Props to Jacque Mierop for always being available and attentive if any maintenance requests were needed and for communicating so effectively. After moving out of state, the checkout process was easy and my deposit was forwarded by mail promptly further demonstrating the professional of the manager(thanks again, Jacque for always doing things promptly). I highly recommend these apartments if you are looking for a place to live in the La Mesa area.

The property manager Jacque is so sweet and has been so helpful our entire stay! We have always felt right at home!

As well as being only a short drive to the freeway for easy access to all of San Diego! These apartments are seriously a 10/10!

This review goes mainly to the property manager, Maria. From the first time we inquire about The…read moreQuarry apartments, Maria was informative and transparent with everything we need to do. Maria kept us in the loop of our status and guide us through the application and documentation process. The Quarry office closes on the weekend and with our busy schedule, we could only see it on the weekends. Maria made it happen and we were able to see it on Saturday. During the move in process, Maria greeted us and PERSONALLY handed us the keys and a welcome packet. She also made sure everything was in working order before we moved in. We have not seen a property manager who is this efficient and involved in San Diego. There was an incident where the maintenance guys blocked our car and we contacted Maria about it. She PERSONALLY walked out of the office, looked for them, and told them to move. Maria is wonderful and we are glad she is our property manager. The neighborhood is quiet and lovely. There's a beautiful park across the street. This area is close to downtown La Mesa.

I finally drove by the complex. I didn't even realize this was over here, and I'm literally two…read moreblocks away. They are postponing rentals for an indeterminate amount of time, I didn't feel like I got true or honest information about that. Josie kept referring to her boss, "the lawyer," as the reason they were not accepting move ins. I want to say I have spoken to her a few times over a month or so of apartment searching. Here's my takeaway: if they are always going to drop the "boss is a lawyer" bit, how awful is this place going to be to live? It seems ominous already and I don't even live there. I could lawyer up too (I have needed to before). But why would you want to put that energy out there. If a "lawyer" is taking actual months to draw up such an advantageous lease for them, where will that leave us? Up shit creek, that's where. I literally never have seen an apartment put move ins on hold to write up a more self serving lease. Josie seemed nice, but I felt put off ultimately by the constant "my boss is a lawyer," name dropping. I was told, no bankruptcies, period. Everyone says that. I had a hard time physically and lost a business. Hence, the bankruptcy, several years ago. My credit is solid now, really good. Most NORMAL people can figure that out. Then Josie says, "for 7 years or more." They clearly do not have a clue on what they are doing. After 7 years, you actually can file ANOTHER bankruptcy. Not that I'm planning on it, but that's what the 7 years mark is. I was really shocked that she didn't know the basics of that. My credit is good enough to obtain a mortgage at this point (I have spoken to a lender), but not rent at the Mellmanor. Maybe it's a nice place, I will never know. Good luck to you, fellow apartment hunters.

We moved in almost a year ago and have been happy. Josie is GREAT! She told me the other day "I am…read morethe manager, but I am your neighbor first". The rent is priced fair for the area. Maintenance requests are answered timely. I would recommend it!

After a year living there it never went away. I stayed in apartment 8 facing the freeway, at night the walkway lights never worked so you could not see our building which made it feel unsafe especially in the evening for my wife walking alone. Its easy for anyone to hide in the bush and mug her. Once in the early morning I heard people rummaging into the apartments below me and then hurried off into a car. I reported it to management suggesting fixing the lights, they said they would and never did. My biggest gripe is how the management handles your move out. Dont expect to get your deposit, and in fact expect to pay on top of it. I took care of the apartment very well. Never wore shoes in the house, and had very little guests over in my year there. It was just me, my wife, and newborn son. Before moving out We cleaned the property thoroughly, vacuumed, and steamed the floor. We never mounted anything, or even touched the walls. First we agreed on a date and time for my final move out (afternoon slot) and an hour before it the property manager conveniently emails to cancel instead of calling. I show up, shes present and says they did the walk through in the morning without giving me a notice. I get my final statement, and they charged me for paint ($90.00), carpet repair, and cleaning. On top of my deposit that they took I had to pay extra. Again, we were clean and simple residents. What they charged me would be for anything outside normal wear and tear, but even at that there was nothing damaged, or needing to be replaced that we caused. They sent pictures of the wall with a little paint scuff smaller than a penny, and charged $90 to repair that. So it looks like they do this to every resident moving out, but dont actually do the work, because if they did especially the paint then I wouldnt have to pay anything because we didnt damage any walls. They basically pass all the fees that come with preparing for the next resident onto previous residents which isnt right especially if you didnt do anything to damage the property. I hope this helps anyone considering moving here. This is the first time Ive dealt with property managers like this. Your deposit should come back to you if you've respected the property.

This apartment complex is simply an old motel…read more Lived here for about two years and the whole time I had issues getting maintenance to service my toilet, dryer, & door handles. I believe ownership & management are only interested in lining their own pockets to take days off at Petco Park. At one point, the barbecue grill actually had mold in it. The only thing you can really count on is The Cove La Mesa increasing the rent 10% annually. One bedrooms are about $2600 and two bedrooms go for about $3000 minimum. I would not recommend this apartment complex to anybody who's trying to save money in San Diego.

I am writing this review because I have had a very special experience this is a happy resident of…read moreShasta Lane apartments. First of all they were built sometime back so even though these pricey pricey condo type apartments for even more money than here which isn't too bad here Shasta Lane apartments have living rooms that are large and spacious connected to a dining room and a kitchen then there's a hallway and then a bathroom on one side the bedroom on one side and wow walk inclosets! I say this because this feels like a home it is not compacted at all I believe it was built in the seventies but it might have even been the 50s and they just read you the parking lot as well as the roofs so everything is wonderful and they are remodeled in different ways at different times so everybody has some special kind of thing about their apartment that makes it special to them we talk amongst each other and it's a friendly place. But more than that it's been the people that work here that make it real community for me. When I left to go to a funeral in Denver where I am from, the resident relations manager who is in my building and we keep a quiet building said Shasta Lane is a family we will welcome you back. That touched me because I haven't made a lot of friends yet in california! I also want to mention somebody else, somebody very special at fixing anything you can think of someone that any business would want if they didn't need a lot of trouble and other experts and just wanted one man that could do it all and sometime with an assistant his name is Brandon Fronhoefer, the senior service manager. I never have to worry about things costing here even though renters insurance is required because the place really doesn't need a lot of repair in all of these apartments are sturdily built and not only that, the senior business manager Lorraine Seward seems to really have work with some people that took advantage of the covid no pay rent because they did not read the law and suddenly were left with oh my goodness I have to pay it all at once all back. They did not read the statute, and that is unfortunate. For some time the rain worked with these people, I noticed that people were allowed to stay for some time past the time they could repay it so that seems to have come to an end it is understandable and that is why the rent has gone up all over town. I have bad credit but I always pay my rent first. I also want to say that the staff has been especially patient with me because I have a mental illness combined with a head injury, I appear normal speak normal and do a lot of things just like everyone else, but the staff is aware of my condition and they are so sensitive it it is unbelievable! I highly recommend moving here is a wonderful place don't worry about the price I couldn't find anything cheaper in Chu la Vista you'll do well here you'll enjoy it it even has a hot tub and heated floors in my bedroom and living room amazing amazing view out of the patio facing west and a palm tree for my Colorado fun time I love San Diego and this has been a wonderful experience thank you Shasta Lane apartments. Thank you to everyone that works here, and thank you Kantis Tindall for being the friendly neighbor that you are. All of the property folks live right with us as neighbors fun people enjoyable and often busy but cool to conversate with.

I lived here for over two years and I loved it!…read more Assigned parking spots AND lots of guest parking available, two BBQs with tables to sit at, and a big grass patch for pets to do their business. I personally like that there isn't a pool, gym etc. because then I am not paying for something that I may or may not use. The front office is very nice and quick with any questions. The maintenance team is visibly around every day and answers trouble calls quickly, even calling to see what a good time for you is. My car never got broken into, and I always saw patrol officers driving around the property. The grounds are well kept, and the community is well lit at night. There are no hidden fees, and they did not raise my rent when I renewed. Some "CONS" is the neighbors above me had a toddler and I could hear them walking/running around their apartment. I could also hear their washer or maybe their dishwasher running at night. I never complained because I just didn't let it bother me. I saw one homeless person one time around the BBQs, but he wasn't harming anyone. Someone else parked in my parking spot one time. If you are on the first floor, the windows are a little too "see through" at night with the lights on, so I bought blackout curtains and put them up. If there are multiple dogs in the turf area at once, you may hear them barking at each other for a short amount of time. Some mornings or night I would smell Marijuana in the area. Overall, I loved my time here!
