Class A+ in Santa Monica

Avalon Towson Review

1 block from the beach, class A apartment, rooftop pool, gym, walking distance to restaurants and shopping in Santa Monica.

I have been living in this complex for over 2 years. Everything I need is walking distance. I am close to my favorite restaurants, lovely walks, Runyon Canyon hike, and about 30 mins driving to any part of the city.

Ava is an ok apartment. The apartment itself is very nice and the amenities are good, but the security is lacking and the area itself isn’t very nice. The new management is working hard to improve but for right now it has a lot of room to get better.

Really like the property!

Very cute neighborhood, very attentive and friendly staff, lovely community to be a part of. Very quiet location but walkable to restaurants and services. Close drive to fun places like venice and santa monica.

Good location, uneven maintenance

This is a great place to live that is budget-friendly and halfway between two cities in the Triangle, Raleigh and Chapel Hill.

Very pleasant.

Really nice that all utilities are included in the rent payment, rent went up by 4% after one year, it seems to be about that for every year. Maintenance is extremely quick and attentive, we have had a few mice throughout the year and some roaches, but pest control is pretty quick. Parking is a bit pricey but probably expected for DC apartments, it’s about $200 for indoor garage parking, and $170 for outdoor parking. Two bedroom two bathroom is really nice, and we have a very spacious living room, and plenty of light. The kitchen is also good enough for our use, enough counter space, feels a little bit cramped with two people but not too bad. We have enough space for a large dining table and it’s easy to host friends. Very close to Wisconsin Avenue and the neighborhood is quiet. I have had a few problems with upstairs neighbors being too loud sometimes but they have kids so it’s kind of unavoidable. Whole Foods is really close, Trader Joe’s is about a 15 minute walk. About a 20 minute walk from the school but there is the Wisconsin Ave shuttle that comes every 20 minutes or so and is about a five minute walk from the apartment.

Great place to live as a medical student. Close to campus and is very modest.

Its true that I have liked my stay here at Eaves West Valley Apartments, what motivates me is the timely and effectiveness of workers especially Ernesto a guy to rely on.

If you're an adult seeking a respectful, quiet, and safe living environment, I would not recommend this place. The atmosphere is consistently loud and noisy, with frequent parties and immature, drunk, disruptive behavior from the student residents, making it feel more like a college dorm than a so-called "luxury" apartment building.
Unfortunately, the property manager shows little interest in enforcing rules or addressing ongoing issues. Raising concerns is often pointless and may only lead to frustration or embarrassment, as you're unlikely to see any meaningful response.

The management team has been SO helpful in the past 3 years I've lived here! And you can't beat the location: it's only a 4-minute walk from the law school. The only thing is it gets really hot in the building in late March till early April and they don't turn on AC until late April! That's absolutely unbearable
