    I lived at McFadden Village Apartments for almost three years, and I couldn't have been happier with my experience. The community is beautifully maintained, offering a perfect blend of comfort and convenience. It is also pet-friendly, which is a huge plus for all the pet lovers out there! The amenities, including the pool, jacuzzi, and small gym, are always clean and well-kept, providing a great place to unwind and stay active. McFadden Village is very close to the freeway entrances, and stores like Costco, Albertsons, Hmart, Trader Joe's, Aldi, Target, Walmart and you name it. Downtown Tustin is about 5 minutes/less away (lots of great restaurants, bakery and coffee shops to try) which makes it even better. A big part of what makes McFadden Village such a fantastic place to live is the incredible staff. Andreea, the Property Manager, goes above and beyond to ensure that everything runs smoothly. She is always approachable and quick to address any questions or concerns, making residents feel valued and heard. Her professionalism and dedication really stand out, and it's clear that she genuinely cares about the community. Mr. Oh (I believe that's what he goes by), the Maintenance Technician, is another gem in this community. He is prompt, efficient, and always does an amazing job with any maintenance requests. Whether it's a minor issue or something more complex, Mr. Oh handles everything very quickly and efficiently. Thanks to his hard work, the entire property is tidy and well-maintained, contributing to the overall pleasant living experience. (Not to mention his wife, she is also super sweet too!) I will definitely miss this place and I highly recommend McFadden Village Apartments to anyone looking for a great place to call home!

    I lived at McFadden village for almost 6 years. It was my first apartment on my own. I felt safe there and it was quiet and peaceful. Andreea, the property manager does an amazing job and really has the place running smoothly. She really puts in a lot of effort to ensure her tenants are happy. I also never had to wait long for maintenance, they are on it unlike some other complexes I've lived in. I would have stayed longer here but my boyfriend and I moved together into a bigger place but I'll miss it. If you are looking for a nice place to live and that's pet friendly, definitely check this place out!

    My cozy studio!

    I lived here for almost two years and had an amazing experience. Andreea is the main reason why! I had few problems while living here but the few requests/issues I had, she responded immediately. Everything was always taken care of as quickly as possible. The community in general is great as well! I felt safe living there and loved being so close to Old Town Tustin. Also only about 10-15 mins from UCI, and 10-15 minutes from Newport which is amazing. The community was super quiet too! And Andreea makes sure that the grounds are well-maintained so it always looks so beautiful around the complex. Also never had a package stolen or anything. In general everyone in the community is super respectful. This was my first apartment on my own and it was perfect. I also really appreciate how cozy the apartment was, and how I was really able to make it my own. Highly recommend!

    My husband and I will have lived here for a week shy of 2 years by the time we move out in a few weeks. Our experience here has outweighed our expectations and we're so happy we chose McFadden Village Apartments as our first solo living as a married couple. The complex is very pet friendly (we have a rabbit and a cat), and neighbors are always walking their friendly dogs. If we could stay longer, we would. Work and personal endeavors are taking us up north and eventually out of state. But our time here will always be treasured. From day one, the property manager, Andreea Padurean, has been very kind, honest, responsible, and always a text away. There was never more than a few days' wait for any maintenance requests to be fixed. And if there was, it was due to personal availability conflicts. (They're always able to come in and fix the issues if you're not home, but I prefer to be ). You have the option to pay for a 2nd uncovered parking spot, if availability permits (which has been great for our larger car). Just keep in mind that if you turn down your spot, there's a waitlist you'll have to go on to get one down the road. So if you need one or can afford it, get one. We made the mistake of giving ours away in the beginning and it took around a year to finally get another one. The only con I have about living here was the garage break-ins that happened awhile back. Multiple garages were targeted over the course of a few months, ours being one of them. Whoever it was, stole over a grand worth of personal belongings that we had to deal with insurance to cover and replace. Yes, we had a lock. And yes, some other residents did too. That didn't stop the thieves since they cut the whole metal latch off the door itself. Obviously this isn't something the complex management can control. And they do give you a fair share of warnings about not leaving anything valuable in the garages. Some residents have nothing in theirs, while others have packed spaces. It's ultimately up to you, but just know that like with anywhere else, theft can happen so be smart about how and where you store your belongings. There's no rules against smoking of any kind, so be mindful that your neighbors may be tobacco or marijuana users. My favorite part of living here has been how quiet it's been. No loud noise, no screaming kids, no arguing couples or families. Literal peace and quiet, which is more than we'd ever hoped for. We came from living at a luxury apartment to McFadden Village and we had kinder and quieter neighbors here than we did at our previous apartment. The property is ALWAYS clean. Gardeners and landscapers come regularly to maintain all the foliage and keep the walkways accessible. Having a gym on site has been very nice and helpful. It's small, but definitely does the job. We've loved the pool, but the jacuzzi definitely needs some updating. We've gone many many times and the water is never hot enough. It's lukewarm, at best. Overall, we've loved it here. Aside from the garage incident, it's been paradise and we'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. No place is ever going to be perfect, but this was more than enough for what we hoped for and wanted. And trust me when I say that Andreea is the best property manager you could ask for. If it existed, I'd probably win the award for the most resident texts to her over these past 2 years lol (oops ). But for real, there wasn't ever an issue she didn't do her best to try and help me with or fix on the spot and I'm very grateful for how helpful and kind she's been! You won't regret living here!

    The grounds are well maintained and a fun place for dogs to meet

    I am coming up on two years living here. I love it! Community is friendly, my neighbors are the best. Quiet place to live, close to freeway, and the manager is always willing to help in any way she can. Community gifts and activities are nice as well. Parking is a little tight, but probably why it stays quiet. I live in a one bedroom and it has plenty of space for what I need. I enjoy living in a clean well kept property with great people. If you are looking to live in Tustin I recommend getting on the waitlist asap. It's a great place to call home.

    A happy dog to have lots of dog friends in the community!

We had rats coming to our empty 3rd floor patio repeatedly for over a year. Management offered nothing but sticky traps. We ended up getting real traps and killing 4. They reimbursed us $50, but we spent so much more than that combating this. Multiple neighbors had rats get in their cars. I would see rats running on the paths when I got home at night. I was told by the office that outdoors is a "rat's domain" and there was nothing they could do. I think they may have added more rat boxes, but they wouldn't put them in visible areas and the landscaping is a cover of bushes that is perfect for rats to hide in. - constantly entering your apartment. At times, it would be every single month. If a vendor came in, they always left things worse than before (drywall I had to vacuum up, cracked shower sealant, paint dripping on AC vents). If it was someone from the office, I am convinced they were spying. We once received a notice to remove our bidet after an inspection that did not even need to enter the restroom. It felt like being in college and living in a dorm room. - office seemed unorganized. I wasn't able to get the manager's contact info for over a year. You are usually left talking to whoever is on duty in the office and sending emails to a general email address. So many times I would call the office with an issue I had talked with them about before and the person on the other line had no idea what I was talking about. They seemed to only use their email inbox to keep track of resident issues, yet I still had many emails go unanswered. Positives: - maintenance was speedy and always did a good job. James is the best and always kept it real. - the surrounding area felt very safe. I loved the walking path on jamboree right outside the complex. - the complex was very quiet! Neighbors were always respectful of each other.

    The Row is legit. This is coming from me who has exquisite…read moretaste in pretty much anything and everything. Just being honest. Facts are facts. I've lived in some of the nicest most luxurious apartment communities in Orange County including Halcyon House, One uptown Newport and the Royce. Even though some of the others have better "location" there is no disputing that. I believe the row has the best bang for your buck and overall the best experience. Lived at The Row at Red Hill for about a year now and it's been a great call. Location is hard to beat -- quick access to the 55 and 5, and having the onsite retail means a lot of errands happen without ever getting in the car. The amenities here are genuinely top notch -- the gym and fitness area are some of the best I've had at an apartment community, and the rooftop pools are a huge win, especially living in SoCal. Those two alone get a ton of use from me and they're kept up well, which honestly matters more day-to-day than people expect. The gym is probably as good as it gets for OC as far as apartment communities are concerned. But the real reason I'm writing this is Jose and Margarita. Jose handles the outdoor common areas -- streets, the dog park, landscaping -- and it's obvious he takes pride in it. The man does not play around, he does the job perfectly. The grounds always look sharp, not just "fine." Margarita covers the parking garage and building hallways, and same thing: consistently clean, no slacking, every single day. It's easy for property management to talk about amenities and community, but what actually makes a place livable is people like Jose and Margarita showing up and doing the work right, day in and day out. That's the difference between an apartment complex that looks good in photos and one that's actually well run. This one's the latter, and a big part of that is them. Honorable mention to everyone else. The leasing staff as well as resident relations team are always super nice and professional. Five stars, easy recommend.

    My wife and I moved into The Row approximately one month ago, and unfortunately, our experience has…read morebeen extremely disappointing--especially considering this is the most expensive apartment community we have ever lived in. Since moving in, we have dealt with an ongoing ant infestation throughout our unit, primarily in the kitchen. We have found ants around the stove, microwave, cabinets, countertops, and numerous other areas. This is not an occasional ant or two; it has been a persistent problem that has made us extremely uncomfortable in our own home. Management has sent pest control to our unit twice. The first treatment did little, if anything, to improve the problem. Pest control returned two days later, and we were instructed to leave our home for four hours following the treatment. What concerned me most was how quickly the second visit appeared to be completed. After letting the technician into the unit, I left to walk my dog and briefly stopped at our vehicle on the second floor to drop something off. I was at my vehicle for approximately 30 seconds. By the time I reached the first floor, the technician was already downstairs with me. Based on that timeline, he could not have been inside our unit for more than a couple of minutes. I do not understand how an entire unit with a widespread infestation could have been thoroughly inspected and treated in that amount of time. I have repeatedly expressed my concerns to the leasing office, but the only solution offered has been to send pest control back yet again. No meaningful alternative, cleaning assistance, rent or fee consideration, or other accommodation has been offered despite the continued disruption. I work from home and have meetings and important deadlines throughout the day. I cannot repeatedly vacate my home for four hours only to have someone seemingly spend a couple of minutes inside without resolving the problem. It's already been 2 times and there's no improvement and quite frankly, it seems like a "sucks it's your problem, but thankfully it's not mine" type of mentality. At this price point, we expected a much higher level of service and responsiveness. Instead, we feel that once our lease was signed and our rent was secured, our concerns stopped being treated with urgency. We are not asking for special treatment--we are asking for effective pest control and a management response that reflects the amount residents are paying to live here. I've had a PLETHORA of ants crawling on my back, face, etc. and I'm over it. Based on our experience during our first month, I strongly recommend that prospective residents ask detailed questions about pest problems and how management handles unresolved maintenance issues before signing a lease. I sincerely hope management takes meaningful action to resolve this situation, and I will update this review if the problem is properly addressed.

Unfortunately, my most recent experience was very disappointing. Last Sunday, when we arrived at the clubhouse for our reservation, someone was still eating there--even though it was hours before my scheduled time. I immediately called the office, and they assured me someone would come to clean up and place a reserved sign. No one ever showed up. On top of that, I was charged for a terrace reservation that I never used. There was never an agreement emailed to me, even though I was told one would be sent. Because no agreement was provided and the terrace was not utilized, I shouldn't be responsible for those charges. I've already called the office to have this reviewed, and was told someone would get back to me, but I'm still waiting. To make matters worse, I made another reservation for October for my daughter's upcoming birthday. I've called three separate times for confirmation and follow-up, and each time I was told I'd receive a call back. No one has ever called. For the amount of money residents are paying for this community and these reservations, the lack of professionalism and follow-through is extremely disappointing.

From the beginning, the leasing staff--particularly Ariel--demonstrated extremely poor customer service and a lack of communication. Despite submitting multiple complaints and maintenance requests from day one, nothing was ever resolved. The condition of the apartment was unacceptable: there were spider webs inside the oven, bugs in the refrigerator, chipped paint, dirty carpet, blinds that didn't fit, and a torn window screen. I bombed the apartment twice due to the overwhelming number of bugs, yet the problem persisted daily. Clearly, there is no reliable pest control in place. Because of the conditions, I never felt comfortable living in the unit. I didn't even assemble my beds or fully move in my belongings. Every time I tried to contact the leasing office, it was another frustrating experience--calls often went unanswered, and when someone did pick up, I was told I'd receive a follow-up that never came. To make matters worse, at move-out I was charged for pre-existing issues that I had already documented with photos and emails from the very first day. Kevin, a leasing agent who falsely claimed to be a manager, even conducted a move-out inspection two days before my lease ended, taking photos of my boxed belongings and unassembled bed. I was then charged a "bed fee," something I have never heard of in any apartment complex. When I asked for the corporate office's number to escalate these issues, I was never provided it. I also formally disputed the charges from my checkout inspection, but management pacifically Kevin refused to remove them--even though they were for damages and problems that existed before I ever moved in. Even during the final walkthrough with the unit completely empty, there were still bugs everywhere--further proof of how poorly this property is maintained. I would never recommend this apartment complex. It is unprofessional, unsanitary, and completely mismanaged.

After a month we called back and were told "yeah there's no list. That doesn't exist. We definitely did not say that". Yeah okay, I heard it from STEVE, and NICK, and someone else. But Nick said "no that doesn't exist". Three months after living here they placed a construction yard in our parking lot. Took up half the spaces, guess how long the project was for? 18 months. 18 MONTHS!! Of roofing repairs, construction, men hanging out in the parking lot (most of them are respectful, but often there's those two or three who stare at women like the women are pieces of meat). TO ADD TO THIS the parking spaces around the roof they are working on cannot be occupied during work hours for 6 weeks. But the cones are up all the time. With no time mentioned, so everyone moves their cars to the limited parking spaces near the construction zone. Oh! Also the construction doesn't just mean Monday through Friday, it also means Saturday's really early in the morning. But the woman in charge, Celine, says "there's nothing we can do about any of it". And the moment I said something all of a sudden I catch her watching my apartment multiple times. Like even saying anything against this, gets you dirty looks. Don't even get me started on the gossip! This woman and man who are leading this project, get into a whole lot of spats and disagreements. But boy do they bond over a difficult tenant. Also, I called her boss and I got someone who cussed at me stating "we did not think "hey let's f*ck you over" we just signed the contract!!!" Like a man yelling like a toddler or a middle school child arguing with their parent is the vibes it was giving. In three months they signed a contract with a company who has employees who bark at women and children. The company themselves said "We have told them not to bark at tenants before" EXCUSE ME?!? But if that's not enough they have to inconvenience the tenants at every change they get. In the past week, they have done a three day concrete pouring job that they don't even inform anyone about. There are just cones that appear that say you cannot park here for three days. They're also doing a bi annual tree cutting the very next week, that one they told us about. But the week after I'm sure will be when they check fire sprinklers, or the air filters. I sorta wish they could do it all one week. Sorta all the maintenance just done in one fell swoop. Also their dog park is just a patch of grass, one of three patches of grass. All open, with a doggy bag station designating it a dog park. Everything here sucks, the pool is heated only during summer, they close one week a month, they never have to pool hall open. Never. Even when you request it. My entire time here I saw one party ONE PARTY. Otherwise is always locked. So at face it's pretty, but it stays that way because no one can go into it. This property alone, has put me off of Irvine Company apartments. Would I recommend you live here? No. Also, you pay for everything. Any amenities, you're paying for. Oh! But also, they don't have garbage bins in every garbage zone.

Matter of fact, I'm gonna go back and say it was not nearly as bad as Irvine company.
