The effort to encourage Placer County residents to embrace homelessness are visible from the transformation of the Sun Rose Apartments, previously a Hampton Inn & Suites, through the Homekey initiative headed by AMI Housing. This $29.5 million mission will result in 83 extremely low-income units and support for individuals in hard to access services thanks to its onsite house manager and social servies offerings. The conversion is expected by December 2022 when Sun Rose removes renovations such as kitchenettes from its checklist.
Sun Rose Apartments Undergo Transformation
Sun Rose Apartments, a former Hampton Inn & Suites Roseville located on Sunrise Avenue and Douglas Boulevard, is undergoing a transformation thanks to the ambitious effort of Placer County and AMI Housing. The $29.5 million project was funded by the State of California’s Homekey program, granting the organization $23.5 million for the conversion to permanent supportive housing. With AMI Housing acting as the developer and manager of Sun Rose Apartments, this impressive initiative will be complete in 2022.
Sun Rose Apartments: Permanent Supportive Housing
Sun Rose Apartments will provide permanent supportive housing for those in need by combining the City’s support of $1.5 million with AMI Housing’s investment of $6 million in rehabilitating the structure. Renovations such as kitchenettes are set to be completed by December 2023, and residents will be required to make rent payments. The onsite house manager and social services offered at Sun Rose Apartments will aid in helping people stay housed.
AMI Housing is proud to announce the conversion of the Hampton Inn & Suites Roseville into 83 units that will be leased to extremely low-income and exiting homeless residents. The City’s support of $1.5 million, combined with AMI Housing’s investment of $6 million in rehabilitating the Sun Rose Apartments, will provide permanent supportive housing for individuals in need. Sun Rose Apartments will require rent payments from its residents, and will feature an onsite house manager and social services to aid in keeping people housed. Minor renovations such as kitchenettes are set to be completed by December 2023.
Clients will be referred through Placer County’s homeless resource helpline, 2-1-1. AMI Housing is committed to providing personalized case management that will keep residents engaged in employment or vocational activities, mental health, medical and other services as needed.

Reducing Homelessness in Roseville and Placer County
Sun Rose Apartments is proud to be a part of the effort to reduce homelessness in Roseville and Placer County. The 2023 Point-in-Time homeless census released by the Homeless Resource Council of the Sierras (HRCS) showed that the estimated number of people experiencing homelessness decreased compared to the previous year. This is a testament to the hard work put in by those on the ground working to ensure individuals can access permanent housing and the resources needed for long term success. Studies have also shown that this type of program can yield an annual cost savings of approximately $31,545 per person, and further reduces impacts on emergency rooms, public safety response, and emergency shelters.
