Tenant Reviews for 2901 E 8TH ST

I relocated to this apartment just a week ago, and that short timeframe has already convinced me renting here was a mistake. The property manager Esther displays an unprofessional and dismissive attitude. During our initial apartment viewing, we encountered significant pest infestations including mosquitoes, cockroaches, and spiders throughout the supposedly "newly renovated" unit. When we raised concerns about these issues being addressed, her response was blunt: "take it or leave it"—this came after we had already finalized the lease and submitted our deposit and first month's rent. We requested to visit the unit multiple times beforehand but were told it remained under renovation. From day one of moving in, problems have been constant. The water heater connection ruptured immediately, we've been without gas for a full week due to a clogged valve on our stove line, and despite numerous maintenance requests, nothing has been resolved. The window screens are poorly installed, allowing mosquitoes constant entry. The parking situation represents the biggest frustration—I've waited up to 2 hours searching for an available spot. The lot permits vehicles without proper authorization while simultaneously charging $150 monthly for garage spaces. mgmt needs to assign numbered parking spots to each unit rather than allow unauthorized parking. If ownership expects tenants to stay long-term, these critical problems demand immediate attention. I seriously doubt I'll remain beyond a year, and I can't recommend this complex to anyone. If you value your well-being and your family's comfort, look elsewhere.

Atrocious! Intimidating residential environment I've been struck multiple times by their golf carts that don't obey traffic regulations. sadly I was distressed during the LATEST incident when a cart nearly hit me (they seem to think there's no camera footage

I spent 2 1/2 years at this complex and had a delightful experience. The positioning is ideal for getting around—freeways are just a block away, making commuting super easy. There's a genuine community vibe that I really appreciated, and I consistently had positive interactions with the people residing here. The mgmt team is always respectful and legit, and they handle upkeep issues incredibly quickly, typically fixing things within 24 hours. The only downside I experienced was struggling to locate parking spots, but once they implemented the monthly parking pass system, that concern basically disappeared.
