Resident 2013 - 2014

6/6/2014

** I'm updating my overall rating on the review b/c I feel like I overrated the apartments... I moved out over a month ago and I have still had nothing but issues with the mgmt staff since I moved. Plus now that I no longer live there, I can't get anyone to answer the phone or return my calls. It's just such bad service and completely unprofessional!** There are definitely some pros and cons to living here. My husband and I only lived here for 1 year and we probably would not have renewed our lease if we our jobs hadn't relocated us. Pros: * the location is fantastic. We loved all of the restaurants and shops in Montrose * there have been a lot of upgrades to the apartments (granite counters, crown molding etc) * the new owners have made a lot of positive changes to the grounds (heating for the pool, new landscape etc) but not enough to make dealing with them any better. * there is a huge park just down the street that was great Cons: * no air conditioning!!! Do not be deceived, the 2nd and 3rd floors are uncomfortably hot in the summer. We had 2 window units and our bill was $300 for 2 months and we were still hot for those 2 months. We couldnt even use our 2nd bedroom b/c it felt like an oven. * The cops are seriously at the complex all the time. Our neighbors had domestic disputes all of the time. (like we could hear yelling through the walls) * People do not follow the no smoking policy (and it is not enforced)... one lady smokes on her balcony and in the hallways. *kids run up and down the halls all of the time. It is an old building so it sounds like elephants in the hallways. A few even ride their scooters up and down the halls. * while the office staff was nice, we had very little follow up - this is with the new owners (pinnacle). Took 3 months just to get some documents updated and at our move out there was still an unfixed issue with the bathroom. * parking is a huge issue too in places like this. But to be fair, it is;s like that everywhere in LA.
