I cannot in good faith recommend this place to anyone. Although the first time I stayed here was a great experience, the second time was horrible. Both times I got my own room: except the second time they gave me a room with a really high bunk bed with chairs under it and a huge window with no curtain or shades. Last time the heat came on at 6pm and stayed on all night. This time the heat did not come on at all. I was freezing cold the whole night and woke up with a sore throat and cough. On top of this when I arrived at the facility, a woman knocked on my car door not even 30 seconds of me being there saying you cannot park here I’ll put a boot on your car, I explained to her that I am renting a room here tonight and I literally just got here so maybe give me a minute to go inside and get the parking pass. If this wasn’t bad enough, when I left in the morning there were a bunch of little spiders crawling inside of my car from their parking lot. Do yourself a favor and stay far away form this place, pay a little more and get something nicer because your money is not worth it here.
Amazing place to stay, very friendly staff l, nice amenities and good people in the community.
The room I stayed this time was better than last time. It has a mirror and no big fan.The price could be a little bit lower for dorm share and because your policyholders is not flexible as other hotels.The location is great for me to stay visiting UCLA.
Generally it was ok.Convienient location for UCLA campus visiting.If you can improve 2 things,it will be much better: 1- The fan is too big for the small single room.It made noisy sound, not relaxing.Should have a smaller and quieter fan and should have a mirror in the room. 2-should be more trickly about the quiet time. People stay up too late playing game , talking and laughing out side the window. I had a hard time to go to sleep with those noises. I hope you can make the place more pleasant by improving those issues because I have to go back to Westwood many times in the future.
Guests are friendly and staff as well. Need more clarity or choices with bed options

Sorry to see you had a less than great experience. Can you please let us know how we can improve?

We are sorry that you had a poor experience this time. Unfortunately we have no control over spiders outdoors. Did you ask at the front desk about heat, a space heater or extra blankets? As you have seen we do have different rooms with different styles and many people actually love the loft style room with the seating area underneath.
