Bathroom at the Verve covered in sewage on a Sunday evening
Hank Y.

I was busy washing dishes in my apartment on a Sunday evening after a long week. Suddenly the kitchen sink filled with dark sooty water, covering my arms and hands. I went to the bathroom to take a shower and rinse off when I encountered the grossest scene imaginable. It looked like a sewage bomb had gone off in the bathroom covering the floor, shower and parts of the bathroom vanity in black excrement water. The smell was even worse than a tipped-over portapotty - it was more chemical and toxic-smelling, burning your nostrils. Everything in the bathroom from the rug to the garbage can was covered. I grabbed a COVID mask, took a photo and shut the bathroom door to prevent some of the smell from leaking out. A mosquito and several flies flew by me. I called Verve but there was no answer except from the emergency line. An emergency tech came out around 11PM and attempted to clean up the mess with a wad of cotton towels. He worked heroically until 1AM then left a dehumidifier running over night. He mentioned that he thought the sludge was coming up from the shower drain. I went to bed at 2AM but slept poorly a few feet from the bathroom next door worrying that the sludge would leak out in my sleep for me to inhale. The dehumidifier rattled on loudly in the background. I had to leave the next morning but not before a service employee came in to check. As we walked into the bathroom we realized another sewage bomb had gone off and the foul smell and the bathroom was again covered. Unfortunately the previous service tech's equipment/dehumidifier was covered. As I went to the garage, pipes below my unit were leaking water and parts of the garage's insulation onto the floor. --- I wish I could tell you that this episode has been resolved. The bathroom was cleaned after the second bomb but continues to smell of sewage and the floor remains stained brown. My carpet to the bathroom is still stained by equipment and boots dragged into the bathroom. The Verve is telling me that they expect me to go in and continue to use that bathroom They've done nothing about my belongings in the bathroom and told me that this type of thing happens "at all of their properties" and is not unusual. The manager informed me that she also had the same thing happen, implying that I should just live with it. Maybe I've just been lucky but this has never happened to me or to other friends who live in apartments. I do not know what to do, but I hope this does not happen to you

This apartment complex treats its residents extremely well. The respect masks and social distancing, and have really good parking options. Located right on El Camino, you can get to the freeway and downtown really easily. If you have a dog, they love them here and have a place that is walking distance to get your dog taken care of. The even treat their residents to unlimited coffee/espresso drinks. That's nice. #sipbiecaffe

This review is definitely overdue and I normally don't write reviews but I thought I should give my feedback. I've been here since April and I have nothing but great things to say about the property and the staff. Besides the obvious which is the perfect location and my fabulous apartment, the staff has made my experience super pleasant. Alexis helped me during the move in process and she was super helpful. It was literally the easiest move ever and she followed up with me several times after to make sure everything was ok and I was happy with my unit which I totally appreciate. Also I have had few interactions with Yusif and he's been great. The maintenance team Marcos and Edgar are friendly and always go out of their way to say hello when I'm walking around. The property is also one of the cleanest and tidiest properties I've lived at and I've probably lived in over 10 apartment buildings. The property always smells so good from the elevator to the hallways and the package room... even the trash room smells good! Honestly, I'm extremely surprised about the couple negative reviews here as I haven't experienced anything close to that...I absolutely love living here! One last thing- Couple months after moving in, I got a nice surprise at my front door when I got home which it was 2 bottles of wine and a sweet thank you note which was sent to all my neighbors as well :)

lived here for almost 13 months (feb 2025-march 2026)…read more loved the location and size of apartment complex- this was my second prometheus property ive ever lived at (i lived at the hadley prior to this in 2022-2025). while madera is a tad bit older and very Y2K (i think the property is 10-15 years old?) the quality of the structure itself is more robust compared to the hadley. the only pros i liked about this unit were: the location (i love downtown mountain view, the size of the apartment complex (i came from the hadley where that is a super big community- too many people!!! that was too overstimulating. madera is more midsize ), and the sense of community (people were very active on the tenant forum, had seasonal get togethers/ activities, plus the community itself organizes a bi weekly brunch thing (not ran by the madera staff btw, this is soley organized by the people that live here!) yes there is an ant problem like everyone else is saying- ive only observed this in the spring and summer time- use the ant baits they sell at target. my only gripe about this place and reason of why i wouldn't come here again is the quality of maintenance. when i toured the unit i moved into there was a functioning door knob to the outdoor patio- i had this in my video i recorded touring the unit. moving into the apartment, the knob was changed into a weird lock thing where i could only open and lock the door from the inside (see pictures) also the quality of paint at move in wasnt that great. i also attached pictures of what that looked like at the time of move in. you do get charged for paint maintenance at the time of move out so be forewarned that even though you will be charged, the quality of the paint labor isnt even that great for the next tenant. i was not charged for paint at the hadley but that complex is new... idk... im still questioning how apartment complexes come up with these crazy charges i had my fridge replaced mid lease due to ice maker issues. communication was good and everything but i wish they did a more careful job of moving the fridge in and out of my apartment while i was not home at my apartment (i gave them permission to do this while i was in the office). i noticed door scratches/scuffs at my front door and the fridge replacement was not clean (im a clean freak!) i also had a move out inspection i requested to be present in and the maintenance person that was conducting it didnt put his bootie covers on (i have a no shoe in the house policy) - that kinda rubbed me the wrong way. just another reason why i wasnt found of the maintenance quality. living at the hadley, their maintenance puts on booties regardless every time coming into the unit!!! people have complained about the caltrain noise. honestly i dont mind it much lol. i lived in the unit towards the back of the complex (on villa street so i didnt hear much of it) BUT for two years living at the hadley my units were facing evelyn - so i def heard the caltrain noise then... didnt mind it tho but i know those who are sensitive to that would hate it would i live at this community again? probably not. if i ever move back to the apartment life (i now live in a house), i would probably try my luck at 100 moffett who is also ran by prometheus. it is the same community size and similar age of madera... but i am weary of the maintenance staff / quality. maybe i was spoiled by the hadley but if they are all prometheus properties you would expect the same quality all around

What made The Meadows so great was the combination of the people, the property, and the location. The management and maintenance teams were wonderful throughout my time here, the community was friendly, and the grounds were always exceptionally clean and beautifully maintained. There's a ton of greenery throughout the property, and it always felt like the people taking care of the community genuinely cared about making it a nice place to live. That experience started before I even moved in. The leasing staff took the time to understand what I was looking for and helped me find a unit that fit my preferences. They were even gracious enough to work with me on getting a better deal. Looking back, that first interaction was a pretty good indication of how I'd be treated over the next three years. I also really appreciated how reasonable management was when it came to renewals. Even with the rent-control limits on annual increases, my rent generally went up by less than what they could have charged. I never felt like management was trying to squeeze as much as possible out of existing residents, which unfortunately isn't something I can say about every apartment community in the Bay Area. Maintenance was excellent too, although, honestly, the fact that I only had a single maintenance request in more than three years probably says something on its own. When I did need help, everyone I interacted with was friendly and helpful. The Meadows is also easily one of the cleanest apartment communities I've ever seen. When I moved in, it was obvious that they had put real care into preparing and cleaning the unit. As someone who is pretty particular about keeping my own home clean, I appreciated that. I noticed the same attention to detail when I moved out and saw the cleaning checklist they use to prepare apartments for the next resident. It was surprisingly close to the kind of checklist I'd make myself. My apartment had wonderful natural light and became an incredibly cozy home for me. I faced the expressway, and while there was a small amount of road noise, it was never enough to really bother me. More than anything, I loved coming home every day. That may be the simplest and most important compliment I can give a place where I spent more than three years. The location was great as well. There are restaurants and grocery stores nearby, plenty of good routes for running and walking, and it's incredibly easy to get onto highways. The property itself also has great amenities, and I particularly appreciated how well the gym was maintained. Despite being so conveniently located, the community always felt comfortable and safe. I never felt uneasy living or walking around here. There were also community events throughout the year that brought residents together. I certainly didn't go to every one, but I appreciated that they existed and that management put real effort into making The Meadows feel like a community rather than just a collection of apartments. Even moving out was surprisingly easy. Everything was handled professionally and straightforwardly, without unnecessary stress or surprises. It was nice that my last experience with the management team was just as positive as my first. The only reason I moved was because I wanted to live in a different part of the Bay Area. It had nothing to do with The Meadows itself. Over the years I visited plenty of other apartment communities where friends and coworkers lived, and I honestly never came away wishing I had chosen somewhere else. It's rare to leave an apartment feeling genuinely sad to go, but The Meadows really became home for me. I looked forward to coming home every day, and I'm incredibly happy I stayed as long as I did. (ps. videos are from the day I moved out; the place looks even better after they take a pass before the next tenant's move in)

I wish I could write a better review but I'm so disappointed by what was previously a great place to rent. The buildings are quite dated and the updates that have been made are of the cheapest quality. The old carpeting in the buildings was replaced last year...we all thought what had been placed was the liner and the installation people would be returning to lay the actual carpet. No...the carpet is just that thin and it causes sound to reverberate through the halls. The vinyl flooring in some units is cheap quality and poorly installed, so that it's constantly lifting. They continue to permit cigarette smoking on patios and balconies, and public areas around the site, which means there's smoke coming in through the windows, patio/balcony doors, and vents, regardless of whether you smoke. The complex spent three years and a lot of money to update the property, with the pool and hot tub, bbq area, and clubhouse were all unavailable during this time. The big reveal after all the work reflected that the only thing changed for residents was a nicer bbq area. The pool and hot tub, and all the chaises, tables, and umbrellas are the same that have been there since my initial residency. The clubhouse, which is only open during the management's working hours (unless reserved for a private event), is gorgeous but the main change is a remodel of the office space. The management and facilities staff are the only people who use the "clubhouse," and in great part due to the hours it's accessible as well as the fact that whenever someone goes in there, it feels as if you're interrupting the office staff having their breaks, hanging out and snacking, etc. All the parking spots were redesignated this past year as "assigned" spots, in a clear attempt to increase income for the management company. Residents must pay an additional fee monthly to reserve a spot, covered or not, and there are virtually no unassigned spots for additional resident cars or guests. The office staff regularly "patrol" the parking area for parkers who aren't "registered" and when discovering someone, send an email blast to the entire community calling out the car's identifying details and threatening to have the vehicle towed within a certain number of minutes if it's not moved. During weekends, the Springwood staff tend to park in the spots reserved for "new residents." Management sends email frequently admonishing residents that they've "been told" they cannot have anything on their balconies/patios, hallways, lobbies, etc. as if the residents are young children. I don't like when people break rules meant to ensure people's enjoyment of their rented home either, but there's a way to do this respectfully and a way to make people feel bad. When there are problems with the laundry room machines, the office staff will not assist. The response is that they haven't been trained on how to use the equipment or its software and residents have to contact the vendor (which never seems to result in a response). A dryer has been non-functional for months but despite numerous requests, the management staff have done nothing to ensure that it's repaired or replaced. With only 4 washers and 4 dryers per building, having one out of order creates a difficult situation for residents trying to do their laundry. On the plus side, the maintenance staff are without exception friendly and responsive. The apartments are in a great location and the people living there are generally quite nice, but there are few amenities and the management staff sometimes make residents feel like interlopers.

I rent a 1B1B unit and the open design is amazing. They make really good use of space. Despite coming from a similar square footage apartment, I feel that I get way more space here and there are so many cabinets and drawers, even an extra storage closet! Definitely more storage options than I can figure out how to use. What's even better than the apartment? Getting to work with Kimberly Diaz! Kim is probably the main reason that I chose to stay at 100 Moffett. She has been a tremendous help in asking all of my questions and is always responsive to calls or emails (very promptly too!). She's also extremely knowledgeable on everything here even though it's not her main building. If you want to tour the complex, I highly highly recommend asking to work with Kim! I've toured many apartments and Kim just smokes any other neighborhood director, landlord, or manager. Seriously, she's amazing. 20/10 rating.

WARNING: Management Refuses to Enforce 'Assigned Parking' - 24-Hour Grace Period for Trespassers…read more This review is to warn current and prospective residents about a critical, unacceptable policy failure regarding assigned parking at 100 Moffett, which Management has formally refused to fix. The Contractual Breach: My lease guarantees an "assigned" and "exclusive" parking space. However, management has an internal policy that grants any unauthorized vehicle a 24-hour grace period before the vehicle is eligible for towing, even after a resident reports the violation. The Result of the Policy: This policy means that even if you pay for an exclusive spot, Management's own rules guarantee a trespasser 24 hours of free, legal use of your property. When I reported an unauthorized vehicle occupying my assigned space, the vehicle remained present for multiple hours despite contacting the patrol, the towing company, and maintenance. This proves the management's enforcement policy is a failure to provide a contracted service, forcing the paying resident to park in unsafe or unassigned areas. Management's Refusal to Resolve: After a detailed exchange of emails, management (Prometheus) has confirmed in writing that: They will not change the policy allowing the 24-hour grace period for assigned spots. They refuse to provide residents with a documented, specific "Urgent Towing Protocol" to bypass the 24-hour waiting period, even after multiple requests. Prospective tenants must be aware: Assigned parking at 100 Moffett is not exclusive. Management knowingly maintains a policy that compromises your exclusive right, fails to enforce the terms of the lease, and provides no documented solution for immediate removal. We are now pursuing formal complaints with the local Housing Authority regarding the loss of a contracted housing service.
