I had a great experience on my tour with Samantha! She was kind, knowledgeable, and made the entire process stress-free. I have a pet, and she assured me that the community is pet-friendly--which was a big plus for me. So far, I love the community and will definitely apply once I am ready to move in. Thanks again, Samantha! read more

Lived here for just over 4 years and absolutely loved the place. Convenient location, not a lot of residents, friendly management, always felt safe no matter the time. Management changed a couple of times but the quality remained the same. The package lockers are extremely convenient, rarely runs out of space. Highly recommend read more

My four years of living at 481 Mathilda was mixed. The proximity to downtown made it great for eating out and groceries. The small community was quiet and parking with guests were easy. Jordan is great and responds to maintenance requests in a timely manner. However, there were a number of negative experiences that detracted from my time there. One issue was the trash pickup, which was unreliable and left the hallways smelling unpleasant (~10-15% of the time). The flickering lights in the garage were also a constant annoyance, as they were left unrepaired for months. However, the biggest frustration was the unresponsive property manager, Sandy. It was often difficult to get in touch with her, and even her own employees were unsure of her whereabouts when she was supposed to be in the office. Phone voicemail was always full, and when I did manage to get in touch with her via email, responses were often delayed by several days (see other similar reviews). The move-out process was also a very negative experience, as I was wrongly charged thousands of dollars and it took more than a month to resolve the issue due to Sandy's lack of responsiveness. read more

Don't plan on living here if you want to get charged several thousands of dollars on move out due to the horrible design of the apartment, in particular, the bathroom, where you will be charged for a tub reglaze for regular use of just showering in the tub because of the poor quality of materials. Paint will inevitably rub off because shower tiles were not fully covering the area where water would hit and you will be charged for repaint. They will also charge you for "carpet damage" if it has been stained a bit. Sandy, the property manager has been unresponsive for most of the stay so hard to get ahold of her. Her office is strategically in a little corner where you are unable to see if anyone is in the office, looking from the outside, and it's always locked unless someone from the inside opens it up for you. Trash pickup was really annoying, and you are forced to pay 50 a month for the service. Please just install a trash chute so I can just take out the trash myself to save the money and not having to deal with trash being left out outside the apartment door. There was also always broken glass that I had to be careful avoiding because in the parking lot and the back of the apartment sidewalk and it has never been picked up. read more

We stayed at this building for a year and loved our stay ! The ameneties like digital locker system, daily trash pickup, ( very useful if u have a baby with lots of daily diapers ), the awesome patio lounge area and the clean gym were just some of the things we liked about the building. It is also conveniently located close to Downtown Sunnyvale and far enough from the train station that you dont hear the regular train sounds. Another plus point was the spacious storage lockers - located on the same floor as your apartment. Very convenient ! Infact, even the apartment had a lot of built in storage and cabinets. The only negative if any was that the applicances are a little old style ( coil style stoves ). The management is also very responsive and friendly. Any issues we had were fixed within a day. We especially liked the quarterly parties that the management threw - it was a great way to meet the neighbors and also created a sense of community rather than just an apartment building. read more

This review is long overdue! After 3 years, I had to finally say good bye to 481 on Mathilda. Loved that it's conveniently located to everything, including Trader Joe's and Whole Foods! Lots of gym clubs are nearby, my favorites were club Pilates and orange theory! The property itself is small and quiet, it's maintained very well! Big kuddos to jordan and team, they are always very responsive, and friendly, make you feel like they truly care about the property and residents. Although it's in a almost perfect location, it is a bit noisy with traffic, my apt faced Mathilda, was a bit noisy during rush hour but nothing unmanageable! I will miss you 481 fam! read more

Location is great, and the building's amenities, (business center, gym, welcoming lobby and gorgeous courtyard) are really nice, and always very clean (even smells clean). Very stylish apartments with patios, and a great on-site staff. Both Jordan and Sandy have been very accommodating, friendly and professional. 481 on Mathilda also accept pets which is a big plus! read more

Took a tour today and opted for a 15 month lease - I move in a couple weeks from now. Here's why I signed: 1. Jasmine is incredibly professional and honest. The other reviews are correct - she is really good at her job and walked me through all of my questions. While I was touring I observed how she interacts with her residents and treats everyone so kindly. At the end of the day leasing is a business but I think what sets this community apart is how they treat potential residents. I had questions about the pricing, the internet, the traffic and noise - and what I appreciated most was the candor in response. 2. The community is well-maintained and groomed. I was surprised to learn it was constructed two years ago because having lived in new constructions there tends to be some growing pains with cleanliness. The common areas were remarkably clean. The valet trash service is a nice touch (although a bit strange having never heard of that before). There was ample parking and festive decorations. 3. Location. I scouted the area and found it's got plenty of areas for me to walk my dog. It's close enough to the downtown area but just shy of the crowded areas. Nearby there's good options for food, coffee, and overall seems very dog-friendly. ---- I liked the apartments I toured. Some units (including the one I chose) had very good natural lighting. I'll update this review later. read more

My experience living at 481 on Mathilda has been incredible! I cannot recommend these apartments enough. First of all, management is amazing. They really go out of their way to make sure their residents' needs are met. Princess, the manager, made my move-in process so easy, and she was always available whenever I had a question. Management has also done an excellent job of keeping everyone safe during the pandemic. The building has great amenities, including a business center, community center, and a gym-that I hope to take advantage of as things begin to open back up. The lobby is always clean and smells lovely :) there is also a daily valet trash pickup, and you get a free parking space in the garage (which is unlike many other apartment buildings I had looked at). But my favorite amenity is the courtyard. It is beautiful, and has a fireplace! The location is also unbeatable- you are just a few minutes away from downtown Sunnyvale. Overall, the apartments are beautiful, uniquely have a lot of storage, and are stylish! The patio is also a major plus! If you are looking for a friendly and quiet community with staff that take care of you, I would highly suggest looking into living here! read more

Beautiful modern apartments. Great location, can walk downtown. Well kept property, thanks to Jordan!

I've truly enjoyed my experience of living at 481 on Mathilda. The small size of the community (approximately 100 units) creates a safe and friendly environment that allows for residents to get to know their neighbors. As Marie mentioned in her Yelp review, the apartments are brand-new, beautiful and stylish. In addition, the community amenities are modern, convenient, and well-maintained. I've especially enjoyed working out in the fitness studio and relaxing in the clubhouse and courtyard. The location of the community is also excellent. It's adjacent to the Sunnyvale Public Library, less than a 10 minute walk from Target and Trader Joe's, and less than a 15 minute walk from Murphy Street and the CalTrain station. While the community, amenities, and location warrant a 5-star rating in and of themselves, what sets 481 on Mathilda apart is the caliber of the property management team. Throughout my entire experience of living at 481 on Mathilda, Molly and Cathy have been nothing short of exceptional. Both of them are very professional (e.g., knowledgeable, helpful, reliable, etc.), but also very personable (i.e., kind, friendly, understanding, etc.). They truly care about each of the residents in the community and it shows. I think 481 on Mathilda is one of the best apartment communities in the South Bay and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new place to call home. read more

Great place nice and quiet and clean place I could call home staff is friendly and kind safe and very close to downtown

We have been living here for about 2 years now and I have to sAy it is one of nicest apartment complexes i have stayed in. As the reviews before me state, the amenities, design and convience alone warrant a 5 star but to add to that the management staff is an absolute pleasure. Jasmine is just incredible at making sure the residents feel at home. Cannot thank her enough for the countless times she has come to our rescue. read more

I moved into 481 on Mathilda recently and I have to say that I love it! I love being the first person to live in my brand new apartment. The building is beautiful and stylish, the fitness center has everything I need and I love entertaining in the lounge. My friends are so impressed with how close I am to downtown! The manager, Molly, has been incredible every step of the way since I first walked in. The people who live here are also very nice. The only downside is that sometimes if it's very windy, it could be a little bit noisy, but it's not that big of a deal. I would definitely recommend this place. read more
