This place cares more about money than its residents, AND workers. I lived here for a while and they've completely replaced their staff members twice. No one from two years ago, or three years ago, works here anymore. No complaint is ever really solved. There are so many reviews on here about the noise and terrible insulation and its been like this forever. All they do is use rent money on renovating the lobby for visitors, since none of the residents actually use that space. All the hallways that lead to the apartments are still covered in old dirty carpet, the elevators take forever, laundry is so expensive, and the list goes on. This place never really felt like a home and more just like a temporary place to survive, while they try to get the most out of you as possible, with barely anything in return.

The only good thing about this place is the cleaning staff. The place has extremely thin walls, floors, and ceilings, so you can hear a lot from people above/below you, next to you, and through the hallways. Not to mention the plaza space that echoes so much that you can hear footsteps from a mile away. They only ever renovate the facilities, and never where residents actually live. Submitting a maintenance request is hard and unreliable. And the place charges you for everything on top of really high rent that goes up every year. Not worth what it offers, would not recommend.

While the residents are all really nice and it’s a nice area the management company here has been really difficult and is not following the law. Villas refuses to follow rent control and when informing management of our rights we were threatened with eviction via email if we payed the legally allowed rent. Rent increases were 10% one year and 5% the next in violation of measure h. They also require a 2 month notice to move out, which is illegal according to state law (only 30 days is required in reality). Additionally, the apartment has multiple safety concerns. Whenever it rains the hallways leak water on the 3rd floor (and aren’t repaired), a fire occurred my last week living here and the fire alarm only set off much later than is safe. Our ceiling flooded water into the bedroom floor and we weren’t given a place to stay while they repaired the ceiling (weeks later). Not to mention random hot water shut offs and one week on Christmas 2021 our water shut off for over a day for no reason. Lastly, the minute the property manager found out we were giving our 2 month notice, we were constantly asked to move out early as they found a new tenant already and he wanted to move in “asap.” We were also charged an excessive rent increase here our last month, due to month-to-month rent being higher than 5%. You have to sign a yearly lease each year instead of being allowed to go month-to-month after your first year here. Highly recommend people don’t live here if they value their safety and rights as tenants.

This apartment building is very spacious and quiet. The street it is on is very calm and serene with neighbors walking their dogs in a very nice area close to many choice stores and restaurants. The apartments are beautiful and comfortable. There are young people and families living here for a good mix of tenets. The management is absolutely amazing and friendly. I highly recommend The Villas.

My roommates and I were searching for apartments for weeks before we actually took a look a look at Villas of Pasadena. We were pretty stressed during the whole situation and then when I called up the leasing manager, Christy for a last minute viewing- she was able to take us immediately in to view what was available and EVEN decided to show us an upcoming available apartment and where it would be since we didn't have our lease end for another 3 weeks or so. After comparing pricing and the neighborhood safety, we decided to go with Villas of Pasadena... We've been living here for about 2 months and it's been pretty amazing. We have a wide balcony view that gives us a bit of privacy at the same time. They are also VERY pet friendly which was a huge dealbreaker since we have a furry family member. I need to tell you about the maintenance team, especially Bianey. She is truly one of the BEST people I've ever had the opportunity to be in contact with during this whole moving transition and adjustment period. She was quick, prompt and professional. She truly cares about the residents here and always makes sure that we are doing well. Bianey and team, you are really amazing and I thank you for taking such good care of us! Villas of Pasadena is now our official home.

This is a great apartment complex that is well-kept with nice amenities. It is in a great location that is safe, clean, and quiet. The units are renovated and spacious. My only issue is the walls of the bedrooms are thin and so are the doors so you can hear everything in the common area, but at least the bedrooms are separated on either side of the unit.

I lived there for almost two years and I can definitely say it's the worst apartment I have ever experienced. Outdated popcorn ceiling, old fashioned building without accessible path for disabled people. Really really poor manager to work with. Hot water often got shut off and needs almost half day to back to work. They charged you ridiculous, huge amount of move out fee even though most parts are not your fault. Especially they don't allow resident leave their furniture in garbage room for free. Poor amenities, really small gym.

Its a great place to call “Home”. Great apartments in great area! Maintenance and staff are always friendly and quick to respond to any issues. The grounds and facilities are kept very clean everyday. The pool area is lovely! I feel safe here, a beautiful neighborhood! I have loved my time here and will always recommend it to others.
