The Hesby Apartamentos

Luxury prices for subpar living. Service requests take weeks. Staff uses handicap parking as employee parking. Thin walls. Broken and missing gym equipment. No security. Gates don't lock. Staff could care less about any complaints.

I recently left this property-This complex allows their tenants to AirBnb their units; If you don't mind transients coming and going all days of the night, then you won't mind The Hesby. The garage has no cameras other than to monitor the entrances and exits. Security patrol, while prompt, never does anything to fix the problem. The management makes it clear that they don't care enough to resolve the problems as I wrote multiple emails. The dog owners let their animals pee in the... elevator-which is usually broken anyhow. The trash chute will back up almost weekly so you can't use it. And don't expect much sleep on the weekends-this place is always loud. I moved four times when I was in L.A., and this by far is the worst! Lee mas

This complex condones AirBnb among it’s tenants, so beware of people trying to sneak in behind you at the gate or harassing you to use your key fob for the elevator to let them up. The cleaning staff tries their best, but the residents-or whomever-are slobs. On the Morrison street side, the front step is usually covered in dog pee-and I think it’s from the balcony directly overhanging the stoop. Don’t expect the staff to be very helpful; although most of them are very nice, when I asked about... other residents cleaning off the trash on their balconies, I got a canned email response from Christina who said they were doing the “best they could.” On most weekends, the pool and common area is taken over and they usually aren’t tenants. Good luck getting a grill. The fire alarm goes off an awful lot here-especially around 3 a.m. For what you pay here, you could probably get a much nicer albeit smaller complex that doesn’t have these problems. This by far the worst Equity property I’ve lived in and I’ve been in three since being in L.A. As I write this, the Morrison street elevator is down for the third time in less than 60 days and won’t be fixed until Monday. On the good side, the security staff is always quick to respond to barking dog complaints. Most of the amenities-when you’re able to use them-are kept clean. The pool area just got a makeover. All in all, not a good place to live for what you’re gonna have to pay. Lee mas

Horrible apartment complex. Apathetic staff. The neighbors are loud and always in your business. The apartment is unsafe and there have been several deadly shootings in the last year. Not to mention the class action lawsuit Equity Residential is in for all the extra fees they like to add. The amenities are crowded or closed for maintenance frequently. Random fire alarms waking you up monthly. I can only imagine the stories of residents who have lived here longer than I did. All these positive... reviews and I can only assume they are written by people employed by Equity Residential.

Go anywhere else. Lee mas

The Hesby is the perfect apartment complex for young adults in the mid-20's to early 30's. It's like living in a trendy hotel!
