Rarely a wait for the laundry - even on weekends. Large bedrooms, ample storage space. In our 2 bedroom apt. the bedroom closets are 1 whole wall, plus a large hall closet, linen closet by the bathroom and tons of storage in the kitchen. There is only 1 parking spot per unit but a large off street lot in the back. Neighbors are polite and quiet. Manager is intent on keeping the community happy and engaged - hosting seasonal get togethers so we can meet each other.

The residents are nice, and the general population in the local area are also quite friendly and willing to lend advice to someone new to the area. This particular apartment is rather central to a lot of local establishments, so it's quite convenient. The manager Luke is also nicer and more attentive than he has any right to be, and has been absolutely instrumental in getting me set up, even responding to calls for help in the wee hours of the night. In conversations with neighbors, they seem to hold the same sentiment as the above. I take it as a good sign.

The property is gated which is a big plus, and the property manager Luke is the best, he went above and beyond to help my son with all questions or any help that he might have needed. The property is clean and well managed, we are very happy to have found this place.

MANY cars were broken and packages stolen despite security cameras, and again Cedars said they couldn't do much.

On-site staff , secure access, and shared facilities such as a gym and lounge add value and convenience.

The landlady Laurie will ignore you and is extremely rude, you will never get any help if you have maintenance problems. The only good thing is pets are allowed. The rent price seems okay at first but literally every year they raise the rent by at least $200!! There's not even an area to load groceries or you will get towed from your own apartment, and now people park in other people's place so even your assigned parking isn't "reserved" and you have to park on the street and risk getting broken into.

The back patios are pretty spacious as well so you can have tables and chairs set up or even a potted garden. There is a pool and a gym in the apartment complex (currently closed during COVID, but its still nice that we even have those facilities on site). The neighborhood itself if pretty quite and we've had good luck with neighbors. Parking is pretty easy as each unit has assigned parking spots. And if you need additional parking, there's always lots of street parking! Also rent is pretty affordable here compared to the rest of the bay area which is a plus! Stacey (the community manager) is always wonderful and pleasant to talk to. She is also super helpful anytime I have questions or concerns. She is very knowledgeable and always happy to help, you just gotta ask :) Maintenance requests are also super easy to do at this apartment complex! Anytime I submit a maintenance request, Stacey is always on top of it and sends out the maintenance crew to our unit in a timely manner. There is also an emergency maintenance call line if you ever have any issues that occur after office hours. I think I've only ever had to use the after hours maintenance crew once during my entire time living here and they were so nice and helpful! Town House Plaza has been my home for so long and I'm so happy that I've had such a great experience with them. Thank you Stacey for being a great community manager! I truly appreciate everything you have done for our unit :)

After nearly 3.5 years living here, we are moving to pursue career opportunities. For the most part…read moreit has been a delight. The apartment is large, the grounds are well taken care of, the management is friendly and takes care of problems quickly to the best of their ability. Our apartment has a fabulous view down the hill--you can see the bay on a clear day. (It will be available for lease soon!) Unfortunately it is an old apartment and not luxury by any stretch. The brown wall-to-wall carpeting and popcorn ceilings suck; the windows are flimsy; closet doors get stuck; the faucets are ancient. Water pressure can be low, though hot water comes quickly. At this price in this area, issues like these are fairly standard. On the plus side, walls are super thick, it's fairly well lit, and the floor plan feels bigger than most. When we were apartment hunting this was by far the best complex at this price, out of around 10 that we visited. There are basically no feral cats left. The cats you see belong to people in the apartment or nearby houses. If you have a pet cat you will likely need a monthly flea treatment--though it seems they are treating the grounds for them now. On a final note, they won't let you have a piano.

You can tell they really try to keep a safe and comfortable complex. The trees are beautiful and it is always quiet around the complex. A great location, right off 580 and close to 880, also right around the corner from Trader Joe's and Safeway. If you're looking for an affordable, quiet place, I would definitely recommend Kelly Green.

Seems like management leaves/pays for 5 star blank reviews. All other positive reviews are people…read morethat just toured and name the manager specifically which seems odd, so maybe they got a discounted rent rate for leaving a review. Management responded to this review with a "." Took me 3 weeks to get a response from management and they said they tried calling but my voicemail was full which it wasn't, and didn't tell me what day/time they called me at. The price I was told over the phone was different than the contract. Takes a lot of effort to get any response from staff, they have never responded to a voicemail or email. Front desk & maintenance staff try their best but management is horrible, no response, hard to get a hold of and don't support their team well. The owner is Greystar who has 1 star on better business bureau reviews out of 550+ reviews. Lobby area has constant beeping noise issues. Trash in hallways. Management locked the trash chutes so you either have to leave trash out in a 2 hour window but if out for too long get fined, or you can take your garbage into the elevator down tot the garage and into the dirty large dumpsters that are heavy to open. Dirty carpets even though management said they'd do a deep cleaning and asked everyone to take in things outside their doors, but that was just to get people to try to cleanup their trash cans/bags. Random people can sneak into lobby and common areas easily given doors are propped open often. Moved in August 2025. Parking door for garage has been on and off working consistently, ($100/month parking). Management says its a vendor issue, takes time plus the stairwell pedestrian entrance door to garage does not fully close or lock, allowing homeless inside easily. Seen multiple homeless inside doing drugs / broken glass etc. They have security guards sometimes but not 24/7. At one point the doors and gates were locked for 2 weeks and was hard to access cars as keys they gave us no longer worked, went to front desk and they couldn't even access their own garage. No answer from calling office and maintenance emergency number wasn't connected/just hung up. Gym has had broken equipment and multiple work orders and calls to get a response. High mandatory utility costs ($250+ monthly) given its not fully rented out and some costs are shared among renters. My trash + valet bill alone was $140/month and water for common area charge was almost as much as personal water usage. There has been major leaks and flooding issues but no comms from management when the entire wall and ceiling was gutted, large water bill that month. No working gym or coworking space for weeks but no refund in rent because of it. There have been multiple fire alarms, one was at 2:30 am and had to stand outside and wait for fire department but never heard if it was a fire or just an accident, again no comms from management. Package room is a mess and lost many packages than anywhere else I've lived, ask to see it on a tour. I've cleaned it up before given there was just yogurt spilled everywhere and labeled the shelves to try to help organize it. Ask for more free rent credit if you do move here.
