University River Village

"I am a case manager helping clients with housing. The turmoil they caused my client was unprofessional. They did not send the Rifta in and my client was told they never sent it in and then submitted when my client went down there. The apartment did not pass the Section 8 inspection. The apartment manager he was dealing with was now no longer there. This was ongoing from September to December. My client explained to them I given notice at my other apartment and they were not concerned. He finally got his holding fee back. Just last week someone called him and asked for his awards letter. What is really going on??? You do not have the right to put peoples housing in Jeopardy when housing is hard to come by."

"I moved in out of desperation because my roommate situation fell through last minute at Sac State campus housing. They say they have consistent security but security here is pretty much nonexistent. Homeless people often digging through trash and living right next door in a growing community of tents under the freeway. They charge you $40-50 A MONTH which adds up to an extra $500/year per car, to park in your own apartments, and take advantage of students and residents because there are so many car break ins and homeless people right next door that you have no choice BUT to pay to park in here. Not that it matters anyways since I’ve heard of many car break ins inside the apartments and I’ve heard from neighbors that management does nothing to try and resolve these at all. The gated community aspect means nothing since there’s no reliable security and anyone can come in and out as they please. The building is old and things often break/ don’t work properly. My sink was broken as soon as I moved in and maintenance “fixed it” but it broke again a week later. They used the wrong paint in my bathroom sink which started peeing immediately after I moved in. The repairs are just as cheap as you can get. They don’t actually care about their tenants. They only care about the money. Save yourself the money, headache and keep your sanity by not moving here. Rent is way to expensive considering everything that comes with this place. I don’t want to have to move out because of the cost but I’ll be moving as soon as my lease ends because I cannot stand to live here any longer. It’s almost funny to see that they reply to all negative review with the same old dry message of how they’re, always looking to be their best and provide best service and improve their quality of care or whatever and never actually replying addressing the issues because they don’t actually care about solving anything. They say they don’t have the “budget”. This place is a joke."

"Do yourself a favor and use your hard earned money for rent somewhere else. Place is an old complex with a terrible renovation job, that charges wayyyy too much for what this place offers. THEY EVEN CHARGE YOU TO PARK IN YOUR OWN COMPLEX.Also, always has gate entrance issues so it’s a hassle to get in your own apartments.Probably why the complex is more than half empty. Not to mention you have cars getting broken into and homeless people going in and out even using the pools during the summer lol(how can you blame them though).There are so many places that look way nicer for either a little cheaper or around the same that you’ll pay here, which is why I left."

"I recently relocated from the Bay Area and moved down to Sacramento. I viewed many apartments but this was my final decision and I’m so happy with the decision I made. There staff is AMAZING! I worked with Yvette and Cleo. They both did a amazing job showing the property and answering all the questions that I had. I love all the amenities that they have available. They have a pool, basketball court, and gym. You don’t have to worry about lots of people on the gym equipment, it seems to always be empty and you can enjoy all the machines you’d like. Everything is really clean from the amenities to the property. I recommend these apartments to anyone looking!"

"For your own piece of mind please listen to the reviews! This place and company are horrible. Extreme lack of communication, old apartment building that they renovate and charge more for. Hot water never worked in the unit, and we were told to run the sink in the bathroom.... currently fighting them to get some of the security deposit back. Charging us for repainting the unit and cleaning carpet when no damages were made. Moved out on 5/31 and we are barley receiving the move out itemization on 8/9 with threats to go to collections if we don't pay them the amount due that we had no idea about. This place is a joke. Multiple domestic violence issues where police were searching the apartment unit. Homeless people everywhere. Car got broken into on the first night we moved in. Even if you're desperate don't do it. It is not worth it at all."
