    Firefighters coming at 12:00am r
    Tinita S.

    THIS REVIEW CAN BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE UPON CONDENSATION AND ACTIONS TAKEN TO SOLVE THE ISSUE(s) . Do you like to hustle and surround the parking lot for 45 min before you find an available spot to park ? Do you love being disturbed by construction noises for 6+ months during the worst pandemic times while forced to stay home ? How about waking up at the alarming (literary) sound of the fire alarm because of a faulty electrical panel that should've been fixed days ago ? If you do so then this is your ideal place to move to . Literally a living hell . During 3 times the firefighters had to come , waste their valuable time to check on a faulty electrical device . We feel unsafe , unheard and we are contacting corporate to take action into this !

    Avalon Fremont Closed Sign

    Scheduled an appointment to tour community. Received an email confirmation from Sidney F, which I appreciated. We also corresponded the day of the appointment. She confirmed my appointment yet again the day of the appointment. However, I show up to my appointment to find that the leasing office is closed due to the MLK holiday. I email Sidney F with the expectation of a reply (since she'd been so responsive), but no reply. Two other prospects showed up as well for their confirmed appointments, only to learn the office was closed. How can it be that both their website gave the option to schedule the tours and the leasing agent, knowing they'd be closed, confirms the appointment? A phone call or email reply would have been been nice, along with an apology. Very poor management.

I remember the first time we toured this place we fell in love with how cozy it was. It felt like a real home and an upgrade to the place we were previously staying. 1 car garage with additional driveway & street parking, in unit washer/dryer, backyard for gardening, upstairs balcony...plenty of space! I could go on about all the good qualities! They all outweigh bad. We had a couple issues with neighbor smoking in the backyard, dribbling basketballs past quiet hours, finding parking after a certain hour but I feel those issues are common things in all apartment complexes. These issues were addressed. Overall, we enjoyed our time. Safety is a priority and we did not encounter a bad experience with theft or break-ins inside the community. (Sometimes we would forget to close our garage over night and everything stayed in place the next morning hehe). Can't forget to mention how close this place is to Safeway. Super convenient. Also a good distance to lake Elizabeth as well. Last but not least, Kathy (manager) and Jason (maintenance) are truly the best people for this job. They are genuine and friendly people who really cares for their community. Quick to respond and addressed concerns promptly. We will miss living within this community. If you're looking for a spot, I highly recommend living here and calling this place home!

They are efficient, friendly, and have supported my wife and I for all those years. My wife passed early this year and they have been supportive in my efforts to downsize and re-organize. I am staying with the property, just teaming up with another tenant (who I had shared one of the units with before). Our unit was a 2 bedroom, 1 & 1/2 bath townhouse. It has a spacious living room (which I turned into a 'hospital care' space when my wife became ill), with 2 bedrooms upstairs. The full bath is upstairs, the half bath is downstairs. When we had any requests, like the reasonable accommodation request for a handicap ramp for the front stairs, they got it done.

Today, two of us were walking through chatting, and a Meadows property manager/worker yelled at us from across the parking lot, maybe 40 yards away, asking who we were. Thinking he had mental issues or a salesman, we kept walking. He then approached and harassed us, screaming about how we were trespassing, continuing verbal abuse and harassment and followed us until we left the property. We talked quietly, did not approach anyone, hang door tags, play music, or toss trash. We didn't go into the center apartment area. We're both computer professionals. This employee could have gotten on his golf cart and quietly told us sorry we cannot walk thru his parking lot and to kindly exit the premises. Instead, he chose to yell threateningly across a parking lot and come after us with verbal abuse. A good way to judge apartment management is how they treat visitors. Because as residents, you're going to get more of that - or worse. Stay away from this complex.

I arrived around 1:12 AM and had to wait at the entrance because I had not been provided a gate code. I was actively trying to contact the resident, who eventually remotely opened the gate for me around 1:15 AM. However, the towing paperwork says my vehicle was already "observed" and dispatched for towing at 1:14 AM. I completed the delivery and returned within only a few minutes. My vehicle was already hooked up, but the tow truck was still inside the apartment property. My husband and I immediately approached the tow operators, explained why we were there, and asked them to release my vehicle. I called 911 at 1:22 AM while this was happening. The towing company's own paperwork says my vehicle was not "removed" until 1:24 AM. Instead of releasing the vehicle, the operators continued towing it through the gate. They stopped again outside the property, where the situation became even more confrontational. I was upset and trying to explain what had happened, but the way I was treated was completely unacceptable. One of the tow workers made a disrespectful comment to my husband about me needing to "watch my mouth," and I was ultimately told that I would not be getting my car back and would have to pick it up from the tow yard. I felt like I was being treated as if I had done something malicious when I was simply there to complete a delivery and leave. I was then left stranded around 2 AM in an unfamiliar area with my purse and wallet still inside my vehicle. I only had my phone with me and had to walk approximately 20 minutes to the tow yard, where I had to pay hundreds of dollars to retrieve my car. The entire experience was stressful, upsetting, and handled in a way that I believe was unnecessarily harsh. What makes this even more concerning is that after looking into this property, I found other public complaints involving parking enforcement and towing. I am clearly not the only person who has raised concerns about towing here, including complaints from residents and visitors. That raises serious questions about how parking enforcement is being handled at this property. I understand that apartment communities need parking rules. What I do not understand is a system where a visitor or delivery driver can apparently be flagged for towing within minutes, before they have even finished gaining access to the property, and then have their vehicle taken despite returning and asking for it back. I have preserved my towing paperwork, timestamps, 911 call record, delivery records, and witness information, and I have formally requested that both the apartment management and towing company preserve any surveillance footage, gate records, towing authorization records, photographs, and communications related to this incident. Anyone visiting or delivering to this property should be extremely careful about where they stop or park, even for a very short period of time. Management should seriously review how towing is being handled here and whether residents, guests, and delivery drivers are being given clear and reasonable notice.

    WARNING on this property: shady practices; outrageous charges; potentially taking advantage of…read moreelders with language barriers. I signed a lease with Artist Walk Apartments. During our inspection of the apartment on the day of moving in, we found the apartment to be extremely noisy. The noise comes from the bathroom fans that are on 24/7 (you cannot turn it off). We measure the noise to be around 70 dB at highest, 55 dB at lowest. The Fremont noise regulation requires a continuous noise of less than 45 dB at night. Because the apartment does not meet government noise regulation, and we were legit getting severe headches from the noise of the apartment, we immediately requested to cancel the lease. Problem begins: My parents don't speak English well. They arrived at the leasing office first, and were asked to sign the apartment inspection document BEFORE they were allowed to inspect the apartment. They were told that if they don't sign, they aren't abe to get keys. As a result, they were conned into signing the inspection document before we found out that the apartment does not meet government noise regulation. Because we signed the inspection document, the apartment now insists that we have "Moved In", and not only do they refuse to refund our 600 USD deposit, they also requested us to pay two months of rent totalling almost 8000 USD for us to cancel our lease. Please note that we NEVER moved into the apartment, and we requested to cancel the lease WELL within the 24 hours of our apartment inspection. We have reported all of our noise findings to various government agencies, and we are fighting all of the charges through all legal means available to us. Please note that they have initially agreed to "Cancel" our lease, but now threatened us with TWO months rent for "breaking" our lease. They said they would replace the fans, but repeatedly made it clear that it may not solve the issue. Since they cannot promise the issue to be resolved, we insisted on cancelling our lease. So now we have to seek legal means. They have now demanded a payment of well over 8000 USD because we've touched the apartment keys. They refused to admit that their apartment violates the government noise regulation and unethically made my parents sign the inspection document BEFORE they were allowed to inspect the apartment. We requested to cancel the lease PURELY because the apartment noise violates government regulation. Even their own measurements showed a clear violation. In the end, it is the unethical practices from these people that are truly shocking. They clearly think us civilians do not have the means to fight back. The apartment itself shoudn't be allowed on the rental market until all issues are fixed; but in the end there is no easy fix to subpar morals, discrimination, lack of ethics, penchant for manipulation, and a complete disregard of rules, regulation, and human decency. July 11th, 2025: For legal purposes I am writing this update to respond to "Maggie". I have plenty of communication evidence, and formal evidence that I've tried to resolve this issue "informally" with your team. I am no longer interested in circling back and forth with your team. So far, your team have done nothing but gaslight me, provide conflicting accusations that shouldn't make any sense even to yourself. Here is a summary of what you have done so far: 1. I received an application credit of 50 USD. You now said you will be charging me for that because I DID NOT move in, and the credit only applies when I've moved in. 2. You requested that I pay two months rent to "break the lease" because I DID MOVE IN. Note, in previous bullet point your reason for charging me was I DID NOT move in. So which one is it? At this point, it is clear you are just making up things as you go so you can charge me. 3. With all of the above stated charges, you still refuse to refund my 600 USD deposit, for what reason? 4. On July 7th, when we inspected the apartment, we immediately asked for the fans to be replaced. They refused. We asked to cancel the lease. They said we can cancel, but it has to be done immediately. We complied and canceled immediately. 5. A day later, after THEIR OWN measurements showed THEIR OWN noise violation, they tried to glaslight us saying the apartment is fine. They can try to update the fan for us, but it most likely won't change anything. Because they made zero promise to resolve the issue, we insisted on our cancelation. 6. 3 days later, they threatened us saying we broke the lease, and they will be charging us two months rent for breaking the lease; 600 USD for the deposit we already paid; AND they are going to charge me for the application credit of 50 USD I received (see first two points). This experience has been completely insane. I feel like rules are being made up along the way to charge me as much money as possible; these rules came out of no where and were in NO WAY disclosed beforehand.
