Emerald Glen Apartments in Escondido is Terrible My husband was deployed to Afghanistan, so I lived at Emerald Glen Apartments in Escondido for a few years. It is the worst apartment building that I have ever lived in. Donâ??t make the mistake of living there. Here… See More >

          The only good manager left. the new one is so rude! I would expect a better level of customer service considering the last one was so good with people. My boyfriend says not to take it personal, that the new manager has 's.m.s." (short man… See More >

            Don't expect to get your deposit back.

            We spent hours cleaning the apartment up to get it looking spotless. The place looked better then when we moved in. When they came to look at it the guy said it was one of the best cleaned apartment that he'd seen. He charged us $95… See More >

                Worst Place

                This is one of the worst place. Bad management. Bad service. They charged $400 for move out.

                  The people who work here are like car salesman! They say what they have to to get you in but its not all true. The reason they have their "30 day guarantee" is because they need it! All their apartments are different so they show… See More >

                    At first glance, you would think that this place isn't that bad. The apartment grounds also have a deceitfully nice ambiance. When we were first moving in we were pretty excited about our move. The staff seemed nice at first. You can wave or say… See More >

                          If you end up staying here for just 1 year, you can kiss your deposit goodbye. When I moved out of this apartment after one year, I was charged 200$ for full paint on the apartment. When I asked first I was lied too that… See More >
