    Aldo and Dennis are great maintenance guys! Super helpful and they work weekends! They helped me change a tire on a Saturday which wasn't even their job to do ! Great place to live, great people who work there A

    I'm 5'2". And standing upright under the shower head...

    I'm not looking for a response from the Irvine Company, I'm just telling my story. I've lived a lot of places including Brookline and Cambridge MA and Beverly Hills and West Hollywood CA, and for the price I pay here I am not entirely sure this is worth it. The Irvine Company charges a lot for rent, adds pet rent, pet deposit, regular deposit, then you have to pay all your utilities; electric, water and sewer, gas, and also a community fee for community water bill and trash. No utilities included. It's nice here, but not that nice. San Remo is older and decently maintained. The landscaping is cute. The park attached is nice. An Hmart will soon be across the street. There is a nice large park and community center a block away. Convenient to Jamboree Rd and the highways without being right under them. I guess it depends where you work how much you appreciate this location. Me I'm on the fence. My apt has bugs, carpet beetles and silverfish. I have a lot of books so this is a nightmare. They sent someone to spray, and apparently he is here EVERY WEEK, but at this price I shouldn't have to have someone spray. If bugs are a known issue why isn't a unit sprayed BEFORE a new tenant moves in? Neighbors don't pick up their dog shit, there is another one that lets their dog pee on the porch. There are feral and/or outdoor neighbor cats that pee and stink up the gardens. Apparently coyotes run around at night. (I haven't seen one but a neighbor warned me about them eating little dogs left on porches or off leash) There are also bunnies, hummingbirds, and nice shade trees. The park has a grill, tables, play ground and well kept bathrooms. There's one assigned covered parking spot and one open space permit spot per unit. There are two pools and two laundry facilities The laundry on site is pricey... 4.50 for a single load of laundry, 2.25 each washer and dryer, like small single load... it's decently clean tho and the washers do not smell musty. The pools are nice and there's a jacuzzi thing, business center is convenient to have for printing paper, and they have propane grills pool side. San Remo does NOT have a fitness center. The first floor porch is nice and spacious. The outdoor storage closet is pretty decent size. The upstairs units look like they have high ceilings. Windows are nice and big. The carpet is nice and plush, not cheap thread bare stuff you find elsewhere. Dishwashers and appliances are nice and well maintained. Maybe I have quiet neighbors but the unit seems pretty decently sound resistant to external noise. The kitchen sinks are too shallow to wash pots and pans. The shower heads are super low. Anyone who is NOT a shorty be ware! Check my picture, I'm 5'2" and I barely fit under the shower head. You get central air and heat, but be sure you look at the actual unit you want because the a/c units can be right outside your bedroom window, and they're old and loud. They work fine and you don't notice inside, but if you like your windows open in the summer double check the a/c location to your window. The folks at Resident Services are nothing but helpful, super nice and responsive, but they're limited in what they can do or say because the Irvine Company has strict standards. I honestly will probably renew my lease if they don't jack up the price next year. But In My whole adult life of rental history the unit itself is not really worth the price I pay. The premium price tag is just being in Irvine which is super convenient to my work. I guess I accept the high price for the short commute.

    13 minutes agoNEW Moved into my apartment less than 30 days. It was immediately apparent that there is a horrible ant infestation. For the money that we pay in rent it is not worth having this problem. We keep everything sealed and have purchase bug spray, sprayed vinegar, and clean constantly. However, the ant infestation grows worse each day. Please save your money and do not rent an apartment here

    Beautiful place to live. Great staff -literally every one of them- specially Ramiro Alba! Our community is spotless because of him and many others like him. Thank you for the great living experience

    They provided a Mother's Day dessert bar which was really nice and really surprised my mom who was visiting.

    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.

    Overall, the property is excellent. A few things stand out right away, starting with the gym. It is…read moreexceptional and feels like a space people genuinely enjoy being in, even beyond working out. The rooftop pools are beautiful, though they can get busy with kids on weekends. It would be great to see one designated as adults only. The dog park looks like a great feature for those with social dogs. Ours is a bit older and not quite as enthusiastic about the younger crowd, but it is still a nice amenity to have. That said, the best part of this complex is the leadership, especially Johnny, the General Manager. Well-run properties always have strong leadership behind them, and that is very evident here. When we moved in, Johnny personally made sure everything was taken care of, from small adjustments to the overall move-in experience. Greystar is fortunate to have someone like him leading the property. If you are considering living here, I would absolutely recommend it. My wife and I have been very happy with our experience.

    I'm really conflicted writing this because my boyfriend and I actually like our apartment and the…read moreoverall vibe here, but the amount of misinformation we've dealt with in just 4 months is honestly unacceptable. When we were apartment hunting, a huge selling point was being told that each leaseholder would get 7 guest parking permits a month. It sounded like a decent plus to the nightmare parking situation (virtually no guest spots or street parking in general; $150/month for an extra parking spot with a year-long waitlist). Instead, we found out the leasing agent completely LIED to us--it's actually 7 permits PER household, not PER person. I know we did not mishear this during the leasing process and that we were explicitly told we would receive 21 permits in total for the 3 leaseholders we had for our unit. When I brought this up, management admitted we were lied to, but they didn't even offer a single solution or credit for the $10-per-pass fee we're now stuck with. It feels like they'll say anything just to get a lease signed. The lack of communication between the office and security is just as frustrating. I've been kicked out of the "24-hour" business center TWICE by security because they weren't told the correct hours. I actually had to email a leasing agent myself and show the security guard the email on my phone just so she'd believe me--and even then, she took a photo of it like she still didn't trust me. It shouldn't be the resident's job to train the building's security on their own amenities! On top of that, we've already had to re-sign our entire lease two months after moving in because the office messed up the numbers on the original documents. While the unit itself is modern and I appreciate the gym and the package lockers, the "unseen"parts of living here are exhausting. The fire alarms go off at 3 AM for no reason, the power has flickered out multiple times, and it took around a week to get a working microwave when ours died. I still have 11 months left on my lease, and I'm genuinely worried about what else was a lie or what else will break. I'm mostly upset that they admitted we were lied to by their agent and took no action to make it right with us. If you're looking to move here, I'd suggest getting every single promise in writing, because their verbal word doesn't seem to be honest. I will keep this updated.

The lobby/leasing office/mail area really makes a grand impression when you first see it and it stands out above every other complex that I have toured. Flooring/thickness: 2/5 Soundproofing of the flooring in the unit above gets a 0/5 You will hear a dog running back and forth. You can definitely hear anyone without slippers or if they drop something on the floor. and it's horrible if they have people over. Luck of the draw here of your neighbor. I was lucky the first 24 months, but now I have to move because of this as talking to them didn't help. It's "just apartment living" is how it's dismissed. It's constant sounds 16 hours a day now and unlivable for me as it constantly occupies your attention even until 2 AM. You will need to get a top floor as the noise leaks through. The adjacent wall sound isolation gets a 4.5/5 You will rarely hear them unless a sound speaker is cranked up or if the sounds leak in from the hallway. Noise pollution: 2/5 -Outside facing apartments will get the freeway noises of loud cars racing down the freeway. -Mall facing apartments will get loud cars without mufflers and motorcycles. -Inside facing apartments will get parties or pool sounds and kids screaming Air Quality: 3/5 Obviously close to the freeway, you can see black particulate that isn't dust build up atop your car. Ventilation fans and the front door also pull in smoke and grilling smell from people cooking in the patio if your apartment is in the path of the natural draft. Mail / Locker system: 5/5 Mail, Package lockers, and a package room Garage / EV Charging: 5/5 More Charging spots and setups than other complexes Blind spot mirrors around corners installed Spots are decent sized Keys / Access: 5/5 FOB or App/phone entry. No keys or code panel entry. On-site Leasing Office and Patrol: 5/5 They're onsite and responsive. Most places are outsourced, or off-site. Overnight patrol as well for security. Charles is great at the leasing office and helped me with a transfer. Intrusiveness: 3/5 Odd one but they will need to enter your apartment even if you are not home almost every 2 months due to annual inspections with more than two days notice: Fire Alarm, HVAC, Dryer Cleaning, Water Meter, Smoke Alarm, Appliance Inspection, etc. Walkability: 3.5/5 The closed off wellsfargo lot and missing sidewalk, and mall construction lower the score a bit for the area around, but there is still a mall you can walk through. The closed off wells fargo & missing sidewalk somewhat impedes the walkability to the local mother's market and chipotle. This remains a 4/5 after touring 18 more complexes in the local 10 miles. The score stays high as I've chosen to move within the complex for a continued stay and to avoid the annoyance and costs of fully moving. If you are sensitive to noise, this might lower to a 3/5. If I were not already here, this would still be in the top 3. It takes a lot for someone to review or bother to update one but i am annoyed enough to do so.

I would NOT recommend living here unless you like way overpaying for a cheap build and a shoebox. The pool was nice thats, the only reason its getting a 2/5.

I initially lived in one of the outer apartments right next to the garages/dumpsters, but moved to an upstairs unit that was in the middle of the complex, Unit J1. Highly recommend both upstairs and middle complex because of the foot traffic and garages opening and closing. The walls are thin, that's just apartment living. Luckily I got one neighbor who was never home and my downstairs neighbor didn't mind my clogging practice. Really convenient having both in unit washer and dryers and multiple laundromats around. I never had an issue if I wanted to wash my duvet, the were never full. They also have a filtered water bottle filling station in the laundromat over by J1. Not sure if they have them in the others in the complex. (you're welcome). Sometimes I drive by just to reminisce on old times. The only small issue I had was with my deposit. When I moved out they tried to charge me for a cleaning fee, but I left my place spotless. Management companies in CA can charge a cleaning fee, but only to restore the unit to the same level of cleanliness it was in at the start of your tenancy. They cant cover "ordinary wear and tear". I ended up getting it refunded no problem, but just something to watch for.
