If ANYONE writes a positive review about this place they are being paid to do it!!! No one has a positive experience in this ---- hole they sell as luxury apartments. Here is what "luxury" means to these scammers:
- scummy, scratched up bathtubs made of some totally unrecognizable plastic
- bathroom mirror with rust stains
- unfinished cabinets, and paint splattered cabinets in the bathroom and kitchen
- kitchen counters made of (guess what) some totally unrecognizable material that scratches easily and stains easily and is just hideous
- cork board cabinet drawers and cupboard covers (not even real wood) and unpainted
- stained carpet
- closet doors that NEVER stay on their runners and you have to fear will fall on you
- exposed metalic sprinklers (archaic and reminiscent of the torture device used in a Clockwork Orange (so chic and institutional looking)
- a STAFF THAT SUCKS and is AMAZINGLY INCOMPETENT - never fulfilling a single request for service on time, make you wait around and never show up, never follow through on anything without multiple complaints
- leaking pipes and appliances that break(more maintenance issues that make you deal with the above nonsense)

THIS IS A HIGHLY STRESSFUL PLACE TO LIVE AND ALL OF THAT FOR AN OVERPRICED ---- BUCKET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOST GANG RIDDEN NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE BAY AREA.

Ever feel like you've been cheated'

ANON !!!! IT'S A MIRACLE !!!! Congrats on the restoration of your eyesight. Most visually impaired persons remain so for life. It appears you have beaten the odds. I too would be upset upon seeing the light, only to find that the 'luxury' finishes in the apartment I had been shown were, indeed, scummy tubs, rusty bathroom mirrors and sub stadard counter tops instead of the slab granite I thought was there when I rented. My next call, if I were you, would be to the neighborhood Police department (the one on the corner) to report that someone had broken in and stolen the solid maple cabinets and replaced them with unpainted ones with cork board drawers and doors. Don't know what to tell you about the carpet. In 5 years I have lived in 2 different penthouses and both had new carpet when I moved in. WHen I first looked at them the existing carpet was not up to my standards and they replaced it ... no questions or hassles. Of course, we should assume they took advantage of you, being blind and all. My closet doors fall off the track if I don't take the time to open the closet with reasonable care. I suppose someone in engineering should be drawn and quarterd for that massive problem. If I choose not to put them back on the track, engineering will come up and do that for me. And how did those pipes mysteriously appear during your lease? OH! I FORGOT!! YOU WERE A BLIND MAN WHEN YOU SIGNED IT !!!! I do have to give you this, though; A Clockwork Orange ... had to dig waaaay deep for that one. And I thought only a dope doin hippie child of the sixties would remember those details. Silly me. And every time I need something fixed, like an appliance that is so inconsiderate that it stops working, I have had to wait and wait and wait. Sometimes until that afternoon. Like you, I just assumed that I had a personal Butler, kept down in the garage, at my beck and call. ANd boy, how the neighborhood has changed since you moved in. Until then, as I'm sure you noticed when you drove around before signing your lease, it looked just like Orinda, or maybe Tiburon if the light was just right. OH!!! What am I thinking ??? YOU WERE BLIND WHEN YOU SIGNED UP !!!! Ever feel like you've been exposed as a sniveling fraud ???? And NO, I don't work here. I'm the gracefully ageing biker type in the Tommy Bahama shirts you saw wandering around this weekend with the little pooch. Penthouse Bob
