Awesome Place to Live!!
I really enjoy living at 201 River Street. The building is clean, new, and maintained well. The management is super responsive to anything I may need, and I love the security of the key card, as well as the overnight security company keeping watch, it really makes me feel safe. And honestly the location can't be beat, it's easy walking distance to so many things; downtown, the new River Street shopping center, Trader Joe's, and a 30 second jaunt to the freeway. I truly am happy to come home… every day.
