512 VETERAN AVE, Los Angeles, CA 90024

Moved in this Fall and the experience has been great so far. Landlord Susan has been very helpful and quick to respond with apartment fixes like carpet cleaning and A/C. She usually gets back to you within a day of the request.

I am going on my second year living here and have had a very positive experience. Our unit is clean and the building manager is very responsive to our requests for repairs and such. As far as Westwood goes, the units are more affordable than others.

This apartment is one of the best value for price apartments around UCLA. Walk able distance to UCLA as well as Westwood. A lot has changed recently in this apartment for good. Landlord Susan is helpful and friendly. You are all good if you don't party really hard and pay your rent at the right times. Only disadvantage I can think of is that it is not possible to extend lease on a monthly basis. I would totally recommend this apartment.

I hate the management system which operates by Solutions in LA, they hired bunch of inane Non-English speaker, mostly -------. Although my primary language is French, it would be much nicer and convenience for many tenant whose having a contract through Solutions in LA. Every first day of the month, I have to swing by their office to make a payment and they are always eating and those -------------- employees never brushing their teeth, and they have such a strong body odor, especially ----- girl who sat way in the back and pretends doing something. The worst thing is their manager always spoke ------- in the office. I'm very tolerance on his language barrier but 'when you in Rome, do as Romans, their major task is to working with clients from different country at the daily basis. So they should at least being capable to contain certain level of English proficiency unless you know french.

Staffs at the Solutions in LA, their lack of communication skills were the only issue. Their manager Arkar can't even speak single word in English which was fine, but the rest of his staff members are so vacuous in many ways. There was one Asian girl at that corner who seems reclusive from her cowoker, I had never talk to her but I had noticed that she smells weird. It was painful moment to me every time I went there to make a payment. I can't wait to go back to London

Stay away from this place because A) looks like crap B) elevators and garage smells like smoke all the time C) landlord is not the kindest person D) landlord is unbudging when it comes to rent: LL wants one check only so you have to collect rent from all your roommates and then write a check, which is very tedious compared to online payments. E) rent is expensive for the place F) the apartment is old and the "spa" on top is disgusting and out of order G) this is a big one: the mailing system is complete crap. Packages get stolen and there is virtually no way for mail carriers to deliver mail. There is just a bench in the open where people steal your package. H) the directory doesn't work so if you order pizza or something you have to get down and meet them. Avoid this place.

Do not live here. Terrible experience with charges.

Im pretty sure I was a potential victim of unfair housing law by the manager Susan* read below My first call was to inquire about price, lease duration and vacancy, the manager didnt talk about price until she knew my name (Latino sounding name). As soon as she knew my name she said the price would be $2,600 to $2,800. when i rebuttled to say my last apartment , 2 blocks away, was $2,300, she responded with "well thats the price around here HONEY" Basically bullying me to take her options or go and F*ck myself When my friend called 5 minutes later He was able get an apartment for $2,400 with a 9 month lease... the only difference between me and my friend was the type of name and difference in pitch of voice we are both males, my name is very Latino sounding and the pitch of my voice is low, my friend is also male and has a very american sounding name but Higher pitch voice (He sounds very feminine / he is always mistaken for a women on the phone) basically : i called said my name and get a 12 month lease for $2,600-$2,800/month with no other option 5 min later My friend calls and gets an apartment for $2,400 with a 9 month lease (WTH??!!?) I hope no one has to go through this kind of experience but i would like to know if any one else experienced this with the manager(susan) ...im hoping it was a fluke and not a style of business.. with that being said I direct you to 690 veteran where you will meet the nicest landlady ever MiMi she is the best- she doesnt act like a land lady but like a mom always checking up on you and has the biggest heart... in addition Manager(Susan) appears very friendly and welcoming, Until you sign the lease then she becomes bipolar in her attitude ( some times kinda nice, but mostly Grouchy) Her good days: she is kinda nice Bad Days: if you have a question or concern because something is unclear she responds to you as if you are bothering her (F*ck her and keep asking your questions until you understand everything) *** Your returned security deposite will be returned with all leases names, she will say that she cant put the check in one name but YES she can, all you have to do is tell her and make a letter explaining what you want and she will do it... but she will make it difficult for you!!**** apartment sprinkler broke twice, once at 3am in my closet (she fixed it the next day and carpet cleaned my entire apartment which was the weirdest thing ever cuz she is always a hassle to deal with but did something "nice" for me and the roomates) so make your decision wisely and try different accents and have different genders inquire about apartments see if you notice any difference by the way you are treated

Mixed reviews for this one. Well, you get what you pay for. These apartments are really cheap among the 2bhks you can find within a walking distance to the university. I stayed here for a year and then moved out to wellworth avenue. They were okay enough to let me endure one whole year here, but not good enough to make me extend my lease. Basically I could afford more after that year, and I decided to go to a place I wouldn't be ashamed to show to the people who come to visit me. This apartment complex has everything for your basic needs: Less priced, more spacious apartments, a laundry room on the lowest level, and a trash outlet on every floor. When you move in, everything will be painted and the carpet will be changed fine. The initial deposit is around a thousand bucks, and you will get back around 400 of that, don't expect more. Parking is closed and allotted, but not included in the rent. As I said, you get what you pay for. Everything is good as long as you stay INSIDE the apartment. Its when you go outside your apartment that things get ugly. The building is not maintained well, and from the outside, it looks like some shady place where drug dealers would live. Oh well that reminds me, when I stayed here, there WERE drug dealers who lived on the first floor! Those guys performed robberies in nearby buildings (of course our building was safe since they themselves lived here) and were being searched by the police since years. Finally there was a raid in the building, there was SWAT who positioned themselves on the floor and fired gunshots and caught them and put them in jail. Yeah I know what you're thinking, you can't trust your neighbors here unless you know them from before. The building is a mess, I don't even know if they clean the outside. There is a hot tub on the roof which is always cold. There is no such thing as security in this building, sure, there is a locked entry, but the lock is almost always open for some reason. For all the fanatic people, this building is right next to the graveyard. And the noise, of course the noise. There is at least a party every night! This place has the feeling of a frat house to it, definitely not for people who are looking for a quiet environment. But then the apartments are good, there is a new management now which is definitely wayy better than the reign of Elina who was a fraud and would tell students higher prices than the original to bag in some extra money. The best part about this complex is the maintenance though, I have not seen such amazing maintenance response in any other place. Alberto is awesome!!! I would trust that guy with my life, forget about my apartment. He can fix anything to everything, and was more of a friend than a maintenance guy. He not only would listen to your issues but would also understand your problem and fix it with his heart. Unless you live in a better apartment you don't realize what a crappy place you lived in earlier. When I was at 512 veteran I was not unhappy, but not happy either. The place was liveable for the price. But I would not recommend this apartment complex. If you can afford even a tad bit more, go elsewhere.

I lived here for one year and moved out this summer. The manager was a pain in the --- to deal with. Always postponed stuff and never got things done.
