I've lived here at Barcelona since Sept 2010; almost 18 months. My apartment was very clean, new vertical blinds, freshly painted, tiled and carpeted when I moved in. Maintenance is very responsive, usually within 4 hours. Pest control comes once every month. The construction of this 130-unit complex is not of high quality. Interior walls are paper thin, 2nd story floors/ground floor ceilings are very well isolated, water pressure is VERY low, hot water is included in the rent but is very inconsistent and the insulation is practically non-existent. The grounds are very green, lush, large and well-maintained, laundry room is centrally located, clean and well-maintained. Pool and surrounding area is clean, well-maintained and there are plenty of lounge chairs in good condition. Parking is more than ample and the Sacramento County Sheriff has a sub-station located in one of the units so there are police cars driving in and out 24/7. Security is very good, although it wasn't in the past. This place USED to be crack central. But new management has really done a terrific job in cleaning the place up. My immediate neighbors are pretty noisy but overall the place is fairly quiet. I would certainly recommend this place to family and friends.
