These apartments are a bloody rip off big time. They squeezed the parking lot space with Ace Miners hardware just to put in these teeny little bitsy expensive apartments in an area that should be for retail not for living. It's a joke as the progressive liberal SLO city council voted for this crap, that hurts retail and business. It should be torn down and build a bigger parking lot for Ace Miners so customers can shop at the store where the parking lot is smaller now. It's ridiculous what the city did by approving these garbage apartments
