I lived here for about 4 years and I enjoyed it. The apartments are located in a very quiet street. Not many cars pass by this street, its a hidden gem. There is park about a block away and an entrance to Steven's Creek trail. There is a decent size swimming pool for hot days in the summer. I had very quiet neighbors when I live there, no noise from upstairs or side apartments. Rent did increase every year but that is the case for any other apartment in Mountain View. Clarence, the live in manager, is by far the best apartment manager I have ever had. Very courteous and efficient, he solved any maintenance issues right away.
