Considering the area and the rent ($1,500 ), the quality of the management and maintenance is well below what is should be. It is not as clean as should be (or as it used to be kept). There is a red stain that has been on a wall for weeks. The cleaning crew has not bothered to get a wet sponge to wipe it off. Tile floors in the common areas were once glazed, pretty and shiny. Glaze was removed from some of the floors and now they always look filthy and grungy. It is suppose to be a secured building but tenants are allowed to leave doors leading to the outside propped open. Where is the security in that' Certain rules, like the outside doors being kept tightly closed (other than moving in or out) are not enforced. Fire doors that are suppose to kept closed as sometimes propped open with a rug which poses a trip and fall hazard. There was a small weight room and nice size recreation room. The rec room has been turned into a fitness center. Great but now theres no place to have a party other than in the apartments which are not very big for large gatherings. Management turn over is ridiculous. There were about 5 managers in 2003. One manager stayed only a month. I never saw him. There used to be scheduled spraying for pests. Because of different managers not keeping the routine, no spraying has taking place in about 4 years and the pests came and no one did anything about it. Former tenant left because quality of this place has gone down. Maintenance for normal wear and tear on the building is not as good as it should be. The building still looks decent but it is a long way from the "luxury" apartment it once was when I moved in. The location is great. Near museums, across the street from Park La Brea, grocery store within walking distance. If the management had kept up the quality this place had when I moved in, I would not be writing this complaint. I would be writing a compliment and encouraging people to move in. I am leaving this place. Maybe it will improve after I leave!
