Wilshire La Brea

fire alarm just forcing us to move out after 4 month, it is screaming sooo often, even through the nights. i understand the importance but there could be penalties for those residents who smoke or whatever ..

Could not get my keys on move-in day. Unable to reach management for weeks! Every time I try to go to the leasing office they have it locked and just peek through the windows. Trying to move out now and cannot return keys to management because they wont respond to me. Entire building hallways smell like rotten trash and dog pee. Look elsewhere and at a different management company!

I've lived here for almost a year now and I'm extremely disappointed with almost everything about this building.

1. You would think that the location is great but theres always a construction going on in Wilshire Blvd, so there's ALWAYS traffic.

2. You're family and friends will never find parking unless they pay $20 in the guest parking (and the building won't validate there ticket)

3. They give you a card to open the garage door that sometimes works for one entrance, and other times on the… other entrance. Most of the times I have to get out of the car and play around with the card for 15 minutes so the sensor could find the card.

4. The main car entrance was broken for over 2 months. (And a construction had the street closed for over 6 months)

5. Every time something stops working in my apartment (sink, toilet, shower, A/C) which happened almost once a month, it takes the office around 4-5 days to process your request and they don't exactly have the best communication with the service staff. Most of the time I would need to find a service staff member and ask them because they never hear anything from the office.

6. Most delivery guys drop off your packages in front of your door, that eventually get stolen.

7. Most of their parking spots are reserved for corporate companies that are never in the building and they end up giving you a spot very far away from the elevators. Also the way they designed the whole parking lot is awful, a lot of unnecessary fences dividing spaces that force you to talk around them to get to your elevator.

8. Some elevators don't even go to your floor.

9. Once a month, one of the elevators stops working for like a week of two.

10. And to top it all off, they keep increasing there prices.

It's a pretty building and all, but the service is extremely bad. I can't wait for my lease to finish so I can move out. Read More

Located on Miracle Mile - an area of Los Angeles sandwiched between Korea Town and Beverly Hills - the Wilshire La Brea complex is right next to an upcoming Metro station, a bus station, and has parking for it's residents while also being a quick jump down to I-10. It's a great place for those just moving to the Los Angeles area. However, the major fault is in the pricing of the units, which begin in the low 2000s. NOT for those on a budget. However, the perks tend to outweigh the negatives, as… the units are all gorgeously built modern apartments with amazing views of the surrounding areas (or the Wilshire La Brea's beautiful courtyards), a very friendly and helpful staff, stainless steel appliances, and enough variety in unit sizes to fit a single renter or a small family.
