"Experience Matters"!
I have been a Resident of Alicante Apartment Homes for a while now. For the most part, I have been a content Resident. Compared to other floor plans, Alicante wins hands down! The units are spacious with beautiful moldings, etc...
As a bonus: (1) The entrance and grounds are always immaculate, (2) Pleasant office staff, (3) Maintenance Service requests are professionally addressed, (4) Well lit stairways and (5) For the most part - Smoke Free Environment!!!
However, the Cons are: Poor insulation. Clearly, when the units were built, padding for sound was not on the agenda as a priority!!! In fact, joining walls are very, very thin. For example: (1) You can hear running water; (2) Garbage disposals; (3) Walking; (4) Closet & balcony doors opening and closing; (5) Toilet flushings, (6) Vacuum cleaning, etc.
I will say the neighbors are pretty polite here - No drama!!! Parking has gotten better with the new policy in place. But that bitter pill still remains: noise control!!! Seems Management has very little impact on curtailing this inevitable nuisance. I just wanna enjoy my late night's, free of disturbances...
All in all, Alicante is a great Community. It's beautiful here, freeway close, mountain views and staff arranges activities for Residences to meet and greet.
If you're still looking for a place to live, stop looking!!! Consider Alicante your final stop where "Experience Matters!"
