Not worth the price!!

August 26, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
Management is friendly but that’s the only positive thing. Apartments are overly priced. You have to pay all utilities and the walls with the upstairs neighbor are paper thin. You can hear every step, sneeze, cough and television show they are watching. Washing machines are constantly broken. Definitely not worth it.

Property Manager Responded

September 8, 2020
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us feedback. We cannot disagree with you that Cerritos is priced higher than some of it's surrounding cities, but we do our best to stay competitive with the other communities in the city and watch all market trends. As a community build in the late 60s we do know that up/downstairs noise can be heard at times, but if you are hearing the things you are mentioning, there might be something we should look at. If you are still a resident of our community we also have an exciting upgrade coming to our laundry rooms, and hope this will help with the inconvenience when machines go down. Thank you again for your feedback, as it will only help us get better!

Looking for a Haven?

July 30, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
The moment I turned down the clean wide street with lot's of parking, my hopes were ignited. The apartments on both sides of the street were quite inviting. When I walked into the management office the staff was not just helpful, but warm and friendly with a genuine concern for the residents. The grounds are well maintained with two pools, jacuzzi, laundry facilities, bbq area with seating areas are only the beginning. The apartments will "wow" you with the spacious design and large patio. ...
Also, there are assigned parking spaces with lot's of additional open parking spaces. It is a wonderful family community within, staying connected via the internet with a daily digest centered around our apartment facility. It is around the corner from restaurants, a major grocery store, and pharmacy. Just too many more things of comfort to write about, you'll have to check them out for yourself! Hey, did I mention it's a Haven?

July 28, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
What I like most about our apartments is that it is gated and fairly new. Our buildings are not too high and have a total of three pools and one jacuzzi with a shower by the restrooms. Our apartments are in a prime ABC Unified school district. Elementary and high school are within walking distance. We are very close to the library and park with a riverbed that flows all the way to Seal Beach. Maintenance are very speedy in their repairs and response.
