Resident 2015 - 2017

5/9/2017

The place is old. And expensive. I have been a long term tenant at this property. The good news is that it is conveniently located. And the grounds are lovely. The bad news is The water mains break often, leaving tenants with no water for hours or days. The apartments also do not have enough electrical sockets for the numerous electronic devices we use today. Parking is a nightmare after 8 PM throughout this huge property. The place is huge. There are over 1,100 units in this property. There are few/no sidewalks. If you have kids, that can be a serious safety issue. Many residents walk the dangerous roads inside the property, sharing the road with vehicles. This apartment complex, via Oakwood, also caters to hundreds of college students on an ongoing basis; it's like a dorm! It also functions much like a hotel, allowing people/tourists to stay here for only a few days. There are constant noisy move-ins and move-outs. The clubhouse amenities, such as the gym equipment and computer room, are old and often do not work. The tables and chairs in the clubhouse activity rooms are banged up and badly deteriorated or falling apart, giving these areas a third world look and function. Avalon offers free wifi in the common areas here but it forcibly and suddenly disconnected me every 60 minutes. The property is currently undergoing a massive long term down market renovation in 2017, making it inconvenient and noisy for tenants. The front desk employees are very nice and want to help but often they can do little or nothing for tenant issues, based on all the restrictive corporate rules and poor, or nonfunctioning, services and amenities. This place is not luxury apartment living. I rate it 2-3 stars. For the above reasons, I would not recommend Toluca Hills Apartments by Avalon for upscale apartment living. There are newer, and better places, to rent in L.A.
