Americana Simi Apartments seem nice, untill you look at the details.

Shody work everywhere. They do not try to fix things. There is no paint on any railings on the Patios, just primer.

The paint is peeling on almost every building. Moldings are crooked and haphazardly installed. One better like the apartment that they get becasue they will very rarely repair anything.

The kitchens are poorly put together and not wide enough for a normal 18 sq ft refridgerator to open fully.

The pool's chemicals go up and down. It is so bad that the chlorine smell can be overwhelming. The Hot Tub should be renamed the Soup Tub. The average tempature is over 105deg. Many of us used the Hot Tub regularly and now it is seldom used, because it is to hot.

Our door lock failed and we could not get the key out. I waited for days for the repair crew to fix. I went to the local hardware store and purchased my own door lock. I had a note on my door stating that they were going to drill out the new lock because it was not installed by the mangaement!

Repairing a towel bar nvolved balancing the old towel bar on the shakey plate and leaving. As soon as we touched it in the afternoon it fell to the floor. Five visits later by two maintenance staff and one time by three maintenance staff to fix the towel bar.

The Maintenance Staff is out of their league on being able to repair or maintain the property. The Assitant Manager lets her dog potty where ever and never will pick up after her dog. There are several apartments with MANY people living in them. (We had one in our building that had 11 people in a two bedroom apartment.)
