Ariva Apartments

Very nice apartments!
Came here for an event and I must say it was a pleasure to see what this apartment complex was all about.
They have a very spacious park nearby and it was really nice seeing residents take walks and play with their kids and dogs! Shows how friendly the neighborhood is which is always a plus when finding a place to live!
They have a beautiful pool and hot tub which is a nice amenity and they also have an indoor work out area which could def save you money on getting a gym membership.
There’s a lot of food places and stores nearby so it’s very convenient for those who don’t like driving so far!

This is the kind of place I wish I had friends live so that I can visit and check it all out firsthand.
I came here for an event, and I had never explored this area to know people could live here. It seems like this residential community is slowly growing, and Ariva is its newest addition.
Of course I’m going to see the proverbial early Unilocal reviews for this place that are all over the spectrum, so I honestly can’t take anybody’s word on how this place truly is. So whether I see a 5 star review or 1 star review, it has absolutely no influence on my own impression.
It does seem pricey to live here, from what I’ve heard. I won’t broadcast the exact figures over the internet, but if you’re curious, you can always ask them directly. Internet-​saavy folks can always find a way to contact companies and locations directly.
Fortunately, the pool area is a great place for events, and I’m glad the surrounding buildings seem fine with it. With so many noise-​Napoleons, I’m surprised they haven’t yelled at us. But then again, the owner was there at the event, so good luck filing that noise complaint.
There’s a park in the center of the buildings as well, and it’s not too far from Sonic, Butcher Shop restaurant, and CA-​163.
One of these days, I tell ya, one of these days, I’ll have the goods to live in one of these hoods.

I thought it was about time I write a review after seeing some of the other posts on here. I moved in almost a year ago and have definitely noticed a change for the better in the past few months. The new office staff are all very nice and know how to get things done! Every time I have brought something to their attention they are quick to respond.
They have resident events monthly and have food trucks twice a month, which are great when I don’t feel like cooking.
The park is also very convenient being a pet owner, and the location is so central it’s easy to get anywhere.

If Ariva is good for something, it is definitely at throwing a good community event! I was here for an event with Unilocal,and I must say if these are what the resident events are like… See y’all when my lease ends! There was wine, there was food, and prizes (lots of prizes), and did I mention there was wine? Every resident I met was happy (or on a good buzz) so that’s a good sign.
The property itself is gorgeous and the staff was welcoming. Linzy, the leasing manager, showed me two models and successfully made me very jelly of whoever lived there. In all seriousness, I’d consider moving here after my current lease ends.
Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for a place. I’m sure glad I did ;)

This property is beautiful. The park in the center is beautiful. The patios here are spacious. They are building new units and have some really cool features and amenities. The service is friendly and knowledgable. Linzy is a great tour guide and this Unilocal event is nice.

We moved into Ariva apartments in August of 2015, everything was well maintained and staff was quick to respond to any repairs needed. They had a great cleaning staff that cleaned everything everyday. New management took over around March 2016. Since new management took over the place is a disaster.
The elevators are now filthy and smell like pet urine, garbage cans are overflowing and outside grills are disgusting. New management, despite numerous mentions of issues nothing gets done. I speak with many tenants and all feel the same! Can’t wait till lease is up! Steer clear of this place it’s over priced and poorly maintained and I see no changes on the horizon!

If you’re considering a move here… please do it!
I lived here for one year, my lease recently expired and because I’m expecting a job transfer I didn’t resign. My year at Ariva was absolutely great. They did have quite a few personnel changes during my time at the complex but oh well.
My only complaint is: I had a two bedroom apartment which had no functioning window in the master. The window in this particular unit is completely sealed and does not open… beware. My issue with said window was the master bedroom also had very poor air recirculation which made for some very uncomfortable summer nights. However, that was a minor issue when considering everything in its totality. There was also the random marijuana smell in the hallways from time to time, but again nothing major.
The complex is very clean, always quiet and I personally never had any insect issues. The amenities are nice, they include a humongous jacuzzi, cool gym and a beautiful outdoor grill area.
As far as apartment living goes, Ariva is as good as it gets.

This place is solid. I’m so glad I moved here. There are two sets of amenities between the two buildings, the location is awesome and everyone is friendly in the office. They have huge balconies on some apartments so if you like to entertain or just hang out, it’s perfect. If you’re looking for a luxury place but don’t want to deal with all the traffic in Mission Valley, this is it.

I love these Apartments, modern, spacious and lot’s of amenities… even a Dog-​wash.
A nice Park right there for my Grandchildren to play. Friendly and knowledgeable Staff… we feel lucky to have found this place.

A month ago I would have given this place a 1 star. Today I’m giving it three stars because the stellar staff with avenue 5. They have gone above and beyond making my stay here alittle more pleasant. I’ve gone through ALOT!!! Walk in Shower flowing onto the floor, pipe broke on the floor above me and the water came through my ceiling in the kitchen and my bathroom, getting stuck in the elevator and having fire rescue come get us out because the emergency button didn’t work. (Thank God for cell phones) and last but not least the old assistant manager with greystar living above me and ignorantly being loud from 6am– midnight every single day even on weekends. Stomping and kids running constantly! So thankfully avenue 5 came in and saved the day! Also they have cleaned up greystars mess and are making things right!
Yes a lot of these reviews are pretty correct, with what has gone on. But I believe that the new management is doing what they can to fix and make right to the best of there ability. Thank you Avenue 5! I do love living here with all the amenities and the layout of my apartment it’s great! So now I’m looking forward to the rest of my stay here at ariva.

I recently moved into Ariva and I love it. The location is so convenient being close to major freeway’s, you can be in Mission Valley in 5 minutes, Downtown or La Jolla in 10. It’s pet friendly and they even have a dog wash on the property! With this recent heat wave I’ve been enjoying the pool that has cabanas with TV’s in them. There is also a beautiful park right outside my building that I can take my dogs to. Everyone in the office was friendly and made my move in easy. This community is exactly what I was looking for.

We are in the middle of year two at Ariva — overall, we have been pretty happy with our stay here. Anyone who has come & visited us over the years has raved about the place.
Reading the reviews here, some are accurate, and some are just a bit over-​the-​top dramatic… From a couple who has been here from the start, here is the good and bad from what we have experienced:
Positives:
* Amenities are excellent and well maintained. The place has two communities, each with a pool/​hot tub, fitness center, yoga studio, game room, clubhouse, and community patio with barbecue grills… They are rarely busy. Everything is kept clean and orderly. I’ve lived in some nice complexes, and the amenities here may be the best I’ve ever come across — really top notch. I can’t stress that enough.
* Apartments are very sharp. Some people are posting horror stories here — we have never had any major issues with the build quality. There are some small imperfections — a loose cabinet here & there, a crack in the wall, a tile that comes loose — but maintenance is on top of things. If something is wrong, we have issued a maintenance request it has been handled within a few days.
* It’s a very dog friendly community — Centrum Park is a great area to take you dog. People do tend to let their dogs off leash (which is not advised), and you will stumble upon some landmines throughout the park from owners who aren’t watching their dogs closely. But that being said, Ariva does not maintain the park and is not responsible for people not picking up after their pets in the park area.
* Over the spring & summer months, they invite food trucks out to the community on a weekly basis — an awesome idea, although I’d be a bit hefty if I tried em all! Management has recently changed, and I hope they keep up with this — it helps make the complex feel like a «community.»
* I see a lot of people complaining about ants/​pests. Pest control comes out to the complex every Friday. If you have any issues, you can just go down to the front office during the week and request an appointment with pest control, free of charge. We had an issue with ants when we originally moved in, but it was handled immediately and we haven’t had any infestations within the past year and a half.
* Landscaping is very well kept. Again, Ariva is not responsible for maintenance of Centrum Park — but the Ariva grounds themselves are very clean.
* A secure building, and they have additional security on the premises at night.
* Access to a convenient online portal for payments, community posts, and maintenance requests.
Negatives:
* Management has changed three times since we moved in here — the front office has probably gone through about 10 different people in the past couple years. We developed a great relationship with Azineth, Mia, and Jose, but they have all left. It’s challenging to develop a relationship with an ever-​changing front office staff!
* They are building an extension of the complex across Ariva Way, so there is current daily construction that will continue through 2017. Luckily, our unit is not facing the construction, but be advised of the noise if you are facing west.
* We have come across dog poop in the hallways and/​or fire escapes before. SMH… People, PLEASE pick up after your dogs ESPECIALLY in the building interior — is that too much to ask??? There are pet pick-​up stations everywhere around the complex! Grab a few bags and tie them to your dog leash.
* Thin walls. We’ve had some noise complaints over the years, but truth be told we hear our neighbors too. We just choose to accept it for what it is. Almost every place I’ve ever lived has been like this.
* Units are equipped with ridiculously sensitive fire alarms.
* Expensive for Kearny Mesa… but it’s a sharp looking complex with excellent amenities in an expensive city. You pay for what you get!
We will be moving out later this year when our lease expires, but we’ve been happy to call this our home for the past two years. I personally can’t speak for the new management company — Avenue 5 — as they are still transitioning over… but our experiences with Riverstone and Greystar has been positive. Overall, 3.5 to 4 stars.

******PLEASE READ IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE INFORMED OF MALPRACTICE AT THIS COMMUNITY
***Please be warned that this review will contain profane language and will probably be super long
My boyfriend and I lived at this community for 10 months. At first, we thought this was a great place. Maintenance was really on top of things, and like others have said, Azineth, Mia, and Jose were amazing. They were honest, friendly, and got things done. When they left, Ariva’s service came crashing down. There were new leasing consultants every time I went into the office, and I never even bothered to learn anyone’s name because they were always gone the next time I was there. The only good thing that came out of everyone I like leaving was the arrival of Katie B. She was a fantastic assistant manager: she was also always honest with us and did her best to make sure we enjoyed where we lived.
Also, the quality of the apartments is shit. Yeah, everything looks nice when you first tour it, but as you live there, you start to notice big shitty mistakes that they made (and could have avoided if they didn’t use cheap materials/​tried to get things done too quickly). The cabinets broke easily, and the one time the contractors came in to «fix» our cabinet drawers, they broke them. We couldn’t pull them open anymore. They probably came into our apartment three times just to fix the cabinets, and they came in once to fix the sink because apparently in someone’s apartment, the sink fell straight through to the bottom. If you’ve lived at an apartment before, it gets pretty annoying to have people come in all the time. They should have just taken more time to make sure they got the apartments right the first time around. Echoing the reviews of others, yes, there is an ant problem, and it gets worse during the summer. I understand that most new apartments aren’t perfect, but the amount of issues this one has is overwhelming. And as a nonsmoking community, there sure is a lot of smoking here.
Okay, on to the malpractice. My boyfriend and I moved out on January 13, 2016. Most people DON’T know that when you move out of an apartment, it is CALIFORNIA LAW for the apartment complex to send your deposit check back to you 21 days after you move out. The day after we moved out, Ariva switched companies from Greystar to Avenue 5, and let me tell you, Avenue 5 is a hot effing mess. Sometime around the 21^st day, we came in to the office to tell them we haven’t received our deposit. They told us that because they switched companies, their systems were down for a couple of days and they couldn’t access our info. Okay, we understood that and gave them a couple more days. Fast forward a couple of days to a Saturday. Some lady from corporate is in the office, and she tells us that she still can’t access the info, but to make us happy, she says that she just wants to get our check to us as fast as she can and that we didn’t have to worry about utilities for the last month (as a courtesy for taking so long with our check). She then tells us that she will try to get the check in our mailbox by Tuesday. Well just as expected, no check on Tuesday. My boyfriend goes in to the office and the same lady from corporate tells him that it’ll probably be there Wednesday. Nope, wasn’t there Wednesday either. He goes in again on Wednesday, she tells him Thursday. And no surprises here, nothing in our mailbox on Thursday. By now, I’m telling my boyfriend that this goddamn company is taking advantage of his niceness. He makes another trip there on Friday (30^th day since we’ve moved out). The lady tries to offer him a giftcard for his troubles, which he did not accept. Later that day, I call the damn office, tell them that it’s RIDICULOUS how long they’re taking. No apologies there. Oh, and corporate lady also told me that she «never» said that we didn’t have to pay utilities for the last month. THIS WOMAN LIED TO MY FACE. Granted, we should have gotten it in writing, but still. So now our intentions are to go to court for the late deposit check.
The law is very black and white. There’s no question about it. They broke the law when the check didn’t get there by the 21^st day. My boyfriend was VERY understanding and gave them plenty of time and gentle reminders (he gave them more than a week), and they took advantage of him.
SO, if they screw you over and don’t get your check to you, just know that you have the upper hand (you can sue for up to 2x the amount of your deposit). Also, get EVERY promise they make you in writing. Sorry for the foul language, but this company needs to get their shit together.

Shout out to Mia and Jose who were both diamond-​star workers and really convinced us that this would be our home for the next few years, even with the new building coming. There was no doubt that they left a really positive impression on us, and many other tenants, and their departure within 2 months after our move-​in, was the start of the rapid decline in service and satisfaction within the community (maybe even longer but more notable within the neighbors that I do know).
Note: I have not had any problems with the service from Ron and Gino either. They were responsive and showed their best effort to address our facilities/​maintenance requests. The service app was convenient and they worked quickly to find out the situation and reach a fix/​resolution quickly.
We started off loving the place and the service. The amenities are great, mostly between the hours of 9a-​5p, then it’s limited options while the office is closed. Gym is 24-​hours, pool and bbq area until 9p (I think) and yoga/​cycle room, movie studio, clubhouse, game room are all available only during the office hours. Clubhouse does have an optional $ 50 fee to have private evening events.
We found ourselves inundated with e-​mail notifications about people parking in visitor spaces designated for guests, or commercial zones, or time-​restricted parking spaces or the leasing office’s future resident parking.
Then there were blast e-​mails about people not picking up after their dogs or letting their dogs run freely in the community park.
Then there were warnings about people’s cars being towed for still disregarding their numerous e-​mails. Not one of these e-​mails applied to me or my house.
BUT. when we e-​mailed our complaint to the Ariva Management (after several discussions with our neighbors and the community about our shared issues) regarding the amount of noise that transfers through the ceilings and floors, we did not hear a word for them. This was not a fault of the residents but the management and the poor building structure, for their inconsideration for having a family of young energetic children living on higher floors who cannot run around and be children. I pursued the management’s response multiple times over 6 weeks and never got a satisfactory response. After 2 weeks, I did receive an acknowledgement explaining the matter was escalated to the Regional Manager who would respond to me within a week, but never heard from her either. Instead, we all received a notice on our doors, stating the new management is Avenue5 Residential, effective Jan 14, 2016. Two weeks after the new management and still no further response or acknowledgement.
I can share the e-​mail and all of their notices for anyone to review. They built this reputation and exposed this level of service to the residents, so they should be proud of it.
What others have posted since June 2015, I’m either aware of, witnessed, experienced or can barely defend. Ariva is a horrible example of ‘luxury apartment’, more like a nightmare lease agreement.
1) Ants– absolutely, regularly, in various rooms or apartments.
2) Sketchy people– yes they exist, they write immature comments on people’s doors, cars or in the elevator and have such an unfriendly attitude towards a community of neighbors. To be fair, I’ve met fantastic tenants, even the family above me, so I’ve not directly had bad experiences with this but they have. it’s shockingly bad!
3) Storage– don’t expect to get it, even if you are on a waiting list.
4) Parking– tandem parking. Visitor spaces aren’t fairly monitored.
5) Sounds/​noise– expect to hear everything from your upstairs and maybe even downstairs neighbors, as well as the arguments/​conversation/​pet fights from Domain. along with their frequent tow trucks and police visits.
6) Construction material– examine the building’s design and apartment quality before signing the lease.
7) The trash/​recycle room gets dumped regularly by people (see #2) who don’t want to open the chute to throw their bags in or drag their unwanted furniture and piles of boxes down to the main trash area.
8) The security patrol– if you figure out who their current vendor is and the correct number to call, you most likely will have someone from the call center giving you attitude & directions on how to file the complaint that they don’t deal with, because they are just the after hours call service for the office (I don’t know what service they provide!)
9) Secured doors– they get propped opened for extended periods of time by people smoking outside or people moving in or out.
10) Elevators– expect to wait or be directed in the opposite direction of what you indicated before you waited. There is no logic to these elevators.
For full disclosure: Katie B. (wrote a 5-​star review) was hired as the ARIVA Assistant Manager shortly after her review and during the time that my complaint was overlooked. She chose a new career and has left working for ARIVA.

I lived here for one year. The price is higher than average, but the amenities offered are impressive. Jose and Mia provide outstanding customer service. Andrea, the blond others are refering to, and Azineth do not. I will leave it at that. The buildings were quickly constructed so the interiors do have lots of tiny flaws that can irritate over time. Trash is always overflowing and moving blankets were hanging in the elevator for a year.
Communication is not valued between staff and residents. This was always apparent but definitely underscored with the move out process when I had to contact them constantly for any news or information, and was provided a good deal of misinformation.
Oh and surprise: They are building more buildings next to our complex. We were informed a week before ground breaking. So we unwittingly lived next to a construction site. We would have never elected to pay over 2k per month for a one bedroom next to construction where there is red dust on everything in your house if you leave your patio door open. Also I have had the staff prioritize vendors over me.
Overall. I was disappointed. If I lived at the amenities instead of my apartment I would probably be much happier. If everything was included and they did everything they talked about doing, I would be much happier. If you really care about image, and do not care too much about quality, value or construction noise this might be the place for you.

We have lived at Ariva for a year and half now (since the second building opened).
The good: We love our building and the amenities. Maintenance has always been quick to respond to issues. The staff in the office has always been quite nice, but there has been quite a bit of turnover and the entire original staff (an amazing team that always went above and beyond!) is now gone. The convenience to all of San Diego County is great. And it’s so nice to have a park next door for our son to play at or to walk our dog at. The new buildings are beautiful and modern. There are two great gyms, 2 salt water pools, a washer and dryer in every unit, and wood laminate flooring in the main living area. The previous management company was stellar. Their on site staff was amazing, responsive and always kind. It will be interesting to see what happens in regards to customer service at the front office. Initially, we didn’t mind paying such a hefty price tag when we experienced such top-​notch service from Mia, Jose, Azineth, Gino and Andrea. (So far, I’m not impressed– the new staff, although professional, lack the warmth of the previous staff that drew us to the property initially and they do not cater to the residents needs so much…).
The not-​so-​great: this is where they lose a star or two… There is a real issue with noise. The floors are very thin and we can hear our neighbors pretty clearly. If a child runs across a floor, it sounds like a herd of elephants. It isn’t so bad during daytime hours, but at night (during what is supposed to be quiet hours) the lack of consideration from neighbors makes this a difficult situation to deal with. The other issue (although not necessarily the fault of Ariva– and more of a jacka** issue) is the absolute disregard some of the residents have for the property and neighbors. People spill drinks and food on the floors and in the elevator and don’t do anything about it. It’s as if they think their mommy will come behind them to clean up. Same goes for dogs messes and people throwing trash on the floor. The maintenance and cleaning staff are stretched very thin because of this behavior. There also is a bit of a security issue. We had the lock on a bike cut in the bike parking inside the secure and gated garage stolen within the first two weeks we were here. I think it would really benefit the management company to have a security presence on the property at all times– to deter thieves and manage unruly/​irresponsible neighbors… I also wish that their security footage was accessible in the case of theft. d

We’ve been living here for a couple of months, and all the reviews posted here sound reasonable. The good sides mentioned: true. The bad sides mentioned: also true.
First off, the place LOOKS really nice. The exterior and the interior have been nicely designed, and look very modern and clean. The amenities offered here, like the gym, bbq area, and the pool, are all very awesome to use. You can tell they’ve spent quite some time designing the place, and whenever we invite our friends over, they comment on how nice the place is. And despite what some have commented, I find all the neighbors to be really friendly. People randomly greet us and are considerate enough to move their dogs aside (I’m kind of scared of dogs. ironic, since I live at one of the most dog-​friendly apartments in town, hahaha). There are lots of events the apartment throws, too. Oh, and whenever there is a problem, like if something broke, Ariva sends someone over to fix it the next day or two; they’re really great about that. Overall, Ariva is a nice play to live at. I feel safe here.
However, the bad reviews are also all partly true. There were LOTS of ants in the summer, and that really stressed me out. But then again, that wasn’t Ariva’s fault. The area has lots of ants, not just Ariva, and so when it was really hot and the ants lacked a water source, they stormed into homes. Ariva sent ant terminators to solve the problem, which worked for a while, but when they returned, we had to call the office again. I understand that this wasn’t Ariva’s fault, but it was a stressful experience for us. Also, I think there has been a recent change of management or something, because the front office workers have been constantly changing. We’ve put in our referral for a friend over two months ago, but we still haven’t heard anything about it. Technically, it has been over 4 months, but the worker who initially was supposed to work on it left. I understand that changes take a while to get accustomed to, but I think something’s been going on. And my last complaint is the noise. The walls aren’t too super thin, but as someone has mentioned, there are crazy racers (?) driving in jet speed like at 3 or 4 am. It’s louuuudd. That’s not Ariva’s fault, but I’m just confirming what the other reviewer has said. And there’s this banging noise against the balcony rails or something every night. I can’t figure out what that is…
No place is perfect, but Ariva is a nice place to live at, minus some mishaps. The rent is definitely on the pricier side, so hence the more critical review of the place.

The thing that has really set me off about this place is the way they handled service requests. The plumbing system somewhere below me had a clog and it caused issues at my place. I submitted a request but before they responded, waste from the guy above me had backed up into my toilet. I called the emergency request line and they offered to file a service request for me… What do they even have jobs like that for? When a real plumber showed up he said the only way to fix it was to go to the apartment above me but he had the nerve to just flat out say, «no, you can’t come in.». They told him not to use his master bathroom toilet but he didn’t feel like listening so midnight came and the whole plumbing system completely overflowed. Maintenance didn’t come again until noon the next day and it took weeks to get a solution. Update: someone during construction stuck a 2×4 piece of lumber into the plumbing system on the bottom floor. They had to rip everyone’s walls out to be able to fix the problem.
–The amenities are amazing and beautiful but do not work. Jacuzzi was out of service for a couple weeks straight. None of the barbecues work, all the knobs have been broken off. And the hours of operation for the common areas are hilarious. If you work, you won’t have the schedule to use most of the things you pay for.
–Apparently there is a movie theater upstairs but the door is always locked and I have yet to find a way to schedule use of it.
–The maintenance at the complex is horrendous. The buildings are relatively new but the carpets are disgusting and often soaked in garbage water from someone’s carelessness.
–I live in one of the largest two bedroom apartments but the bedroom sizes are ridiculously small.
–The build quality of the entire building is terrible. The beautiful walk-​in tiled master shower drains water all over the bathroom floor. (They fixed this once but only took out half the tile and didn’t check that the problem was solved before calling the job finished. It is worse than ever now.) The trim by my shower is already water-​logged and discolored.
–You might think living next to a park would be nice but keep in mind that it is a public park. It’s not a dog park but you’d never know that. A resident actually got in a physical altercation with a humane society officer and he was taken off in the back of a police car.
–The way most residents act, it is hard to understand why they want to live here. No one cares about what they do or how much of a mess they leave or how they affect other people.
–The residents at Domain which is next door are TERRIBLE. Blasting music, renting the pool to throw parties, parking however they feel, and causing multiple police visits.
–The street noise is unbearable.
–The walls and ceilings are paper thin.
–There is absolutely zero security here. No one here wants to use their keys so they just prop every door open with rocks or twigs.
–The fridge is not made for an average height person.
–The blue angels practice formations at what has to be an illegally low altitude right over the complex and surrounding areas.
–People will park in your spot constantly. The 20 minute parking for the park or visitors is always full with people parking for weeks at a time.
–The elevators are painfully slow and do not follow any pattern that is even remotely
comprehendible to me.
–Not a single thing that you agree to in your lease is actually enforced. Christmas lights year round, towels in windows being used as curtains, and most balconies are just used for storage.
–Ants errywhere. All day erry day.
For what you would pay to live here, the area is awful, amenities are usually out of service, residents do not care how they affect anyone else, and the build quality and design of the apartments is worse than a hostel.
This place is deceitfully attractive on first visit but please just do some more research. It’s no surprise to me that they have paid for billboards off the freeway and hired sign twirlers most days of the week. Doesn’t seem like anyone is happy here.
The new management seems friendly and they mostly only hire attractive 20 or 30 something females but they will never email you back. Rent is supposedly increasing starting around May or June and I have reached out to them many times to find out what these new rates will be so I can get a head start on finding a new place but haven’t received a single word back. Their one office phone line is also always busy. Always straight to voicemail and there is no chance they will call you back.

2 stars for Jose, who is the only true star of the staff and has left.
1. ANTS ANTS ANTS ANTS! Tons of ANTS! I live on the 4^th floor and still ants are crawling everywhere no matter how many ant baits you set up and how hard you have been fighting them.
2. Totally sound-​not-​at-​all-​proof. Yes, the neighbor slams his door. Yes, people below me is showering and walking like a T-​Rex! Yes people below me is having a party as if he’s turning his place a night club. No, when I was about to complain, they were just doing their daily routine normally and having fun with friends in a moderate way.
3. THEFT! I placed a metal shelf with 2 boxes on my assigned parking spot on Sunday, because the balcony needs to be cleaned up and there’s not too much storage room. On Wednesday everything along with the shelf disappeared!!! No notice, no reminder. I immediately talked to the leasing office but they act like it’s none of their business and the CAMERA IS OFF. They’re still building up the system after the first tenant has been living here for over one year.
4. Crappy construction material. It looked fancy from outside, just looked that way.

Promoting healthy living, living here at ariva I have lost 15lbs (not
much, but a lot for me!).
With their 24 hour fitness center I have incorporated not only strength and endurance training… but also circuit and weight training… it’s convenient, clean, and offers a variety of options!!! Soon offering yoga classes… things are kicking off even better and healthier for the new year!!!
