Azul Baldwin Park Apartments

I’ve lived here almost a year. It’s beautiful inside but there are a lot of troublesome things.
1. It as poorly constructed and you can hear EVERY SINGLE STEP the unit above you takes. EVERY STEP. The guy below me came up to complain constantly and asked me to walk on my tip toes. I wasn’t having a party nor did I have a bunch of people over, it was just me, walking, making dinner.
2. Inside the unit is poorly constructed. We were the first ones to occupy our unit and they told us to go around and report anything that was defective. There were scratches on the appliances, parts of the wood flooring with chips in it, walls with dark spots. Again, we were the FIRST ones to live in that unit.
3. There’s an air filter that is in each unit that HAS TO run constantly. The, maintenance man explained this was part if the poor construction or whatever. It’s annoying and loud. Again, runs CONSTANTLY.
4. The FOBs NEVER work. Constantly have to find which door my key fob will work on. And sometimes the fob doesn’t work to get into the other building where the mail is. Can’t get my mail sometimes
5. They said they were going to open a spa where resident would receive a discount when I first moved in… That was feb 2015. Never opened.
6. I’m not a smoker but you aren’t allowed to smoke on your own balcony. This is weird to me.
7. It’s waaaaaay overpriced. All hype, no substance. Stay away.

This place is absolutely awful!!! I was one of the first people to move into this building. I had my entire ceiling replaced in my living room due to mold issues. Took them 6 months to finally fix it. I finally had to get a lawyer involved because they were dragging their feet. Not to mention the maintenance man told me during the process. Wow if this was me I wouldn’t be happy… Yet he went to the people who lived across from me and told me oh it’s not that big a deal. You replaced my whole ceiling and it’s not a big deal? Oh btw they didn’t offer me anywhere else to stay during this process. My toilet was never attached to the wall. The office manager is useless. She must just online shop on her computer all day long because she never ever returns any call, and never has any idea what she’s talking about. It’s always «oh let me call you back.» Never does. The elevators might as well move backwards their so friggen slow! And btw they stop working every time it rains because there isn’t a lightning rod on the building so it gets struck every time there is a storm. 5 story building. No elevator that works! Gets old. Pretty darn fast! Costumer service is HUGE. The only one who has a clue what she is doing is Nicole, and she only works the front desk. The lack of rent renewals should be the sign that everyone else has the same issue. Save yourself the headache!!!
