We love the monthly events, they hire a DJ and set up a karaoke machine, especially during Halloween and Christmas casino nights. Ruby, Maiyah, Misael, Fredo and Lourdes greet you first thing in the morning, very professional and friendly. The amenities are great too!! My kids enjoy the pool, the snacks at the front office, and the hot chocolate slash coffee machine is top tier. There's no place like The Lark in the peninsula area. We really feel at home.

After I moved in, I met the rest of the staff including the maintenance team. This property is very well kept and offers a lot of amenities. The staff genuinely cares.

They are super friendly, helpful, and try their best with everything. Gary and the maintenance team are great too, although we have occasionally had maintenance requests lost and had to follow up after a few days. The location can't be beat either - I love how it's walking distance from the Caltrain and downtown. It is great being able to go out to dinner and also not worry about parking because of the garage. One star off because of the pool situation. We love the pool and how warmly it is heated, but it has been closed this entire season due to maintenance, and honestly doesn't look like it will be opening anytime soon. Frustrating since there hasn't been any decrease in the rent (in fact it increased from last year despite the pool and outdoor BBQ area being closed for months).

Echoing other reviews on here, we love living at Two50 for the convenience and location, the…read morefriendly management, and the large space we have in our unit. The proximity to downtown is unbeatable and we rely on the train for commutes to work. The drawbacks to living here are the age of the building and the high rental prices. We justify the price based on the location, but the building's age (despite the renovations, which are nice) makes the amount dubious. Further, the place is very noisy. Personally, we don't mind the noise and we were well-aware of the risks, but it can be pretty nonstop at all hours. There is a lot of construction in the area nearby that can begin as early as 7am. Overall, we love living here but it wouldn't be for everyone. If loud noises and/or the dated appearance of the building would be a bother, I would recommend looking farther out from downtown.

The office staff and maintenance are very friendly. They even accept packages for you if you are at work and keep them in the office till you can pick them up. The location is great for me and the hubby as I work in SF and he works in the South Bay. I love San Mateo itself and being here you can get to all parts without driving on 101. I can even walk to the farmer's market at CSM on Weds or Sat or to Piazza/Safeway for groceries. We are lucky enough to have an end apartment on the third floor with a great view of the bay and the San Mateo Bridge. On clear days we can see the East Bay. Fireworks on the 4th were fun to watch. As mentioned, there is a pool, sauna (never used it though) small weight room, extra storage and covered gated parking. We originally had a 1 bedroom and when our family expanded we were able to move to a 2 bedroom 1 1/2 bath over 1000 sq ft. There are lots of closets which I of course have filled.

Of all the apartments I've lived at, Mode is easily the best. I stumbled upon the complex five…read moreyears ago and knew as soon as I toured that I was home. The complex is tucked away so it gets very little street traffic and the inside is serene and beautiful- lots of lush greenery. Parking spaces are big (even the compact spots) and the garage is clean and convenient. The layouts are some of the best I've seen in the Bay Area, with (very) generous patios and closets, and the rare dual Master bedroom combo. I've always found the pricing to be fair and comparable to the area. Most importantly, I've never experienced management that is this efficient and neighborly, which is unusual for corporate complexes. Maintenance requests are typically handled within a day and while the quality of living tends to go down over time in most places, I have seen Mode only get better over the years. In my experience, our Community Managers (past and present) continually strive to better the place and the resident experience. In particular, I want to give a special shout out to Romel, Sasha, & Kaitlin who have gone above and beyond to make the place feel like home. Even when I had to coordinate a tricky move out with a lot of back and forth on the details, Sasha worked with me tirelessly to make sure everything went smoothly. I'm genuinely sad to be leaving, and wouldn't hesitate to rent here again when I'm back in the area!

All in all a great place to live.

I was a former resident of El Dorado apartments in Belmont and throughly enjoyed my time living…read morethere. The location is fantastic as it right next to the Carlmont Plaza, and specifically the specialty grocery store, Lunardi's. The management was extremely accommodating to my every need. I just can't say enough positive things about the overall experience.

Before moving to California, we used Google Earth to scout locations and looked up reviews on Yelp…read more We're so happy this method brought us to El Dorado Apartments in Belmont. It was exciting reading the 5-star reviews and seeing photos of the beautiful apartments. We contacted SkylinePMG to inquire, and they worked with us and our move-in schedule. From that moment on we felt like family. The property managers Kay, Bruce, and Kash really care about their tenants and take amazing care of us and the property. The building maintenance crew are very quick to respond to any issues: Either a major appliance needing repair or a minor faucet adjustment, you can count on a fast response and quality work! Two-plus years later in this wonderful apartment we've called home, we have always felt taken care of and a welcome part of the community. This is a place where your neighbors say "Hello" and you have the chance to make good friends - like the members of The Cat Sitters Club, which we formed using posts on the Community Bulletin Board. We've also enjoyed the maintained Community Garden in the courtyard that was started by the property managers for the tenants. The garden has produced fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs. You get so many benefits from living here. They even installed charging stations in the parking lot for electric vehicles after they saw a need. If we weren't retiring and moving out of the country, we would never leave El Dorado. If there's an apartment available, try your best grab it before someone else does!

My partner and I lived here for three years, and would have stayed if we hadn't decided to move to…read morethe city. It was the best apartment experience we had in Redwood City. The facilities are impeccably maintained for a building that was opened in 2016. Having the property manager (yay Julie!) and facilities manager (yay Osvaldo!) live onsite makes a massive difference and it is very apparent in the quality and cleanliness of the common areas. Parking is included in the rent for a 1br, and there is secure package and bike storage. The appliances are nice; we only seldom needed to submit maintenance requests, and Osvaldo responded, and often resolved, the issues within 24 hours. Bing bang boom. There was an incident involving false fire alarms being activated multiple times across multiple weeks that has since been resolved. It was a stressful time for everyone involved but Julie did her best and at the end of the day the repairs appeared to be outside of her control. Rates for security deposit and other fees are reasonable for what they provide. I could go on and on (their tenant events, their small but mighty 24/7 gym) but that might make me miss it too much. Take an in-person tour here but keep in mind units go fast, and for good reason. Their rating is well-deserved and if I ever relocate back to the Peninsula it'd be hard to stay away. Thanks Locale, wish you all nothing but the best!

I moved into Locale in March of 2024, and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions…read moreI've made. From the very beginning, Julie went above and beyond to support me through a challenging situation related to my credit never once making me feel discouraged, and always offering thoughtful solutions. The application process was smooth, and my move-in experience was even better. The maintenance team, especially Osvaldo and Valentin, are absolute gems. They're incredibly kind, professional, and quick to respond to any work orders I've submitted! truly a rare find in apartment living. Since moving in, I've renewed my lease and even transferred units to accommodate my growing family. What started as a home for just my son and me has now grown to a family of three, and Locale has been the perfect fit. The units are bright, modern, and ideal for anyone who works from home. The property itself is beautifully maintained and even charming enough to host a small elopement in the clubroom...yes, we really did that! Whether you're a single parent, a busy professional, a dog lover, or simply someone looking for a space that feels like home, Locale offers it all. It's truly worth every penny, and once you move in, I promise you won't want to move out.

Very disappointing experience. I scheduled a tour and was clearly told over the phone that someone…read morewould be present to show us the apartment and that I would be able to ask questions during the tour. However, when we arrived, they tried to send us on a self-guided tour, claiming that this was my request -- which is simply not true. I did have questions, as discussed in advance, but there was no one available to help. Instead of acknowledging the mistake or trying to resolve the situation, the staff chose to blame me and offered no real help. This level of miscommunication and lack of accountability is frustrating and unprofessional. I would not recommend based on this experience.

We stayed at Trestle on a short term lease while doing renovations. The property is well kept and…read morethe staff is pleasant. It is a good location. They have a few nice amenities, but we did not find much use for them. I would not recommend them for a few reasons: - Poor Onboarding Experience: I had to fill out a mountain of paperwork online using a very flaky website that did not make it clear what documents were needed or completed. And they make it sound like if you make a mistake they will not let you move in. - Noise: Building 1 is in front of a busy bus stop so you will hear beeping from the bus at all hours. There are also cars honking constantly when people make U turns at the nearby intersection. In the other hand there is no train noise even though it is adjacent to Caltrain. - Safety: The visibility of traffic when exiting the parking lot is very poor due to cars parked along El Camino right up to the exit. This makes leaving the complex very dangerous since you cannot see oncoming traffic on a busy road. The city repainted the curbs due to complaints, but on the wrong side of the exit which did nothing. It is a minor thing but the gates to the parking were frequently broken and the front doors were not very secure due to frequent deliveries and the doors being propped. - Mediocre Quality: The finishes in the apartment were cheap. There was existing water damage on the paint when we moved in. The appliances were a bit flaky. - Overpriced: We were paying a premium due to the short term lease and having a pet. We accepted that and those were the main reasons for choosing Trestle. However two issues came up that lowered our opinion of the company. First, when we needed to extend our lease by a month they offered a rate that was almost 2x so we had to find someplace else to stay. That was unreasonable given we were already paying an elevated cost and it cost nothing for them to extend our lease. Second, we cleaned our unit thoroughly before moving out and accepted we would pay something for the normal wear on the walls where furniture scratched the paint. Instead we got a large bill for full cleaning and full repaint.
