      Neighborhood

      The cities of Livermore, Dublin and Pleasanton form a loosely shaped triangle within California's Tri-Valley region, a cluster of three small valleys about 33 miles east of San Francisco and 35 miles northeast of San Jose. Known for its Mediterranean climate, rolling hills and historic vineyards, this once bucolic region now boasts three separate downtown areas, a bustling business community and some of the best wineries in the state.

      At the eastern end of the region lies the city of Livermore. Once known as Livermores, Livermore Ranch and Nottingham, the city sits at the center of Livermore Valley, a historic region dotted with more than 5,000 acres of mostly family-owned vineyards. A pastoral neighborhood known for its charming yet functional hilltop windmills, Livermore hosts the internationally recognized and sometimes controversial center of scientific research, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories.

      Vando with maintenance Vando was superb with the repairs he did for us. He took his time to make sure everything was done properly and with care. He fixed our laundry doors and replaced a broken doorknob, and made sure everything worked perfectly before leaving. He was respectful, professional, and clearly takes pride in his work. We really appreciated the effort he put in—it made a big difference.

      Great place. The direct office management, Yezeda, is outstanding. She is caring and worked well with us. Senior management was difficult. When there was mold in our apartment they did move us to another one. Then offered $1000 for our hardship. Small amount but they never followed through. Expensive tent.

      Property Manager at Kensington Apartments, Responded To This Review

      Thank you for sharing your experience, Mark! We’re glad to hear Yesenia was caring and supportive during your time in the community. We understand your frustration with the follow-through on the offered compensation and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is important, and we’ll be reaching out to you shortly to hear more about this situation!

      Thermostat still is not operating correctly. Still notoperating well. No interaction with HVAC unit.

      Non-responsive management Getting help is like pulling teeth, for example we have been asking to get the gutter fixed since we moved in. Inappropriately charged fees that they say they will refund but never do, fees related to renter insurance. Parking situation became a nightmare after moving in due to the construction workers occupying a huge section of the lot, resulting in scratches on my car due to large cars trying to squeeze into a limited number, compact spots. Management randomly accused my boyfriend of domestic violence against me when he went to the leasing office for an unrelated matter. Infuriating and false accusations. Consternation is highly disruptive for those working from home. Paint job they did was unbelievably sloppy looks awful, making throwing money away for rent that much more painful.

      Property Manager at Kensington Apartments, Responded To This Review

      We're extremely sorry to hear about your negative experience. We understand the frustration regarding the issues you have been facing, including parking disturbance due to construction and unresolved maintenance requests. It was never our intention to inappropriately charge fees or falsely accuse anyone, your concern will be thoroughly investigated by our team. Lastly, we assure you that we are constantly working on improving the property appearance and services for enhanced resident satisfaction. Your feedback is valuable and helps us focus on areas of improvement.

      Poor Management

      Under new management that isn't honest when doing business. Pro tip to the new management, don't advertise a unit for a certain amount and then say all you have is a unit double the price. Also, showing up late to your own office and not showing up at all is extremely unprofessional and LAZY.

      Property Manager at Kensington Apartments, Responded To This Review

      We're sorry for the experience you had, and we take your feedback seriously. We apologize for the miscommunication and inconvenience caused. We're committed to improving punctuality and professionalism based on your valuable input.

      Loved it! You found your home.

      I lived here for a year and absolutely loved it. Very beautiful scenery, clean, spacious and the management team are sooo sweet and professional to work with. They are very responsive, engaging and helpful. Anything you bring to their attention they address it immediately. I highly recommend living here, it makes you feel like home and you’re in a safe environment. Never had any problems here. Neighbors are very nice too and dog friendly. A running trail and park are walking distance. Safeway is across the street. There’s always parking available. Grass, gym, parking lots are always maintained. Kelly and Courtinie are just so sweet and good to work with. They make everything so easy! No need to look anywhere, this place is home! ... we had to leave due to personal issues, but nothing related to the Kensington. Sad to leave. Highly recommend!

      Property Manager at Kensington Apartments, Responded To This Review

      We are absolutely delighted to receive such high praise from you! It is a pleasure to know that Kelly and Courtinie helped make you feel at home here. We will miss having you in the community and wish you all the best in your next home.
