I moved into The Brockman Lofts at the end of September. The building is beautiful and the location in downtown LA is excellent. Since there are only 80 units in the building, the residents are pretty friendly. I also had a good experience with the Leasing Office. They responded quickly to my questions before I moved in and they continue to respond quickly now that I live here. So far, it's been a really nice living experience.

The one hundred year old Brockman Lofts was the old Brooks Brothers building and has been beautifully renovated. I moved in a few months ago and love it's charm and elegance. Romanesque revival/Beaux Arts outside meets luxury industrial lofts inside with a mixture of old brick, concrete, granite, marble, wood floors and stainless steel. Bathrooms are grand and modern. Kitchens gorgeous. Other reasons are: 24 hour under building valet parking! (you pay extra for it but worth it) Management is very kind and atte... read more

I've never written a review before, but here I am. Long story short, I scheduled an appointment to view one of their apartments last week. I drove 45mins from Santa Monica to get there today. I show up and try to notify the team of my arrival - No answer, so I try the main entrance which is locked (to be expected) so I walk around the building to see if there's another entrance to reach the leasing office, well there isn't. So I contact the management office to let them know I'm waiting outside for my appointment. The lady I... read more

Building is falling apart and Simpson housing robs its tenants. Old management made crude jokes about tenants behind our back and new management is trying best to pick up pieces. Takes months to half a year for maintenance requests. Trash is constantly backed up. Was not told about additional bills when moved in. Emails about water not working, elevators not working, loud renovations. They'll charge you for amenities even though the bottega Louie underneath hasn't been open for a year and a half and there's loud construction... read more

We were initially excited to move in to Brockman lofts and loved the unit we chose. Soon after we moved in loud construction noises began occurring in an adjacent unit middle of the night through early morning hours. After alerting security to the issue we assumed it would be handled quickly. The noises continued for over a month with multiple units complaining. We continued to alert management about suspicious behavior of the tenant causing the noise and were told not to worry about it. Come to find out - management was awa... read more

This was the worst place I have ever lived in my life. It was so bad that my girlfriend, and I, felt forced to move after only three miserable months of living there. Firstly, I totally agree with others here on this Yelp page. No one ever mentioned the charges for water/trash/sewage from Utility Management which can be $250+ a month. Even after I moved they continued to charge me for utilities because management failed to take me off the account, even when I handed in my keys. Also, south facing units also overlook the poo... read more

I filled out an application and paid the application fee and also $500 deposit, shortly there after I was contacted by the leasing office by Victor and told my application was rejected and that my deposit will be refunded ASAP.

My husband and I lived in a unit with one bathroom. We paid +/- 400 per month for water/sewage/trash, excluding electricity. The bill is not based on actual usage, so we had to pay that amount of money even when we were out of town for 16 days and our apartment was empty. Also, usual apartment problems, but the issue was 'too often' & 'taking long to be fixed'; cold water only in winter, broken heater in winter, broken air-conditioner in summer, plus elevator problem. Besides, I had negative experiences with the management t... read more

DO NOT MOVE HERE Leasing agents here lie, do not trust them. Utilities sans electricity are not based on your actual usage. I was told by SEVERAL leasing agents that my utility bill would be in the $120-$140 range. I was a bit fearful of signing a lease at a building that does not pay water but trusted the agents. My first water bill comes, charging me $135.44, for 12 days of prorated water/sewage/trash. Second water bill is around $250, which is absurd and 2-3 times the average, if not more. They haven't audited the ... read more
