Worst apartments ever. 1st off: payed waaaaaaay too much to get ""luxury"" living as I did not want the typical cheap apartment experience. Well, the only thing luxury about this place is a few exterior cosmetic upgrades to make you think you're in luxury. But don't let appearances fool you - the construction is super cheap. \r

2nd major gripe: the walls are ridiculously thin & there is no noise insulation. The girl above me had 2 small children that RAN back and forth all day and late at night while she was out partying (her parents would babysit & didn't care what the kids did). It sounded like a heard of elephants banging around. It even rattled the lights in the living room. \r
\r
Also the girl below us had 2 big dogs, and she worked nights so while she was gone they barked... And barked.... And barked. All night. Every night. Again, there is no insulation so it sounded like they were in the room with us. \r
We complained a million times to management, even escalating it to corporate, they did nothing. We even had videos as proof of the noise we sent them. They did nothing. (Greystar is the management company FYI. I'm not impressed by them). We called the peace officer many times, they did nothing. They wouldn't even answer most of the time or even call back, and not once did they ever come to investigate the noise. We also knocked on the neighbors doors numerous times & if they didn't answer left notes on their doors. Nothing changed. \r

The walls were so thin I could hear the people's TV / stereos / conversations next door, could hear their baby crying at 2 am, could hear the people above & next to us having sex! And could hear their alarm clock going off at 5 am. Also the patio/front doors slamming was nonstop. Ridiculous. \r
\r
3rd gripe is the severe lack of parking. I get home at 8 pm and there was never anywhere to park. I had to park 3 or 4 buildings away most of the time. \r
\r
Fortunately we did not have any problems with pests as some others did. We never got our unit exterminated either. Perhaps it's because we were on the second floor. Not sure. Only positive thing was maintenance was fast to respond to a request. \r

By the way, I lived here in 2011
