Can't beat the deal, but definitely not a lot of frills. Appliances, countertops, etc., pretty old but all very functional.

I think the University Village apartments are really nice. The apartment itself is relatively updated and we have no major issues. If you are unfamiliar with Los Angeles, the rent here is extremely cheap especially for the Westside. It would be impossible to find an apartment at this quality for this price.

I think the only downsides to the apartment are that it is literally on the freeway - the freeway separate both University Village properties. It is also not in the most walkable area, and the street parking is very dangerous. There is only one stop light so people J-walk a lot and Sawtelle is a busy road and cars drive 40 MPH at a minimum. There is also street cleaning on Monday and Tuesday and sometimes its impossible to find street parking on those nights so if you are in a 2 car household like me it can be a little frustrating.

I also think it would be nice if there was a small gym here but that would just make it extra nice!

The children can get quite loud during the day and can be a bit annoying. Doing laundry is challenging because the app will say everything is available but no one has taken out their clothes.

But it is affordable in comparison to LA costs and big.

It's a lovely, peaceful, safe complex. Lots of kids and virtually all the amenities are geared toward children - like the pool and the several playgrounds. There are not really any amenities for adults. Oh, and the internet situation is a disaster.

Great value, okay location

Great value for the location and amount of space. The complex itself is nice to walk around in and pretty, but a lot of the units are very dated. Appliances all work, but very old flooring and fixtures. Relatively quiet with lots of kids and pets around. No in unit laundry.

University Village seemed to be the budget option for my time at UCLA Law. However, I quickly found that it was actually the best possible place I could have landed! There’s no better value near UCLA.

The apartments are not the newest, but they are in general well mantained. The location offers good services close by and public transportation to the university and other places.

Nice apartments, great community, large garages. Apartments are a little old, but the low price completely compensates this.

Lots of grilling areas and closed playgrounds for kids.

Nice apartment with one of the cheapest rent you can find the area. Easy commute from the apartment to school (several buses in the area). The maintenance team is relatively responsive.

Exact location and floor plan of the apartment is based on pure luck.
