      I searched West LA/SaMo for 4 months before finding Chelsea. I was looking for a balance between luxury, affordability and being happy to come home every day. Roze @ Chelsea made it all come together. He was extremely patient and when one unit didn’t work, he offered another coming up in a few weeks. That unit ended up being beyond perfect for my needs and he was there every step of the way even allowing me to push my move in date so It was convenient for me. Roze greets me every day by name and ...
      has an open door policy. This was great to hear and see because my last management company was terrible. Every day feels like i’m coming home to a hotel but with all my stuff in it. Thank you Roze and Chelsea for making my apartment search dreams come true!

      DO NOT TRY TO RENT HERE. I had a viewing scheduled for 4 pm, which they confirmed, and I drove and hour to come to the showing. I got here and nobody answered. They kept telling me to call the main line...which was the same number and only had two options. I tried both, and they just told me to call the main line. A random person let me inside, so I wandered around by myself for a while. Nobody was there, zero security. I called again and they just told me to reschedule. UM, no thanks! Also ...
      building was really not nice and super loud.

      Location is good but no amenities other than an awkward rooftop lounge. Way too pricey for the product.
