IL Pompeii

I currently live In the il Pompeii apartments and it is awful. The entire property has an Infiltration of Rats!
It’s terrible, I can’t sleep, I can’t eat. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I have called the health department, an Inspector came out an found several areas In my apartment that needs to be corrected by property management.
I have been here almost 2 years and I am making plans to be out as soon as possible. Don’t move here, I am telling you, you will regret it.
I feel like a New Orleans refugee in Torrance, CA — it is scary and awful :(
*The Rat Issue is yet to be resolved, they are sealing up holes around the apartment so that Rats can die in the walls — God help us!!!*

I lived there for four years and made some very good friends with a couple of my neighbors. We all went through a period of management changes. They brought in some scary characters that didn’t know what they were doing. Thanks God they found Vanessa (the current manager)! In a few months she kicked out some unwanted elements and the place was great. I’m giving it 5 stars because as apartment living goes, I do believe this is as good as it gets. I still go visit my old neighbors and I get very nostalgic. There are times when I miss it. I’m seriously thinking about moving back and that’s a lot to say, because apartments are just apartments. The manager (Vanessa) makes this place an awesome place.

Rude receptionist.
Didn’t allow me to even ask appropriate questions regarding property
Unrealistic polices as she claims are néw policies she doesn’t rent to couples.
So if u want to rent a studio and ur a single mom with a daughter it’s a No.
She claims 1 person allowed in studio and 1 bedroom wow.
I wasn’t even on the phone long enough to be rude.
Unfriendly, unprofessional and I think she’s a liar what a poor reflection towards the apartment complex and staff
I’ll be sure to relay this message to all my military friends seeking apartments in south bay.
So no to couples and yes to singles only. Check the ad they do not state that on ad False advertising! !!!

I have lived in a studio apartment here for almost four years. The manager when I initially moved in was fantastic. She was involved in an unfortunate accident. They brought in a series of inept and down right criminal people to manage the property. At one point I might as well be living in the worst parts of Hawthorn or Inglewood living here. However, about a year and a half ago, they brought in the current manager Vanessa. When she initially came, we all thought she was going to be another short timer, doing nothing about the growing riff raff and over all deterioration of the property.
However, how wrong we all were. Within six months, Vanessa had evicted all the trouble makers, cleaned up the property and got much needed repairs for the grounds. She lets each new tenant know that this is a quiet, family complex and she will not tolerate disruption. But, Vanessa is one of the most approachable managers I have ever dealt with. Her maintenance staff, Marco and Geraldo are always there when you need something fixed, even on a Sunday. The grounds keeper Alma can always be found cleaning some corner of the property and always has a friendly smile and hello!
The best part about living here is that Il Pompeii is dog friendly. And Vanessa understands that our dogs are our family as well. She also understands that, this is not just an apartment complex she manages, but each unit is someones home.
Sure it’s an old building, sometimes things break, but it is an awesome place to live in The South Bay!
