“I have no complaints whatsoever. Management made it super easy to fill out there application at there office and while my new apartment is great, when I needed assistance maintenance with things I needed clarification on like the outlets which required the light switch and my need to understand simple operations of the wash machine, everything has been a positive experience here, including Morgan Hill itself - wonderful vibe and friendly residents here at Mont Vista and the city in general. I highly recommend Monte Vista Apartments. This was where I had hoped to move to from San Jose and it was Monte Vista that contacted me to let me know of their 2 bdrm apartment availability.”
