Property Ratings at De Sabla Apartments
I’ve lived here for 3 years and highly recommend De Sabla. When I moved here, that was my fourth move in two years due to awful luck with bad landlords and roommates. I’ve been extremely grateful to have encountered no issues with my unit and that all the staff here have been extremely kind, communicative, and responsive. The location within walking distance of downtown San Mateo is excellent. I’ll be moving soon but would continue to stay here if I wasn’t going to grad school! Thank you Debbie and Ryan for a wonderful residential experience during my time here.
