More or less as advertised however not “luxe” at all. Clean, comfortable apartment. Semi quiet as long as you don’t open windows. If upstairs neighbors are home you can hear tv, moving stuff around, chairs, etc. No air conditioning. Building itself is rundown and very dated (70’s?) Building shut off water on two occasions during my stay and a resident told me it happens all the time. Only one small elevator for whole complex. Can be extremely slow if others are going in and out at same time.
Located on W. Sunset where there is relative steady traffic day and night. People drive very fast. Dangerous pulling into and out of garage. Extremely limited street parking directly in front of building and very dangerous parallel parking with traffic. No additional street parking options. Not a great walking area. You can technically walk to the beach if you risk walking on the side of busy road with stretches of no sidewalk.
Other residents were nice and it felt safe. It is overpriced for quality and I think they get away with that because it is Palisades.
