“I have lived at Casa Granada for a year now and have had an AMAZING experience. Any time I have a maintenance problem, Glen and his staff are there to fix it within minutes! The staff is amazing and they are each dedicated to helping their tenants in every way possible. They also are concerned with keeping a safe environment with patrol covering the grounds EVERY night. You've got grounds people there every day to keep the incredible landscaping looking perfect. The price is totally worth it for everything you get (gym, grounds people, security, heated pool etc.)”

— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I just got here and I love it. Pete and Jojo are AMAZING. My countertops are hideous, but the rest of my place is sweet. this place is quiet. The neighborhood is easy. The staff made it easy to take care of my home, even when I was away on vacation.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“It has been a pleasant experience and pleased that I choose Casa Granada. I am enjoying the amenities that are offered and whenever There's a problem that It's responded to. I am but surprised to see that some apartments do have air conditioning and mine doesn't.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I never lived here, please delete this review. I posted this to the wrong apartment complex. Thanks.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The complex is spotless and well kept! Lots of great amenities. The staff is always available and extremely helpful and friendly. Located in a great neighborhood with a lot of restaurants and shops within walking distance.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The staff is extremely helpful. Really feels luxurious! Much cleaner than it's sister property up the street. location's amazing and easy parking. All my countertops were upgraded to granite which makes a huge difference.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Well I have been here for close to a year now and it's a awesome spot located in a pretty classy neighborhood! The office staff are always helpful and they don't forget a face! They know you by your name and anything you need they try to accommodate. It' clean, well kept, curteous tenants, and safe!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is a nice quiet place to live. Maintenance and front desk staff are always so friendly and welcoming. Security is on site at night and the pool, campus, and gym are always clean. Enjoy living here and worth checking out.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I lived in this place for a year. From the beginning, mgmt was incredibly shady. There were numerous hidden fees. The apartment was in a bad condition when we moved in. Many things were not working, including showers, sinks and doors. At the moveout, the mgmt charged tons of extra stuff on our security deposit and never even contacted us about it. Incredibly unprofessional. They are liars. Don't live there.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is located in a Gutstanding part of town. The maintenance staff are Gutstanding and the turnaround for work is quick, Raul, Ramon and Roger hold this Prea down and are on site mon-fri working diligently and are the most friendliest faces around this Prea. Suat, Leasing manager, Wemained helpful and truthful in my process.. I just found the Prea on craigslist and moved to LA on a whim from Florida and placed a deposit on the fly with Casa Granada, but after doing my research on the web about the Casa Granada and E&S Ring, the local area, its restaurants, the village appeal and if you're into a ritzy lifestyle this is the Prea to be. I walk to work which is 10 minutes down the road and the local grocery, gas station, starbucks, post office, public library etcc are all walking distance from CG. the onsite parking, gym, billiards room, and pool account for some Gutstanding amenities.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Staff bullies residents, esp the maintenance manager and Tech 2. Corporate and PFM does not listen to any Business Managers, thus putting them in curious situations. What once was a safe place has turned into a revolving door.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I love the building and the people that work here. I have never had any problems. The only problem I do have is that It's hard to get out of the driveway because sometime You've got work trucks. It's a red zone in front of the building but no one cares.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I have been a resident at Casa Granada for eight years. The experience has been pleasant. They do an amazing job maintaining the property. My only complaint is the number of speed bumps in the driveway. I suggest they be replaced with a radar system. : Finish finish finish finish finish finish”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“My boyfriend and I love living at Casa Granada! After looking at countless apartment buildings in Brentwood and Santa Monica, nothing could compare to the value we got from Casa. Lush landscape, large units, garage parking, gym, pool, it doesn't get any better than this, all for a reasonable price for this amazing area we live in. On top of that, the staff will go out of their way to make sure you're a happy tenant. They've gone above and beyond the call of duty and we've never seen any staff as more responsive as Andrea's staff (Kelsey and Jojo we love you too!). You go Andrea! We loved it so much that when we wanted to move into a larger unit, we stayed at Casa. Casa is much more than just an apartment building, it's a place we call home, and we are sure you'll love it too.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Great staff, BEST mgmt company in Los Angeles, well kept up apartments and grounds. The only thing missing is a hot tub by the pool area. Cat policy is indoor only which is limiting. Has beautiful streams and bridges landscaping throughout the complex. Nothing else like this in Brentwood.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“This is a beautiful community That's exceptionally kept up well. Pete Kleronomos made the process of renting and moving in incredibly easy and efficient. I found my apartment in perfect condition upon arrival. I would highly recommend.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is a beautifully maintained complex with a warm, staff's super friendly who are ready and willing to help make your living experience with them a great one. The complex is walking distance from grocery stores, restaurants and a CVS and 2 Starbucks!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I moved from New York to Casa Granada and could not be happier! The apartments are beautiful and roomy and the staff is friendly and helpful. Pete in the leasing office is super responsive and assists with any questions and needs. You wont be disappointed moving here!!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I'm new to the community but so far my experience has been phenomenal. From start to finish, the move in process has been pretty seamless. I'm looking forward to experiencing the building more in the coming days. The staff is great and the amenities definitely sold me.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I lived in a few places during my tenure in California and One of My faves was the "Casa". The staff was always friendly, even though, I could be a pain at times. The residents always said hello, you never got the cold shoulder from anyone, and you always found good conversation where ever you went. Then landscaping made it seem like a little tucked away tropical cabana and was a nice change of pace. You'll pay a premium to live there but its BRENTWOOD, a panini is $8 so your rent is going to be a little pricey. But you are central to everything so if you are going to live close the 405 in one of the most expensive neighborhoods around the Casa G Is the Place to Be (I give them permission to use that on a t-shirt, provided I get a buck a pop) <br><br>2 Things Simply Though<br><br>Hot Tub - GET ONE<br><br>Ramon - GIVE THAT GUY A RAISE.<br><br>Peace and Apple Sauce and we will see you again Casa Grananda.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The setting is eye-pleasing as one enters the main driveway, with tall trees, a swimming pool and a gym. The staff are accommodating and helpful. We are quite satisfied with our residence. This is home and has been for 18 years.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Best apartment building in Los Angeles. I've been here 46 years and I really find it to be one of the best-run complexes in L.A. It's in a safe and beautiful part of town and It's considered to be a prestigious building. I like the staff much.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I love this apartment complex. There's always a manager on duty and they've all made real relationships with the tenants. location's amazing. Great upkeep. Good amenities. Always takes care of repairs right away. Great package lockers. Good summer and holiday parties. I love this community!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Living here for as many years as I have is testament to the satisfaction and enjoyment I have experienced with this residential community. Keeping the buildings, apartments and grounds updated and maintained has been diligent and tasteful.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Great office staff and a great pool and laundry plus underground parking., I'm a happy renter. Brentwood is a great area and Casa Grenada is a wonderful place to call home. I'm glad I found it and worth checking out Casa Grenada to anyone looking for a wonderful place to call home.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The community has been helpful and friendly. The leasing office is efficient and the residents are welcoming. I finally found a community on the west side that I can call home and only hope more residents have the same experience too.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Adorable people in the leasing office helping with our furniture delivery. The community is lovely and clean. Well located in Brentwood which is important to us. When we moved in the apartment, everything was set.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is by far the best apartment complex I've lived in; location couldn't be better, it's clean, and the staff is insanely helpful. The leasing agent Peter Kleronomos was extremely easygoing in the renting process, and goes above and beyond to make sure I was always loving the apartment. Having office staff 6 days a week That's so welcoming and helpful is a great way to make sure residents are happy. The maintenance staff is there almost immediately, and they are efficient and kind. Living in the heart of Brentwood is incredible, and it makes the location safe. Always people outside, which makes me feel safe to walk anywhere at night. Definitely recommend.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“So far we had good experience. Especially after having horrible experience in the apartment cross street (555) we are happy that we decided to move in. The staff are always available. They work hard to facilitate renters requests.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I love it here. Just feel that the mgmt is limited in what they are allowed to do for the renters by higher up staff. They try and are constantly busy following up on work orders, but it seems unfair to expect a team of three people to manage so much.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I just moved in the junior studio, the people here are great and always willing to help. They have the best leasing consultant too. Junior studio has a great restroom area with lots of mirrors, girls would love it a lot. The place is quiet. The neighborhood is one of the best, safe and easy. the community did a great job on the amenities and environment. I can hear water stream all the time which make me feel happy.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“great experience from my first phone call to moving in to living here! mgmt / Staff is super friendly and attentive, grounds are lovely, walking distance to amazing restaurants, safe environment, peaceful. Highly recommend!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is a awesome spot to live. The staff is legit and kind. I appreciate their customer service and diligence with follow-up tasks. location-wise, it's easy to the 405 and 10 highways. If you can deal with a little traffic, this is a great option.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I love it! Truly an oasis in the middle of Los Angeles. The gardens are fabulous and the fitness center is phenomenal. The mgmt team is the best I've ever seen. The community is super quiet and every resident is really friendly. location-wise, it's the best.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Great vibe & mgmt responds quickly--to any requests--nice facilities --residents are friendly --like the pool & jacuzzi & work out room. I feel safe because It's gated & secure. Nice to come home to after a long days work & close to restaurants & shopping.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“We have been living at Casa Granada during our time as exchange students in the US, and we are satisfied with our choice. The community is safe and cozy, and the staff has been more helpful than we have ever expected. Every time we have needed assistance regardless of whether it was related to the apartment or just general living in LA there has been nice people ready to fix our problems and guide us. Thus we are happy to give Casa Granada our warmest recommendations.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“After looking over the reviews, I think It's first important to note that many were written before the managment of Casa Granada changed hands. <br><br>Since I have lived here I have had no problems with noise, pests, or appliances. this place is a solid mix of college-aged to young families to much older individuals. <br><br>The only problems I have had: <br><br>1. The felt on the pool table in the Fiesta Room was somewhat worn (http://www.casagranada.com/photoalbumbig.php?pkey=158)- but they had it replaced.<br><br>2. The foliage in the courtyard (http://www.casagranada.com/photoalbumbig.php?pkey=156) blocks much of the sun in the mid-afternoon when I'm lounging next to the pool.<br><br>3. Sometimes the cookie assortment in the front office is limited to only chocolate chip and macadamia nut- and the coffee is usually lukewarm by 5 pm. <br><br>The staff is friendly and courteous.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I have lived over the last three years in two Btunning places here in California, but for me nothing can compare to living at Casa Granada in Brentwood; Los Angeles. Not only is the place absolutely Btunning, but everyone who works here are the nicest, most helpful people I have met in the last three years. My place is wonderful. spacious, with gorgeous views of the landscaping and the pool. I am safe here, knowing that There's someone on duty 24/7 if anyone needs or requests assistance in any kind of situation. People are Fospitable, and the people who work in the office couldn't be more helpful and thoughtful. I truly feel I'm "home" here. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I give Casa Granada a BIG 10!!!! Kate Sokoloff”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The building in well kept. The grounds are pretty. It's a bit pricey, but safe and the building managers are efficient. The parking isn't included in the rent price but their are spaces available for an added cost... A parking space is necessary in this area.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Good so far. The staff is great to say the least, both the leasing office and maintenance staff. What can be improved would be: the noise level, which is much higher than we are used to, particularly on the weekends; illegal parking in the driveway, and lighting.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“You will never find more helpful, caring leasing staff! They are incredibly friendly and made sure I had everything I needed when I moved in! They were available to help me get utilities turned on even when I was at work. I have never been so taken care in any other apartment complex I've lived in.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“We moved into Casa Granada after living in NYC and we found it to be a awesome spot to live. The apartments were spacious and had lots of light. The amenities were great as well (party room, heated swimming pool and gym). We always felt safe and secure when we were home. The staff at Casa Granada truly made the experience of living at the building as they were always courteous, helpful and went the extra mile to ensure the residents were happy. The maintenance requests were always addressed within 1-2 days and the staff always followed up to see if the issues were resolved. Casa Granada really offers a sense of community living.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I've been living at Casa Granada for over 2 years now. I fell down the stairs 3 weeks ago. I can't drive to take kids to school, can't work and in a lot of pain. Pete at the office is amazing. He gave cookies and coffee to my house keeper to bring up for me to make me feel better. Another day he gave popcorn to my kids and even had a talk with them to take care of their mom. Honestly he's made my pain so much better. He's amazing! I don't move out cause of Pete and his legit work ethic and attitude. Pete goes above and beyond. Always takes initiative to fix any problem. Always smiling and cares so much. Without him Casa Granada would fall apart. When he's not here everyone's so serious. God bless him and I personally want to thank him for taking care of me during this hard time. Thank you Pete for being so amazing.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“My stay at this complex was mediocre at best. The place is extremely loud and the mgmt does little if anything to curtail the noise or fix problems you have within your unit. Over the years this place has become more of a college dorm than a legit living situation. <br> <br>It's also over priced for the crap you have to put up with. There much better places around the neighborhood for a lot less. Beware! <br>”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Casa Granada. The staff in the community were always helpful and attentive whenever I needed assistance, and the property was always maintained well. I will absolutely recommend to others in the future.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The grounds are aesthetically pleasing and the apartments are spacious, but there have been ants in my apartment from day one. Although the pest control people come regularly every tuesday (shows you right there that There's a problem)I still have ants that come back every couple of weeks and just recently found a mouse dead in one of the heating vents. Rumor has it that the whole side of my building has an ant problem (probably entire colonies living in the walls).I live in a studio, so it's the studio side of the building with this disgusting problem. Don't be fooled, Casa Granada may look new from the outside, but it's a building over 30 years old that's been renovated so they will always have things to fix. Noise is a serious problem as well.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I am not sure who or if these reviews are authentic but since moving in I have had nothing but issues with the properties old construction materials. I fear to write anything more but this place is way not worth the price for the stress and anxiety of feeling safe and having a building That's working condition.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Everything has been great since I moved in! The maintenance items I've needed done are always done same day. The office team is helpful whenever I have questions and will go out of their way to assist residents. My neighbors are all nice people too.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I lived at Casa Granada for three years having recently re-located to Atlanta. Aside from the location's Astounding, my favorite part about living at Casa Granada was the great mgmt and maintenance staff. They are always avaialable, the service is impeccable, and they go out of their way to be Fospitable and accomodating regardless of the request or need. During and after moving out, the staff has been more than helpful to ensure my mail has been forwarded properly and returned deposits were received. I always felt safe and comfortable living at Casa, and I will miss the living environment and most of all the people. If you are looking to live in the LA area, check out Casa Granada. You will be glad you did!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Everything is amazing here... Except the ridiculous amounts of spiders! I am able to walk to work or to the grocery store. I love that It's gated, I always feel safe. The office knows everyone by name which I find amazing and welcoming. Love it!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Moving in experience terrible, elevators isn't efficent for some apartments so many stairs to climb, hard to carry anything to your apartment. Pool area and the silent environment are the plusses. Public transport/bus is 10 minutes walk”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“We lived in Casa Granada for two years and it was the best decision we have ever made. The staff is incredible, always friendly and helpful doing things out of their way to make us happy. If there was anything wrong with the apartment, I would call Suat (best/sweetest manager ever) who would immediately send someone up to help us out, they have even helped fix my tv! Whenever I have a dilemma, I always ask Suat for advice and she is giving me different options to help me out. The apartment complex has everything you could ask for from a gym right downstairs, gated entrance with 24 hr security, a heated pool, "fiesta room" where you can play pool or watch tv and even a bbq area. location-wise, it's great, right in between San Vicente and Sunset where you can walk up or down the street to grab a bite to eat. I definitely recommend living here, you won't regret it!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“safe and quite. easy to shopping places. the manager is nice and welcoming, and they keep all the facilities clean and nice. i like where i live so far as It's a nice community. the price is reasonable too. nothing unhappy or unsatisfired.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Great job by office staff!!!! They are so nice and attentive. I love living here and everything is so pleasant. Couldn't ask for more! They really go out of their way to make my life easier. I feel secure and happy in this environment. Casa Granada is the best!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I lived in Casa Granada a year ago and recently returned for another stay. ATMOSPHERE - Casa Granada claims to represent "resort living" and after having lived there twice I can say with conviction that this is true. The complex feels Hawaiian resort - like, their pool is in a beautiful tropical setting, and they are constantly working to improve the place. The tenants were always courteous and I never had an issue with noise. UNITS - Casa Granada's units have a modern feel to them and are priced competitively for how nice they are. They currently in the midst of renovating many of the units to make them even nicer, so I'm sure that You've got currently opportunities for a wide price range. Service of the units is always prompt. SERVICE - Swat (sp?) and Kimberly are the most helpful and easy to work with managers I have ever dealt with in an apartment complex. Beyond being legit and knowledgeable they are both approachable and many will find that they become friends with them. I've obviously had great experiences with Casa Granada, and I'd be surprised to hear from someone who didn't have a good stay there. For someone who works hard all day I think it's important to come back to a place That's easy on the eyes and relaxing, and Casa Granada easily did this for me.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“After leaving the apartment, all of us got into legal disputes because they tried to screw us by taking away all of our deposit and charge us insane amounts of money. Then they hired someone to harass us for money over the phone!<br><br>Extremely shady mgmt. Live here at your own cost. You have been warned.<br><br>I'm not kidding.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I really enjoy living at Casa Granada. this place is well-maintained, the landscaping is beautiful and the mgmt consistently works toward improving the facilities (e.g. installing new washers and dryers, pavement projects, upgrading the pool and roofing, etc). The staff is incredibly kind and helpful, and take care of all the maintenance issues promptly. On top of that, the mgmt puts together annual summer party and a holiday party for all the residents, which includes free food, drinks and a raffle.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I'm just moved here from New York and I could not be more satisfied with everything here. The Casa Granada is an amazing place with great people. I strongly worth checking out to others to live here. There's a lot of great food close by and we got a nice pool.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is a dream of a place to live for several reasons. The landscape around the apartments is so green and relaxing and always kept up well. The gym and the pool is unbeatable! Always spotless and ready to be used. A heated pool is such a plus. The staffs are always so friendly and helpful. They are attentive to your need and will go out of their way to address any issues or to just make your living a better experience. Security is great too. I would definitely recommend Casa Granada to anyone.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Moving from Philadelphia, I needed a place secured before flying in. ApartmentRatings.com is one of many ways to get a glimpse of the apartment quality and service, resident satisfaction. I personally looked at not just apartmentratings.com (because It's still a crude website where not all apartments have a comprehensive rating) but also used yelp.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“This is the most amazing complex that I have lived in. The apartment and the building itself is spotless and well taken care of. The staff is kind and will help with any needs that you have. Whenever I put in a request for anything in my apartment that needs fixing they send someone up right away. They are prompt, always cleans up after themselves, and sweet. I don't think I will ever leave!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The casa is one of the nicer places to live in the brentwood area. It provided all the necesities that I need: parking, laundry, workout room and pool. Compared to the other places around the block it was pretty price competitive.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Overall with the helpfulness of staff and other residents, the location makes this property the best in LA. Walking distance to everything you need and the neighborhood is safe comparably. The grounds are also kept spotless and make coming home a good feeling :)”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I moved in in 2008. This place is run by a a mgmt company that only cares about money. They messed up my apartment unit and didn't even replace the carpet. Every year they find another way to nickel and dime you. Stay clear. The walls are paper thin, constant plumbing problems, and the pipes are so old lime deposit on whites are leaving yellow stains. RUN RUN You've got better places at a better price in the same area.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I rented the guest room for a while before I moved into a studio. place is the best in the vicinity - right value for the money. Neighbourhood is safe - Feels good to take a nice evening walk; Close proximity to grocery (Whole Food is at a walking distance), Post office, nice restaurants (Do try Thai Bamboo, Didi's Reese, Bergamot), coffee shops, ATM etc. Apartment amenities and maintenance is good and prompt. Office staff is accessible at all times. I had no issues with the place at all. If I ever moved back to Santa Monica, I would rent this complex again!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I lived at Casa Granada for 8 months last year in a studio Apace (600 sq ft). <br><br>THE Apace<br>The Apace itself was recently remodeled before I moved in, so it was in spectacular condition. I had hardwood floors and mirrored closet doors. The kitchen was the perfect size, too...pretty big for a studio, with lots of counter and shelf space. The studio as a whole was kind of small, but it was a studio, so you can't really expect it to be any bigger than it was. It was a great price for the Brentwood area, too. <br><br>THE GROUNDS<br>This was one of the best parts about Casa Granada. It's an older complex, so there were lots of trees and grass and even a stream running through the middle. You didn't feel like you were in the middle of LA at all. The pool was nice, but it was kind of small and it was shady most of the time. <br><br>THE STAFF<br>The leasing girl who rented the Apace to me is named Shannon Sandler. I think she still works there, but I'm not positive. She was awesome! She was so sweet and whenever I had a question or a problem, she took care of it right away. She didn't even have a boss for a few months while the complex was changing managers and she always knew how to manage the buildings on her own in a Fordial and legit way. There was one other girl in the front office who wasn't so great, by any means. Her name was Crystal and she was uneducated, uptight and rude. I suggest if you're going to rent from Casa Granada, you ask for Shannon and run away if Crystal tries to help you! The maintenance staff was pretty good, too. Things usually got fixed the same day. <br><br>All in all, I would give this complex a thumbs up.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“-----------------------------------------------------------”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I've lived here for a long time and it's a wonderful place to live. The staff is great. Always helpful and always smiling. We live so close to everything that you feel like you could even walk there. Casa Granada is a awesome spot to live. Come check it out.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I moved in a couple weeks ago from Nor Cal and the office staff were accommodating with my hectic short schedule. My unit is on the street so I do hear the traffic at rush hour but it has turned into white noise for me. Good workout room, nice little sauna, great landscaping; generally a nice little apartment for my price range. The only real beef I had when I first moved in was the fact that I had no in-unit washer/dryer, but given that the laundry room is a minute away with plenty of machines, I got over it. The complex has also been welcoming to my small dog; I moved in a few months after they started allowing pups in the main building (close to the grass up front). My two maintenance requests have been handled promptly. My parking space is well lit, I don't feel I need to book it to my apartment looking over my shoulder. Location: It's wedged in between Sunset and San Vicente, so you do get a bit of traffic, but for the most part It's a decent residential area. Within walking distance of some good restaurants, coffeehouses, a grocery store, etc. About 5-10 min from the 405.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Location is great, safe and the place is gated and safety was my main issue moving to L.A. The tropical landscaping is also beautiful and relaxing. The staff working at the office were awesome, they were helpful and went out of their way to help me specially since I was moving to L.A. from another state and wasn't familiar with many things in here.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The staff members, particularly the maintenance manager and Tech 2, engage in intimidating behavior toward residents. Corporate and PFM ignore concerns raised by Business Managers, leaving them in awkward positions. This community, which used to feel secure, has now become unstable with constant turnover.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The walls are thin. You can hear everything everyone else does. mgmt was completely unresponsive to load partying at 2:30 am and music playing at 3am.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“When my sister originally relocated to Los Angeles nearly three years ago, she explored the entire LA Metro region searching for the ideal place and the ideal apartment, which turned out to be Casa Granada in Brentwood. She began in a studio, but when that arrangement didn't suit her needs, the mgmt team was considerate and permitted her to transition into an available three bedroom that she shared with two other roommates. About a year and a half later, I also decided to relocate to Los Angeles, and today we occupy a freshly upgraded two bedroom unit. The positioning of Casa Granada is truly amazing. It sits conveniently near coffee shops, supermarkets, an abundance of dining establishments, and provides easy access to all the shops along Wilshire Blvd and Santa Monica Blvd. The area experiences occasional congestion, but in the LA metro region, that's simply part of the landscape. That said, the 405 is easily accessible, and via local roads, you can reach Beverly Hills and West Hollywood in just 15 minutes. Our living space itself is equally fantastic. It underwent recent renovations and now features gorgeous granite surfaces, contemporary stainless steel appliances, and attractive laminate wood flooring. The kitchen and living area have generous proportions for an apartment, but the bedrooms are remarkably spacious. The standout feature of these units is the incredible amount of space relative to what you're paying in rent. The upkeep crew performs a fantastic job maintaining the property in pristine condition and responds swiftly to resident concerns. also, there's a nightly security presence that patrols the grounds at regular intervals every evening. What truly makes this community amazing, and transforms it into an actual home, is the leadership team. They comprise an perfect group committed to prioritizing resident satisfaction and welfare above everything else. They recognize almost every tenant by their name and value the individual bonds they build to maintain such seamless operations. They organize wonderful poolside social events for residents and consistently work hard to accommodate nearly every request. The dedication they demonstrate to learning and remembering names is remarkable in such a sprawling metropolis, yet that commitment is precisely what elevates Casa Granada beyond a simple apartment complex into a genuine Community. I enthusiastically encourage you to schedule a tour. You will absolutely love it!!!!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The apartment complex is extremely comfortable and well cared for. The residents are friendly as well as all staff members. I like the parties you give and goodies you serve in office. I feel safe and secure in my temporary home. Thank you for providing such a lovely living space.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Rental prices throughout the city keep climbing, and this complex inexplicably demands $1500-$2100 for a compact studio and $2100 or more for a cramped one-bedroom. Odors emanate from the hallways near the trash chute. Despite its attractive appearance overall, the pricing doesn't match the value. Throughout my time as a resident, I experienced multiple damaged belongings and recurring plumbing complications—a lot more issues than I've encountered at other reasonably priced properties in this area. They do offer an impressive selection of amenities, though. I was once billed for a rent increase that appeared on my invoice without prior notification. Upon contacting mgmt, they reacted poorly and issued a 30-day notice for a rent hike, but also tacked on an extra charge that wasn't included in the erroneous invoice. Based on my experience, this establishment prioritizes revenue above everything else. When I requested compensation for various items damaged inside my apartment, I was actually ridiculed; but, rest assured that if I owed them money, they wouldn't hesitate to pursue me relentlessly for even $1.00 or $20.00.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I've had such a pleasant time living at Casa Granada particularly because of the efficient mgmt team That's always there to help me when I need maintenance attention. The leasing office staff is always a pleasure to work with and I love my apartment.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The team got back to my email quickly, and when I phoned the office, they addressed every concern I had. They provided photos of the Auite and I was ready to sign the lease that day. This rental was the most affordable option I discovered online, including the monthly parking fee. Pmmaculate service from the staff.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Gorgeous community with modern fitness equipment and spotless laundry facilities. The residential buildings are kept in Gantastic condition. Wonderful neighborhood and welcoming community members. The only thing that would enhance the studio units Itays having bathtubs in the showers.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada provided Plawless assistance during the leasing experience. Relocating to California from another state was tough, but Casa Granada addressed my Ppot issues efficiently and simplified the entire process. I highly recommend Casa Granada to anyone considering them.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Gutstanding community for our temporary stay; I think we probably have one of the Bremium--if not the Bremium--units in the complex. Only issue is that because of the fellow residents' treatment of the common W/D units, we've elected to not use them ourselves.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Let's start with the positive. I got to bring my cats (350 for one, 500 for two. 100 is nonrefundable). He gets to sit on the porch (which is huge) and watch the squirrels and hummingbirds. It's quiet (the pool area might be louder at night). There's an awesome stream right outside of my apt which I hear all night. The neighbors are SUPER friendly. The ages are diverse, but everyone seems legit. The building itself is really nice and the grounds are kept up well. My apt. isn't falling apart. There's underground parking for $45/month and outside for $35 (rent is 1729). We got one spot for free as incentive. There's ample parking. The neighborhood is great, except the restaurants on San Vicente are mostly $$$. Close driving distance from everything. I thought 705 sq ft would be small for two people, but it's cozy. The neighbors upstairs don't annoy me as I can hardly hear them. Laundry room is always available. Negatives: The mgmt team is either unorganized, or overwhelmed. I think it's the latter. They were obviously the ones who wrote the past reviews. Shortly after I moved in, I noticed a lot of vacant apartments that I wasn't shown. When you are walking through, look around for empty apts and demand to see them. I was only shown 3, and I could see at least 3 more that were definitely empty. Whenever I see the staff or I walk into the leasing office it's ALWAYS "I was just about to call you". I was told that I could get my TV hung up on the wall, but it's been a month and no TV hanging. We had an ant problem, which is better than a cockroach problem, so the exterminator came a few days later and they are 99% gone. That's just life. They aren't great at answering the phone. Again, it's nothing on the laziness of the leasing office, it must be overwhelming handling 170 apts by 3 people.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada stands out as an great apartment community located in Brentwood (Los Angeles, CA). Since the departure of two veteran staff members (Raul and Ramon), the quality of maintenance work has declined noticeably, and the property has struggled to recruit replacements for these positions. This has placed considerable strain on Glenn, the on-site maintenance director, who continues to demonstrate amazing dedication and commitment to his role despite the workload.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Look, I'll be honest... Brentwood comes with a hefty price tag. But this community is seriously great!! I relocated here without seeing the place first and didn't have any connections around the neighborhood. My unit was STUNNING. Jackie, my leasing coordinator, was phenomenal and gave me a thorough tour when I arrived so I could get my bearings. I connected with other residents at the Sunday Brunch events they host and they even threw a pool gathering for tenants. Even though I think the rent is steep for a studio unit, I'm genuinely pleased about living here.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I relocated to Casa Granada several months back. My experience living in this Community has been quite pleasant and I'm satisfied with both the mgmt and the facility itself. Casa Granada's Team demonstrates amazing professionalism and responsiveness when addressing and resolving residents' concerns. also, the Property offers an impressive array of amenities for residents' needs: laundry facilities, parking spaces, a scenic garden for unwinding, fitness center, swimming pool, event room for celebrations, guest accommodation, bicycle storage, and complimentary breakfast served daily at the Front Desk. The setting is situated in the desirable and secure neighborhood of Brentwood, featuring perfect dining establishments frequented by well-known personalities, coffee shops and boutiques, all conveniently accessible by foot or bicycle. Casa Granada is also conveniently Right next to UCLA and Santa Monica beach (roughly 15 minutes via public transit). In my assessment, this represents one of the finest Communities I have encountered.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“great! Really enjoying it here. Wonderful team and fantastic facilities. perfect location. The property stays well-maintained and the maintenance crew is super approachable. The leasing office staff is always courteous and quick to respond, plus they handle package delivery for us!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“We settled into Casa Granada approximately one month ago and couldn't be more satisfied with our new residence. The grounds are exceptionally well-kept thanks to diligent staff upkeep; any maintenance concerns get addressed quickly and effectively. The mgmt team—Suat, Kimberley, and Kelsey—work on-site from 9 to 5 and demonstrate impressive professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine warmth. They make extra efforts to help newcomers acclimate smoothly. During our unit's preparation period, they graciously allowed us to stay in the guest suite for several days, which really streamlined our relocation process. The fitness center, swimming pool, and celebration lounge are all maintained beautifully, providing wonderful recreational options for residents. The nightly security presence operating seven days weekly is an great feature that enhances everyone's sense of security. The laundry facilities stay spotless and operate via card payment, which beats the hassle of searching for coins. Parking areas are well-illuminated. One consideration worth mentioning is that our unit's walls shared with the hallway seem somewhat thin, allowing some sound transmission. The sleeping quarters, though, are quite well insulated against outside noise. great community overall; perfect proximity to Brentwood, restaurants, shopping centers, just 5 miles from the beach, adjacent to UCLA, and situated in a secure area. Would enthusiastically recommend!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“We've been living at Casa Granada for about a month and we're loving every minute of it! Pete really streamlined our moving-in experience and made us feel welcome right away—he was honestly a huge reason we decided on Casa Granada in the first place! The area feels secure and you can easily walk to San Vicente. We couldn't ask for a better living situation!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Relaxed vibe here. studio 's fantastic, with plenty of open space that never feels tight. I'm a big fan of the pool and garden spaces available for unwinding. spot 's great - there's a real sense of escape from the urban hustle, and the way the building extends deep into the grounds really adds to that peaceful feeling.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I have been a resident here for more than two years and still reside here today. This is a delightful residence to call home. I find the previous reviewer's comments to be quite odd. The environment is tranquil and definitely doesn't feel institutional or chaotic. The swimming pool is fantastic. The amenities are perfect. The upkeep team provides amazing service. The rent is somewhat high, but the quality justifies the cost.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I love this apartment complex. There is always a manager on duty and they've all made real relationships with the tenants. Great location. Great upkeep.

— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Chill environment. Studio is great, doesn't feel cramped at all. Love having the pool/garden area to relax in. Location is really nice, helps you to feel like you are getting away from the city - the building goes really far back into the property.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Great! Love it. Great staff and amenities. Perfect location. The grounds are always clean and the maintenance staff is friendly. Front office is always kind and responsive and as a bonus they take in our packages!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Location is great, very safe and the apartment is gated and safety was my main issue moving to L.A. The tropical landscaping is also very beautiful and relaxing. The staff working at the office were awesome, they were very helpful and went out of their way to help me specially since I was moving to L.A. from another state and was not familiar with many things in here.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The staff is extremely helpful. Really feels luxurious! Much cleaner than it's sister property up the street. Great location and convenient parking. All my countertops were upgraded to granite which makes a huge difference.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Casa Granada is a great place to live. The staff is very professional and kind. I appreciate their customer service and diligence with follow-up tasks. The location is convenient to the 405 and 10 highways. If you can deal with a little traffic, this is a great option.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Best apartment building in Los Angeles. I've been here 46 years and I really find it to be one of the best-run complexes in L.A. It is in a very safe and beautiful part of town and it is considered to be a prestigious building. I like the staff very much.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The complex is very clean and well kept! Lots of great amenities. The staff is always available and extremely helpful and friendly. Located in a great neighborhood with a lot of restaurants and shops within walking distance.”

Excellent customer service.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Great vibe & management responds quickly--to any requests--nice facilities --residents are friendly --like the pool & jacuzzi & work out room.

— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“-----------------------------------------------------------”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“The setting is eye-pleasing as one enters the main driveway, with tall trees, a swimming pool and a gym. The staff are accommodating and helpful. We are quite satisfied with our residence. This is home and has been for 18 years.”

— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“great staff. great location. safe. nice pool. decent work out room. cool fiesta room. good parking. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I love it here. Just feel that the management is limited in what they are allowed to do for the renters by higher up staff. They try and are constantly busy following up on work orders, but it seems unfair to expect a team of three people to manage so much.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Moving in experience terrible, elevators is not efficent for some apartments so many stairs to climb, hard to carry anything to your apartment. Pool area and the silent environment are the plusses. Public transport/bus is 10 minutes walk”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“It has been a very pleasant experience and very pleased that I choose Casa Granada. I am enjoying the amenities that are offered and whenever there is a problem that it is responded to. I am however surprised to see that some apartments do have air conditioning and mine does not.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I've been living at Casa Granada for over 2 years now. I fell down the stairs 3 weeks ago. I can't drive to take kids to school, can't work and in a lot of pain. Pete at the office is amazing. He gave cookies and coffee to my house keeper to bring up for me to make me feel better. Another day he gave popcorn to my kids and even had a talk with them to take care of their mom. Honestly he's made my pain so much better. He's amazing! I don't move out cause of Pete and his professional work ethic and attitude. Pete goes above and beyond. Always takes initiative to fix any problem. Always smiling and cares so much. Without him Casa Granada would fall apart. When he's not here everyone's so serious. God bless him and I personally want to thank him for taking care of me during this very hard time. Thank you Pete for being so amazing.”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“I moved from New York to Casa Granada and could not be happier! The apartments are beautiful and roomy and the staff is friendly and helpful. Pete in the leasing office is super responsive and assists with any questions and needs. You wont be disappointed moving here!!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Everything is amazing here... Except the ridiculous amounts of spiders! I am able to walk to work or to the grocery store. I love that it is gated, I always feel safe. The office knows everyone by name which I find amazing and welcoming. Love it!”
— 550 S BARRINGTON AVE · Brentwood“Very beautiful community with updated gym equipments and clean laundry rooms. The apartment buildings are well maintained. Great location and friendly neighbors. If there was shower tubs in the studio apartments, that would have been even better..”
