Renters Reviews and Ratings
Poor management
August 4, 2023Do yourself a favor and dont bother to move in here! Management is totally ignorant of ongoing issues with apartment such as packages being stolen all the time, mold in the bathroom and bedroom, false fire alarms during midnight!Property Manager Responded
August 7, 2023We appreciate your feedback. We are diligently working to resolve the package issues, including adding a new more secure package room. We would love to have a chance to connect directly with you and get to know more about your specific issues. -Essex Resident Relations Team
Review from Apartments.com
Looks Good Until You Move In
May 4, 2022This place has a lot of problems. We just moved out and we’re happy to do so. The management company is horrible and inattentive. Constant property theft including mail room, package room and garage are all an issue. Fire alarms that ring for no reason in the middle of the night with late night evacuations. Poor security patrols. The place smells like a medical marijuana haven. Exterior security elements are broken. Dirty trash rooms and broken equipment in the gym. Pool and common area ...furniture ripped, mismatched or falling apart. Dog pee in hallways with stained carpets. Guests constantly access the garage by following in resident vehicles entering the garage and park in resident stalls. Most residents are unhappy, please check for yourself by checking out the Brio’s resident Facebook site for your own glimpse into this little house of horrors.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
The noise level... (Verified Renter)
December 9, 2019The noise level is higher than I expected; the mess with the trash and recycling is not what I expected. What makes it all tolerable is the incredible staff here.Review from Apartments.com
Complete Joke
July 19, 2019Lipstick on a pig. If negative stars were an option, this place sure earned them. Don't let The Brio apartments fool you with their "amenities". Constantly missing and or broken pool table sticks, broken table top soccer for 1.5 years, garage gate ALWAYS goes down leaving the whole complex unsecured, fire alarms randomly going off for hours, bandaids left by the pool, cockroaches running by your feet at night and if your lucky the occasional rat will scurry by as well. This place is ...unfortunately COMPLETELY mismanaged. There are a ton of options in Walnut Creek, don't make the same mistake we did! Save your time and money!Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
After having visited... (Verified Renter)
June 26, 2019After having visited 50 odd apartment complexes all over the Bay area, I finally chose Brio for it exceeds every requirement one may have - walking distance to downtown, best-in-class amenities, large sized units, best appliances/fixtures, and to top it all - the best management team hands down.Review from Apartments.com

Things I would... (Verified Renter)
March 19, 2019Things I would not recommend: 1. almost the whole part of this living area smells bad. Most likely from dog pee. 2. fire alarm have turned on three or four times in half year, which is frequent. One time it was turned on at 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. It is horrible to wake up by this annoying and super loud alarm.Review from Apartments.com
