Lived here throughout my four years of dental school. Nice, spacious apartments for a good price. Perfect distance from the med/dental school or Presby and easy transit. Christina and everyone at the office are always friendly and helpful. Any problems you have in the apartment are usually fixed quickly and professionally. Neighbors are all great. Would recommend if you are looking for a large apartment in Oakland.

I lived in the Royal York for a year and a half and had nothing but good experiences. The door guys are uniformly awesome; idiosyncratic maybe, but all of them have been good friends during my time there. They are quick to attend to repairs. The apartment has been comfortable and in good shape. Okay, the heat is a little hard to control and made it hard for my girlfriend to sleep in the winter. The laundry is a big hike down to the first floor, down the hall, down some stairs. The shower drain clogs every few months. BUT the roof has one of the best views in the city. The lobby is attractive and well-kept. My apt at least is spacious and welcoming. Patty, the current manager, has always been great with any problem I've had.
