I am in love with Camden Sierra at Otay Ranch. I have moved a lot, all around the nation, and as far as apartment rentals go, this has been the best so far. Office staff and maintenance are awesome and take care of all requests very quickly.
My particular apartment has a stunning mountain view and I have good neighbors that overall are rarely loud or obnoxious, which is almost unheard of in apartment life.
I have 2 complaints, which will not stop me from renewing my lease.
The first is pest
...control. The spiders are insane. I've had no other pest problems, but large spiders have rendered my balcony unusable, and you have to watch when you're walking because there are webs everywhere. Pest control will come up to my apartment on request to take care of it when it starts to build up and get too bad, but it would be better if they were preemptive with this and would have pest control regularly spraying and knocking down webs in the high-traffic areas and around balconies.
The second one, and this is major, is the parking. I finally gave in and rented a garage, so this fixed the problem for me, but having guests over is impossible after 5 p.m. Nobody takes the permit thing seriously and it appears there's more cars with permits than spaces on top of that. There is a lot of street parking around, but between extra residents who can't find spots or have more cars than permits they were given and all their guests, sometimes you have to park literally a mile away. Basically, if you just plan on adding the cost of a garage into your rent if you're looking here, you'll be fine. Now that this is no longer an issue for me, I'll be very likely to renew my lease and stay a long time, depending on what they raise my rent to at renewal time.
All in all, I would highly recommend this place. No apartment is perfect and when living around people who only care about themselves and not their neighbors, it can be an unpleasant lifestyle. I have not experienced that here and have a lovely apartment with a nice view.
