I've lived here since June 2008. I'm from L.A. so I understand the busy streets and the sirens. Try finding any place in L.A. without that for the same price. Ok, so first off, moving in, there was a funny smell, I figured new paint smell. As that smell wore off, nasty little critters crawling on walls in between cabinets in the kitchen and in the bathroom! Ugh! Disgusting! At first I couldn't touch them. Now I'm so used to smashing so many when I come home I don't even freak. Nasty cockroaches. They are even in the lobby. They use an orkin man in the management office though.
There's a computer room with no computers. The laundry room has no change machine. Yes, parking is about a block away, but that's not so bad. They do have parking for $100 a month but there's a waiting list. $50 for a block away is not so bad. Let's not be so lazy. The tenants for the most part are really respectful of one another.
If you're trying to get things fixed, you need to put in a work order. Seems reasonable. Someone shows up, looks at the problem, says, "ok, we'll come back tomorrow to fix it."--ok, didn't I put in a work order saying it was broken' Why can't you do it when you come look at it the first place' You tell them, I can only have someone fix it between the hours of 11am and 2pm becuase I need to sleep. They say, "We'll be here at 2pm".... Their reasoning makes no sense.
I love the layout. I really do. It's just not clean and it takes FOREVER to have anything done. Our two gas pilots on the stove have been out for over a month. I put a work order for that and for the roaches. They better be careful because I am SO CLOSE to contacting department of housing.
