2005-05-10 20:04:52   A word about these apartments. Good location BUT cold in the winter, extremely hot in the summer. AC did not cool anything and the heat never heated anything. You get the idea. —ColinWen

2005-09-17 18:53:50   I stayed for a month in a friend's apartment at Sequoia. The central A/C was fine, except that it didn't work for two days. The managament (notably Tom & Michelle) were responsive and helpful, though. —JoFeuerstein

2007-02-09 20:17:33   This is my second year living in Sequoia. It's not luxury, but I've certainly found it adequate and affordable. I live in a 4 bedroom, 2 floor apt. , and I also find that the downstairs is cold (drafty) in the winter, but our apt. is naturally cool in the summer because it's shaded by the other buildings. I also agree that the management are very nice, helpful, and responsive. (Michelle has been replaced by Elizabeth.) —AmandaSmith

2007-08-01 22:48:52   Just moved into a one bedroom in Sequoia. Very nice place, nice grounds, nice neighborhood, and affordable. TONS of storage space—there's an enormous (if slightly funky) linen closet near the kitchen, plus an outdoor closet on our balcony/entryway. Air conditioning worked pretty well when we were moving in, even though we had the door open for a good half an hour on a hot day while we were dragging stuff in. Very happy with our choice; I'll come back and post more after we've been here a while. —RyanSandler

2007-10-14 13:55:51   Our air conditioner was recently "fixed" to not blow out cold air, and they've yet to come around and fix some of the things we requested, but overall, so far so good. The bus stop is one of the first on the inbound G and J lines, so you basically get first pick of seats everytime you board the bus. The fact that the Marketplace is behind the complex (or the complex is behind the Marketplace?) makes it super convenient for late-night food runs. —AbbYu

2008-02-24 15:16:20   is there laundry in the apartments or is it a laundry room —WeiChun

2008-03-12 17:53:12   There is a laundry room near the main office (behind the mailboxes). It costs $1.25 to wash or dry, so $2.50 total. —AbbYu

2009-02-04 15:43:53   Hi I was wondering how much is the electricity bill avg out to be in the two bedroom apts? —dachen

2009-02-18 22:14:44   So far I love it here. Cozy neighborhood, one of the first stops on the G/J bus line so always have a seat on the ride to class, I'm sharing a very spacious room for $520 but they charge an extra $50/month if there's more than one in a room. When our bathroom kept steaming up we let them know and they installed a window! Then came by a few weeks later to check on us to make sure everything was installed cleanly. Great management, when our lights die they're willing to come over any time to replace them. Very nice to talk to when I run into them while taking the trash out. Parking spaces are limited (we get 2 for our 3 bedroom place) but there's plenty of street parallel parking. RIGT next to the Marketplace, so convenient. —Janette

2009-05-15 11:55:14   Hey, has anyone who lives here and has Comcast had bad internet? Like, intermittent outs and slow times? We had a Comcast guy out here and he said the wires in the apartment complex are old and thin and there was nothing really he could do. Now, not that I trust Comcast, but I was thinking of talking to Elizabeth (in the office) about it and wondered if anyone else had experienced the same problem. —bwana

2009-06-24 08:01:59   dachen: Electricity depends largely on how you and your roommate live. My roommate and usually average around $50-60 (total) and that includes frequent A/C cooling and cooking. —AbbYu

2009-09-20 00:37:43   I LOVED LIVING HERE! ! ! Elizabeth, the mgr is super super nice, and whenever there was something wrong with the apt a handy man would come over asap to fix it....and if it broke again they would get back on it IMMEDIATELY no questions asked. The location is perfect b/c of the J/G bus line with a stop right in front of the complex...plus you get the Marketplace like a 1 min walk away with all its amazing amenities (noahs,jamba, safeway, blockbuster, message envy etc etc). The laundry room was never crowded and I could always find an open washing machine/dryer. The pool came in handy during the hotter months and it was always really clean. Again I can't stress it enough how amazingly nice the complex managers were and the handy people that worked for them...sweeter than sweet and I really do miss all the memories made there!!!! —sasafrass

2010-07-31 12:00:20   The complex is pretty nice although the parking lot is incredibly small. I'm always worried about hitting other cars when I'm backing out of my spot. It also sucks when somebody is in your spot because there are so few visitor spots open since people keep their cars there for weeks at a time. The manager is nice, except for the fact that the office is only open for a few hours a day and its always when I am working. But when I did get ahold of them, the handy man was very good about repairing whatever we needed fixed —JYuki

2011-08-15 22:33:44   I've heard of plenty of apartment horror stories over management and living spaces, but I don't have any to say about this complex. Management is nice, flexible, and responsive. Living space and rent expected is adequate. With the marketplace right next door and first dibs on G/J line, I haven't regretted living here for a single moment in all three years. —ICuric

2012-02-07 17:42:49   I had a great experience living at Sequoia for two years. Yes, the complex is a little older, but anytime I needed something to be fixed, they were there the next day at the latest. Also, when we had problems with out dishwasher, they just replaced the whole thing. Elizabeth was always very receptive to any problems I had. Overall, I thought Sequoia was a great place to live! —KatieSwanson

2012-02-09 16:27:11   Does anyone know if there is a roommate matching program here? —AnnaMah

2012-04-26 16:21:01   We're moving out this summer after living here for 5 years (3 years in a 1 bedroom, 2 in a 2 bedroom). This has been a great home for us. It's typically quiet, the management is nice and always quick to respond to problems. It is very nice to live so close to the Marketplace. It's a quick walk if we forgot to buy an ingredient for dinner, or want to go out for a quick dinner. We never used the pool much, but it's always kept open and clean during the warm months. The small parking lot is a down-side, but our visitors could usually find street parking without going too far when the visitor spots were full. —econmom
