I lived at an R&E Apartment building in West Hollywood and the apartment had beautiful hardwood floors, cool older crown moldings and VERY SWEET neighbors. Also, the people in the main office (I spoke mainly with Rosie and Eli and they are the only names I remember, but everyone was nice) were very helpful, for example, the there was no airconditioning and with the fires LA has been having this summer, the heat was brutal. HOWEVER, I called the main office for some other reason and happened to mention how hot it had been, and she offered to have an AC installed with no cost to us! When we did move (I needed to be closer to my job) Nearly our entire security deposit was refunded very fast. No hassle, which is the FIRST time I have not had to hound an apartment complex regarding the security deposits. The communication between R&E is great. They also gave us 2 parking spots with a one bedroom which you usually only get when renting a two bedroom. Oh, and they're pet friendly!!! The pet deposits were the lowest I've paid in Los Angeles, I can't remember what they were, but I do remember being very pleasantly surprised when they told us the amount. Overall, very positive experience all around!
Pros: Great hardwood flooring! Very nice building manager
