The only reason I live here is because my rent is under $1K for a 2-bedroom. They have no idea I still live here. I have been lease free for 2 years. Idiots.
If you have maintenance requests, you need to call 5 times to get a response. That phone line is never answered or monitored. The guys that "fix" the problems are dumb, inexperieneced and NEVER fixt it right on the first visit.
Courtsey Patrol will help with noisy neighbors if you call in a "noise complaint", but management never steps in to help. Your neighbors could have loud parties every night & you could call CP, but management will never give a warning or evict the tenants.
Courtsey Patrol does nothing else. They walk around the complex trying to act official. One of the patrol guys (-----, ----- guy with ------- ----- hair) is screwing one of the local whores from the projects on Steiner. Another officer drank herself to death in her apartment. The officers often open the "secured" doors for non-residents.
Street parking is friendly - only because no one wants to park on the street because of the crime.
Break-in's, rapes and assaults happen ALL the time, but are rarely reported to residents. Check out the SFPD crime website - it is a great tool.
Drug dealers, pimps, and whores make up the majority of residents. I have seen numerous drug busts/raids go down in the FC.
The Fillmore Center is a joke. It is dangerous, unsafe, and dirty. Do you know about the Legionnaires problem they had in the 80's' Mgmt will deny it, but it happened. Most likely you have mold growing in your apartment - near the windows. The windows are faulty and leak - even if you can't see it.
I will stay and tolerate the mess until I find a place in the east bay. I've lived here long enough to know how to operate with the idiotic staff. Knowing what I know now, I never would have moved in here. But, since I have such a great deal (no lease), I can leave at any time.
Advice: if you live here, or decide to move here - put everything in writing. Document your calls & meetings with the staff, cp, and maintenance requests. Document everything. CYA. Oh, and when you do move out, know this: they charge everyone a "exit cleaning fee" - they bill you for it before they have seen your apt. You can use their cleaning company before you exit, and they will still charge you the fee. Fight them on the fee. Like I said, document everything!

What a pile of crap !! Talk about an IDIOT !!! Assuming you live here without a lease at under $1000 a month for a 2BR, how long do you think it will take them to figure out who you are? Guy's like you show up regularly on morning radio shows as the 'WORLDS DUMBEST CRIMINAL". Better step up your search for that Oakland apartment - you'll need it sooner than you think. It won't help your cause that there are no vacancies currently. 2BR's at $2000 a month are in HUGE demand !!!! Must be everyone wants to be closer to those crack ho's and their own private drug dealers, huh ?
Lived here for over 3 years and love the place !!! Nice apartment, great staff, never any problems. Oh the urbanity !!!!

Just a suggestion: if your going to tell lies, to be successful, you need to make them believable. You need alot of practice.

It seems that Penthouse --- hasn't read anyone else's reviews, either. Everyone seems to be saying the same thing about this place. I went to look at an apartment at this place the other day. It was under $2K/mo, so I thought, hey, why not. Turns out it was a dump, TINY bedrooms, very noisy, and there were huge warning signs about promoting safety and security in the mailbox area. Since I used to live in this neighborhood, I know about the crack ho's and drug problems. But I was amused to see that everyone I ran into in the building was under 30 yrs old, it felt like a rundown dorm!
Having looked at a LOT of other apartments, for the price, this one doesn't even begin to compare...this is one of those greedy apartment complexes that thought if they just heavily promoted themselves and included meaningless "amenities" such as there being a Starbucks nearby, that people would ignore the fact that they are paying way too much for way too little. If the units were bigger, had a washer/dryer in the unit, had a swimming pool INCLUDED, parking INCLUDED, or if the place was in a better neighborhood, I might better be able to understand the price....I think I'll pass!
