Moved here in June. Pros: swimming pools, gym, big bathroom, nice enough apartment. Cons: the plate is GHETTO. I can no longer have packages delivered here because I have gotten 3 stolen. 2 mountain bikes were stolen. There is obvious drug dealing going on and sketchy people hanging out in the laundry room and in the middle of the road. My apartment is way in the back and one time I saw like 6 punks in a van smoking a bong. Others smoking pot on park benches in bright daylight. it's pricy at $1500 for a 2 bedroom. My neighbors are weird and there's this cat that is ALWAYS outside my door and smells bad and I'm allergic to cats. Don't be fooled, everyone else is correct it seems nice at first but is just ghetto in disguise. The best thing about it is the location- close to freeway, OB, and sports arena area. Edit: I had been nice and given it 2 stars for the location. But according to the new manager, I can no longer have my 2 longboards on MY upstairs patio because they "can be seen from the street". Besides the fact that my apartment is in the way back and you actually can't see the balcony from the street at all, this is just stupid. When I asked to see where it said this in the lease agreement she pointed to the section about "common areas", but it clearly says common areas are areas that can be used by everyone. So not my balcony. I have a feeling that she is all talk and no action since many others are in "violation" of this ridiculous policy. When I singed the lease, the agent even told me about how great it would be to store surfboards on the balcony. Regardless, I'm sure they will be oh so happy to lose a $1600/month customer when our lease is up.
