The Hills of Corona Apartments

I’ve been living here for about 4 months now and I LOVE IT! It’s a small calm clean community. Management (Richard, Amber, and Veronique) are very helpful, nice and professionals. The couple times I’ve had requested a service, they fix it the next day. I think it was Jose. The gym is small but has everything you need and its clean! It has two pools with a bbq grill and a fireplace. All my family and friends that visit love it. Wouldn’t leave this community, unless I’m buying a house!

Do not under any circumstances live here. This place Sux! Management and staff are the worsest! They are diligent about collecting their rent but when it comes to taking care of tenants and the service requests, they NEVER take care of it in a timely manner or ignore it all together! I predict that sooner or later they will have to face a lawsuit from one of the tenants because tenants have a right too and people please speak up if you feel you’re being treated unfairly also.

100% agree with most recent post. I have now been living here for a few days any problems we have had were addressed and corrected extremely fast. I feel that people who are happy don’t realize their good reviews can make a huge impact and the 1 disgruntled person out of the majority of happy customers can really bring a rating down. I will continue to update this post during the term of my lease!
As of right now these apartments are amazing and the staff have all been very helpful!
Every maint. Complaint i submitted and even things I didn’t submit but the maint. Guy Brian could see it needed repair were done the next day. Brian was also cautious of my cat and made sure he didn’t escape to roam the wilds of Corona!

If i could give this community a no star I would. The management co. is horrible!!! Since this new management co has taken over this community has gone to hell! The property has too. I have a psycho neighbor who has been a crazy nu-​sense for 2 years now, being arrested due to domestic issues along with police and property security being called and she still continues to live here not matter how many of us neighbors have complained about her. She smokes and is constantly leaving her cigarette butts on the walkway, ive complained and even asked to see my lease agreement as i believed this was a smoke free community and low and behold my lease does say its a smoke free community, but when i brought it up to the property manager I was told that they marked the wrong box on my lease agreement and it is in fact ok to smoke. How can you make such a mistake on a legal document like a lease agreement? The only good thing I can say about the community is the maintenance group are very nice and accommodating. I have never had an issue with something being fixed. This community is to high priced for what you get! and the pain you have to endure with the management co. Such a shame we lost the old one (Sares-​Regis). They seemed to care about their residence. I cant say the same for this one (Greystar)! All they want is to get people in no matter what cost! The turn over is amazing! I see people leaving right and left!!! That should tell you something!!! Dont Rent Here!!!

Soo I’ve been searching for an apartment in the corona area for at least 3 months and when I first seen this place back in. Dec 2015 I instantly fell in love but of course when hunting you have to do ALL your researxh, & the looks of the reviews made me question everything about this place literally. I was very hesitant when I seen the reviews some were really bad and it can be risky sometimes based off of that alone. anyways i was very inpatient at first and was looking elsewhere when they told me the apt wasn’t ready for viewing, we’ll I took a chance and I LOVE these apartments! They are absolutely gorgeous! the new management has done a lot of improvements since the old reviews. Don’t sleep on this place. if you like quality and character in a place & want to. call it home, this is it in corona

So I haven’t been here a month and I came home to water all around my toilet and some growing like fungus coming out of the coroner of my cabinets. I called maintenance and it took me hell just to get him to come out for him to tell me he’s coming from Victorville can it wait till the morning wtf are you kidding me. when I moved it I had a few issues that got fixed but to come home to this really grinds my gears

The Hills Of Corona is an otherwise pleasant community staffed by an ambitious and friendly team of maintenance and rental advisors.
The units are generally nice and clean and the property offers some lovely amenities.
The problem is with the ownership, that refuses to implement a security system of surveillance cameras and/​or security patrol in light of SERIOUS CRIME EPIDEMIC. During the last 10 months I’ve experience the breakin of my vehicle and later, the actual theft of the same vehicle, recovered the next day «totaled» in a Corona ghetto. An obviously unpleasant experience. Additionally, for a period of approx 6 weeks, I was not able to receive my personal mail due to breakin and destruction of the post-​box system on the property. The issue with vehicle/​apt breaking is pervasive and very real and my experience is just one of several unfortunate incidences that have occurred here during my 1-​year lease. Do not be misled. Security services are not present here.
I feel sorry for the staff, of generally lovely & helpful ppl, that have to deal with the fallout of the serious crime issue on this property.
ITS THE OWNERSHIP THAT SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES. Every other property in the surrounding area offers a security program and the Hills Of Corona has unfortunately distinguished itself as a beacon to criminals/​drug addicts for their crime exploits as a result of the general freedom that they are afforded here. Be advised

My fiancé and I have lived here for almost a year and love the property. We have every intention of renewing our lease when it’s up. Over the past year there has been a few issues definitely, however when the new company (grey star) took over management we were curious and so we went in to meet the new employees that we basically will be sharing our homes with.
We met with Joseph who very kindly and specifically addressed all of the past issues we had and assured us of what would be done to prevent them in the future. He, also alerted us to some changes in the policy that would be taking place which we appreciated. Overall he was great and very witty I might add.
We are very pleased and optimistic to be renewing our lease in a few months and would recommend them to anyone else looking for a quality place to live.
Don’t forget to ask for Joseph at the front

I have been working with Richard the last few days on finding the perfect one bedroom for the perfect price. I can not wait till I move in next month with my girlfriend. The staff here is very friendly and Richard resolved all my billing issues saving me a lot of money. I got the room I wanted in the location I wanted all for a very good price. He was able to help me out with everything I wanted. The service was great and I got responses back immediately. I also looked at all the other properties in the area and no other apartment compared to the leasing staff and the actual property. I toured all the properties and this place offered the most options, modern features, and more square footage all for a unbeatable price.

These apartments are gorgeous and a bigger bang for your buck than all the surrounding apartments in the area. I went to 12 apartments when I was looking for a new home and these definitely beat out every other apartment by a long shot.
The staff is very friendly and very professional. They are very helpful and show genuine interest in having you leave happier than you walked in.
I had a few issues with my billing and they resolved them immediately for me with a great positive attitude.
They have not been working here long because their company recently took over but I can already tell that none of the past Unilocal reviews were about them.
Ask for Joseph he will take very good care of you and he is just a great energy to be around. Warning: do not try to outwit him, he is very sharp! Lol

DO NOT MOVE HERE! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! IF THEY HAD A ZERO RATING I WOULD SCORE IT AS SUCH!!!
We just had our 3^rd break in, 4^th attempt (my husband caught them in process of the last time, pressed the panic button on the alarm over and over and they left) management didnt do a thing AGAIN until another neighbor complained. We have a LOT of foot traffic with quick stops to our next door neighbors which means they are either selling girl scout cookies or drugs. Take your pick, no one is walking out with cookies!
Management still will not let us out of our lease without penalty. They have told us they will NOT buy security cameras and it is not their job to keep us safe.
DO NOT MOVE HERE. WE ARE PERSONALLY TELLING EVERYONE WE SEE VIEWING APARTMENTS TO LOOK ELSEWHERE. YOU ARE NOT SAFE AT THE HILLS OF CORONA APARTMENTS.

Not a safe apartment complex. Maintenance and management are friendly but high rate of crime and car break ins.

Today was our first visit to this property. We met with Eboni, and she was fabulous, funny, and very pleasant. She knew all of the answers to our questions. The property was beautiful! It’s in a great location, and the prices are very reasonable. My husband and our son are planning to move in!

The people who run this complex are a nightmare. They don’t give a care in the world to the happiness, safety or well being of the tenants. Aside from horrendous office personnel, the crime level in this complex has shot up in six months. They allow things to happen and simply hold their hands up to say not their problem. There is no security here despite what they tell you. Your car will be broken into and or vandalized, homeless people live in the dumpsters and the gates that are supposed to make you feel safe are always broken. They care more about pool maintenance than anything. Which by the way they will shut down to «repair» in the hottest months of the summer. And the quality of people moving into this complex is going down hill fast. Used to be young families and singles now it’s multiple families in apartments and they take all of the parking. This place sucks and can’t wait til our lease is up to leave

I would give this place zero stars if I could.
I’ve lived here for 2 years. Biggest mistake of my life…
There are break ins constantly, homeless people living in the trash. The apartment claims to have security. They don’t… Me and a bunch of neighbors made it a point to stay up all hours and wait to see if we spot security. They’ve never been spotted once. If you simply drive through this community, you’ll see numerous cars with their windows bashed in, tail gates missing, etc. the crime in the community is insane. There are bugs in the buildings, there’s mold and they’ll take your entire deposit even if you leave the apartment exactly the way you found it. The management is completely unprofessional, and never deal with any of the issues you bring up. The gates have been jammed open for months and nothing has been done. They need to install cameras in the parking area… Apparently the pool took priority over that.
Don’t even think about moving in here. It will be the biggest mistake.
Oh ps you can hear every one of your neighbors conversations through your walls.

STAY AWAY!
STAY AWAY!!!
STAY AWAY!
STAY AWAY!
STAY AWAY!!!
STAY AWAY!

PLEASE READ BELLOW AND SAVE YOUR SELF FROM THIS PLACE
if I could give The Hills Of Corona no stars I would. I would say by far the worst place I have ever lived. I moved from a one bed room on there property to a 2 bedroom still on there property and some how didn’t know my forwarding address. Instead of just walking over and handing me my bill for the one bedroom apartment they chose to just send my final statement to collections. That was strike one.
While living In the 2 bedroom apartment the amount of THEFT that had taken place was insane. I am not kidding when I say a car once a week was STOLLEN, BROKEN INTO, or DAMAGED. Not to mention the amount of BUMs that would come on to the property and go threw the trash cans or checking for unlocked cars. I had multiple neighbors get their gas syphoned out of there vehicles and even two that had gotten into physical altercations over it. When it came to letting the management about this they would say «I am sorry for your lose but it is not our job to ensure safe living for you.» Shortly after the management decided that it was much more important to remodel the pool (that didn’t need it) instead of using my rent money to install cameras or new security systems
When it came time to moving out I had scrubbed the entire apartment top to bottom and painted everything as well. I didn’t want to get charged for any damage so I made sure I left this place in better condition then when I moved in. A month later I was slapped with a 971.88 bill saying they needed to repaint, repair counter tops, clean and replace thing. Which in fact was not true at all. I took up that matter with management Bobbie Schneider that was a waste of time. Instead of actually trying to help me and prove to me where these charges came from she just sent my bill to collections and said there is nothing she can do now
After reading all this I would hope that you see the patter that is going on here. Only thing these people care about is taking your money. Who knows maybe all the theft going on was a inside job and that’s why they didn’t do anything about security
take my advise and
STAY AWAY!!!
STAY AWAY!
STAY AWAY!!!
STAY AWAY !!

Same as everything else I said, but the place was nice to live in. Of course now looking their rents went up. At the time in 2013 I was paying $ 1213 for 1bd 1ba at 700 sqft, now that’s up around $ 1300+. I wouldn’t pay that to live there again, but if rent was lower and after knowing how they overcharge on move out beforehand without it being a surprise, I could live there again. The place was quiet enough, no issues with water shut off, or uncalled visits from management.

fuck this place would never move back so bad had mold all in my place

I lived in this complex for 3 years, and absolutely loved it!!! I moved out to get a bigger apartment after getting married, and the two bedrooms were a little out of my budget at the Hills. However, after moving away I have instantly regretted it. I would go back in an instant and pay the extra money to have a good experience. My apartment was on the bottom floor, and I never had an issue with any noise from the upstairs tenants. The staff was extremely nice, and always willing to help out! Never had a problem with parking, safety, or anything else! The maintenance staff is GREAT at their job, and also extremely friendly! When I moved out, I left the apartment in immaculate condition, except for not cleaning the stove out. They only took $ 15 out of my security deposit, and I had the rest within 3 weeks. The gym is amazing and well taken care of, as well as the pool and all other amenities. I would love to move back anytime!

Very Expensive Rent & The Worst Customer Service … Stay Away !!!
