Great location and affordable

Located about 2 min from downtown La Mesa. Great landscaping and price is affordable for San Diego. I have a one bedroom and the master is huge with new wood floors. It’s unfortunate that a lot of people complain and never lost positive info. Sad.

La Mesa Gardens

Awful place to live. Water is shut off once a week. They never respond to any emails or voicemails. They charge you for things that they are suppose to take care of. The management is just awful. And the buildings are made of cheap materials. Several apartments had water damage INSIDE after the rain.

8/6/15
La mesa Gardens

Very clean and well maintained garden landscaping. Maintenance is always available and courteous. Parking in lot usually available as well as reserved parking for $30 extra per month. Complex is very quiet and peaceful. Anna the manager is always available and friendly!! Bigger square footage than most for the price. Definately would recommend this complex!!
