborhood at night.
