I lived here for 2.5 years. Things were great in the beginning, but went downhill after I renewed my lease. Pros: Good storage, dog park, gym, washer and dryer on site, close to the freeway, 5 minutes drive from the beach, and nice apartments. Cons: - Maintenance is not responsive and apparently only does repairs after 7pm. -When a washer or dryer is broken, or the laundry room smells like mold, don't expect it to be fixed for a few months. - If you need your FRONT window screens replaced, you can expect the creepy maintenance guy, Greg, to be looking through your BACK windows at 8pm, a month after you submitted the request. Don't expect him to contact you before he does this either. He'll only contact you after you yell at him to go away. Greg, why does changing my screen require you to peer into my apartment? And if something like this happens and you describe to bring it up to Cherie, the property manager, you can expect to be gaslit and dismissed. - Expect $100-350 for trash, water and other fees to be added to your rent each month. If you inquire about these fees, don't expect a transparent response from Cherie. She becomes very rude and patronizing when tenants ask about what they are paying for. - If you look at a unit that's listed for $ABC/month, don't expect to see that rent price on the lease when you go to sign. Expect the rent for your desired lease term to be about $200 more than the price Cherie initially told you. - Expect for Cherie to neglect to tell you that you and your neighbors' door codes were changed at 10pm at night. - Expect a LOT of illegal dumping. Non-residents will drop off their bed bug-ridden mattresses, tables, TVs, etc. And guess who pays for it? The tenants! And when you bring this up to Cherie, don't expect any action or acknowledgment. - If you happen to be unlucky enough to work with Cherie when you apply, don't worry! She will be very nice in the beginning. If you want to stay on good terms with her, I advise not asking her any questions or bringing her any concerns while you are a tenant. Overall, the location is great and the community has a lot of great qualities, but it's not worth it. At first, I could bear the inflated fees each month. But I won't tolerate is maintenance neglect and unnecessary rudeness from the property manager. Do better.
