Poor Management
July 26, 2023Management is unorganized and rude! They had no record of our moveout notice and moveout date. I had to show them the email they had sent to me confirming our moveout date. The entire time she was looking she was condescending and talked down to us. Not until she found our notice and had to eat her words, did she try to recover and apologize. Amongst getting things fixed which was a pain as a tenant, I would say Management is the worst.Property Manager Responded
May 16, 2024Hello, We are sorry to hear you had this experience. We do appreciate your feedback as it is very important to us to help us improve for current and future residents. Thank you!
Review from Apartments.com
Great Price and Quiet
December 26, 2019Great compared to the apartments nearby. We moved here my third year at SDSU and stayed for the rest of our degrees because it was spacious, offered 2 parking spaces, has AC, and was so quiet compared to the surrounding area. It was a sad day when we moved out.Property Manager Responded
