| - I've had a very positive experience here and wanted to share:
I am coming up on my one year at La Estancia. When I was looking I went to a ton of places and stuck with La Estancia and haven't regretted it.
Location- great location, close to Fresh and Easy and albertsons, the park, golf course, canal trail, and a quick drive to shopping/freeways. It's tucked away off the main road so it is quiet and across from a police station making it feel even safer.
Other Tenants- all my neighbors have been friendly and reasonably quiet. A lot of kids live here but I wouldn't know it if I didn't go to work the same time the school bus comes. They are so quiet! No loud parties since I've been here either.
Outside- recently the painting was redone and it looks good. There are covered spots for tenants and guest parking too. I have never had an issue finding parking for our second car in our lot. There are a couple pools, a tennis court, and plenty of trees.
Inside- I live in a one bedroom. It is an open floor plan with plenty of space! The closet in the bedroom is amazing. I wish I had enough stuff to fill it. The kitchen has a large pantry and lots of storage space. Every place I look at now looks so small because it is very open and the rooms are big. The appliances aren't bad. Sometimes my dishwasher gets stuck but I don't use it much so I've never asked to get it fixed. The washer and dryer are newer and I've never had any issues. I've seen some of the re-done units and they look great too! Mine isn't one of the most recently updated ones and it is still perfect. There are two ceiling fans which is nice because I don have to use my AC as much.
Staff- the first time I came to the office after my visit I was shocked the women remembered me! They were nice, friendly and made me feel valued. I ask a lot of questions and know I can be a pest but they are always helpful. I usually go into the office right as they are closing too because of my work hours but they are still kind and help me. I've never needed to call maintenance but each time something has been redone or painted I got a notice well in advance. A couple times the water has had to get shut off but there is always significant notice on that too.
Cost- I pay a little over $700 before utilities. It was more reasonable, bigger, and felt safer than all the other $700+ places I looked at.
Downsides- I don't have much to say. I'm lazy so I wish there was a dumpster closer to my apartment. Where they have them makes sense though so you can't smell them. The gym is small and I've never got to use it because it is only open when the office is, conveniently my work hours. However, I don't think it was like that until someone abused the privilege. There are gyms nearby and the canal/park literally right next to it though so there are other workout options. A bunch of little beetles kept crawling through a crack somewhere in my kitchen during the fall. No harm though and it didn't last long. No roaches or scorpions ever spotted.
