I FOUND THIS PLACE ON THIS WEB SITE AND THE GOOD REVIEWS IN HERE I SAW BEFORE WERE A MAJOR REASON I MOVED IN. I DON'T WANT OTHER PEOPLE TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE SO I AM GOING TO QUICKLY MENTION THE CONS AND PROS:
PROS:
1. LOCATION IS GOOD: CLOSE TO 24 AND 680 AND DOWNTOWN. BUT WHAT COMES WITH IT IS A LOT OF NOISE FROM OUTSIDE. PLUS THERE ARE OTHER APTS AROUND WHICH I THINK ARE BETTER WORTH IT WHEN YOU LOOK INTO HOW MUCH YOU ARE PAYING
2. MANAGEMENT GIVES YOU A COUPON THAT WAIVES THE ENROLLMENT IN A NEARBY GYM. THAT IS B/C THERE IS NO GYM IN THE BUILDING.
CONS:
1. NOISE, NOISE, NOISE. FROM OUTSIDE( FREEWAY AND DOWNTOWN0) TO THE NEIGHBORS UPSTAIRS AND EVEN DOWNSTAIRS. PLUS ALL THE WATER PIPES SOUND LIKE YOU LIVE RIGHT ON THE ENGINE!. IT IS HORRIBLE.
YOU CAN HEAR YOUR NEIGHBORS WALKING, HAVING CONVERSATION OR SEX. NO PRIVACY
2. NO INTERCOM. YOUR GUESTS NEED TO CALL YOU ON THEIR CELL PHONES TO LET YOU KNOW THEY ARE HERE. THEN YOU NEED TO GIVE THEM THE CODE FOR THE GATE!
3. NO SECURITY. IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS THIEVES BROKE INTO CARS AND MAIL BOXES. WHAT KIND OG GATED COMMUNITY IS THAT' THAT IS B/C PEOPLE HAVE TO GIVE THE CODES TO GUETS AND OVER TIME THAT DECREASES THE SECURITY.
3. NO A/C. HEATING SYSTEM IS THIS PIPE ONTHE FLOOR THAT YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY ADJUST IT ALL THE TIME. THE PG&E BILL IS HORRIBLE.
4. PARKING PLACES ARE SUPER SMALL.
5. EXPENSIVE. IT IS NOT WORTH IT.
NO W/D IN THE UNITS AND THERE IS ON;Y ONE LAUNDRY ROOM FOR THE WHOLE COMPLEX. ON THE WEEKENDS THE WAIT IS TERRIBLE.
6. THE TOILTS ARE BROKEN ALL THE TIME.
