Koreatown is a vibrant LA neighborhood fille with hidden gems, bars, eateries, and a collision of cultures. As the name suggests, the atmosphere in Koreatown is heavily influenced by Korean culture. The neighborhood is a favorite destination among foodies city-wide for its endless selection of authentic Korean restaurants, but the community has a much more diverse character than that: the broad range of cultural influences is exemplified in landmarks like the synagogue and contemporary art gallery of the Wilshire Boulevard Temple, the Latin fusion cuisine of Roy Choi’s restaurants, and the popular German/Korean/Hawaiian tinged gastropub, Biergarten.
Although the area is a hot spot for LA residents’ day trips, Koreatown is known as one of the best places to live in LA. Most locals rent their homes and enjoy parks, coffee shops, and stores within walking distance of their apartments.

Property Ratings at Kipling Apartments
Would i recommend this place? No. Place is not kept clean. Elevator is gross. Renovations are done very poorly
They tell me that they have a couple different studios "currently available", so I set up an appointment to view the specific studio which is at my desired price point. When I arrive for our appointment three hours later, that studio is suddenly not available for another month, but they have a few much more expensive studios available now. I say I'm still interested in viewing the studio which I came to see (I've made the trip, after all), and I'm informed that they're only able to show me a model unit. That's sort of a waist of my time, I say, but okay... I'll just have to view the actual studio later on. Nope! I won't be able to see the actual studio at all before renting it because their demand is "so high" that they have a bunch of "pre-leases from out of town"... Uh... run?
The worst place I ever stayed in in my life! Don’t believe the lies they tell you. They will tell you one thing but do another. They are rude. They are unfriendly and always cause you problems. There are roaches in the building and a lot of the appliances don’t work properly. The toilet doesn’t work properly and they never fix it when asked. A lot of the tenants in the building spend all night shouting and screaming and the police are always there. Don’t do it!
The building is from the 1920's and portrays historic vintage charm. The studios are reasonably priced for 21st Century Los Angeles. The units offer full bathroom and a bachelor kitchen with sink, burner and small fridge. The closets are spacious. The neighborhood is close to downtown but still on the West Side. It is convenient to Beverly Hills, Hollywood, West Hollywood and West Los Angeles. There are several Temples within the area. The building is a few blocks away from Wilshire Avenue’s dinning and shopping. The Grove/Farmers Market on 3rd is a few miles. Higher floors offer city views. The greatest drawback living here is the pest problem. Tenants can be put on weekly "pest control" but it's temporary if works at all. It's hard to understand why the owner has not gotten proper extermination. Where I lived last we also had pest issues but our home owners insurance paid to have proper extermination which included a tent. The rent is a good deal but high enough that one would expect pests be controlled. Especially with so many tiny units compacted. Since the building is older it is well insulated and I hear minimal noise from other units. The property includes a small fitness center. The elevator is old and mostly doesn’t work. It often gets stuck on the 4th floor which makes me fear and prefer the stairs anyway. However no elevator is difficult when carrying heaving things. There is a laundry room on the first floor which is a great convenience. The machines work well but it is a challenge to do laundry with no elevator. There unfortunately is no parking and parking is a big challenge due to the property’s urban location. There is a bus stop across the street and a metro station about a mile away that offer an alternative to driving. When one moves in they already know about the parking situation so it comes as no surprise.
