Boulevard Apartments, Pleasant Hill

8/12/13

I don't live here but I've had two (or three?) friends that have. So my review is from a guest's perspective. Most important to ask: What the #$&! is up with the lack of guest parking?! There's practically none, so a few times we've parked in the prospective tenant spots which are oddly very short. The car sticks out into the main drive, and while it's not impossible for other cars to swerve to go around it, it's a really weird way to park.

The units are nice. A friend who lived in the back of the complex had a second floor loft. The front door opened into a good sized living room and the kitchen was pretty standard, but on the small side. It was in good condition though. Another friend on the first floor has a nice set up as well. It's not an inexpensive place to live, but it's very pretty around the complex.  And the pool isn't freezing cold! Not a very deep pool though and not a large area around it - and NO hot tub - but it's a nice place to sit poolside.

When entering the complex, there is a locked gate so if you don't have a clicker you need to dial whomever youre visiting for access. If youre a prospective tenant there is parking outside of the gate so that you can access the main office. When leaving, you can't turn left out of the complex (to go toward Monument); only right onto Contra Costa (toward Treat, or 680 South entrance). Pretty inconvenient sometimes.
