Fruitdale Station Apartments

Came here to tour a one bedroom & was met with the biggest clown (leasing manager). Immediate attitude/entitlement with no desire to be helpful with the process. HUGE red flag, good luck to anyone looking to live/living here.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Our year at Fruitdale Station was one of the worst rental experiences we’ve ever had.

The building is poorly maintained—elevators were down for weeks at a time, the water was turned off six times during our lease, and fire alarms went off in the middle of the night at least four times, disrupting everyone’s sleep. The noise levels in the building were constant, making it nearly impossible to enjoy any quiet time at home.

When it came time to move... out, we were shocked by the charges they imposed. They billed us to resurface and repaint entire walls for a single nail hole—charges that go far beyond normal wear and tear. It felt like they were looking for every excuse to nickel-and-dime us on the way out.

For the steep rent they charge, this place is wildly mediocre. Save yourself the stress and look elsewhere. Fruitdale Station is not worth the frustration or the expense. Read More

Lived here for about 2 years. 3 Bed / 3 Bath.
If I were you I would look somewhere else. You will be charged a lot of money when you are moving out no matter what. During the final inspection I was told they were "doing us a favor" by going easy on us. Sure buddy. A thousand dollar favor.
Aside from the terrible office staff the people that live here are LOUD. I had to complain about loud music multiple times per week.
The rating is low for a reason. RUN

Highway robbery! They make you pay at least 2K when you move out, doesn't matter how long you live. This place is close to 280 and Willow Glen but is neither safe or luxurious! No parking unless you pay for extra spot. I lived here almost three years and witness on the streets or in the garage, cars still get broken into and things get stolen often. Appliances are not new and have visible dents. Thin walls and loud street noises. Staff and security is a joke! They don't care about residents... whatsoever. All staff care about is leaving work early, even if you call or walk into office for anything half an hour before they close, they will ask you to come back the next day. The pool is always noisy when weather is nice and no one monitors it after 10pm. Elevator breaks down every other week. Oh yea, the leaf blower guys starts up at 8am 6 days a week. What friggin genius made that call! On top of everything, whatever the contract says is BS, you will pay at least 2,000 once you move out. They will charge you for EVERYTHING, even if you already paid for cleaning they will make something up and charge you for cleaning on their terms.

I have live there for years 4br then 2br. The manager in the office is rule and raised rent $100 every year. The trucks in front of the supermarket are extremely loud starting at 6:30am. Sent many emails complain about the unbearable noise but no response. Yet they continue to raise rent every year. They don’t care if you are leaving because they charge you cleaning fee when you leave. They charged $600 additional cleaning fee when I was leaving in the 4 bedroom. Very bad management there.
