Apartment Review for Miller & Desatnik - Los Angeles, CA

I moved into this apartment in January of 2010. This apartment has so many issues it's nuts. When I arrived with my things to move in there were dead cockroaches EVERYWHERE in the apartment: the kitchen, the closets, the bathrooms, the bedrooms: everywhere. It was also filthy and had clearly not been cleaned well after the last tenant had moved out. I called the manager and he said he would send an exterminator out that day. Five days went by before anyone showed up. Since then we have seen about seven cockroaches since we've been here (it's almost July now), not including the monsters that are in the parking garage. On top of the roach problem my roommate's room has flooded multiple times, and I mean FLOODED. Her brand new bed set was severely water damaged because of the flooding. When we spoke to the manager about it (the entire house smelled like gross mildew for two months) he said he would send someone over. All they did was use a high power fan for two days straight to dry out the carpet, hence the several floodings since then. No one has been back to fix the problem since, though we've contacted them each and every time it has flooded. Reason number 86 not to move here: there is definitely a mold problem in the building. Our current neighbor who we share walls with is breaking his lease because a mold inspector found mold in the apartment. Apparently the woman who lived there before him also moved out because of mold, but I guess they didn't care enough about their tenants to fix the problem before they moved in with a small child. Honestly, there are a million and 18 better choices to live in a 1/2 mile radius than this building. BEWARE.
