I've been living at Talaria Burbank for four years now (unfortunately). Talaria is a poorly run apartment building and the worst I've ever experienced. This building is anything but luxury. The elevators break down almost every month. Mail and packages have been stolen so many times I can't trust to receive mail or packages here. Last year, one of the elevators wasn't working for over six months because of rain damage and they were waiting for the insurance to pay out the money because they were too cheap to fix it. Security is non-existent in this building. Garage doors are left open almost all day long with little to no security. The main entrance garage door has been broken for over six months with empty promises to fix it. Thieves have easily broken into cars and I've seen wheels stolen off of new high end cars several times (see the pictures I've included). You are on your own when you live here. Every man and woman for himself. Emergency situations have been ignored by the staff and they have refused to call the Police stating "They never gunna come anyways so we don't bother anymore. So why don't you call them". I can't tell you how many times I've stepped on dog pee in the elevator. There is dog poop all over the sidewalks surrounding the building and they don't clean it for weeks. You'd figure they would have money to pressure wash the sidewalks but they are too cheap to spend the money. When I contact the front desk they blow me off. The cleaning crew don't speak a word of English. The building rents out units to questionable characters who smoke weed all day and the weed smell is always in the elevators and the garage. Pricing and availability is questionable because I've seen my unit rent for 30% more than what I'm paying. They adjust their prices constantly and I don't believe they are being honest on availability of units so they can charge more. During the last four years, I've been dealing on and off with rolling vibrations throughout my unit and it takes them months and dozens of emails to investigate and problems are never resolved. Furthermore, a tenant deleted himself last year by taking a jump off the fifth floor but you didn't hear about that either. Management does not disclose theft or other significant issues that tenants should be aware of. We are left in the dark and have to fend for ourselves. Many problems are ignored and swept under the rug. Also, instead of fixing the elevators and garage doors in a timely manner, they wait for an insurance payout which takes months. I've lived in many apartment buildings over the years, this is one of the worst managed buildings I've seen and experienced. This companies loyalty is to Whole Foods. They can care less about the people living in the apartments. read more
