2009-02-17T21:19:22-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This building is the cheapest on the block to have full kitchens and central heat and air. With that being said, you get what you are paying for.

Westbury Apartments: HPG Management Should Be Ashamed (Not Recommending)

2006-08-14T23:59:11-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The new front door in the lobby is nearly impossible to open because whoever installed it did it wrong. The "PUSH" handle is STILL upside down. Some of the 80 year old tenants will probably have a heart attack trying to open the heavy door.

Management is too cheap to ... [click to read full apartment review]

Westbury Apartments: Full of TRASH (Not Recommending)

2006-07-22T16:20:14-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The door handle for the trash chute on my floor doesn't work so people are just piling the trash in the little area you step in to to open the chute. It's 100 degrees in Hollywood this weekend so I'm sure it'll get really smelly.

Westbury Apartments: Buiding Going To Shit (Not Recommending)

2006-01-29T15:16:23-06:00

From -Anonymous-: So it turns out the reason why the building is turning to shit (disgusting washers & dryers, overflowing trash in lobby, elevator that never works, disgusting carpet and chipped paint in hallway) is because the old manager (who was great) quit and THE NEW MANAGER DOESN'T LIVE HERE. So ofcourse ... [click to read full apartment review]

2006-01-25T00:24:32-06:00

2006-01-16T00:59:17-06:00

From -Anonymous-: And they're still painting the outside of the building to this putrid shade of plum. It used to be a cute yellow. If you run out of credit on your laundry card, forget about it.

2005-04-17T18:30:50-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Walls and floors are very thin. Having guests over was a nightmare due to the parking permits.

2004-11-08T16:20:37-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Well a real elevator man came and it worked for a week but it's defective all over again. The management company HPG needs to flat out buy a new elevator at their expense.

2004-09-24T13:43:56-06:00

From -Anonymous-: When I first moved in, everything seemed fine. Then I noticed the elevator stops on all the wrong floors.
