I lived in Westwood Apt. (4327 8th Ave) for a year. It is a overall ok place to live if you are on a budget. It is near the bus lines, 66,71,72,73 etc. which all go downtown and it is close to the UW, within walking distance. Their rent was $850 for a three bedroom apartment and $800 for a two bedroom apartment when I lived there. I am sure the rent has went up given the fact rents go up every year. The rooms are small, barely fit a twin size bed, a desk, chair and s book self. I didn't have much furniture anyway. The major problem to me was the ants. They come for sweets and whenever I left something sweet unsealed, I found a pile of red ants around it which is so nasty. The manager killed the ants for us upon our request. But they come back after about half a year.
