Marina del Rey is a jewel of the California Coast, but the Bay Club Apartments and Marina is definitely no diamond. Lived here two years and finally had it with the mutts. Don't get me wrong, I love dogs, but living in a 24 hour a day kennel soon wears thin. But the dogs aren't the only issue:
1. Parking - Have guests over for dinner and watch their car(s) get towed without warning.
2. First floor decks are large so many lazy dog owners let their pets use the space for a toilet so you and your guests can see all of the dog crap when eating on your deck.
3. My husband was physically threatened by the Dock Master over a parking situation.
4. Bathroom is small - had to use a wood rasp to remove black gunk from aluminum tub rail.
5. Kitchen is terribly small - garbage disposal went out four times in two years and caused floooding in the kitchen.
6. Dogs, dogs, dogs - barking all hours, crapping on the decks, in the parking garage, outside the elevators, in the halls on the carpet, running free in the pool area, swimming in the pool, DO NOT WALK BAREFOOT IN THE GRASS!
7. Jacuzzi never worked correctly.
8. Men's Sauna never worked.
9. Elevators not just slow, old and tired and often broken.
10. Office staff snooty and often rude.
11. Not worth the price - period.
