Tenant Reviews for 15530 ELLA BLVD

these are the worse apartments ive ever stayed in i have mice roaches and also termits ! the staff is also a handfull they dont know how to talk to there renters and everything is a problem for them ! i called numerious times to tell them about the problems i styaed on hold for about 20 to 25 mins. i had to call back to remind her that i was still on the phone and finally a couple of months later after threating to go to corprate they finally half way fixed the problem .i would never recommend noone to ever move in these apartments !!

These apartments are awesome. I believe a lot of the bad reviews are from past management. The new management has catered to my every need and really taken care of me. One of the reviews said the apartments aren't safe but I get home at 11p 6 nights a week and I haven't noticed one safety issue. There is security walking around from 9p to 6a watching everyone's cars. These apartments are te 5th I've lived in inu life and so far I Love them. Thank You LaJolla for the awesome stay!!

Where do I begin? The water is off at least twice a week. Most of the time their is no notice, if you do get one, it's after 6, and they just leave a piece of paper on your door. We pay a utility bill, BUT we often go days without the trash being collected. The trash starts piling up around the bins on the grounds. The stray cats love this by the way.The buildings are different colors. They started painting months ago, and never finished. We also have covered parking, for an additional fee of course. However, they thought it would be nice to take away from the few spaces that we have to park, to reserve those as well for an additional fee. Mind you, the covered spaces have not been filled. You are supposed to have a parking permit or park in the visitors spaces or have your vehicle towed...but that doesn't happen, the guest park as they please. It took three requests for maintenance to come fix a few problems and they leave your place a mess. I rated the laundry facilities with one star we have them, but they've been working on fixing them for months. Definitely not the place you want to be!

The location is great and not a lot of traffic on near roads anytime. Close to freeways and gas stations. Big community with plenty of floor plan options, many many new upgrades, nice hardwood floors and if you compare the rent price per square foot (monthly rent divided BY square foot (.65/sq.ft)) you will find out that this deal is a steal. The ladies in the office are welcoming and professional and even went out of their own way to help my family to be accommodated. New management is doing a great job with staffing and improving the property.

No No No No.... F*** lajolla

I moved in to these apartments on April 14 2012 with the whole entention of staying for 2 or more years. There were complications when moveing in. I was supposed to move in on the 1st of april but the apartment was not ready. So had to wait two weeks for them to get it ready or move into another unit which was in an unacceptable location and needed more work to even be livable but they thought it was ready to move into. Moved in.. No hot water to the front bathroom sink or the Washer hookup. Upon examination there was not pipes for the hot water even... In May a new management company took over. By May 20th I recived a letter that they were wanting to remodel all of the units at the front of the property and were requiring that all of the tenets in those units move to another unit on the property or move out. The units offered were either on the second floor (unacceptable as I was in a 1st floor.) or if I wanted to stay on the 1st floor a larger unit would be made avaliable but at $75 more a month. Neither of these options were acceptable. So I have chosen to move out. If you plan to move here Get everything in writing and hold them to it. also have a Lawyer oncall... They will make your life harder and not uphold decent principals no matter what they Manager says. Plus it may be a new management company but I am quickly relizing that most of the office personel are all from one family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT move in here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At first glance it looks like new management is trying to renew property. But you'll find out pretty quick that their only interest is filling up the units. There is no interest in you once you become a tenant and they have you under lease. I've been living here three months and there have been multiple instances of no running water or no hot water. The new management initially said that they are working on the problem. But today I'm told, this is an older building plumbing problems are to be expected. In other words it is what it is. The water has been completely shut off due to broken pipes the last two evenings I returned from work. The first night it was still off when I went to bed. This morning there is no hot water and management can't say when it will be fixed. Instead of fixing the plumbing they have started painting and renovating empty buildings. In addition to the water problems, maintenance is very slow about making requested repairs. It has taken weeks and numerous requests every time something needed to be fixed. I still have maintenance requests from a month ago that have not been addressed or even acknowledged after several reminders. This is not a place where you will be comfortable. Don't rent here if you have even minimal standards of what is acceptable.

I just signed my lease a week ago and right after I did a walkthrough I left out of town for a week.. When I came back and actually moved everything in I noticed a few maintenance requirements that needed taken care of.. When I called the office gracy (who signed my lease) answered and kept putting me on hold.. I told her a window was busted, my sliding doors were off track my refrigerator was hot and those were just a few of the small problems.. She put me on hold again n then tried to tell me I'd have to pay for it because they didn't see it when they did the walkthrough.. All n all the office people are insanely unorganized and I STILL haven't got my copy of the lease OR my mailbox keys and had to go down to the office just to get somethin taken care of!! Hopefully with this bring my first week here they'll do something to change my opinion because as of now I wouldn't refer these apartments to roaches..

Lajolla Champions is the worse place to stay in. When I move from over there they is so hard up on money, that they had to make up boggus charges on me so they cantry to get money out of me. A good thing that I had all my evidence to prove to they rachet asses that I did not owe them money. I will never tell anybody to move over there. I repeat I will never ever ever ever tell anybody to move over there.

This property has come a long way since I first started looking for my own place in this area. when I first moved here I could tell it had improved since my last tour of the property 1 year ago. I was impressed with how much the grounds keeping had improved. The property looked like a nice and safe place to raise my child. since I'm a single mother safety is my first priority. When I experienced my first problem with my heating system the maintenance came out to my apartment within 24 hours. So it wasn't a long wait which I thought was nice. The office staff are very polite and helpful and thoroughly explain about any concerns that I have had. All in all its a good place for a great price.
