Simple and peaceful.

Lived here in a studio for several years. Nice and peaceful, good neighbors, good resident managers, never had any major issues. Will look back fondly on my time here.

Wonderfull studio and lovely neighborhood

I rented a studio for almost 2.5 years here and absolutely loved it. the building has an amazing pool/outdoor area, and a comfortable common inside area.

The studio is big and well-distributed. It has a lot of storage space, and a good and huge balcony, which I personally always enjoyed.

The management was always available and promptly answered my requests.
the building is close to parks, and public schools. It has easy access to Stanford, Los Alto, Downtown Palo Alto, and Downtown Mountain… View.
It's also close to Wholefoods, Trader Joe's, Walmart, Safeway, and San Antonio Rd.

I would say that a con is that there is no Caltrain station in a walk distance, but it's for sure in a bike ride distance.

Not responsive at all

I tried to contact this community several times through phone, messages, emails.... Never received any kind of follow-up or response. I would've loved to rent here but turned off by their poor communication skills and how little they care about prospective residents.

Great place, management and location

I rented a studio here for 4 years; management changed during that time but the service level did not - they were always really responsive (not that much needed attention!) and the common areas were also well looked after.

The building is a little older, but that means the apartments are generally bigger with more storage than ones built in the past decade. The interiors are all updated, and there's a lot of light in the living areas too.

Great location too. I'm already missing being able to… walk to Hobee's and the State of Mind pizza/beer house :)

Great place to live

I have sincerely enjoyed my 4 years here. The management is professional and friendly. The building is well kept and any concerns or needs are made in a timely manner. I love the location with two Trader Joe’s nearby, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and one of my most favorite grocery stores is an organic grocery Country Sun on California Avenue. There are also great restaurants close by. Another thing I really like about Union Plaza Apartments is it’s size; two residential floors not too small not to big… .
