OK apartment, nice maintenance staff

The units in the Glendon are solidly large, although a little outdated (e.g., older appliances, carpeted bedrooms). The building is mostly inhabited by undergrads, so some neighbors have parties and common spaces like the lobby and elevators could be cleaner. The pool and gym are both slightly nicer than most other buildings I've seen. The package system is a bit of a disaster and packages do go missing sometimes, but the maintenance staff is very nice and usually come quickly after a request is submitted (admittedly, things do break somewhat often). Building management, however, is pretty much completely MIA, so you won't have any luck negotiating your rent or asking for special requests. I definitely wouldn't stay in this apartment after graduation, but considering I can walk to campus it's worked well for my 2 years of school.

The Glendon

The location is the best since it's only 15 minutes walk to the campus. Also enjoying my life having a spacious room and good amenities such as gym and pool. Management company is also good - whenever I have problems, they address it pretty quickly.

Beautiful facilities and great location

This is a beautiful complex to come home to every day. The courtyards are filled with palm frees and fountains, all of which are well-maintained. The floor plans for 1-bedroom apartments have the best layout of any that we saw in Westwood. There are also lots of areas to spend time sitting outside, including a pool. The building's ownership changed hands this year, and this change has been completely positive. The new on-site management staff is open every day from 9am-6pm, and the team is extremely friendly, professional, and responsive. Perhaps the only major downside is the cost -- though this isn't surprising given that Westwood was ranked one of the most expensive neighborhoods to rent in all of the United States. (Note, however, that utilities and other services are not included in rent and run about $100-150/month.) Also, the size of the complex, which has several hundred units, means that this is a less intimate environment than would exist in a smaller building, so don't expect to get to know your neighbors.

Westwood Reviews

Westwood is great. Can take the Bruin Bus to get to campus easily so no need to pay for parking on campus. Westwood village is an easy walk with many great shops and restaurants. Westwood park is around the corner which offers all kinds of outdoor activities. Really enjoy living in this quiet, safe neighborhood.
Great college area, a little depressed because of COVID, but has a lot of potential and feels very accessible. Close to other nice areas like Brentwood or Santa Monica
Expensive, quiet depending on how close you are to undergraduate apartment buildings and the medical center.
The walk to Westwood is kind of long, I usually drive.
Westwood is a great area for graduate and professional students who are not from LA. It is walkable (grocery, pharmacy, restaurants, etc.), which is nice. Campus is close by, and a bus service runs from Weyburn directly to campus.

There is a large amount of homeless activity in the area.

It is a very young neighborhood. A lot of undergrads in the streets.
I'm not a city person, so it feels like there's nothing to do. I don't like bars or clubs, and I can't afford to eat out. Movies are pretty expensive, too. I would love more green space to sit and get away from the noisy 405. But there is a grocery store nearby, and there are a fair number of restaurants and movie theaters. There should be plenty to do for city people. Westwood feels like your typical college town, and it's full of students.
Lots of dining and grocery options at all price points. Very happy to have Ralph's and Target within walking distance (along with upscale groceries if that's your thing). 30 min to LAX or Santa Monica by car (if traffic is cooperative). Easy access to the 405. Lots of Uber cars around to take you where you need to go. Some quiet neighborhoods around campus that are good for running.

Some homeless people but overall feels quite safe. Only problem is that (surprise) it's definitely not cheap to live here.
Westwood is full of UCLA students. Everyone is friendly and there is a shopping center within walking distance of the apartment. Our apartment building is also filled with a lot of nurses or retired couples which is nice. We also have many foreign exchange students living here.
