Tenant Reviews for 1050 WILSHIRE BLVD

Glo is a beautiful and peaceful place to live. My husband and I had a great time, got all of our work orders taken care of and everything was kept very clean. The biggest problem here is the management! After making 4 reminder calls that we were moving in on a certain day we arrived and they had NO IDEA we were moving in that day. Then, our first 2 rent checks were lost, they just "disappeared" and the only reason we found out about those two checks were because we went down to the lobby and asked to make sure everything cleared. We also came back from work one day and our 2 parking spots were given away to another couple, for no reason. We went without parking (meter parking) for 4 days until they told us they were completely full and that we would just have to park in the "Prospective Resident" parking until we moved out. It's been 2 months since my husband and I moved out and we are STILL calling every other day to get our parking and move-out refunded... They NEVER pick up the phone or send you the papers they promise to send... Living here is NOT WORTH THE HEADACHE AND HASSLE they people will put you through!!

My son and 2 other students were on a one semester visiting student program to USC. My husband accompanied the 3 to work out and sign a 1 semester lease (5 months). The leasing office gave them the short term lease, then threatened to sue all 3 boys when they moved out at end of the lease. They kept their security and claimed they did not give 60 days notice. I have since come to find out that they also filed a claim that now sits on my son's credit report file. This complex is run by the most unscrupulous low life I can think of. To RUIN the credit of 3 young inexperienced people just for their own financial gain is appalling. SHAME ON YOU 'GLO'.

If you enjoying being sexually harassed by management, or if you enjoy cold showers and no hot water then GLO is perfect for you!

There's nothing worse living in an apartment with incompetent property managers. The people working at the front desk are complete -------, always losing packages and never having any answers. Moreover, they are condescending when they talk to you. And to really top things off, I've been finding roaches the size of small puppies roaming around my kitchen lately. Upon notifying the management of this disgusting issue, they have done NOTHING. Save your money and pass on this overpriced apartment complex.

The management team/leasing office was enough to make me move out. They are unresponsive, rude, unhelpful, and unwilling to work with their residents. I have now been out for over a month and have still not received anything from them in regards to a security deposit, despite calls and emails multiple times a week. It has come to a point that we are suing them and taking them to small claims court, and they have still done nothing to work with us. Additionally, for new renters, they've hiked their prices. Before this management office started in May 2011, 2 bedrooms were around $2k/mo with parking included. Now they're asking for upwards of $2500 with no parking. They are not worth your time or money!

If you want to save yourself from frustration, I would strongly discourage you from renting at Glo Apartments. The management and staff are simply impossible to work with. The Glo property, managed by Holland Residential is terrifically disorganized and dishonest. If you choose to rent, be prepared to document every and all paperwork you receive, due to the fact that the management cannot keep its own lease agreements, and you will need to show them copies of their own paperwork in order for them to uphold their agreements. Also, when the management is at fault, instead of receiving an apology they will threaten to take you to court. Of course after you show them copies of all the paperwork they have sent you which states that you are correct and they are incorrect, they will stop the threats, but still not apologize. In other words, move to the Glo if you enjoy spending your time doing the managements job for them.

I have lived at Glo since it first opened. I have survived two different owners and at least 6 management changes. I will be moving out shortly, as I can no longer tolerate the rude, incompetent, unhelpful, condescending staff. I wonder why it seems too difficult for the owners to find competent professional staff? Warning! Do not believe the rhetoric about "how important the tenants' satisfaction" is to them. This is definitely not true for any of the numerous different Glo staff I have encountered over the past 3 years. Do not make the same mistake I have: do not waste your time , effort, or money here.
