The Chelsea Apartamentos

they see them and that’s it. The elevator often goes out of service. You have to wish it won’t stop working on your moving day. They enter your unit quite often. I’ve never experienced such frequent “inspections.” One time they unlocked the door and entered the room while I was sleeping. It was traumatically scary. Life here is not so pleasant and I do not recommend living here .

against disabled people and do not have rent control. We applied for and were approved for an apartment that was perfect for our disability needs and what we had been looking for in Los Angeles for over 4 months. The management, leasing agent and owners chose to continue to take rental applications after our FICO and income was approved because the owners didn't want any more dogs in this particular building even though we have a legally registered service dog, it's still a dog in their eyes. We found out after being discriminated against that the owners had previously and suddenly raised the rent over $300.00 per unit per month in order to force pet owners and other tenants to move out. The owners and leasing department strung us along and lied to us for a week taking away our time, money and energy that we could have been putting into looking for another place to live. They needed someone else to come along quickly with a higher FICO score so they could legally deny us, it was the only way not to rent to us since we were approved with income and FICO. The leasing agent tried to shove us in another 2 bedroom unit in a different building that was not a fit for our disability needs and when we told her it wasn't a fit for us she was demeaning and down right cruel to us stating that "this isn't a restaurant business and even though you were approved first for the apartment you wanted, I wanted to give it to the other person who has a higher FICO and makes more money and wants an apartment like this because it's a nice place for her to sit and enjoy drinking her coffee on the private balcony". Then she kept trying to shove us in the other building again that allows service dogs because after all,we were already "approved". The stress from these people literally made us physically ill and has caused continuing distress in our lives.The unprofessionalism, rudeness and discrimination from all involved was truly inhumane to say the least.
