Americana Warner Center

Since my last post management has changed and there has been a ton of improvements! All units are now being remodeled for new move ins! The office staff (especially Ana) are incredible and the overall community here has shifted. I recommend this place to all my friends and family.
To the individual/​s who question my review–
1. Relax.
2. You get what you pay for– is this a newly built building with $ 2,000+ for a 1 bedroom? no.
Wherever you live there will be issues. This is Canoga Park not Beverly Hills. I am entitled to my opinion and review of this building just like you are entitled to your bitter one.

I lived there for four yrs, it was good community till ASHLEY was manager after that became horrible experience! uncaring manager, rude and poor customer service.
they don’t even care about their tenants, they don’t answer the phone. You don’t have hot water at least twice a month at weekends. I sent email to manager about something moving in A/​C canal at September, same as before they didn’t care so we got dead squirrel at A/​C canal at NOVEMBER, after almost more than 2 months it took 3 days for them to take of this horrible situation after a lot of calls! we needed pest control they didn’t care about it! I did by myself. Walk ways always unclean! even when you asked, those neighbors that they have patio actually most of them use patio as a place for pet’s wastes and management is completely fine with this! twice yrs they have inspection during that patios are clean and after that again same as before!
Indeed if you choose to live there you are on your own RISK!
Very uncaring and rude.
Extremely not recommended.

Meh.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND AMERICANA WARNER CENTER! Live here at your own risk. The units are small and the bathroom is not enclosed, meaning it is very small with the sink out in the hall where the closet is. The on-​site management is the absolute worst in the business! Rude, mean and ignorant to the end! Every other day there is a water shut off notice on the door, at least twice a week, not to mention pizza menus and some cards from some cheap local taxi service that are constantly stuck in the door. The maintenance staff will be standing on your patio doing work, with no prior written notice from management, so ladies, make sure to peek out before opening your blinds, in case you forget that you are still in your nightgown. Paper thin walls where you can hear EVERYTHING! The male workers behave as if they were just released from prison the way they stare at the female tenants, creepy. Any positive reviews that appear on here I am pretty sure were written by someone associated with Americana Warner Center staff. Do not move in here and find out the hard way that you have wasted your time and hard earned money. Be smart and pass on this place. Good luck.

Horrible experience here! Managment is rude and doesnt care one bit about their tendants!!! Ive lived here for about 2 yrs & its been getting worse and worse.
The other tendants are loud and really really ghetto. Late night partys all the time. Fights and people screaming! I dont even think Managment cares one bit. It just amazes me. Ive seen drug deals going on. Its just really not a nice place to live.

I’ve been here a couple years now and for the most part it has been a positive experience:
I like the complex, the staff are very nice, the apartments are worth what we are paying for them.
BUT, there are some definite negatives that are causing me to look elsewhere:
a little run down, warn out washer & dryers, but the main negative is the maintenance: it takes weeks to get your AC fixed even when your apt is at a constant 85 – 95 degrees.

I have lived here for about a year now — Experience has been pretty good. When you first look at the complex you think «old»… It is def not one of these newer fancy apartments, it looks run down and a little ghetto. The main color of the apartments are green, yet management has not finished painting a few of the patios so it looks a little off. And its been over a year?- you would think they would take a few hours and just finish the painting?
The pro’s are– even though the property looks a little old and kind of off– the apartments are very trendy looking inside. My apartment has nice/​dark wood floors and new granite counters with a cute bar area. The light fixtures are very trendy and sleek… and the patios are a good size. The fact that it is only a 2 story building itself– you really don’t have to worry about noise. AND you don’t have to climb stairs, after stairs, after stairs! I love that!
NOW the cons– Because rent is not too expensive — you get a lot of lower-​class people. I HATE IT… in the last year we have seen drug-​deals, I smell marijuana all the time and its really embarrassing when I want to have my family over because people park shopping carts by their apartment doors. HA-​HA REALLY?! The gym is really small– they have two old 1980 looking bikes and one treadmill.
Overall– my experience has not been too bad. I love the staff there — they are friendly and the leasing manager is a real sweet-​heart. It’s not really their fault about my cons… Its just the property value and condition of the apartments.
I recommend living here if you are a first-​time apartment go’er and don’t really mind this kind of atmosphere. The price is really good and location is wonderful. Just need to make some small adjustments and it would be a 5-​star, rather then a 3.
