I personally had a bad experience- I felt very rushed into making a decision my management, the apartment we moved into was not move-in ready and had to have many things done like BE CLEANED and new tile and new carpet. Things frequently broke and were never fixed properly, so we had to keep calling. There was never enough parking, and I thought management was very rude and looked down upon younger guests, even though we are all obviously paying the same monthly. I got out of my lease ASAP, and I would never recommend San Mateo to a friend.
