Ron was really understanding and worked with us to find a solution that worked for everyone. It's clear that he genuinely cares about the people who live here, and that makes all the difference. Overall, I'd definitely recommend SpringWood to anyone looking for a great place to live. -- from Kehan and Yuwei

I lived at Springwood from 2013 to 2017, and then moved in again, living there from March 2018 to…read moreSeptember 2022. I wish I could write a better review but I'm so disappointed by what was previously a great place to rent. The buildings are quite dated and the updates that have been made are of the cheapest quality. The old carpeting in the buildings was replaced last year...we all thought what had been placed was the liner and the installation people would be returning to lay the actual carpet. No...the carpet is just that thin and it causes sound to reverberate through the halls. The vinyl flooring in some units is cheap quality and poorly installed, so that it's constantly lifting. They continue to permit cigarette smoking on patios and balconies, and public areas around the site, which means there's smoke coming in through the windows, patio/balcony doors, and vents, regardless of whether you smoke. The complex spent three years and a lot of money to update the property, with the pool and hot tub, bbq area, and clubhouse were all unavailable during this time. The big reveal after all the work reflected that the only thing changed for residents was a nicer bbq area. The pool and hot tub, and all the chaises, tables, and umbrellas are the same that have been there since my initial residency. The clubhouse, which is only open during the management's working hours (unless reserved for a private event), is gorgeous but the main change is a remodel of the office space. The management and facilities staff are the only people who use the "clubhouse," and in great part due to the hours it's accessible as well as the fact that whenever someone goes in there, it feels as if you're interrupting the office staff having their breaks, hanging out and snacking, etc. All the parking spots were redesignated this past year as "assigned" spots, in a clear attempt to increase income for the management company. Residents must pay an additional fee monthly to reserve a spot, covered or not, and there are virtually no unassigned spots for additional resident cars or guests. The office staff regularly "patrol" the parking area for parkers who aren't "registered" and when discovering someone, send an email blast to the entire community calling out the car's identifying details and threatening to have the vehicle towed within a certain number of minutes if it's not moved. During weekends, the Springwood staff tend to park in the spots reserved for "new residents." Management sends email frequently admonishing residents that they've "been told" they cannot have anything on their balconies/patios, hallways, lobbies, etc. as if the residents are young children. I don't like when people break rules meant to ensure people's enjoyment of their rented home either, but there's a way to do this respectfully and a way to make people feel bad. When there are problems with the laundry room machines, the office staff will not assist. The response is that they haven't been trained on how to use the equipment or its software and residents have to contact the vendor (which never seems to result in a response). A dryer has been non-functional for months but despite numerous requests, the management staff have done nothing to ensure that it's repaired or replaced. With only 4 washers and 4 dryers per building, having one out of order creates a difficult situation for residents trying to do their laundry. On the plus side, the maintenance staff are without exception friendly and responsive. The apartments are in a great location and the people living there are generally quite nice, but there are few amenities and the management staff sometimes make residents feel like interlopers.

I previously lived in The Meadows for 7 years until I bought a house and moved out. My workplace is…read moreclose-by, and sometimes after lunch we walk through the outside ring parking to reach Middlefield and return to the office. 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.

Lived in meadows apartment for a year and it was great! The greenery and all the beautiful trees…read moremade the complex feel like a little forest. Meadows is very safe and it's also in a good location - it is right off of Central expressway and it's close to 237 and 101. Apartment was spacious as well. I also thought the gym was great and bigger than a lot of other apartment gyms so amenities as good here. There is a community pool as well. The management company was very responsive with service requests. We had an issue where the central AC was spewing out dead bugs so the maintenance team quickly came in and gave us a new AC. Meadows also hosts some events every couple months (coffee station, Easter egg hunt, food trucks, etc.) which made the apartment complex feel more like a community. One of the drawbacks about this complex is the lack of natural light in the some of the apartments. Because of all the tall redwood trees and the direction of our apartment, we didn't get much light. For the most part, we had our lamps turned on all the time. And because of the trees, leaves would fall into our balcony so we had to frequently clean that up. We decided to leave once the lease was up as we found a place with more natural light closer to our offices and meadows was going to increase the rent by $250 a month. If it wasn't for the light situation, probably would have continued to stay here. Overall I enjoyed living here, and if you are ok with less natural light or you are able to get an apartment facing the right direction, then I recommend!

Sirens, honking, and loud engines make it hard to sleep or even relax during the day.

This homeless community causes a lot of disturbance on the daily from loitering, package theft and constant car break ins.

Maintenance requests take weeks (or longer) to get addressed, and management is dismissive whenever you bring up legitimate concerns. The amenities sound great on paper, but they're often broken or closed without notice. Hallways and common areas aren't kept clean, and it feels like management cares more about appearance for tours than for people actually living here. For what you pay, the level of service and respect toward tenants is unacceptable. Save yourself the frustration--there are better options nearby that treat residents like people, not profit margins.

If something needs fixing, it is quickly fixed before you can bat an eyelash. 3) YOU ARE SAFE! For those of us with a little anxiety about safety - when you lay awake at night, you can sleep knowing you are safe, I do indeed count my blessings (and the locks). They take security seriously, and that's why I absolutely could live at Balmoral forever. 4) I echo the other reviews, they treat their tenants with the utmost respect and their warmth, just makes you feel happy to have landed in this spot of the universe. 4. A bit about the building: its surroundings are always kept clean and beautifully manicured. The interiors have top trimmings, from self-closing toilet lids, to timers for the ceiling fan, to perfectly sealed storage units, bike locker and your very own parking spot! 5. Proximity - TO EVERYTHING! take a stroll to Monticello - and you have a good variety of food, the quaint Nob Hill store, Orange Theory, Vitality Bowls, Hair Cuts, KonJoe Burger, Indian Cuisine, CPK and Starbucks. Best of luck in your search, although if you are reading this, then you are already in the right place.
