What reviewers praise
  • Atmosphere & grounds — One long-ago reviewer called it the best place to live in Oakland, though this sentiment is not echoed in more recent feedback.
Worth asking about
  • Staff & care — Multiple reviewers describe staff as rude, unprofessional, and dismissive, including when handling basic phone inquiries or waitlist questions.
  • Financial transparency — A reviewer raises suspicion about rent payment processing and whether tenants are being charged correct amounts, which families should ask to see documented clearly.
  • Cleanliness & maintenance — A report of roaches in a resident's unit suggests families should tour thoroughly and ask about pest control practices.
  • Staff & care — Older reviews describe non-functioning guest buzzer systems, car break-ins, and drug activity with inadequate security response, so current security measures and safety protocols should be directly confirmed.
