Tamarind Square: Bad experience (Not Recommending)

2009-11-18T00:59:38-06:00

From lgotosandiego: For the price you can find better places. Not worth the price. I just chose there because it was close to work.We rented a 1 bedroom which are situation under the 2 bedroom units. The 1 bedrooms are like a cave and you don't get any sunlight. Moreover the prices ... [click to read full apartment review]

2009-10-09T15:32:03-06:00

From southbayarearenter: This review is for a 1 bedroom apt in Tamarind Square.Pros:1. The apt is only 714 sqft but the space has been utilized efficiently and there is plenty of storage2.

Tamarind Square: Great place to live! (Recommending!)

2009-08-18T11:22:53-06:00

From marsteelman: Very nice complex in a quiet area of Sunnyvale. We're in a 2BR 2BA townhome and are amazed at size (nearly 1400 square feet), 9' ceilings, and the lack of noise from the neighbors (compared to just about every other thin-walled, poorly constructed complex in the bay area). The kitchen ... [click to read full apartment review]

2009-04-21T15:53:19-06:00

From nomad0: This place is maintained very well and maintenance issues are address quickly. I had quiet neighbors and the staff was polite and attentive.

2009-03-06T01:40:55-06:00

From first_last: UPDATE:They gave me an offer to renew my lease at my current rent rate which is almost $300 above the rent at a comparable apartment at Avalon Silicon Valley. I declined, and they offered me a $75 discount. They are being very polite and understanding, but apparently delusional about the ... [click to read full apartment review]

Tamarind Square: A place to be proud of.... (Not Recommending)

2008-12-22T15:01:17-06:00

From -Anonymous-: for me to poop on.This place is a toilet of an apartment community. Parking at night -- INSANE! Management -- ran like bunch of school girls!

Tamarind Square: Much Improved (Recommending!)

2008-09-06T14:11:55-06:00

From fredlove: I have lived in Tamarind Square since it opened in 2005, and overall my impression has been positive: professional staff, quality construction, and good maintenance. I think the negative reviews on apartmentratings.com reflect a one-year period when we had a bad property manager. She's gone and her replacement is doing ... [click to read full apartment review]

Tamarind Square: 1.5 years here, and it's been a great apartment (Recommending!)

2008-08-19T23:22:26-06:00

From tomc_sunnyvale: I've lived at Tamarind Square since early 2007, and it's been a good experience all around. The apartment complex is one of the most beautiful around the area -- first time visitors are always amazed that these aren't condos. Our unit doesn't have anyone above or below (it's a 2 ...

2008-07-14T10:28:08-06:00

Tamarind Square: Pretty good place, a bit pricey (Recommending!)

2007-10-15T13:19:23-06:00

From -Anonymous-: We've lived in both a 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom townhouse. Our 1 bedroom was pretty nice until a family with a little stomping child and ridiculous toys moved in above us.

Tamarind Square: Bad Experience (Not Recommending)

2007-09-05T03:15:45-06:00

From supertiredrenter: Don't rent units on the first floor because you can hear you upstairs neighbor footsteps, extremely loud. Poor building materials? It's even worse if your upstairs neighbor is an insomniac. Don't rent the units near the power generator, VERY noisy at night! This place is definately over-priced and don't expect ...

2007-04-02T12:33:45-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This place is an absolute disaster. The staff cannot be trusted.

2007-03-01T21:07:32-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've been at Tamarind Square for two years and was the first tenent in my unit. I believe it opened in the Fall of 2004 so it is a very new complex. The grounds are kept well. There is a gym and pool. There is also a recreation room.

2007-02-13T20:26:54-06:00

Tamarind Square: Nice place, good assistant manager (Recommending!)

2007-01-30T18:42:46-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The place is nice, clean, and quiet (I guess it depends on your neighbors). However, you can rent a single-family house for the price of their townhome-like unit.

If anyone expects to stay home 90% of the time or more and also expect to have it very quiet, I think ... [click to read full apartment review]

2006-03-21T23:04:11-06:00

From springdm2004@yahoo.com: Since the departure of previous management the only remaining piece of the puzzle is ownership.
