The Worst Place to Live Ever! If you're reading this, please do NOT move into Capes of Ventura
October 17, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
I lived at Capes of Ventura for a year, and it was nothing short of a nightmare. Initially, the staff seemed friendly and helpful, but that was just to make a sale and get new tenants in the door. Once we signed the lease, everything changed.
Apartment Quality:
The building is in TERRIBLE condition. After the first rain, we had a leaking roof that caused water to pool on the floor and damage the ceiling. Despite multiple complaints and five separate requests to fix the roof, the management ...
ignored us until finally sending someone to make repairs. Unfortunately, it didn't help— the roof still leaks every time it rains.
There are termites everywhere—between the walls and closets. They never made any real attempt to address the issue, offering excuse after excuse. On top of that, there was mold in the walls. The management had painted over it to make the apartment look presentable to new tenants, but once it rained, the mold reappeared. And, of course, they never fixed it.
Amenities:
The pool and hot tub are always dirty and smell bad, making them completely unusable. The hygiene is horrendous. The grill area is always broken, and instead of fixing it, they just put up a sign saying “grill doesn’t work.” It was never repaired during my time there.
Neighbors & Noise:
The neighbors, especially those with dogs, were a constant source of noise. The dogs barked non-stop, and the management completely ignored my complaints about the noise. There's no peace or quiet in this place.
Management & Staff:
The management and staff were the absolute worst part of living here. They were rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. The office staff frequently lost keys, didn’t seem to care about tenants, and would forget important details. It was clear that they were only interested in making a sale and sending out monthly bills. When issues arose, they were unresponsive and uninterested in resolving anything.
In summary, living at Capes of Ventura was a terrible experience. I would advise anyone considering moving here to run in the opposite direction. The apartment complex is falling apart, the management is unprofessional, and you’ll be dealing with constant issues that will never be addressed. Stay away!
