I was able to walk around freely in the lobby area and in the mail room. It seemed like a red flag that the packages are not locked up and that anyone could walk into the mail room. I had called multiple times but no answer. The time I did get someone on the phone it was someone remote who couldn't help me at all. I had emailed as well but I just got back automated messages. They finally did get back to me 30 minutes after the initial time of the tour saying that their leasing agent had something come up, which is totally valid but I wish another leasing agent had called much earlier once they knew their coworker was attending to another matter. It was just a really bad experience over all.

Please be careful in choosing this apartment!! I am a resident in Avalon Monrovia for half a…read moreyear.The apartment might look clean and fancy at the first sight but there are sever problems that makes me wanna move out. First, utilities are old and easily fell apart.For a six month staying period, the curtain fell off,the light button fell off,the carpet cracked , some outlets are not working. I used to live in other apartments but never have I ever encountered these issues during my stay. Secondly,there are frequent loss of delivery at the lobby entrance.if you ever order a delivery from Ubereats or DoorDash, your delivery might be gone when they leave at lobby entrance as delivery man cannot enter lobby. I have lost the deliveries three times and asked the leasing office for investigation but never heard back from them so it leaves me nothing but assuming this community is not safe.Theft exist. Third, trash has to be sorted or you could be fined with 100 dollars.That means,if you ever receive packages like from amazon , the paper box has to be folded and taken all the way to the first floor even when you live on the third floor with extremely long hallway. Besides,if you have a boyfriend/girlfriend who visit you often, they would ask to do background check applications. it's a nonsmoking community so you are not allowed to have cigarettes even in your trash (somehow they search in your trash ).In addition, my rent is 3050 dollars per month but I paid around 3400 dollars per month as there's additional costs every month like fine, new stickers and once they just charge me 110 dollars out of mistake. If you don't double check the bill,you might result in financial loss. In summary , They put efforts in having strict rules against their residents instead of working for them . I am very disappointed at Avalon Monrovia and this is the least apartment I would recommend.

live at Alexan Marmont over a year, and the ongoing parking situation has become extremely…read morefrustrating. This is now the fourth time someone has parked in my assigned space. Residents pay for designated parking, yet there appears to be little to no effective enforcement in the parking structure. On top of that, people regularly park wherever they want in the guest parking area with no apparent consequences. Having to deal with this repeatedly is inconvenient, stressful, and unacceptable. A secured parking structure should provide basic organization and peace of mind, but instead it feels unmanaged and poorly enforced. Management needs to take this issue seriously and implement consistent enforcement. Until meaningful action is taken, this will remain a significant concern for residents who rely on their assigned parking.

I use one credit card only for Alexan Marmont, no other purchases. I got a fraudulent charge on it…read moreso only one culprit. when I was forced to sign up for the parking garage spot on the female leasing agent's (personal??) laptop, I saw her save onto her laptop my credit card and other personal information that I had to provide when I signed up for Parking Boss. EVERYONE SHOULD BE CAREFUL if you signed up for the parking garage because they probably also saved your information! Check your banking statements for fraudulent activity. Driving through the parking garage is unsafe! Tight spaces for two cars trying to pass each other on the opposite way. People speeding throughout almost causing accidents. That's why they had to put up the speed signs. The mirrors they have in the garage don't help at all. The fire alarms go off all the time. Mine has gone off several times as well and I have PTSD from all of the sounds especially after the Eaton Fire. I called maintenance for help and they said the detectors are sensitive and told me to remove the smoke detector battery. Hmmmmmmmm, really? Also the whole building alarms have gone off many times. Why can't they find the culprit each time? What's the point of their cameras? Marijuana smell everywhere. don't wanna say, but i think one of them is the older woman who lives above the front entrance of the parking garage cuz she'll yell out of her window sounding all friendly high.

We lived here for 3 years -- it was our first apartment in California…read more The first year was quite good, but over time, things started to get worse. There are many homeless people around the area, which often makes it feel unsafe. The maintenance team, however, was always great -- they were professional, kind, and quick to respond. That was honestly the best part of living here. Unfortunately, the rent keeps increasing every year, but nothing really improves. Management is rarely available -- we never saw a manager in person, and most of the issues we reported were not resolved. There is also no security on the property anymore. During our first year, there was a security guard, but after he left, they never replaced him. Many times, we saw homeless people entering the building, using the bathrooms near the pool, and even using the pool itself. Packages were also stolen several times, which made us feel very unsafe. Another challenge was the nearby theater. They were doing ongoing construction and decoration work right next to the building, and tenants on that side had to deal with loud noise almost every day. When we contacted the Essex office to ask for help, they said it was not under their control. The location might seem convenient, but it's right by the freeway, so it's always noisy. Sadly, it's also not the safest or most comfortable place to live. Overall, we would not recommend this property. There are many better and safer options nearby where you can truly enjoy your home and peace of mind.

We have lived in the building 5 years…read more Hands down the best part is the maintenance crew. I've always lived in apartments and never had a team as responsive as Robert and his team. (Also the cleaning lady, Esther, she keeps this place immaculate and is always friendly.) They are truly the face of this community. The location is great and despite a large complex there is a good sense of community for those that use the pool or have dogs. The building is next to the metro for great public transport on the Gold line. (We're next to the metro and we live in LA, homelessness is to be expected. This is a system failure not a building problem.) Room for improvement: Mail: could have a better system for this/larger locker area to prevent theft Parking: need to have the resident spaces repainted and indicated as such/improved signage due to difficulty with spots as a result of the theater next door. Security: they claim to have night security but no one was rehired for over a year Management: constantly changing staff, was located offsite for at least a year, but just moved back... Not a fan of paying for parking with the cost of rent and clearly the spaces available.

WARNING: AVA Pasadena is a Scam, I would give negative 5stars if I could…read more We had a nightmare dealing after moving out. AVALON slapped us with a ridiculous $946 bill with a FAKE "pet odor" and wall damage that never existed. The apartment was in perfect condition. When we asked for PROOF--photos, invoices, ANYTHING--they said they DO NOT NEED ANY PROOF TO CHARGE US, after we repeatedly asking, they said they will provide WITH COURTESY and would take 7-10 business days to provide it. But at the same time, they threatened us with a tight deadline to pay within 10 days or FACE COLLECTIONS. They tried to force us to pay without giving us any evidence and pressured us with an unfair timeline. After doing some research, I found out this company has a BAD REPUTATION for OVERCHARGING UNREASONABLE MOVE-OUT FEES and SENDING ACCOUNTS TO COLLECTIONS without proper communication. It's no surprise they pulled the same tactics on us. They clearly don't care about honest tenants--they just want to steal money by inventing damages and rushing you into paying. We're fighting back and won't let these greedy, dishonest people get away with it. If you value your money and sanity, STAY FAR AWAY from AVALON.

The amenities are great, and they're always keeping things updated. The property is super clean, well maintained, and very quiet, with a no smoking environment.

Maintenance is amazing. Sal and his team are always quick to respond and get things fixed without a hassle. The front office team is also fantastic. Macelda before and now Alyssa have both been great communicators. They always keep residents in the loop with texts and emails, especially for things like scheduled water shut offs. They also make it fun to live here with little community events, even for the pets! We loved the Halloween and Christmas door contests, Easter egg hunt, and the treats for the dogs. Highly recommend living here!

Trust me we started our search in May and after who knows how many disappointing tours we landed at Le Med by chance. Let's start with the property itself. The grounds are nicely kept and maintained. The common areas are always kept clean. You have assigned parking spaces! and they are serious about it too. Washer and Dryer in unit. The property is gated and located in a nice quiet area. Easy access to the 210 and 605 freeways and just a 20 minute drive to the Azusa Canyon and all its wilderness glory. Did I mention it's 3 minutes away from COSTO! Alyssa and Kevin at the leasing office are amazing. From our very first tour, Alyssa was kind, helpful, and patient as we explored different units. Although the apartment we wanted was initially tied up, she kept us updated and called as soon as one became available. After a few near misses, we finally got the call that the original unit we loved was available for us to apply--and I've never applied so fast in my life! Alyssa made the whole process from application to move-in seamless. Kevin was also wonderful, taking the time to help measure every wall so we could be sure our furniture would fit. Together, they made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Now let me tell you about the maintenance team. While it is a two person team it is mighty! Sal and Horacio go above and beyond in keeping the grounds looking exactly like they do in the pictures here on yelp and on their website. Both are super friendly and know every tenant by name! Sal is always willing to help and once a ticket is submitted they are on it. The team here is truly outstanding! Anytime we have a question, they're always ready to help. Unlike many places where the leasing staff disappears after you sign, this small but mighty team stays with you every step of the way--and even beyond. Like I said look no further and come live here. If an apartment pops up on their website that you like don't hesitate to apply as soon as your tour is over because I can guarantee it won't last long.
