I figured I should post a review with pictures because their website lacks pictures of every room. This place is amazing. If you are a Davis grad student, I highly recommend checking out the Atriums and be early to apply (as early as February I believe). The apartments are in a building with key access so you'll have extra security. You get your own parking space included in the rent. It's right across from Trader Joe's, so I walked to get my groceries every week. These apartments are nicely maintained and my studio was extremely clean, looked barely lived in. A major highlight is that management and maintenance are quick to respond and are on site during normal business hours (maintenance is available 24/7, I called at midnight once to report a leak I think and they answered). Also, I had guests pretty often and they were always able to get a temp parking pass.
Pictures are of my apartment after I moved out. FYI, I had a studio apartment, which is only called a studio because of the open floor plan; it's basically a one bedroom for the price of a studio.
The only issues I can think of are the grout or caulking in some areas weren't perfect, the oven seemed to be old (I had to deep clean it when I moved in and it never looked brand new), the condensation from the AC drips into the tub and that water stains the shower and tub, leaves get blown into the patio pretty much every morning, and the frat houses are a slight noise disturbance (they blast music all day and I would always hear voices outside my patio assumably walking towards the frats). Also, the laundry was coin operated, so that is a pain, but at least the laundry room is in the building and you can get coins across the street at Trader Joe's. But these are all minor issues, they never ruined my living experience.
I loved it here and miss it already. read more
