January 22, 2026Our experience living here for over a year has been mixed. The unit itself is decent, and the rent is reasonably priced. However, the previous management was largely unresponsive. I reported smoking coming from a neighboring balcony, but no action was taken. This raised concerns about how consistently lease agreements are enforced, particularly in improving the living conditions of current tenants. Cleanliness within the community could also be improved. While the carpets have seen some ...improvement under the new management, the stairways still need regular cleaning. These issues are tolerable, but they would not prevent me from moving elsewhere if a better option became available.Property Manager Responded
January 27, 2026Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We appreciate your feedback about the previous management's responsiveness and the cleanliness of the community. We are committed to improving our service and ensuring a more customer-centric environment, and we invite you to reach out directly if you have any further concerns.

Review from Apartments.com
Uncaring staff, dirty common spaces, package theft
November 11, 2023This place is terrible. The staff are uncaring, doing things like changing the door codes without posting notices so that me and many others came home on a Friday night only to find ourselves locked out. When I complained, they acted like being locked out in the middle of the night was not a big deal. The floors are covered in trash stains and the hallways smell bad. Packages go missing all the time. Even when it requires a signature and someone in the office signs, packages will still disappear. ...Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
The property does nothing to stop thieves
October 10, 2022There are thieves in the building and the management have done nothing to stop this. cameras everywhere for nothing. You are not safe here and would highly recommend that you look elsewhere. This property is awefulReview from Apartments.com
Do not live in this place unless you are ok with missing packages
December 5, 2020This place has no camera in corridor and so far two of my packages were stolen. Be very careful that don't care about that.Review from Apartments.com
Miss it
August 9, 2015We were given false information regarding rent increases at the end of our lease. They said there was a 10% ceiling, but we wanted to go month to month. It was a 54% increase for a month to month agreement. Management didn't seem to care about our concerns. They "worked with us" but they were not pleasant about it. Location is nice. Maintenance is fast and friendly. Rent can increase anywhere from 10-54% from my experience. Management doesn't seem to be paid enough to care about the tenants.Review from Apartments.com
Professional side of Berkeley
July 20, 2015I moved to the west coast one year ago and got an apartment at the Essex properties in Berkeley. Over the course of the year it's been a great experience. Unfortunately, we are moving to a new apartment next month because the commute is too long for my husband in Berkeley. We loved the apartment though and the management company was pretty responsive. Costs are a bit cheaper than you would see in the city, it's clean (never saw any bugs), modern and located in a cute area that's as far from the ...college as you can get in Berkeley. I think this building and area are for more young professionals which was a good fit for my husband and I at the time. We had a one bedroom and I think my only complaint (which is minor) was the apartment layout. I think for a one bedroom they could have done a better job and positioning the rooms because we had a long hallway and balcony with a weird view (just to other neighbors' balconies). I feel like they took up a lot of space that could have been maximized in the living room or kitchen area. Good apartment though if you're looking to live in Berkeley away from college town.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
