I loved my time living here for 4 years. I recently inquired as to the rates, but they have no vacancies, and the rent has shot up about 50%. What do u expect after 10 has it been 10 years. Oh wait no just 8.5. Well then moving on. Great out of they way place, Oakland/San Leandros best kept secret for a while. Management is lax in a good way, will address any needs immediately. Keep in mind this was a while ago. The lofts on the 2nd and 3rd floors are amazing. Huge bay windows, concrete floors, 18 foot ceilings, quiet for the most part. Security guards, coded entry, (2) freight elevators, artsy neighbors. You know what forget all that. It sucks. Don't move here. I'm getting my old space back. (Evil laugh!!!!) J/K... about the place. Iys great but don't even think about trying to move in b4 me....

Best to go during daylight hours for safety reasons,the lines are always long & some items seem very very overpriced especially coffee creamer.Some of the staff that works at night could use a little more customer service training specifically one of the cashiers which i will not single out because i dont know her story but not only is she rude but she has a chip on her shoulder that has to be noticed by management because it is noticed by ALL the customers.As an ex public servant of retail & current business owner i would overhaul this place.There is a reason that if u drive less than 5 minutes away to foothill square the grocery store there is always full with customers....good customer service with great pricing...
