Good location and neighborhood. Good public transportation and safety. The weather nice. And good food in the neighborhood.

Just moved in a few weeks ago, and already have noticed a ton of problems. Door needed rekeying, dishwasher not closing and not locking, blinds not being able to close, and dryer will NOT start. Called and emailed maintenance multiple times, took a long turn around and was basically ghosted when these issues are urgent especially since our door wouldn't lock?? Trash downstairs in parking lot garage has not been disposed of so there are flies as soon as you exit the building. Huge pile and it smells disgusting. Overall not the best besides location, am looking for new apartments for next year ASAP.

Just minutes from UC Berkeley, 2520 College Avenue stands out for both its location and its amenities. Every unit comes with one dedicated parking space at no extra cost — a rare find in Berkeley — and residents have access to a pool, courtyard, shared backyard with BBQ, common lounge, and bike storage, making it easy to decompress after a long day. Day-to-day living is kept simple with in-unit washer/dryer in select homes, common area laundry, and on-site trash, recycling, and compost services. Whole Foods, Berkeley Bowl, and some of Berkeley's best dining — including La Mediterranee and Sliver Pizzeria — are all within easy reach, and Downtown Berkeley BART keeps the rest of the Bay accessible.
