I enjoyed living at Sixth&G Apartments for the past two years because it is ideally located in the Gaslamp Quarter and is walking distance to all your favorite places. The outside entrance, inside lobby, gym, entertainment lounge, hallways, and underground parking are kept pristine with daily cleanings. Management/maintenance are incredible and quickly respond to requests. The high ceilings and thick concrete walls provide peace and quiet while allowing you to live in a very festive place.

The community is clean, located near most everything downtown. Be aware that noise can be an issue and there are quite a bit of fees on top of rent, to include a trash service that is absolutely not needed. There are trash shoots on every floor and they charge $10 for someone to grab your trash from your door. I would not mind if they charged against our will. Please reconsider this 6th and G!
