    Office area, amazing light fixture
    Rickey B.

    Well, I told Travis the new manager, when the situation changed I'll definitely update the review and here we go. Since last review we have realized the people under my apartment were the problem and they have left. I am now feeling comfortable again and the harassment has left with the tenants that moved out. With that being said, I am happy again with the new manager, the leading agents are very nice. I can confidently say this is an amazing place to live and I recommend anyone who wants to live in this area that Metropolis will be a place you can call home.

    Dog owners.

    We've only been living here for a few months, but from day one we've been pleasantly surprised. The amenities are amazing and well maintained, the units have nice layouts, kitchens with lots of storage space and minimal noise pollution from neighbors. The only downside would be the irresponsible dog owners that leave feces on the ground, let their dogs urinate on the hallway carpet or walkways and leave pet hair trimmings all over the elevators and hallways. My respects to the custodians that work hard to keep up with these messes. Really hope they check cameras and hold these people responsible.

    My view! I live in a resort!!!

    I moved into this beautiful property a couple of weeks ago and I have had the most wonderful experience. Leasing office, especially the lovely Eloise, go above and beyond with a smile and positive attitude. I've also had a great experience with the maintenance service's responsiveness and quality of work.

    In the 8 years I've been in the USA, this has been the worst experience living in apartments. Not only were there constant problems, like ridiculous notifications about things they didn't like, but that's not all. There were also constant thefts from the garage, such as stolen wheels from cars, and random people roaming around and peeking into windows. They hire managers through a process of negative selection. It felt like there wasn't a week that went by without some issue happening. You won't have a peaceful life here! Stay away from them!

    We lived at metropolis for a year and it was OK. The amenities are great! The pool is a vibe, grills are good, dog wash was very useful to me. The maintenance staff is amazing! Neighbors are ok. There's a lack of community. Everyone just occupies the units, casual hi, dogs don't appear to be trained and bark at each other. Dog piss constantly in elevators. Our downstairs neighbor was crazy and would bang our ceiling. The walls are thin but honestly wasn't a huge problem (for us). Here's the most important factor for our living experience. The leasing office staff does not put effort into resolving issues. It's as if they lack the ability to do more than just provide corporate FAQ answers. Jerrad at the front desk was great and helpful. Can't say the same about the rest. Zero effort and it's very ugly to see, especially in so called luxury living. Make an effort to help! The shared parking on Sullivan with the Main Street Plaza tenants is only for metropolis between certain hours (I believe it was from 5pm-6am) and they will tow your vehicle! Here's the kicker, the Main Street plaza tenants leave old, ugly, dusty cars parked there for months at a time which contribute to less parking. People smoke cigarettes on that same street next to the entrances despite the signs No Smoking. People I have seen smoking cigarettes next to the signs: metropolis tenants, metropolis leasing office staff, Main Street plaza tenants. Maybe remove the no smoking sign at this point?? We moved out and we are still being charged for renters insurance after we were told we would not get charged again. My dog also is happier now that we have moved elsewhere. This is one of the signs that I'm most grateful for (and was least expecting)! I personally would avoid metropolis and do not recommend metropolis to my friends and family.

    See photo.. email I received from the management team. I think I am smart enough to be able to differentiate excessive noises from everyday living noises. Thanks for nothing Metropolis.

    Absolute paradise. Love that I can say I live here

    Been living here for 2 years +. Best service from leasing staff and maintenance. Victor and his team always on the ball and do a great job going the extra mile for repair requests. Response times in as little as 20 minutes. Great place to live, best amenities hands down.

    See all

    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.

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.
