Great ambiance. Good view. Great amenities. Clean and good as new.

It is in a great location - close to the freeway, downtown San Jose, Santana Row and Valley Fair, and a respectable commute to work. The office staff (Olga, Anna, and Aurora) is professional, helpful, and responsive to requests and questions. Maintenance service is prompt. Joe always responds quickly and gets the work done correctly without needing to come back.
The building interior is well maintained, and I have had no issues with appliances. There have been improvements in access, especially through the garage with more secure garage doors.

From the day I visited the reception, I have only been impressed with both the place and the people. The staff showed me around with great patience and continued helping me out promptly with their welcoming gesture as aI settled in. The Standard is a perfect place to call home, and the staff make it all feel like a family.
Addition: Joe is one of the crew at The Standard, and he is amazing. Always greets me with a smile and would not leave my place unless the problem is fixed (he handled plumbing issue for me once). If you see, give him a hug :)
I highly recommend The Standard Apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and great place for access to everything in Silicon Valley. We have lived here for 3 years, and the first year under the Alliance management was not a pleasant experience. After the management change, things have been much better, especially thanks to Joe the maintenance supervisor who has always gone above and beyond to solve all the problems we experienced, and even the issues the last management group left behind. The rest of the also staff goes above and beyond to ensure that their residents are happy and well taken care of. Thank you for a wonderful living experience!
The service and care from the Standard Staff are incredible! Anytime I need work orders completed, Joe is the first to respond within the same day and is quick to take care of the issues. He’s extremely responsive and very reliable! The office staff are very courteous and communicate efficiently on matters that important and even time sensitive. Olga, Ana, and Aurora are really kind and make sure everything is taken care of as well. Overall, the standard has taken really good care of the property as well. They recently changed the garage gates which are more secured and easier to enter/leave from. The mailboxes have been updated so every package is secured using your mailroom code and includes plenty of boxes so no ones packages can ever be stolen or lost. I would highly recommend considering your stay at The Standard. They’ll always take good care of you!

We've enjoyed our time at The Standard.
Every single time we've had an issue we have been heard and the issue was taken care of in a timely manner and updates were provided.
The location is ideal (lots to do nearby, grocery shopping is easy with all the options, freeways are close, vta is in 'the backyard', the community is great for the most part we've made such good friends, and the staff is awesome for the most part-coulf use some customer service educate for one staff).
For us it's all about the little things and this complex has met our expectations.
It's smaller compared to other complexes so it makes it easier to get things done and you deal with less folx. It's a plus that it doesn't have a lot of college kids and small children because it's not as loud or as crowded as the amenities.

I honestly don't know why The Standard has a low rating. I guess people are more likely to write 1-star reviews because they're upset, whereas everyone else who like the apartment doesn't take the time to do so. Well, I'm taking the time now because I'm bored at work.
I'll start off by saying that I highly recommend this apartment. My fiancé and I toured 10 apartments before deciding on this one.
My true rating is 4.5 stars, which I explain below.
The first pro to this place is the location. It's quiet, not too crowded, but also not walking distance to anything but a brewery, Safeway, and McDonalds.
-Second, it's a super cool place to live at! The study lounge is cool, the fitness center is cool, the pool is cool (excuse my limited vocabulary).
-The apartments have ceiling to floor windows. And our windows are south facing, so we get the very best lighting.
-The actual apartments are modern. I feel wealthy living there even though I'm not.
-We've made several service calls for issues we've had, and the handyman always arrives within 24 hours. They even replaced our dishwasher when ours went out (albeit they did so after our third request). My fiancé already knows our handyman on a first name basis (but I doubt he knows ours).
-The complex has NO BUGS. No roaches, spiders, bedbugs, you name it.
-Our packages are always safe. Even when the delivery person doesn't follow instructions and leaves our package outside of the locker, no one takes them.
-Also, the lobby staff people are super helpful, we also know all their names (esp. Aurora - shout out to her).
I'm sure there's more good things to note, but I've forgotten at the moment.
I remember my fiancé and I were hesitant to move here because we read some reviews about bike theft and car theft, but we spoke to a rep here about our concerns and she said that those incidents are not recent, which is true. They implemented a new security system since then that uses an app rather than a fob.
Which takes me to the first con of this place: the new security system! Yes, it works in the sense that the place is more secure, but the garage doesn't have any Wi-Fi or cell reception, so the app doesn't load for me down there! It's frustrating and it's my only true complaint. The rep told me I should open the app BEFORE I enter the garage, but honestly, I always forget to do that. As a workaround, I've been taking the stairs up to the ground level and then catching the elevator from there, but that sucks when I'm carrying a bunch of shopping bags.
The other con is that sometimes the pool gets loud? But I don't really care about that. The windows are soundproof, so I just shut them.
Anyway, I think that's all I have to say about this place. We may or may not extend our lease here. It depends on our financial situation.

I like this apartment community a lot. It’s always clean and quiet. Also they have various amenities, such as a gym and a businesses lounge Particularly I like the jacuzzi they have.
