Temescal is an okay to decent place to live. Here are the pros and cons that I found while living…read morehere. Pros: - Access to the G and J bus lines is amazing - The garden areas that surround the building are really quite nice. I loved all of the lizards that were running around and the greenery was refreshing - Nicole + the rotating office staff were always really, really nice and professional. They were always able to answer my questions and were quick to get us help with maintenance - The shopping center down the street is really nice to have - The room sizes are very good, whether you're sharing or having a single room and nothing about the rooms other than the blinds and closet blinds are outdated. Very spacious closets too! - The website used for paying rent is very easy to use and intuitive. Just be careful setting up if you choose to set up a monthly recurring payment, it can accidentally pay for the entire amount even if you specify an amount. Cons: - Near constant bugs + rodent problems. The office gave us glue traps, but our unit was constantly seeing earwigs, and the occasional mouse or cockroach. I really hated having to throw away glue traps full of bugs or ones with mice. - The wood stove in our unit was not removed since we joined an existing lease. It was an eyesore and potentially a fire danger. - The kitchen is extremely outdated and gross. The countertops were this ugly black and white speckle, which made it impossible to see messes on it. The stove is outdated and the pantries are gross from years of wear and tear. - The shower did not get refinished until a month before we moved out, and it was super gross as well. Just old and not well-kept. Our bathroom also constantly got mold since there was no window in there and the door would just close and not stay open. - Very far from downtown and a lot of other things in Davis. - The AC was terrible. It couldn't detect the temperature upstairs so we would have to crank it really low for it to do anything, causing our PGE to be really expensive during the warmer months. - The maintenance people would always make our floors really gross (mud, grime, etc.) so I was hesitant to report issues since I didn't want to clean up after them. - The laundry machines would constantly break, not accepting coins or not doing a good job drying stuff. There are lots of machines, but I was never surprised to see 2-4 machines down. They ate a lot of my quarters. - WiFi worked well in some rooms, but not in others. I know they are upgrading the WiFi, but it had not been improved before we left. We paid $60/month for it, but it was free our last month due to the change. Overall, I didn't completely hate my time at temescal, but there are plenty of reasons why I didn't choose to renew my lease.

I lived here about 2 years ago. It's a pretty loud complex because they have so many units, but it…read moreis in a convenient location. Units are either 1 or 2 stories, depending on how many rooms there are. For the places that are 2 stories, the downstairs has one bedroom, a bathroom, the kitchen, and the living area. Upstairs is the other bathroom and bedrooms. Overall, it's a nice set up. The stoves are also gas, not electric. There is also a pool and a hottub which is nice. There is a main laundry room and then at least one other smaller one. You may want to do your laundry at odd times to avoid having to wait. Sometimes in the evening or on the weekends all the machines are full. There's plenty of parking; no reserved spaces. And there's an overflow gravel lot behind the place is all the spaces are taken. The bus stop is also right in front of the place.

Where to start with this place... First, the good: Good…read morefloor plan. I got a 2-story townhouse and loved the change from my previous apartment's 1-story layout. Was also fortunate to have a washer and drier in-unit, a major plus! The walkways outside of the apartment are also very, very nice. If you're moving in, take a morning or evening to just go for a walk behind the complex. The trails are as intricate as they are enjoyable. You'll be amazed at where they lead and what they connect to. Then the bad: The condition of my apartment when I moved in was crummy. The bedroom floors were dirty, the floors stained, so much leftover furniture (some of it, like a leftover dining table, was a plus) and belongings, missing blinds, and the sliding door in my room was off the rails. Could never get the apartment looking 100% clean because of the previous tenants and that was a major peeve. And, like at Chautauqua, it was common for neighbors or people in complexes across the street to host loud parties late at night/very early in the morning. Services and amenities were good, though. Maintenance was prompt, nice pool, nice laundromat. The greatest annoyances were the dirtiness of the apartment when I moved in (which never seemed to bother the complex itself, much to my dismay) and the proximity to loud parties. I genuinely hope that you get an apartment unit that's in better condition than mine was.

A lot more to just mainly on the poor maintenance quality. They also did their annual check thing a couple months too early, painting my walls before I can move out.. just make sure you listen to them when they tell you about the 24 hour lease turnover lol. Oh yeah and my stove blew up cooking a pizza, also they won't listen to you if your dryer isn't drying things properly so maybe you'll listen to this, it's not the dryers that need fixing it's your guy's horrible ventilation and tubes probably need cleaning.

BUT they have plenty of washers/dryers I'm just wishing! They've always responded back to emails and they always care about their residents! Maintenance guys are super cool and accommodating. I barely put in a work order and majority of the time, it's done the same day but never more than a couple days max! Office gals like to mix it up with gatherings for our Anderson Place Community! They like to have good times, food, prizes, and a lot of other creative activities throughout the year! Nobody's left out even when they have certain food for college events, like midterms and finals, everyone is still welcome!

The absolute worst apartment complex. First management is terrible and very unprofessional. She is…read morevery rude when you put in a work order and if you need to order any parts, goodluck trying to get the maintenance man to return. I have never met such a rude landlord. She preys on college students and their "lack of knowledge" about renting and is very passive aggressive. Second, the apartment itself is horrible. The buildings are old so they are constantly doing construction. If you are on the first floor, you hear every step of the person on the top floor. The entire apartment gets mold everywhere, especially the bathroom due to the poor ventilation (not a housekeeping issue, it's an apartment issue). The flooring is cheap and sucks. Once you get one thing fix, another thing breaks. And again, the landlord whines about doing her own job. If you consider staying here, goodluck. I can't wait till my lease ends and I never have to step back in this horrible apartment or deal with such an incompetent landlord.

Under California Civil Code §1950.5(g), landlords have exactly 21 days to return our security deposit or provide an itemized list of deductions. That's the law. They ignored it. We gave them our forwarding address on September 8, 2025, and again on October 15, 2025. The move-out statement they finally sent was dated September 25, 2025--past the legal deadline. Instead of returning our full $600 deposit, they claimed bogus deductions and said we owed them money. We've disputed their charges in writing, over and over, demanding our full deposit back. Have they resolved it? No. Instead, they keep harassing us with repeated phone calls and text messages trying to collect an alleged $171.28 balance--telling us to call them or pay through their online portal. It's now well past the deadline, and we still don't have our $600 back. This is illegal, unprofessional, and unacceptable. Sorrento Apartments has made it clear they don't care about the law or their tenants. Do not rent from them. Zero stars.

We received a move-out statement dated September 25, 2025 that included deductions and indicated a remaining balance rather than returning the full security deposit. Under California law, a security deposit or itemized statement is generally required within 21 days of move-out. Since move-out, we have contacted management regarding the security deposit and requested clarification and return of funds. We have also received multiple phone calls and text messages regarding an alleged remaining balance of $171.28. As of now, the security deposit has not been returned and the matter remains unresolved.

WONDERFUL housing community!! My friends and I were looking for off-campus housing near UC Davis,…read moreand Suntree gave us by far the best tour. The management team, Alisha and Leslie, are absolutely impeccable and are so kind and helpful. They always responded to my texts quickly (within the hour). My friends and I were looking for housing for the first time and they helped us understand a lot of the leasing-process in general and were so friendly throughout our interactions. The Suntree homes themselves feel very homey and have a nice community feel to them. Residents there were all super kind and easy to talk to, and all had great things to say about their time living at Suntree. There are (very yummy and free) snacks, candy, drinks, coffee, and printing all at the front desk as well! As a college student that goes a long way! Great location and Alisha and Leslie were super flexible on pricing since my friends and I were working with a tight budget. The Unitrans bus stop is right on the property and getting to and from campus is a breeze. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Suntree to all prospective residents, you won't regret it! 5 stars!

I personally like the location a lot since it is a safe quite neighborhood and you get access (at an extra monthly cost) to the Stonegate country club which a nice perk. The apartments are spacious so it is nice when I invite people over. Mold is a problem and requires regular cleaning but if you take care of it, it is not a huge issue it does get brutally hot during the summer because of the specific location of my apartment so make sure to pick a shaded apartment. the price is on the higher end but I think it is worth it for the space and the neighborhood. Be warned that the price increases 5% each year, but I think that is normal for all apartment complexes. The dishwasher is super old and does not work properly, I asked for replacement but they didn't do it. They do replace the smaller, less expensive stuff. Sometimes the laundry machines would be out of service and I would have to walk over to a different laundry room but that did not happen often Overall, it is a decent place with a few issues.
