My husband and I got married here on 6/16/12. The venue is beautiful. Loved the gazebo. But one of…read morethe best things about this venue is Matt Ramirez and the staff. Matt was so patient and answered all my emails from the day we booked (a year before the wedding) til the final week. He is just delightful to work with and amazing. I couldn't say 1 bad thing about Matt if I tried. The Vista Grande room was just perfect. We had 89 guest and the room was a perfect size and the layout Matt helped us come up with was perfect! The staff that was on site the day of the wedding was just as good! A lot of our guest that lived or grew up in San Ramon said they never even knew the site was there and couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was. I definitely recommend this location as a wedding venue!

I highly recommend this venue!!

Pest control finally came out and set traps and told them what they needed to do but they did none of it before I moved out. It was supposed to be a senior complex but it turned into some of everything. Tenants items started to come up missing. Now I don't who or whom did it but things were missing. I know people love pets but my goodness, then didn't do well at cleaning up behind their OWN pets. Pet hair left in the washers and dryers. They would wash their pet items in the washers and dryers. Heck, I got fleas or maybe bedbugs bites, I don't know which is which because I have never dealt with either one of them before. I do know that I through my comforter away.Some tenants expected maintenance to clean up THEIR dog urine and feces when they are looking at their dog doing this. The rodents got in my bed. I went through 4 air mattresses. I didn't buy an actual bed in fear of it being a total loss. I was over charged in rent. I was supposed to pay $1499 and I'm just going to be truthful, my rent was padded. The manager at the time charged $1929.00 in rent when id.gov told her to charge less. It was a lot more going on there by other managers but I'll tell that in court. I lived in a studio apartment and I was charged more than a one bedroom. I tried to write corporate but the packet came back. I have of that I speak of. Have you notice, the owner does put their name on the reviews? I have tried and tried to communicate with them but I can not reach them. Maybe the court system can or maybe they will respond through here. I want my overpayment back the cost for my 4 air mattresses.

Whether or not you've ever thrown a parent a birthday party your official notice begins now: if…read morethey make it, you've an obligation to throw them one for their 90th. On the plus side, neither the one being feted nor many of the guests will mandate a party that runs more than a couple of hours and you can bet those hours will be daylight. Enter the Danville Community Center, where a close friend hosted a party for her mother's 90th. This is not the sort of space where food or drink is provided. If you want that you'll arrange for it separately, just as my friend did. She also self-managed a slide show, music, and a couple of group dances. The whole affair was perfect and the spacious, high-ceilinged room (with free on-site parking) was nicer than possibly any community center I've ever been to. While I'd not suggest the Danville Community Center to those who don't live in the East Bay if you do, and you're seeking an event venue, it is quite worth checking it out. Perhaps it might even inspire you to host an event.

You do need the results of a TB test and a doctor's signature that your person is healthy enough for the program if your first visit turns out successful. And you also need to supply a bag lunch each time your person "goes to camp". The program actually takes place in the Recreation Room of a church and is run by people who, you will soon discover, are truly Saints. All the participants in the program have different needs and these Saints seem always able to anticipate those needs. They lead song-fests, memory games, Bingo, arts and crafts, and an hour of gentle exercise. My person LOVES going "to camp" and would go EVERY day if they were open.

No greetings, just looked at me through the glass & I guess assumed I'd just know to give her all the paperwork. I did. She looked at all of it, started the process & was silent.. except when she had a few short questions. It was extremely awkward & it felt like going to DMV where they're not necessarily mean but not at all friendly. NOTE: THEY DO NOT TAKE PASSPORT PICS HERE.

After living in San Ramon for almost 9 years, I was fairly unimpressed with the old City Hall digs in a nearby business park and was very happy to hear that my well-run city was going to get itself a new place to call home. So, how did it turn out? Well, I think it's beautiful! I love the rotunda (the round portion of the building with lots of glass and a shiny floor), it's grandiose and a perfect showpiece for the city. It's clear that the building was built using the latest in environmental and technological bells 'n whistles, which add to it's splendor. I happened to visit the NEW city hall for a trip to their passport office and was very pleased with the friendliness and efficiency of the staff. Congrats San Ramon, you've successfully built yourself something to be proud of - a lovely new City Hall. 5 stars.
