Bad Experience
July 22, 2026 - Reseña de Apartments.com
We experienced numerous issues that made living here extremely difficult.
1. Filth in all common areas
Stairwells, hallways, and elevators were consistently dirty. Trash — bottles, food containers, debris — was left for the duration of our stay. In our entire year here, these areas were never properly cleaned. On multiple occasions, we encountered human excrement in the stairwells. It was unacceptable.
2. Serious security failures
The building is located in an area heavily impacted by the ...
homeless, yet basic security is nonexistent. The underground vehicle ramp is open every day, connects to unlocked stairwells that lead straight to apartment units & balcony doors. My wife photographed homeless using this ramp. She was constantly worried about break-ins. One rare night I parked briefly outside, my car window was smashed and items stolen. Management could not provide video footage when requested.
3. Major flooding and widespread mold
During the last rain — over five months ago — the building flooded extensively. Mold Inspection Canary, a reputable local testing company, reported extremely high mold levels throughout the interior spaces. As of today, construction and remediation are still ongoing. Tenants have been living in a construction zone for months. Canary warned us that the industrial fans blowing nonstop across soaked carpeted hallways were likely spreading contaminants and advised us to leave immediately.
4. Mismanagement and unfair lease practices
After losing our home in the Pacific Palisades fire, we rented here out of necessity. We informed management early — roughly 90 days before our lease ended — that we would not be renewing. We later provided more than 30 days’ written notice before the lease expiration.
Only then did the low level manager claim we were required to give 60 days’ notice and that our rent would be increasing, despite the building being a construction zone and nothing like the property we originally signed for.
I emailed upper management at their large corporate office. Their response was essentially: too bad.
We paid rent on time, left the unit as we found it and vacated within the lease term. Despite this, management is now withholding our security deposit and repeatedly threatening to send a “balance” to collections.
Bottom line:
This building is dirty, unsafe, poorly managed, and currently resembles a construction site more than a livable residence. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend it to anyone.
